Rich The Kid Releases Ye and Ty Dolla $ign-Produced ‘Life’s A Gamble’: Stream It Now

Rich the Kid is betting big with his latest release. The Queens-born rapper has dropped his highly anticipated new album Life’s A Gamble, his first solo full-length project since 2020’s Boss Man.

Released on July 19, 2024, Life’s A Gamble arrives as Rich rides the wave of his recent success with “Carnival,” his collaboration with Ye, Ty Dolla $ign, and Playboi Carti that topped the Billboard Hot 100 earlier this year. That hit gave Rich the Kid his first No. 1 and marked a major comeback after parting ways with RCA Records.

The 18-track album is executively produced by Ye and Ty Dolla $ign, bringing their Midas touch to Rich’s signature sound.

In a recent interview with Billboard, Rich explained the album’s title: “I feel like everything in life’s a gamble. You walk out the front door, you could get hit by a bus. Everything’s a gamble. I’ve taken wins and losses with my career, and I felt it was a perfect title.”

Life’s A Gamble boasts an impressive roster of guest features, including Ye, Ty Dolla $ign, Peso Pluma, Offset, Rob49, French Montana, Chief Keef, BIA, Quavo, and a posthumous appearance from Takeoff. The album includes the previously released singles “Carnival,” “Gimme a Second / Band Man,” and “Gimme a Second 2.”

Standout tracks include “Gimme a Second,” featuring Peso Pluma, “Not In the Mood” with Offset, and “Plain Jane,” which features Kanye West.

Rich the Kid has seen notable success on the Billboard charts over the years before landing his first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Carnival”.

His breakthrough came with the 2017 single “New Freezer,” featuring Kendrick Lamar, which peaked at No. 41 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2018, his debut studio album The World Is Yours reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200, driven by the hit single “Plug Walk,” which climbed to No. 13 on the Hot 100.

His subsequent albums have also performed well, with The World Is Yours 2 debuting at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 in 2019.
