The rise of Rich Homie Quan<\/p>\n
In 2011, Rich Homie Quan started his career. But it wasn\u2019t until 2013 that his single \u201cType of Way,\u201d which peaked at number 50 on the Billboard Hot 100, became a big hit with the public.<\/p>\n
At number 26 on the charts, his 2015 single Flex did even better.<\/p>\n
Along with fellow Atlanta rapper Young Thug, Quan was part of Cash Money Records\u2019 spin-off project Rich Gang. Their 2014 single \u201cLifestyle\u201d was an early hit.<\/p>\n

\u201cS**t was getting a little too street from me,\u201d he told No Jumper host Adam Grandmaison, better known as Adam22.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wasn\u2019t raised in a certain way\u2014that stuff doesn\u2019t even fit with my morals as a man,\u201d Quan said.<\/p>\n
Quan has four sons. Devin, his oldest, was born in 2006 and is the oldest.<\/p>\n
