Ralo addressed the criticism he garnered after he live streamed Rich Homie Quan’s funeral in South Fulton on September 17, 2024. Just days prior, on September 5, the late rapper’s girlfriend discovered him unresponsive in his Atlanta residence. The official cause of death is yet to be confirmed at the time of writing.
Following the funeral, Ralo expressed on social media his discontent regarding the backlash over streaming the service and burial site on Instagram Live. He also questioned why there was no condemnation towards those who chose not to attend Rich Homie Quan’s funeral.
“If you don’t want to see me on the internet then you know what you got to do. Get off the internet b***h. ‘Cuz I ain’t. Soon as a n***a say something good about somebody, you d**k riding. Soon as you try to post a n***a that’s dead, you d**k riding. Do y’all muthaf**kas ever say anything good?”
Ralo and Rich Homie Quan engaged in a feud in 2016, after Ralo accused Quan of song theft. They managed to put their differences aside and reconciled in 2021. After Quan’s passing, Ralo took to Instagram to honor the late rapper, expressing gratitude that they resolved their issues prior to Quan’s death. He reiterated this sentiment in an Instagram video following Quan’s memorial.
Ralo Defends Rich Homie Quan Amid Snitching Allegations
On the day of Quan’s death, Ralo took to X to criticize individuals for their hypocritical conduct. He highlighted how the same people who called the late rapper a “rat”due to rumors of him snitching on Young Thug’s YSL RICO case were now memorializing him.
“See that that s**t I be talking about. Y’all n****s be so fake. The whole world was just calling this man, Rich Homie Quan, a rat. Soon as he die, ‘Oh, that was my friend. I love him.’ Boy, y’all n****s so goddamn fake ’round this muthaf**ka, man,”he stated.
Rich Homie Quan’s name was brought up during the ongoing YSL RICO trial just two days before his death. Quan and Thug had been emerging rappers together prior to their fallout.
On September 3, the prosecution questioned YSL associate Lil Woody, a key witness in the trial, about Quan’s relationship with Thug, asking if they had any issues.
Instead of answering directly, Woody aimed the question at Thug, inquiring,
“Thug, did you have an issue with Rich Homie…”
This moment elicited laughter from the court, including Thug.
