Young Money/Cash Money/Republic After dropping their first eponymous compilation album last summer, Birdman and his Rich Gang — the loose collective of Cash Money and Young Money artists and various famous friends — kickstart their campaign for 2014 by releasing this new single, ‘Lifestyle.’
While there’s no YMCMB presence outside of ad-libs from Baby, who dedicates the track to his late mother, the Rich Gang ringleader takes a back seat and lets two of Atlanta’s rising new stars take the wheel on this groovy record.
Rappers Young Thug sounds even more helium-inflated as he handles the hook and opening verse, before Rich Homie Quan shares his own croaking account of that good life.
“We came straight from the bottom to the top my lifestyle / This is only the beginning / N—- livin’ life like a volcano / And this is only the beginnin’ / I’m on the top of the mountain puffin’ on clouds and n—-s still beggin’,” raps Young Thug on the chorus.
‘Lifestyle’ is produced by London On Da Track, who has previously worked with Young Thug on ‘Baby’ and Rich Homie Quan on ‘They Don’t Know.’
