Rich Homie Quan: Remembering the Late Atlanta Artist

Rich Homie Quan has been gone for just under two weeks and fans already have new music from the late Atlanta artist. He released his first posthumous track “Song Cry” this week.

The Emotional Journey of “Song Cry”

The track’s cover art shows the “Lifestyle” rapper sporting a green and Black silk blazer with birds surrounding him, often used to signify someone who has passed into the afterlife. The actual record is deeply personal and he even acknowledged that fans often didn’t take his music seriously.

“I had to put on my shades to hide these tears/ And I don’t pop on the gram ’cause that’s how guys get killed/ Let me roll my weed so I can fake my feelings/ This lifestyle I live, real, I can’t fake this here,” he crooned in the chorus. “This a song cry/ I know you hear that sh*t/ Listen to the song cry/ You gotta feel that sh*t,” Quan added in the post-chorus. In his verse, he raps about seeing his homie die, being in a “sticky situation” in Canada, and more outpouring of his emotions.
