Quando Rondo Reacts To Rich Homie Quan’s Music Topping Charts After His Death

As the hip-hop world continues to mourn the tragically sudden death of Rich Homie Quan, many are also reflecting on his legacy as an artist. It should come as no surprise that there are probably millions of rap fans listening to him right now, reflecting on his many hits and idiosyncrasies as a performer and lyricist. But some folks think that the love for the Atlanta MC is coming off as hollow or as “fake love.” For example, Quando Rondo recently reacted via Instagram to RHQ’s music topping a chart, although it’s a bit unclear what chart it specifically is. While Quando thinks that this love is coming only because he passed away, he spoke on how he’s a longtime admirer of his.

Furthermore, Quando Rondo’s words don’t suggest in the slightest that Rich Homie Quan doesn’t deserve this support. Rather, he thinks it’s just coming off as fake, although most fans in the comments section of the post below aren’t taking it that far. They just think that people are being nostalgic for his older material. Nevertheless, Ralo is another artist who expressed similar feelings about these reactions.

To lose my son… my 1st born, my best friend. Lord let this be a dream…. Yall pray for me and my family. I feel like I’m crushed into a million pieces.” Along with Lamar, many other loved ones, collaborators, and industry admirers have poured out their well-wishes, reflections, and parting messages in the face of this tragedy.

I wish you guys some type of prosperity,” Offset recently expressed when asked at a Billboard event if he has any words for RHQ’s family. “Some type of overcoming of it. Shout out to Rich Homie, man. That’s a day one artist right there. We all came up together in the same lab, in the same kitchen, you know what I mean? Trying to make it happen, man. That’s a tragic thing to hip-hop, man. Shout out to Rich Homie Quan, man. RIP to you and bless your family.”

Rajon Rondo has officially called it a career.

Speaking on the All the Smoke podcast, Rondo revealed that the NBA has “absolutely” seen the end of him on the court, and he will spend time with his kids.

“What a time, it was definitely something that I never took for granted when I was in the game,” Rondo said. “I loved every minute of it, and I appreciate the brotherhood that I was able to share and bond and grow with over the years. I’ve learned so much in this game and it’s made me the man who I am today. … I tell people all the time, this wasn’t a dream of mine, it was a goal. I was able to lock in, stay disciplined, I didn’t party a lot in college. But it was worth the sacrifice of me getting to where I wanted to be in life.”

Rondo is a 2x NBA champion, winning with the Boston Celtics in 2008 and the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020.

Across his career, Rondo averaged 9.8 points, 7.9 assists, and 4.5 rebounds across 957 career games. In addition to the Lakers and Celtics, Rondo played for the Dallas Mavericks, Chicago Bulls, Sacramento Kings, New Orleans Pelicans, Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Clippers, and Cleveland Cavaliers.

Quando Rondo Arrested On Federal Drug Charges: Report

According to WJCL, the FBI arrested Quando Rondo on federal drug charges on Friday (December 8). Moreover, an agency spokesperson told the outlet that police in Savannah, Georgia– his hometown– pulled over a vehicle at Burroughs Street and 37th Street around midnight. Reports indicate that they only arrested the rapper, who was the passenger, and that this occurred without incident. Rondo, real name Tyquian Bowman, just recently dodged a ban from his home of Chatham County, so this is just the latest in a troublesome and unfortunate series of legal issues for him. Not much else emerged about his current condition or response to this development at press time.

Furthermore, this arrest comes about six months after authorities indicted Quando Rondo and 18 other individuals on state drug and gang charges. Specifically, he faced accusations of violating the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act by allegedly managing the Rollin’ 60’s gang in the area. Not only that, but the Never Broke Again affiliate also received charges for supposedly using communication illegally, as he allegedly used a phone to organize the sale of marijuana. As such, while this case went quiet for a little bit following his release on bond, it seems like prosecutors still want to take it to court with more evidence.
