If you type in “riff raff” on Google, one of the first suggestions that pop up is “riff raff teeth.” Looking up someone’s teeth is not necessarily the first thing you would think to search, but if it pops up, you are obviously obligated to see for yourself what Google finds so intriguing about Riff Raff’s teeth. Google Images supplies you with a multitude of pictures of his “aquaberry shark teeth,” which look pretty much as you would expect them to — Riff Raff shows off his blue-tinted, diamond-covered grills, sharpened to look like shark teeth.
This isn’t even the most intriguing part of Riff Raff, the Internet-famous rapper who is known for his bizarre Vines and his alter ego, JODY HiGHROLLER, on Twitter. At some point in your college career, you have probably heard his songs “TiP TOE WiNG iN MY JAWWDiNZ” or “DOLCE & GABBANA,” two of his most popular tracks. If not, you might have somehow stumbled across a photo of a blue husky — none other than JODY HUSKY, Riff Raff’s beloved dog that he dyed blue for a short period of time. The Daily Gamecock asked Riff Raff some questions so you don’t have to. If you’re still lost as to who this shark-teeth-clad, dog-dyeing guy is, you can catch him at Music Farm this Saturday.
