Rich Homie Quan‘s son got emotional as he was rapping his father’s music while on stage at his funeral service earlier this week.

Held on Tuesday (September 17) at World Changers Church International in South Fulton, the open-casket ceremony was packed to the brim with well wishers. This was the decision of Quan’s father Corey Lamar, who decided to do a large service to celebrate his son’s life.

The city of Atlanta officially declared September 17 to be Rich Homie Quan Memorial Day and peers like Killer Mike, DC Young Fly, former NBA star Stephen Jackson and more addressed the crowd with kind words about the late rap star.

Just ahead of the service, Rich Homie Quan’s first posthumous track, “Song Cry,” was released.

The song is more personal and emotional than his best known tracks such as “Lifestyle” and “Flex (Ooh Ooh Ooh),” and sees the Atlanta native ruminating on the trappings of fame and some of the more difficult aspects of his life.

“Aye, this one here personal,” he says in the intro. “I know a lot of my songs, y’all don’t take serious in a way, but I want y’all to turn this one up.”

Rich Homie then proceeds to reflect on witnessing the death of a friend, dealing with betrayal and smoking weed to “fake my feelings,” sing-rapping: “I have been through so much shit, wish you could hear my tears.”

The former Rich Gang rapper pronounced dead on September 5 after being found unresponsive in his home. A cause of death has still yet to be announced, although an autopsy was recently completed.

The police report stated that Quan was initially found at his Atlanta home “asleep on the floor by the kitchen with food in his mouth” by his brother Andre Munford in the early hours of September 5.

Munford told police he then carried the rapper onto a couch, describing the circumstances as “very unusual.”

Hours later, Quan’s girlfriend Amber Williams awoke to find him laying on the couch. She then left the house to drop her kids off at school.

Upon returning, Williams said Quan had not moved from the couch. Assuming he was still sleeping, she went back upstairs to their bedroom to go back to sleep, the report said.

After waking up, Williams said she checked on Quan at 11 a.m. which is when she noticed that his body was cold and he did not appear to be breathing. She immediately called 911, per the report.

The responding officer said Rich Homie Quan did not appear to be “alert, conscious or breathing” when he arrived at the property and he did not suspect foul play.

Quan, who was 34 years old, was transported to nearby Grady Hospital in Atlanta where he was pronounced dead.
