Roddy Ricch: How to Kill a Rap Career
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 06. 2024
- Roddy Ricch was once one of the most explosive artists in the industry. He first got onto everyone's radar with his MASSIVE hit single "The Box" but didn't follow through with his seemingly "Drake levels" of momentum. However, when diving deeper into the story, you'll understand that his "downfall" isn't what its cracked out to be. And there are a lot of understandable reasons as too why his career would eventually lead to a decline.

Given where he's come from, Roddy has already won in life. He just needs to make smart financial choices, and he's set forever.
its impossible for someone to fall off once they have built a loyal fanbase.
Lil Pump gets average of 5 million streams & 5 million views per song.
(Even when people say he "fell off" hes getting big numbers)

Exactly!!!

Roddy really had the world in his hand man. I remember his 2018 run was insane
*2019 run
@@TheFlowbetter2018-19 run he went crazy af both years
He never had the world in his hands 🤣He's not Jehovah.
2019 was Roddy ,dababy,Young thugs(so much fun) and polo gs year.The box was playing everywhere on repeat, you name it -gyms,clubs,shopping centres .Never seen a song go that viral except blinding lights
@@Ayushmanz yeaa exactly & lil tecca too that ransom song was everywhere. j .cole too cause middle child & the london with young thug. also pop smoke was starting to blow up. 2019 was a very underrated year for music
Roddy didn't make enough music. The talent is definitely there.
I must say that it is really hard to make bangers back to back to back, constantly coming up with new songs that are just as good as the best ones is so much more difficult than people think.
@@Tristan-tj9uz Not really, you have to remember, once you've got it, people want to hear you do you, so as long as you're doing what they love you for you're going to make hit after hit until they get tired or you switch up. Roddy switched up more than once (I'm talking about his style). Look at Die Young, Down Below, Every Season, those songs are came up from the bottom music that everyone loved. He then started talking about a lot of fly sh*t that most people can't relate to so he slowly so a drop when it became repetitive.
Then he made the Box which was a commercial song, he tried the same with Late At Night and High Fashion, it appealed to his TikToker fans but those guys are fickle and will jump on the next thing, so right now he's still trying to make those commercial songs not realising those fans were never going to stay down. Now his core fans have moved on because he lost their interest a long time ago when he traded them in for the quick run. His best bet is either being content with where he is or if he's lucky he can go the Tyga route and make chart music
nigga his music is still fire? thank god he was putting out average shit constsntly
@@hakshustletvnigga that whole first debut album was fire every song, rhe box was mid asf compared to almost every other song on the album?
@@nicoperez9984 I didn't say anything about his first album tho
Having your first major song be a mega hit is the biggest curse in hip hop. It happens throughout history… even recent history. “The Box” “Oouu” “Hot N!gga” huge first major songs that the artists could never recover from. When your first song is epic, it becomes bigger than the artist and the artist will never make another one because having a mega hit is a once in a lifetime thing
I kinda agree with Roddy people are expecting too much from him because people keep sleeping on his actually good music
Panda from desiigner aswell
@@peeron6829 that song was shit😂
Their have been a few artist who broke it but the problem is when all your music sounds the same people already know what to expect. This is why I think Travis will have the number 1 album this year because we don’t know what Utopia is going to sound like
Ballin’ left the chat
As a Roddy fan you just gotta be patient and let him cook
Is my music fire ? I’ll make it one day claim your spot rn
realest shit
W
I think Feed the Streets 3 was a step in the right direction
ive been letting him cook since 2020, ion think hes gonna cook anything good no more
“I will never sell my soul, and I can back that.” That’s simply why he experienced hardship in terms of success in the industry. They don’t play nice with people who refuse to play their games.
stop believin in fairytales lil bro
@@perkshaven huh?
@@perkshaven i don’t think he means literally, I think he means sacrificing authenticity for success
What you’re saying is true, very little know about this. The other clown just called it a fairytale but when you look at what’s going on in the music industry with some big artists with your 3rd eye, you see things ain’t normal. Tory lanez got thrown in jail for shooting Megan but you’ll never know if he did it, all cus he refused to join roc nation( and make the kinda music they want). There’s a bigger picture to this all I gotta say is Roddy made the right choice I’m proud to be his fan
@@perkshavenignorance is bliss. Hard to believe something that seems so unreal
This guy can recover, he just needs to be sober more, handle his money and heal from past issues
💯
i dunno why people say his music is bad his music now it is still good (not at his peak but still good). And he doesn't need to do rlly well and make many songs he is living life lavish.
