Toot it and shift it

Richie Rich - Wires And Vogues
(From Richard album; 2025)



I've been fiendin' for a new legit choon by Richie Rich after his verse on LARussell & P-Lo's shit, his "rhyme away the pain" incident in LaRussel's backyard and his Splash Bakery live performance. Plz believe Wires And Vogues here will do just nicely as that new legit choon. A grown man's car jam where Richie reflects on life in the rear view mirror. One thing Richie Rich has always had a knack for is rhyming about cars and making them sound like the coolest shit in the world; no mean feat because there's nowt more boring in real world conversation than a bloke telling you about his car. That's the magic of Rap music innit.

After a first listen, his single with 40 was the one that stood out most but this one has grown to be my favorite too.

Not really into Rich like that but after the year he's had with LaRussel I've become a fan. That Side Show song was nuts. A quick primer of his best songs for the streets?

I'm only up on his 90s albums tbh. All of them are worth checking especially Seasoned Veteran.

Some interesting stuff(to me, anyway - I didn't know much about him) in his recent interview with Bootleg Kev
