So while it may have been easy to predict that the New Jersey rapper may not have a bevy of flows, the amalgamation of Young Thug and Tory Lanez in his voice at least hinted at more formulaic ballads that could chart. Both ‘TRAP QUEEN’ and ‘AGAIN’ relied on the same premise and musical notes. Many of his hit tracks recycled the same melody–albeit to heights of dizzying success.Īll-too-familiar in 2015 were cries of ‘YEAHH BABY’ on a sugary, trap-influenced beat. The cracks began to show early in Fetty Wap’s rise to stardom. With no credible guest appearances or emerging beats to rap, Homie fell off because of bad label dealings and alienating relationships. He’s been basically left out of the ATL loop for years now, and that can’t be contributed to his lack of involvement with Quality Control–as Thug and Future have proved to be successful otherwise. Thug called him ‘Bitch Homie Quan’ and never collaborated with him again. Young Thug apparently grew tired of Rich’s act when Rich said he wanted to do more than just Rich Gang.

According to rapper Jackboy and others, Homie was notorious for being late to send guest verses or not sending them at all. When Rich Homie returned in 2017 with BACK TO THE BASICS, his only feature was someone named Cyko and employed just 3 notable Atlanta producers. He refused to release a song for all of 2016 because of it–as Migos blew up off ‘BAD AND BOUJEE’ and Thug transcended hip-hop with his JEFFREY mixtape cover. Rich Homie admittedly signed a bad deal without having lawyers review–causing him to receive minuscule payment for records like ‘FLEX’ or ‘TYPE OF WAY’. His melodic, street-inspired rhymes almost seemed superior to his contemporary Future at times, yet Quan’s independent record label T.I.G. YG’s ‘MY N***A’ was another hit that benefitted from the Atlanta crooner’s skill set. But that was always the issue with Rich Homie Quan: most of his sauce was spread on other artist’s tracks.
