"Die Young" is a song by American rapper Roddy Ricch. The song was released on July 20, 2018, as the lead single from Ricch's second mixtape Feed Tha Streets II.[1] The song is dedicated to the deceased rappers XXXTentacion, Lil Snupe, and Speaker Knockerz.[2]
Produced by London On Da Track and Rex Kudo, the song features a beat described by Rolling Stone as a "somber requiem", with "light, twinkling keys that offset its dark subject matter".[2] It was also described as a "surging hit that comes from L.A. but sounds like a new strain of rap from the South".[2]
Critical reception
Charles Holmes of Rolling Stone described Roddy Ricch's breakout song as "triumphant", writing: "The line between rapping and singing has never been thinner, often displayed over superb, simple production. Roddy Ricch, a buzzing rapper from Compton, is the latest example of that shift."[2]