I think it's actually worse that his music is just okay/average. Because there is such an influx of new talent that if it's not very good or very bad then people just forget about it and move to the next thing.
It’s because his music went from so Amazing to alright so it makes it seem like it was worse than it really is
It was never good, but people were okay with that. We were buying the social media persona instead of the music.
All that sound cloud shit is dying out. No one wants to see 69 yelling the same Spanish word over and over with fat bitch twerking anymore. No one wants to hear Roddy or Travis Scott say a bunch of random shit that doesn’t rhyme in an autotune robot voice.
It was cool back then, but it didn’t last. That’s why the people who make real music without gimmicks will always do better than these flash in the pan type dudes.
His music is bad because it's rushed and don't even sound finished, also it all sounds the exact same. Nothing new, special, of fresh
His music in 2019 had soul and so much energy that isn’t there maybe he was just more hungry in 2019
the problem is the idea that numbers = talent. he still makes good music but fans only care about numbers
fax bruh
Very true 💯
His music is ass, get over it.
numbers equal popularity, which is what the record labels and fans, unfortunately, are looking for! If you can't put out major billboard hits and sells numbers, then you're forgotten now a days!
@@izamalcadosa2951 its really not that simple. My band is at 10m+ streams and 40k+ listeners per month, and we sell out 250-500 cap clubs on tour, meanwhile I know some bands that blew up on Spotify that get 10x as many streams as my music does and can barely get 40 people to come to their shows. Numbers matter but making a real connection with fans and entertaining them live is what gives you real growth/sustainability. No offense but I see so many comments in videos like this from people who really have no clue how the music industry works.
Honestly roddys biggest down fall was not taking advantage and dropping more music when he was number 1 like the baby. He dropped the best album then disappeared like he was Kendrick or Drake
aint they beefing😂
@@itwasntaphasemomm yea it’s actually crazy
@@DocMc-zz9ms bro predicted the beef🤣
Cause he didnt sell his soul
I agree
@@1ONE_LAWproof?

i will never sell my soulllll and i can back that
And i really wanna knoww where you at at
i do feel bad for roddy, the way fans treated him afterwards when bro was just tryna live his life and turn it around for better. i do believe he can make a comeback though his new stuff aint bad
They were not his fans
Nah roddy got to feeling like was Michael Jackson or some shit and didn’t have to drop. Do you know how many different rappers have come out and got on the whole time he decided not to drop? 🤣
Bunch of so called fans, people expect every album to be fire and when it's not they wanna talk shit. Would rather be rich than famous, like the Migos said years ago. Because people switch up so fast, and try to cancel you for any little thing.
Have yall never heard "Down Below"? Scott Storch produced that 4 yrs ago for RR, and that shit still slaps
My favorite song by him.
Imma have to check it out
Everyone knows that song, your not special
@@deniserobinson3738 🤣🤣🤣 Then why you so bothered by my comment? I didn't say I was special, but clearly you know I am😘
@@deniserobinson3738dude above literally doesn't know the song
Last year i went to a Roddy Rich show on Wireless festival, tbh is amazing, he has a band a whole production, most of rappers just have DJs. He said some nice stuff of why he cares about the fans and the show experience. And compared to other rappers that ive seen on the same festival like Lil Baby, Roddy is def more professional. Idk why his career stagnated so fast
Nah you probably seen him in Finsbury Park or Birmingham because I was on the same festival in Crystal Palace waiting for him , he was so late when he comes just sing 3 songs and left the stage …
@@joelpereira4125 was in Finsbury Park
You remembered it wrong, woman
Music industry is a fast paced, ever-changing industry. If you're not constantly churning out hits or keeping yourself in the limelight in some way, you're gonna fizzle out and be forgotten while some young up and comer takes your place. Roddy just doesn't put out enough music to stay relevant and a lot of his latest shit hasn't been up to par compared to his earlier songs. There's also the fact that music as a whole is an industry that relies on creativity and being a creative person, and creativity is something that can come and go as it pleases.
Cuz he choose not to sell his soul ❤
Selena Gomez begging for streams is crazy 😂
bro he still gets 22 million monthly listeners on spotify alone, i wouldnt say he fell off
Compare it to others and he def fell off. Kid Laroi has more and is way younger than him same with NLE and nle ain't nearly as talented
@@student40008 It's funny how you typed that, read it more than twice, and still thought it made sense.
