I remember running the streets doing anything I could to survive this song played in my ears every day. Deaths of friends, seen terrible situations. I'm sober now clean from drugs. I'm a father. I'm so grateful I'm still alive. This song kept me going in those times. Crazy to listen to it know an have flashbacks of all those days in hell.
@@hushup8692 so why you think the industry didn't promote his music? He was signed to a major label and they ain release 100s of his tracks, its because music like this isn't what they want to be promoted
This song brings me back to a time and a place in my life that can never be replicated, duplicated, or lived again. Music is a Time Machine. Still one of the hardest tracks ever in 2023.
Polo is a legendary, I'd say premier-esque producer. They don't make any music like this at all anymore. It's sad because rich boy was criminally underrated. And he actually had something more meaningful to say Then the typical nonsense.
you could hear the hunger in his voice man!!!!! he was country as hell but man i respected it and this is coming from an east coast dude. His debut was dope as hell
Us Southerners is very misunderstood the south is where it's at mane we get slept on very hard and overlooked we may not have the appeal of a NY or LA or Chicago but it's that southern hospitality in us that make us who we are and we known hustlers my G
I still listen to this record. Gives me goosebumps and chills still. Some of the realest shit said on a record ever since Pac died. Artists dont make songs like this anymore, and if there are rappers out there making inspirational music like this, they get pushed to the side. We have to wake the fuck up because just like Polow said on here, all we do is play right into the Devil's hands. Honest, soulful, inspirational music right here. Salute Rich Boy!
Song really touches me like I want to Cry for some reason.... All I can think about every time I get chills..... I think about my kinfolk lock down and my potnas and Uncle in the Pen... And my dead homies... Song is too Deep.. Rich Boy is so under rated its ridiculous... This is the reason you should at least Buy or have this album!!!
Martin Lee Anderson's case was so alarmingly sad. I cried when I finally realized and researched who he was referring to. This song is seriously underrated.
I spent 10 years in the pen ive been freed man for 3 now still on parole this song go hard love the message trust me peeps you get one swing at this thing called life dont make mistakes like i did all yall stay blessed
Rich boy we still feeling you in 2021. Talking about poverty we understand. We suffering all across the country from Brooklyn to Alabama bro. Stand tall rich boy!!!
Don't think all Americans are the same, the general public knows what you are going through every day when you wake up over there. I think about 65% or more of Americans want our soldiers home, you guys have been fighting over there since before the Jesus days, our soldiers being there is not going to affect a war that's been going on before America was even born as a nation. You are a true warrior to live in a place like that, I know that, some Americans know that. Some of us have respect for you no matter what your religion is or where you live. A true intelligent person understands without judgment of any kind. Respect from Alabama :)
I remember when I was 12 yrs old and I first heard this song it was only for the beat. Here it is now that I'm 20 yrs old and I'm deciphering what this song is talking about. Song has a deep message if you listen to it with a clear mind
3/2021 still here! One of the greatest songs in my era growing up. Shit I used to have this on replay 10-15 times in a row back in the day. GET THIS PAPER!!
I love at the end of the album Rich boys says that he wants to say thank you to anybody that got the CD wether it was the bootleg or CD you can tell rich boy ain't tripping he just wants his voice to be heard he's a sick ass rapper
back in the day I use to only like this song for the beat and the flow but looking back I realize I was to young to see the problems with the world but now we done put a few years on us same shit happening we just got some sense now to see this world fucked and it's always been fucked up and always will be . anyways this song makes more since coming back and playing this ever now and then to remind me the world is a fucked planet
Love is my motivator... When the money gone you gone... But love abides forever... But RICH BOY spitting the truth... And the truth never dies... Keep this shit in rotation... R.I.P Trayvon Martin and all the other brothers killed due police brutality... What goes around comes back around... Remember that.. =_=..✊🏿BLACK NATION✊🏿...
I was 19 years old and a college sophomore the year this song came out. I'm sure every person of color can relate to this because nearly all of us had an unpleasant encounter with law enforcement 😢
This is literally one of the realest and hungriest tracks I've ever heard in my life. Rich Boy shoulda got way more respect in the game man
Facts!!
He was too real to sellout
Thats how i feel !
thats the truth brother
He's inconsistent
One of the most slept on songs ever...this song was and still is the truth

Indeed
People need to show some more respect to rich boy as a rapper this song is a classic

Kavon Derrell he didn't sell out so he was slept on but real ones like me and people in the comment section know the real
This is true Hiphop. Addressing real issues affecting our people.
I remember running the streets doing anything I could to survive this song played in my ears every day. Deaths of friends, seen terrible situations. I'm sober now clean from drugs. I'm a father. I'm so grateful I'm still alive. This song kept me going in those times. Crazy to listen to it know an have flashbacks of all those days in hell.
Always so underappreciated. So glad I randomly just thought of this song. I used to play this track over and over
Exactly the same here
Same so slept on
This song was way ahead of its time
And right on time.
The industry dont wanna hear music like this.. they wanna hear about: Money, bitches && drugs. RichBoy was speaking the truth.
What ? The industry has music like this. Dude needed promotion . Do yal know the industry ? Just he talking
truth
@@hushup8692 so why you think the industry didn't promote his music? He was signed to a major label and they ain release 100s of his tracks, its because music like this isn't what they want to be promoted
This song brings me back to a time and a place in my life that can never be replicated, duplicated, or lived again.
Music is a Time Machine.
Still one of the hardest tracks ever in 2023.
shit always goes hard i was actually mutual friends with martin he lived right down the road from me that shit was so fucked up what they did to him
A men time doesn't stop but a good song brings the past back even if just for a few min God bless bro.
Whoever produced this madness is a legend.
Polow da Don!
Polo At 2:28
Polo is a legendary, I'd say premier-esque producer. They don't make any music like this at all anymore. It's sad because rich boy was criminally underrated. And he actually had something more meaningful to say Then the typical nonsense.

This song is a classic for sure and was picked as the Jam Of The Week on MTV Jams back in 2007. That's how I always remember the song.
I remember it being jam of the week. They played it every hr. The good times.
Polow da Don really killed this beat. Everything about this song is hard! RIP Pooh Bear!
One of the HARDEST beats I ever heard
This song still gives me the chills!
He was very slept on SMH
💯💯
Ain't it crazy how just about everyone listening still gets chills listening to how good this is
This song is untouchable. Still relevant till today. We don’t owned anything. We all gonna die and leave them here 👌🏾
Rich Boy will forever be etched in hip hop's heart with this song alone.
Song really touches me like I want to Cry for some reason.... All I can think about every time I get chills..... I think about my kinfolk lock down and my potnas and Uncle in the Pen... And my dead homies... Song is too Deep.. Rich Boy is so under rated its ridiculous... This is the reason you should at least Buy or have this album!!!
Lmao!!!! Don't tell nobody, but me too, a few thug tears lol
"they shipping boys off, the fighting in Iraq/ got soldiers in that war that ain't never gonna make it back" - damn, too real.

Martin Lee Anderson's case was so alarmingly sad. I cried when I finally realized and researched who he was referring to. This song is seriously underrated.
