Christian Rich are a producer and DJ duo consisting of twin brothers Taiwo Hassan and Kehinde Hassan.

Under the guidance of Pharrell Williams and Shae Haley of N.E.R.D, they worked with Diddy, Lupe Fiasco, J. Cole and others. Paying the favor back they introduced Pharrell and Earl Sweatshirt, which birthed the song "Burgundy" off of Earl's debut album Doris. The duo signed with Warner/Chappell Music Publishing and have produced on multiple #1 albums.

In 2013 they contributed to Drake's #1 Billboard album Nothing Was the Same on the intro of "Pound Cake" which features Jay Z and co-produced a song for Childish Gambino's Because the Internet. They produced four tracks for Earl Sweatshirt's #1 Rap Billboard album Doris ("Chum", "Centurion", "Molasses", "Knight"), produced on J. Cole's Platinum, #1 Billboard album Born Sinner ("Sparks Will Fly") and also produced two songs for Chris Brown's album X ("When I Love Ya" and "Something Special").

Christian Rich has also toured the world DJing in Paris' Social Club, Munich's P1, Miami's Bardot, Michigan's Electric Forest Festival, and many other notable venues. When asked about their versatility in music, Kehinde puts it simply that they are "designers who are popular in designing music". The brothers host Christian Rich Radio on Dash 1 on Dash Radio.

The brothers were born in Chicago and raised in Nigeria, and are currently based in Los Angeles.