@@_Xtreme_ Get off your knees for Roddy he fell off.
Spotify listeners doesn't mean anything! Putting out Billboard Hits is the number one measuring stick for success and album sells!! NBA Youngboy is another dude that has millions of spotify listeners yet can't put out major billboard hits that get into the top 10 or top 20, in general! Roddy is cool just not a superstar rapper now!
@@izamalcadosa2951true
Give the guy a break... His a great talent and loss of Nispsy hit him bad.
Hope he returns and prayers of strength go out to him regardless.
Why would losing nipsey matter to him lmao. He didn’t even know the muthafucker
Props for dude for at least trying therapy. It doesn’t work for everyone and can take a really long time to find a good therapist, but he tried and that’s what matters
bruh right? at least he made lots of money and made it. people are too critical of artists nowadays they expect people to drop something new every month or something and its ridiculous especially since most fans dont even pay for music these days
@@shaunvalentines4252 that it so true! I mean tbh I listen to everything off YT 🤷🏻♀️ But I do support artists I love by seeing them live as much as possible
@@shaunvalentines4252he did it to himself by bragging about how good that second album was it underperformed that's why artist shouldn't do that if Nipsey was here I'm sure he would have warned him about doing this. It puts you in a box that can crush you if you're not meeting people expectations with the music you're dropping.

Showed Aggression towards fans and got caught up in his emotions with haters
Pathetic

@@BishopNunyabeeswax you cooked him, damn!
He should position himself as a feature artist now, his hooks are always 🔥
Smart
That’s the right move
yeah he did that hook for Gucci Mane's song Pissy
Literally didn't even realize this much time has passed since Roddy got big in the music industry. I honestly hope he digs himself out of this slump. He's got so much untapped potential but seems to let his personal woes get in the way.
I feel like rappers need to understand it’s not about being the game forever or even a long time. If it’s something you want to do then cool, but it’s still a stepping stone
Right and especially in Hip Hop. You have time limit for sure.
@@TopCongoDreamer Lol the issue is most of the guys that are big now, their music will only last for the now. Unless you're a Curren$y with a crazy fanbase, you need to be able to either adapt or have a sound that people just won't get tired of. Drake learned to adapt, Jay-Z has a sound people won't get tired of although he somewhat adapted.
Lil Wayne is a prime example of having a sound that people will eventually get tired of, Migos too. Lil Baby might be one of the few from his era that will survive and it's not only because of the music but the brand he's build around his image but as he gets older, that "young and being fly" shit will die down and he'll need to adapt just like Meek has needed to grow up from the young reckless street n*gga.
I agree. Not everyone can be a Drake or Jay Z (and I don't listen to both)
New generation rappers falling off make even ones like Fetty Wap actually look good because at least he had that evergreen album
@@PlayWitYoBitxh Idk anything about YB but I would argue it was a quality and repetitive issue in regards to Wayne because no one drops more frequently than Curren$y over the last decade yet his fan base has only grown. Of course, the scale level is different with Wayne but Drake drops frequently or he's always there, far more frequent than Jay and Drake run is getting up there. I always personally felt like Wayne had more mediocre music than top tier level music. Once in awhile he'd cross over to that top tier space but more often than not, I feel like it was a toss up.
@@PlayWitYoBitxh Drake dabbles in a variety of music although I will only really listen to his rap stuff like Gold Roses, Lemon Pepper Freestyle, Is There More etc... Also, I think you're right in terms of having your own fanbase and carving out your lane but if your goal is to be one of the driving forces in the game and you're not that then you're irrelevant in relation to your goals. Wayne is irrelevant currently, he doesn't shape trends, sounds, fashion or lifestyle choices like he used to, now that's the other young guys like Lil Baby, even Drake has that influence and he's been in the game for a minute.
As for Roddy, if he doesn't have a solid fanbase who are all these people that are rocking with him? Where are all these YT streams and tens of millions of streams coming from? How is he able to continuously get tours and bookings? That's all I want to know because he's clearly still outdoing 99% of rappers out there, how is that possible without a fanbase.
"I will never sell my soul, and I can back that."
