    How I first heard about him: James Franco's character in Spring Breakers is based entirely off of Riff Raff. What I know now -- he's from Houston, is tight with Snoop, sounds just like Paul Wall, and is pretty damn clever/ funny. I usually keep up on Houston rap and somehow I completely missed this guy -- I don't really like his sound that much, but he's a legit superstar. Some of his tracks are fun, but I haven't heard a home run from the videos i've listened to so far.

    What I vaguely remember is that he was almost Vanilla Ice level crap, but it's clear he has a lot of respect in the Rap world.

    So what's up with this guy?

    NSFW language/ etc.

    Not a fan.
    He's very hit and miss.
    You either like him a lot and praise his unique style, or you hate him because he's weird as ****.

    Tyler the Creator is hit and miss too.

    I mean going on the vid above alone -- Snoop and Riff Raff are a solid comedy duo -- the comments on the eagle and the goat at the end are classic.

    He's big time now. Spits a couple of verses on this Far East Movement track.

    Far East movement fizzled out after 2012. Nobody cares about that group anymore.

    I don't think someone that most people have never heard of could be considered a superstar even under the most loose definition of "superstar" imaginable.

    Yet Riff Raff defies the odds and is that superstar.
