His career started like many-in the bedroom. However, it didn’t take very long before he went from Mobile DJ, to Club DJ, to Radio DJ. Rippin’ Rich as he was known in 1988, got on the air as a mixshow DJ on then Rhythmic Top 40 station KNRJ – Energy 96.5. As one of the members of the Mixmaster Five, Rippin’ Rich was rockin’ the Houston Airwaves with a variety of House, Freestyle, Hip-Hop, and pop.

In 1993, he joined 104.1 KRBE under then PD Tom Poleman and MD Paul “Cubby” Bryant and started the first in-house mixshow called The Beat. Dropping “Rippin” and just by going under DJ Rich, he continued his radio mixshow persona and style to the airwaves. Later that year, DJ Rich would pick up mixshows in Austin-KHFI and San Antonio-KTFM.



In 1995, he left Texas for New York City to work for Tommy Boy Records and the very next year, he re-joined Tom and Cubby at WHTZ-Z100 as their mix show DJ. There DJ Rich would continue the mixshow Planet Z until 2000.



In 2000, due to the Clearchannel merger, DJ Rich was moved to sister station and New York Dance leader 103.5 WKTU. Then PD, Frankie Blu and MD Jeff Z changed DJ Rich’s name to The Riddler and DJ Riddler was born.