“He realized how truly fickle life can be. It was then he joined a gang.” LOL
People gotta remember tho that he experienced something very few rappers have , right when he was getting big and his album was on top COVID hit America & put the ENTIRE WORLD ON HOLD , he wasn’t even able to do a Tour for his album while it was hot 🔥, so really everybody’s mind was on other stuff besides music not just him

don fell off too @@juswolf22

@@TruthSpeaker4 alot of people do, but it's cool to say you don't.
@@Zcen-uv9lf I hear it alot, but okay
Yall remember when he was a 2020 president candidate?
The box is probably one of the catchiest songs I’ve ever heard - 4 years later and it’s still in my playlists 🔥
He is letting the critiques get into his head if he focus on music and believe in himself he wouldnt drop 1 album every 2 years scared of how people might react , yes he didnt deserve the reactions but he is gladly taking it in the comments , interview, and anywhere beside music..
The music industry is saturated now and you can be hot now and replaced by another artist the next day its important to drop the best u can consistently and build connection with your real fans..
He could really be going through something. Wish him all success & clarity.
I always thought his drop in numbers had something to do with his safety and laying low. If I remember correctly, he was real close to becoming a victim of gun violence when a spot he was at got shot up not took long after he tagged it on IG. I could be mistaken, but I wish Roddy the best
'The Box' is an absolute hip hop banger. I also loved the features with post malone on 'cooped up' and 'wow' and on Da Babys 'Rockstar'.
video title just for uploader to make money
literally nobody thinks roddy ricch is less than succesful and well est.
I'll be real, the numbers may not be where it was at his peak but the music isn't trash either, he actually makes quality music lol A lot of people just moved on but he doesn't need a song like Box or Die Young to be successful. You have guys like Curren$y that have core fans and do better than most artists. People are forgetting, he's still outperforming 99% of artists even at this point but his early music did well because it resonated with people and hit home hard. Anyone from that environment can relate to his early music heavy. The issue is, he shouldn't force that if it isn't his reality anymore, it's like listening to Jeezy still talking about Yay as if he's still in the streets lol it doesn't sound good.
@PlayWitYoBitxh I think Roddy actually has that, I just think he isn't content with it, he wants to be peak Roddy forever, Curren$y is another one with a core fan base and can eat forever and I'm Roddy could but he's not content, someone like Curren$y or as you said YB can be content with their fanbase.
Also, hell no lol Jeezy needs to stop, enough of the whipping talk, we know he ain't in the streets anymore and we know what he used to do, can't talk about the same ish forever and expect his early fanbase to still be there. All of us have graduated from the streets and have properties and sh*t and so does Jeezy he should be talking about the stuff he's doing now.
@PlayWitYoBitxh I'm not gonna mention that rat you mentioned but Roddy Chase the bag, Die Young, Every Season, Down Below, Fucc it up, Ricch Vibes, none of that was because of the industry. As for saying that rat outsold him, well then by your logic Durk isn't relevant because the rat also outsold Durk.
If you're comparing him to when he released The Box, of course, he would appear to be irrelevant but the guy is still out here dopping songs getting millions of views, he's still getting 21 million streams a month on Spotify, how is that falling off lol To put it into perspective, Durk is seen as one of the hottest things right now, he only gets 10 million more streams on spotify than Roddy, Jeezy only gets 4 million monthly listeners, NBA youngboy only gets 18 million listeners so Roddy gets more listeners than both of them.
That's why I said you guys are comparing him to his absolute peak, if we're not speaking relatively and just speaking in general, he's still one of the biggest names in the game.
@PlayWitYoBitxh I never said he's hot, I said he's still outdoing most of these rappers. Hot is Lil Baby, again I'm not going to mention that rat you keep mentioning but after this he'll fall off, people only wanted to hear what the rat had to say based on current events.
And doing 21 million a month on spotify alone not including Tidal, Apple Music and other platforms means he's seeing hundreds of thousands at the very miminum every month off of streaming alone, not too many artists can say that and that doesn't include if he has a deal with these platforms which isn't unheard of meaning a higher payout ratio.
If he was doing a million per video, 600k streams a month or some sh*t like that, I'd agree with you but if doing tens of millions of streams a month is falling off while still doing shows getting paid better than most, then I think a lot of the artists you think are doing well would rather be falling off exactly like Roddy 😂
@@hakshustletv Roddy aint doing better than most rappers, thats pure cap, and he def fell off. The streets/crips don't fucc with him no more, hes a sellout. Get your face out his butt
@@hakshustletv 10-20m streams a month does not payout 6 figs per month lol.
