Ma ʻaneʻi ʻo ia i noho ai i kona wā ʻōpio, a loaʻa pū kāna mau leʻaleʻa nui - mele a me ka skateboarding. Ua hānai ʻo Māmā iā Dimitri wale nō, ʻaʻole i kōkua ka makuakāne i ka ʻohana.

Ua hoʻopuka ka mea hoʻokani novice i kāna mau hana mua ma ka Pūnaewele ma lalo o ka inoa haku mele Black Boy the Kid. Akā naʻe, hoʻololi koke ʻo ia iā Rich the Kid. ʻO ka hoʻokuʻu mua ʻana o Roger ma 2013 ʻo Been About the Benjamins. Ma hope iki, ua hoʻopuka ʻo ia i ʻelua mixtape me ka hui kaulana ʻo Migos.
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Rich i ʻelua mixtape Feels Good 2 Be Rich and Rich Than Famous i ka makahiki 2014. Hiki ke lohe ʻia nā mea pena e like me Rockie Fresh, Young Thug, Kirko Bangz a me RiFF RaFF.

Ma hope koke iho o kona hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana, ua hoʻoholo ʻo J$tash e haʻalele i ka lepili.
I ka makahiki 2016, ua hoʻopaʻa ka mea hoʻokani i kahi hana hoʻokahi, ʻo Trap Talk. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia kekahi mau mele me 21 Savage, Kodak Black, Party Next Door, Migos a me Ty Dolla Sign. Ua lilo ka lepili Interscope Records i mea hoihoi i nā hana a ka mea pena. A ma 2017, ua kau inoa ʻo Dimitri i kahi kuʻikahi me ia.
ʻOiai ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Rich i nā mele ma lalo o ka malu o Interscope Records, ua hoʻomau kāna lepili i ka hana. I ke kauwela o 2018, ua kono ʻo Kid i ka mea hoʻokani mua, ʻo Airionne Lynch, i ka lepili. Ua ukali ʻia kēia me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o ka mixtape 15-track The World Is Yours.

ʻO ka hakakā e pili ana iā Rich the Kid

Ua hōʻoia ka mea hoʻokani i kēia me nā kūlana maikaʻi aʻe ma mua o ka hāʻawi ʻana o nā DJ kaulana a me nā rappers. ʻOiai ʻo ia ka mea nona ka lepili, ua ʻike ʻo Rich i kēia hewa a ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia iā Lil Uzi e hui pū ʻo ia me ka inoa ʻo Rich Forever.
Ua haʻi ʻo Uzi iā Kid ʻaʻole ʻo ia e hui pū me $20 i kona ola. Ua loaʻa iā ia ka pane ʻaʻole pono e hoʻokolokolo i kēlā me kēia ma muli o ka ʻike ola kaumaha. Ma kahi ninaninau, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Rich e pili ana i kona makemake ʻole iā Uzi. Ua ʻike pū ʻo ia i ka hiki ke hana ʻaelike me ia no ka ʻoihana wale nō.
No ka manawa lōʻihi, ʻo ka hakakā ma waena o nā mea pena kiʻi ʻaʻohe mea ʻē aʻe ma mua o ka ʻakaʻaka me kekahi. Eia naʻe, ua pau nā ʻakaʻaka i ka wā i hoʻokuʻu ai ʻo Rich the Kid i ka wikiō Dead Friend. Loaʻa i kahi hiʻohiʻona kahi e kanu ai ʻo Kid i kāna mea hoʻomāinoino i ka lua kupapaʻu. ʻO ka mea hana keaka i hoʻokani i kēia hana ua like loa me Lil Uzi.
ʻAʻole i ʻae ka hoa paio i kēlā mau hana hoʻopunipuni i kāna kuhikuhi. A i ka wā o ka Who Run It Challenge, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i kahi diss, ʻaʻole hewa wale ʻo Rich, akā ʻo ka hui ʻo Migos i loko. Ua kākoʻo ʻia ʻo Dimitri e Blac Youngsta, a i kekahi mau lā ma hope mai ua hoʻokuʻu lākou i kahi wikiō ma ke ʻano o ka paʻakikī. No kekahi manawa, ua kūkākūkā ʻia ka paio e nā puke like ʻole ma ka Pūnaewele. Ua haʻi aku ʻo Lil Uzi Vert i kāna mau manaʻo maikaʻi loa iā Kid a me kona ʻohana ma kahi hālāwai ninaninau. Nui ka poʻe i manaʻo ʻo ia ka hopena o ka pipi.
Eia naʻe, i Iune 2018, ua hui ʻo Uzi me Rich ma kahi alanui ma Philadelphia. I ka wā mua, ua hoʻolālā ʻo ia e kamaʻilio wale me kona hoa paio, akā ua hoʻoholo ka hope e peʻe ma hope o nā kiaʻi a holo. Ua hahai ʻo Lil Uzi iā ia a ua hiki iā ia ke hopu iā ia ma ka hale kūʻai kope ʻo Starbucks. Ma laila, paʻi pinepine ka mea rapper iā Kid. Akā ua hiki iā ia ke pakele hou ma ka lele ʻana ma luna o ka pākaukau kālā. Ma hope o kēlā, ʻaʻohe lono hou e pili ana i ka hakakā ma waena o nā mea hoʻokani.

