Quan later formed the Rich Gang group with fellow Atlanta rapper Young Thug, a brainchild of Cash Money Records. The due found success with the single “Lifestyle” in 2014.

Rich Homie Quan’s name was mentioned in Young Thug’s YSL trial this week when witness Lil Woody, real name Kenneth Copeland, attempted to ask Thugger a question about his former collaborator in court. Young Thug laughed off the question and didn’t answer when Woody said on the witness stand, “Thug, did you have an issue with Rich Homie.”
