Am I wrong for wanting better ? Should I just just settle forever? I swear I feels like this is as good as it gets.. Am I wrong for wanting cheddar although they tell you that I’ll never get outta here. I swear I’m driven by a better life. I WANNA BE RICH don’t see nothing wrong with wanting more
I can't lie! I cried when I first heard this song because my wife and I was homeless and we're still struggling. We're going to be rich!! 💪🏾🙏🏾🖤🙏🏾🖤🙏🏾🖤💪🏾🙏🏾🖤🙏🏾🖤🙏🏾🖤💪🏾
I honestly respect August, He understands the struggle.. He knows how it feels to be scared, to run and not knowing what to do, to watch or hear that your home dog got shot. He gets it. He's true and real and I love him so much, Before knowing about August I didn't think any rapper understood the struggle.
Lol August Alsina aint even a rapper he's an r&b singer and this this is Kirko Bangz song, and he used to be poor so he knows the struggle, thats why he made this song!
I like this song because he's speaking about the pitfalls that a lot of young artists fall into while trying to make it....the lesson is to stop doing what you did before....doing the same thing only yields the same results. Not preaching ya'll just talking....
titoj86 I never heard ridge road on the radio before...if he comparing tpain songs to this...bartender or studio luv come pretty close... Also songs on the radio usually have videos
It was a local hit. I'm from Tallahassee where T-Pain is from, but, no, it was never an official single. If you listen to that song, though, it kinda has the same vibe as this Nolight Modarkness
I remember having a full time job and going to college at the same time and working my ass off ,listening to this while I studied at the library and finally watching it all pay off in the end because I made it through and graduated and made good money .But damn they had to shoot me and F up everything for me ,I lost everything when I developed PTSD and had to learn to walk again .Thank God I'm still alive but it's time for me to get back up and start all over now.
There's something about this song that gives like a type of anthem to me. Just that hustle that everyone wants to get to is just a thought away or an application away. Class of 2015 right here, I just want to get my degree, live happy, spend money on things that I desire, give to those that need it, and be the man that God want me to be. I hope everyone gets the same. Success is what you make it, money does not label what success is and there is truly no definition. I hope to see ya'll with me at the top #MoneyLoveHappinessRespectLIfeLove
What you don't get is this is a zero sum system, meaning when one wins one loses, meaning not everyone can be rich, meaning chances are we will not be rich. #KeepItDelusional
Love this song, such a strong message, especially at the end when he gets killed and says "which life will you choose." This song is about struggle, and believe me it is tiring. Its about hopes and dreams. I take my hat to these brothers who stay with their dreams and succeed. To the haters, what are you doing to make your dreams a reality?
This song will never get old to me....This song inspires me and makes me have watery eyes at the same time. I'm praying so hard to get out the struggle. I have ambition I won't stay down for long like Kendrick said major set back for major come up.... I'm making moves and my hard work and dedication is going to eventually pay off.....so to anybody out there that can relate stay strong and keep grinding don't give up, sometimes you go through it to grow through it but things will get better stay focused.
But more importantly God, put our hearts in the right place. Meaning, now that we were honest about what we want, move our hearts and help us chase after what You want, what You need us to to do. Put us in a position to bless others, however You see fit. Amen.
The first time I heard this song I was homeless (2014). Right now? I own my place (no mortgage) 4 sources of income, I won a settlement for $140k & last year I made approximately $200k with Dogecoin. God does miracles 🙏🏽
I don’t necessarily wanna be rich but I just wanna be comfortable where I’m not living paycheck to paycheck.🥺I definitely fuk wit this song though cuz I can definitely relate to these lyrics. Bless up.🙏🏻💯💯💯
2021 and the song still makes sense and forever makes sense in every situation! When you up to remind you where you used to be, when you down! Its a motivation. Keep it going 🙏🏼
2020 and I’m still loving this song and their voices on this! I definitely fell in love with August voice when I first heard this! Great collaboration!
I love this song because there is no feeling like being hungry to do better for yourself. Alot of people just get tired of struggling. I could care less about being rich, but I want better for my family and friends financially, spiritually, and health wise. Some times its hard to push on when everyone seems to win but you....even thoughs that dont deserve shit
I remember when this song came out. I was STRUGGLING. I was homeless 3 times in the next 4 years after this was released. I am proud to say that all these years later, I made it. I am in the top 10% of earners in the US and came from absolutely nothing. I got married and love my life. Just keep grinding because you will get to your dreams. Just stay motivated and keep pushing.
I love this song . I relate to full time job still struggling financially struggle . I remember Bob Marley’s interview . The interviewer asked him “ Are you Rich ? “ Bob Marley said “ When you say Rich , what do you mean ? “ Interviewer said “ Do you have a lot of money in Bank , possessions ? “ Bob Marley said “ Possessions make you rich ? “ “ I don’t have them type of riches . “ “ My riches is Life forever . “
This song was emotional to me when the poor people can't get money like us and they have know place to go. But some people die or take money and do bad stuff so a point to all less fortunate people out there plz take school and pay attention to the true meaning of life peace✌🏾
When this first came out I was in prison didn't know who was singing it but this song gave me the will power to live while I was fighting cancer it motivated me more to live i Love this song until the day I die I'm cancer free now.. Also thank you Jesus...!!!
This is dedicated to the whole of humanity especially the younger of today, but be rich emotionally,spiritually and mentally and the material will automatically follow
i love the message of the video... i dont think a lot of men understand that most of us good women are happy with just having you there. you dont have to be rich baby. we just want you
Wow. Dude, this is a really cool video. Shout out to the producers, editors, whoever came up with the concept, the music artists, and everything in between. It has a good message, and just talks about how hard it is to not live chasing a fantasy, and trying to obtain absolutely everything you want, even if you cannot succeed. Also, there's a good balance between the autotune and more straight forward singing. The hook is good, and his voice is really pretty. The audio producers did a great job as well as the artists.
+Shayla Evans my favorite line is, "I topped the charts for nine weeks but they still ain't notice me." It shows that he still remembers Drank In My Cup, which is an awesome throwback, and still ain't made it big. But he will though. Like he said in the making of Drank In My Cup video, "Quality over Quantity."
maksim tsionskiy Spend less, save more, invest in something that will have a big return, buy what you need, save for what you want, ensure that your income is always higher than your bills and other daily expenses. Open a business, invest in that business, grow and expand that business to a bigger market. Then you will be rich!
The lyrics are like a dose of happiness for the day!Kirko Bangz -.. is undoubtedly the GOAT! It doesn't matter if ..Kirko Bangz -..] used *authentic views* for that massive exposure, he's an incredibly talented trap star!

This song reminds me of the old T-Pain songs I'd use to hear on the radio. Shit goes pretty hard!!!
You mean like Bartender? Lol..soft shit....want shit that goes hard? Listen to Freddie Gibbs - Lay it Down...SHIT GOES PRETTY HARD!!
Double4 funny seeing you here love the reviews.
Nolight, I think he means songs like Ridge Road.

I love this song. It sounds good. I also want to be rich!
I think most people want to be rich but question is what you going to do about getting there
maksim tsionskiy Spend less, save more, invest in something that will have a big return, buy what you need, save for what you want, ensure that your income is always higher than your bills and other daily expenses. Open a business, invest in that business, grow and expand that business to a bigger market. Then you will be rich!
Nice concept. But what you really doing to implement
maksim tsionskiy I'm always modifying my plan when I feel as though that I have a new idea that seems better than the previous idea.