I Dekemaba 2020, ua hoʻowahāwahā ʻia ʻo Rich the Kid i kona hoʻāʻo ʻana e kau i kahi mokulele kahi i manaʻo ʻia ai ʻo ia e lele i ka papa ʻoihana. Ua huli ka mea rapper i Instagram Live e kiʻi i ka manawa i pāpā ai nā limahana mokulele iā ia e kau i kahi mokulele. Wahi a lākou, honi ka mea hoʻokani i ka mariuana. ʻO Dimitri, ka mea hoʻohana ʻole i nā lāʻau lapaʻau, ua manaʻo ʻo ia ka hapa nui o ka hewa ma muli o ke kala o kona ʻili.
ʻOiai ʻo ia ma luna o ka lewa, ua hōʻike ʻo ia, me ka hui, ua lawe ʻia ʻo ia mai ka mokulele a kauoha ʻia e hoʻi i ka ʻīpuka i loko o ka mokulele. ʻAʻole makemake nā limahana e hoʻokuʻu i ka mea hana ma hope o kona hala ʻana i ka mana o ka Transportation Security Administration. Ua hōʻike mau ka rapper i ka hopohopo e pili ana i ka nalo ʻana i kāna lele, ʻoiai ua ʻōlelo nā limahana o ka mokulele ʻaʻole i hiki i ka manawa e lele ai.
I kekahi manawa ma ka lewa, ua hoʻolaha ʻo ia e hoʻopili ʻo ia i kāna loio e pili ana i ka hanana. “Ua waiwai loa au. Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe i ʻike i kēia, he kanaka waiwai nui wau. E hoʻopili aku koʻu loio iā ʻoe," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia i ka wā i hoʻihoʻi ʻia ai ka hui i ka wahi paʻa a hoʻomaka hou nā limahana i kā lākou ʻike. ʻAʻole maopopo inā hiki i ka mea pena a me kona mau hoa ke lele ma hope o ka hanana. Akā ua hōʻeha maoli ke kūlana i ka rapper.
He aha ka mea i ʻike ʻia e pili ana i ke ola pilikino o Rich the Kid?
Ua male pōkole ʻo Dimitri iā Antonette Willis, i ʻike ʻia e ka poʻe he nui ʻo Lady Luscious. He ʻelua keiki a lāua. I ka pūnāwai o 2018, ua hoʻoholo ʻo Antonette e haʻalele i ka mea pena, makemake e haʻalele i ka mālama kino piha o kāna mau keiki. Wahi a nā hopena o ka hālāwai hoʻokolokolo, hiki i ka mea rapper ke ʻike kekahi i kekahi a komo i ka hānai ʻana i nā keiki. ʻO ia hoʻi ko lākou kahu kānāwai a hiki i kēia lā.
Nui ke aloha o ka mea hoʻokani i kāna mau keiki. Akā ua ʻae ʻo ia i kekahi manawa ua hoʻoweliweli ʻo ka makua kāne iā ia: "ʻO ka mea maikaʻi loa ʻo ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana pehea e hānai ai i nā keiki. I kēia manawa ua liʻiliʻi maoli lākou. ʻO kēia kaʻu mau keiki mua ʻelua, a hānau ʻia lāua i hoʻokahi makahiki. ʻO ka mea maikaʻi loa, ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻike pehea e hānai a hoʻonaʻauao iā lākou, akā pono ʻoe e noʻonoʻo a aʻo i nā mea hou.
I ka waiho ʻana i ka male male, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Lady Luscious ua hoʻopunipuni ʻo Cyrus iā ia me ke kumu hoʻohālike ʻo Blac Chyna a me ka mea mele ʻo India Love. Ma hope mai, ua kamaʻilio pū ʻo Willis e pili ana i kāna kāne i koi ai iā ia e hoʻopau i kāna hāpai ʻana i nā manawa he nui. He manawa pōkole ma hope o ka waiho ʻana o kāna wahine i ka palapala noi, ua hui ka mea hoʻokani me Tori Hughes, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo DJ Tori Brixx.
I Iune 2018, ua mālama ʻia ka mea pena kiʻi i ka haukapila ma hope o nā mea komo i loko o ka hale o kāna aloha Dimitri. Ua komo pū kekahi mau kāne i loko o ka hale Hughes a koi ikaika i ke kālā mai ka mea hoʻokani. Ua hōʻole ʻo Rich e uku iā lākou. Ua hahau ka poe lawehala i ka mea pena a holo aku lakou mai ka hale aku, me ka lawe pu i na dala nui a me na mea waiwai. Ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana mai ka haukapila, ua haʻalele ka rapper me Tori Hughes ma muli o ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana i ka hana ʻino i loko o ka home.
Makemake ka mea pena i ka hoʻowalewale i nā mea pā. I ka makahiki 2018, ua mālama pū ka mea hoʻokani i kahi hoʻolaha PR ma Instagram. Ua hoʻopuka ʻo ia i kahi kiʻi i loaʻa ka kikokikona "RiP Rich the Kid 1992-2018" ma luna. Ma ka caption o ka paʻi ʻana, ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo ia i kāna poʻe pā a me kāna ʻohana no kā lākou kākoʻo ʻana i kāna ʻoihana hana. Ua kākau kekahi o nā lālā o ka hui ma nā ʻōlelo he hoʻopunipuni kēia, a makemake wale ka mea pena e hoʻololi i kona inoa kahua. ʻO ka hopena, ua lilo kēlā ʻano hana i "mahana" o kahi anaina o 4,2 miliona mau kānaka ma mua o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana e hiki mai ana.
