With his “China Cafeteria 2.5” EP just around the corner, Runway Richy drops his third single from the project “I’ll Be There.”
Directed by Chase “DJ Southanbread” Walker, the video follows a young boy from the school grounds to the corner store to the graveyard in the latest video. It’s a heart-felt song that isn’t necessarily in the same vibe as his last single with Gucci Mane, “Switchin’ Sides.”
In an exclusive quote for HNHH, Runway Richy says “For me, the most personal track from my new project China Cafeteria 2.5 is definitely ‘I’ll Be There.’ It’s a real touchy song for me. I started the record thinking about how one of my homeboys Twin from the six got killed. I was just pouring myself out with the first verse and as I was working on the second, my manager finds out they just found Peanut Da Don dead. He was one of the newest members of Hustle Gang. We were cool and I was literally in the studio with him just 2 days ago. All of a sudden, I just went blank. So I crumbled up my verse and spit the second freestyle.”
You could feel the pain that Richy puts into the song and the way that he applies that to the concept of the video is brilliant.
