The American DJ and television host Peter Rosenberg is currently said to have a net worth of $600,000, which he earned through his years of hosting radio, television programs, and several other projects centered on the hip-hop industry.
He was born in Maryland to a Jewish Capitol Hill staffer father and a public-school teacher mother, who raised him alongside his siblings and sent him to Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School before enrolling at the University of Maryland.
Peter’s interest in hip-hop was sparked by his older brother, who was also a fan of the music genre.
He was also influenced by early 1990s hip hop songs such as DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince’s second single Parents Just Don’t Understand from their second album, He’s the DJ, I’m the Rapper.
Peter became involved in several underground hip-hop programs because he was more passionate about the music genre.
Even as a freshman at the University, he was a hit on a campus-wide program called From Dusk ‘Til Dawn.
This was his first on-air program, and it marked the start of his career as a radio host. At the time, his DJ name was “PMD,” which stood for “Peter From Maryland.”
