Rich Homie Quan Before His Death on Young Thug, Birdman & The Dark Cloud- It’s Up There Podcast (REWIND)

About this episode

Rich Homie Quan discusses his career, collaborations, and challenges in the music industry with host Loon.

Rich Homie Quan sits down with Loon for one of his most honest conversations ever — Young Thug, Birdman, Rich Gang, the “dark cloud” over his career, and what fans never fully understood. In this full episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Rich Homie Quan opens up about the rise, the money, the music, and the moments that changed everything. Quan speaks on creating “Type of Way,” going from major show money to a painful industry slowdown, his legal battle with TIG, and how the business side of music affected his momentum. He also speaks honestly about Young Thug, missing the creative chemistry they had in the studio, the Rich Gang era with Birdman, and why he felt the business was not handled the way it should have been. This conversation hits different now as fans continue to revisit Quan’s life, legacy, relationship with Young Thug, and the questions surrounding what he was carrying behind the scenes. Loon and Quan also talk about YFN Lucci, Yo Gotti, Jeezy, Lil Baby, Drake, Vlad, DJ Akademiks, media, fame, women, money, ego, and why getting back on after success can be harder than getting on the first time.
