Rich Homie Quan Wants His Album to be "One of the Hardest Since OutKast"

Named to the XXL Freshman 2014 Class, Atlanta rapper Rich Homie Quan had hip hop lovers "feelin' some type of way" with his huge breakout single. Set to drop his debut album in the next few months, the 24-year-old is gearing up to unleash what he hopes will be a classic record.

"I really want to tell my story throughout my whole album; I want it to be a classic," he told Fuse host Esteban Serrano at Lollapalooza. "I want it to be one of the hardest albums since OutKast."

Honored to share this year's festival lineup with that legendary ATL duo, Rich Homie Quan is well aware that his fan base is rapidly growing. And with more followers—many of them very young—he's taken on the responsibility of keeping up a positive image. "When I first started making music, I was just making it. Now, I get a lot of younger kids who follow me. I try to watch what I say and try to keep it positive, so they have a good idol to look up to," he explained.
