His career had modest beginnings—starting as a production assistant at MTV, he later became a Producer in the On-Air Promotions Department and created the cable network's seminal hip-hop show Yo! MTV Raps (with Peter Dougherty), and directed other projects for them, including the infamous black-and-white rants starring then-unknown chain-smoking Comedian Denis Leary.
