Atlanta rap was founded by artists like Andre 3000 and Big Boi with Outkast, and Goodie Mob - in the later years, you had Lil Jon, Gucci Mane, Ludacris, Young Jeezy, T.I., Future and more, paving the way for artists like Quavo, Takeoff, Offset, Migos, Travis Scott, Lil Yachty, 21 Savage, Gunna, Lil Baby, Peewee Longway, Roscoe Dash, Playboi Carti, and more to flourish as trap music superstars. But one name is often not shouted as loudly as the others - Rich Homie Quan - the NBA YoungBoy of his generation.

Rich Homie tragically passed away on September 5th, 2024 - in this video we’ll remember his legacy. From his first hit ‘Type of Way’ to his collaborations with YG, Jeezy, Travis Scott (Mamacita on Days Before Rodeo), and his Rich Gang days with Young Thvg, teaming up with the Cash Money, Young Money, YMCMB collective (Birdman, Lil Wayne, Tyga, Nicki Minaj, and Drake) ‘Rich Gang’ to span the hit song ‘Lifestyle’ and the mixtape ‘Tha Tour’ - Rich Homie has had a legendary career - and we will dive into his life, legacy, and the music he has left behind.
