I was a rookie sports reporter covering the MSU football Rose Bowl run in LA. That year, Rich Homie Quan’s “Some Type of Way” became the team’s anthem and he joined them after the dub. I got to interview Rich in the the locker room. Gone too soon. SMH Rest well, brotha. 🙏🏽 pic.twitter.com/vNOQlfp2A0

RIP Rich Homie Quan, 1/2 of the greatest group since Outkast, the melodic genius who never stopped going in, who sang & wrote hooks as memorable as anything to ever chart, pop masterpieces straight out the mud. An era-defining ATL all-timer. The tour dates forever locked in. pic.twitter.com/QRNlRsd8f8
