  • Rich the Kid. In the mid 2010's, he was a name you couldn't go without hearing. He was the king of networking, the "4th Migo" and the man behind hits like "Plug Walk" and "New Frezer". I personally used to be a huuuuge fan of him. And I was surprised how much his starpower has declined in recent years. This is the story of how Rich the Kid fell off, and the things that I think he could have changed in order to prevent it!

      @@606Visuals his best songs are solo records. Plus Jay focused on his albums being great vs just hit records. Plus Jay outshine the other guy on the song. He not just saying bs on the song.

    Y’all probably don’t know , but rich managed to pull a feature from an Brazilian artist called MATUE which is like the scale of a Travis Scott but in South America. the song made so much noise and traffic that the servers of Sony music Brasil went down for hours. All from pre sales and pre saves. It made like 5 million views on CZcams on his first 24 hours out. Rich really knows how to move and one thing you can’t take from him he really do not quit at all. I still believe he gon make a really big come back on USA .
