Collaborations and Solo Career

In the UK, Rishi worked with a number of Asian artists after getting his first break from San-j Sanj (xzecutive), Alex Jethwa & Pankaj Jethwa. He co-produced 10 Asian music albums before working on his first solo album ‘Simply Rich’, which debuted at No 1 in the Asian pop charts in October 2002 and remained in the top 5 for over six months - selling more than 50,000 copies within the UK alone. With ‘Simply Rich’, Rishi was able to fuse urban music and bhangra. The lead single from the album, “Nahin Jeena”, featured ragga MC Don D and up-and-coming vocalist Juggy D, who was later to join the 2Point9 stable.

His second solo release, The Project, included the single Push It Up (Aaja Kuriye), which peaked at No 1 on the BBC Asian Network Chart [1] as well as the Club Asia Essential 20 Chart [2]. However, The Project was considered a commercial failure in the UK, though sales in his main markets of Dubai and India remained relatively strong.