He said it himself on the box. "I will necer sell my soul." Thats why he fell off because he never gave his soul to the industry.
truesay
He fell off because everyone is tired of that low effort autotune SoundCloud shit. Those days are over. People want real music again.
@@amandahugenkiss you funny lmao
He took too much time off after the success of that album when he should've capitalized off it. He was supposed to keep his name hot. If he didn't want to drop his own stuff he could've did features or something. Can't just go ghost like you Kendrick when you haven't build up that cache
No he took to long bc he wanted to he dumb and not capitalize of his hit album
Roddy didn’t fall off. His momentum slowed down.
Which led to his fall off
Yeah like he waited until end of 2021 to drop a mid album like come on bro

He never sold his soul 🎉
nah its the back shot guy
he still has 22m monthly listenres on spotify what you talking bout downfall
Noone talks about him anymore u can be very popular and still have fell of
@@cfcverbalistnah he didnt fell off hes just not mainstream anymore
Monthly listeners doesn't mean anything majority of those people probably subbed during his hype and never unsubscribed that happens
He had more b4
The problem with Roddy was that he waited too long to release his following album after his huge debut album and the following album didn’t even sound as complete and good as his debut album which adding that he was losing a lot of momentum already gave even more of a reason for people to hate
bro got 21 mil monthly listeners bro is chilling
Bro gets 20mln streams a month, bro has NOT fallen off, he just ain't releasing stuff anymore
Because of the negative feedback on Instagram
“I will never sell my souuul” yet he has the one eye symbolism on his album cover
In my opinion, Roddy hasnt fallen off. every single feature and song he has released in the past maybe, 7-8 months has been fire.
I listen to roody every time, he steady building .. He needs a big feature
i actually love roddy ricch icl. i think live life fast and feed the streets 3 aren’t his greatest pieces of work but aren’t bad at all either. there’s some great songs on them
I get llf but feed tha streets 3 was an actual good project with good music
I honestly thought that his last 2 albums werent that bad, they def didnt top his debut but i enjoyed a lot of songs on both albums. I'd say hes pretty consistent and i dont understand why people hate on him so much. Think hes just having fun and trying to get that bag, never thought of him as a numbers guy.
he was def a numbers guy, dude was dropping hit after hit 2019-2020. He still has the talent, I feel like he just got too complacent
Is my music fire ? I’ll make it one day claim your spot rn
Please excuse me was generic. LLF was when he start branching out. FTS3 was a lot more personal. It's all about your purpose in listening to the music. A lot of people seem to not care for meaningful music so its not surprising to me that people are hating on his current work. As a artist hes only getting better imo.
@@prodbyryan808 Yeah because '' blue cheese'' and ''aston martin truck'' are such deep songs, right?
Covid screwed him Dropped a classic album and couldn’t tour.
People are way too quick to say someone fell off
It's been 2 years
I feel having your first album and first few single be major !! And big time makes that sophomore curse a lot more likely to happen and people want those same hits on the next album and that pressure can cause what happen to Roddy who had to go back to that Fed The Streets flow to come back I still think Roddy can continue to be great he has all the potential
Theres so many rappers we never heard from again but all it takes is one hit song that could change that
First video I’ve sewn of yours, and it’s fire! Keep up the sick work! 🔥🔥
Just to tell you a french youtuber named Frère Castor did a video having the exact same thumbnail but in french 6 days ago.
Shout out to Louaista for almost getting thru the whole script flawlessly. That “conjure” in the last minute sounded very teleprompted lol
Now this is where Song Writers come in, big players hits like Ariana grande, Rihanna and Taylor Swift were not written by them but the problem with Rap is using ghost writers can be even considered a crime.
Very true
He didn't go demonic. He made the right decision. God bless him
Honestly, I will make the argument that an artist performing live should put on a show when performing and not just minimum effort in other genres of music the artist that put on good performances tend to gain more traction and respect from their fan base I think rap artist should definitely be held to a higher standard for their performances
He still making hits to me
Man literally has a huge trending song with Gucci Mane and Nardo Wick as this video is coming out. Roddy is still doing major features, let him live.
