Young Thug recently took to social media to reflect on his complicated relationship with the late Rich Homie Quan, emphasizing that his loyalty remained steadfast despite years of separation. He posted a nostalgic photo of the duo from their early days, captioning it with “Never switched on u brada always road with u what happened,” revealing a blend of nostalgia and regret.
Their partnership, which flourished within the Rich Gang collective, peaked in 2014 with the hit “Lifestyle.” However, as both artists carved out their solo careers, they gradually distanced themselves. The unexpected passing of Rich Homie Quan, legal name Dequantes Devontay Lamar, has left fans mourning the lack of reconciliation between the two.
Thug expressed sorrow over not having reconciled sooner, sharing that both he and Quan had matured into their own careers. In a livestream with Adin Ross, he discussed wishing for a chance to repair their bond. Notably, in the days leading up to Quan’s death, he hinted at a desire to reconnect.
Young Thug has continued to honor Rich Homie Quan’s legacy by including their collaborations in performances, such as at Coachella, ensuring that the impact of their partnership remains alive in the hearts of fans.
