In interviews, Rich had proudly stated that even though he dropped out of New York University's (NYU) famed Tisch School of the Arts after one month (he accused the faculty of racism),[2] he still made a successful film. This drew criticism from Spike Lee, a Tisch graduate, who accused Rich of being "ignorant".[2][3] Rich's second film, 1994's The Inkwell, received mixed reviews.[1] He has not made another film since. In 2005, Rich re-emerged as the director and screenwriter of the video game, 187 Ride or Die[4] which was not a success. Today, he serves as CEO of Matty Rich Games, a Los Angeles-based gaming company.