His first buzz wasn't because of TikTok. Pre-covid almost no-one was on that app compared to the know insane lockdown numbers
Thats what happens when you don’t sell your soul respect to him
His talent is hollow, and his musical trademark isn't solid enough for him not to drop music consistently
"The Box" is a tune you have to listen to about 1000 times before it can get out of your head.
man thats crazy he had so much potential
"Had" past tense😂
Dude not even 26 he got hella time
I just found this account today and I love it! Subscribed!! 😎👑
This is why rappers like Eminem, tupac, Cole, kendrick keep the title of greatest by dropping tracks close to the range they peak in, the styles they good at and not running for number making hits but instead making music so good that it makes numbers
I always think about how artists like future weren't A list in the early 2010s and found an audience with newer generations. If you fall off you shouldn't just stop right there
You guys are running too fast for no reason, now it's like 3 months with no songs? He disappeared. Didnt make a hit in one month? Fell off.
Chill, let the artits create. Im sure all of you have many artists you love, focus on others and enjoy him when he puts stuff out goddamn, you fcking fastfood consumers, art needs time
fax, he even said that in an interview bruh, on his wikipedia
I would hate to be a celeb, social media is such a weird place with abunch of entitlement.
In my opinion he’s still talented and has a unique sound
Fan of roddy ricch music hope he makes comeback took 2 long drop sophomore album even though didn't like it
He kinda made a comeback with the post malone song
I remember when he released the box, that was how I found his music. I loved the album please excuse me for being anti social. One of my faves to this day! I hope to see him come back from this. He is talented
At least he didnt sell his soul!! Win win
Roddy fell off bc he dropped a great project in 2019 then took way to long to drop and when he did it wasn't as good as his 2019 album
Is that the one with "Down Below" on it?
rule number one: never outshine the master
You sound like a hater waiting to hate 😂
They wanna make an example out of anyone who dares rap the line “ I will never sell my soul, you can back that “
For real bro like he’s still making good music, just numbers ain’t adding up they really attacked my boy for saying that
Man I feel so sorry for him, I really hope he gets back on track soon
The difference between him and lil baby was that lil baby was still doing features, did a collab album with Durk, and killing a Drake feature right after My Turn. Even though lil baby’s last album was hot garbage he still wasn’t getting the amount of hate Roddy got because he had kept working after that debut album. I just wished Roddy would’ve took the lil baby route.
Baby came out b4 too. So he was already established when my turn dropped. And his catalog was already good since he had mega hits like drip too hard an close friends from 2017. U would have to compare roddy with someone who came up in 2019 like polo or tjay
@@sergekoffibeats you right, but the only reason why I compared him to lil baby because he was hotter than the other 2 niggas you just named. And to be honest Feed the streets = Harder than ever. Feed the streets 2= Street Gossip. Please Excuse me for being anti social = My Turn. I feel like their albums/mixtapes equal honestly
Roddy took feature route but most rappers been removing his verse.
Lil baby ain't even from Cali yet gets more respect in LA than Roddy do....
roddy still up da baby has the biggest fall off ive ever seen
Dababy has a new song getting a lot of radio play right now.
Clearly he was dealing with personal issues behind the scenes he probably just needs a break, recharge then come back and prove everyone wrong. Definitely have to have thick skin in the industry I'm rooting for him
Roddy Rich gained prominence during Nipsey Hustles final run.
I never really liked him but hearing his background, he gots my respect
Everybody can’t make trap music or repetitive music all the time and last in the industry.
his real downfall started with the animan trend on TikTok with his song
I’ve always said. The melody is there. If he hits some clever wordplay, he’s golden. No yes men around him.
Roddy first project was solid af. No skips frfr.
Roddy def hasn't flopped, he still making numbers, internet so quick to make everyone a flop
The truth is he's lettin all that shit get to his head, he should block all distractions and focus on his music career.
He will return, i can feel it, and when he does, the haters will know.
Fire video man
He'll be alright. We all had at least one year in our careers where we didn't do as good as the previous year. He human just like you Louaista. If the CZcams Algorithm changed tomorrow, and your channel ended up taking a huge hit because of it, people would start making videos about how Louaista fell off. So, give the nigga Roddy Ricch a break.
derrick rose of the rapgame
"I WILL NEVER SELL MY SOUL" RoddyRich
Dude making a living from class presentations 😂😂
Honestly speaking... Aston Martin Truck was actually a good song
Feed the streets 2 is one of my favorite albums. I feel like he could come thru any time and I’d be happy
Roddy ricch has beautiful eyes jus sayin
Never heard anyone reference The Box as a tik tok song, that was just a hit that was also on tik tok. Also his second album to live life fast wasn't that bad, his odd personality just got in his way.
