RichType Pierre Tha Great built his own house.
Now officially standing as a Triple-Based National Mainstream Independent Artist, RichType represents New Orleans, Houston, and Atlanta — three cities that don’t just shape music culture, they define it. His journey isn’t about overnight success or viral luck. It’s about survival, discipline, and carrying an entire career on his own back.
According to his 2026 Electronic Press Kit, RichType has released over 30 professionally recorded songs with zero collaborations, built verified listenership across all 50 U.S. states, and established growing international audiences — all without a record label or major financial backing

That’s not independent.
That’s militant independence.
Raised in New Orleans, Tempered by Displacement
RichType grew up on both the East and West Bank of New Orleans, moving through Uptown, the 7th Ward, and New Orleans East — environments rich in culture but heavy with pressure.
Then Hurricane Katrina reshaped everything.
Like thousands of families, he was displaced, spending formative years moving in and out of Houston, Atlanta, and parts of Baton Rouge before eventually returning to New Orleans around late middle school and high school. That instability became education. Each city left fingerprints on his sound, perspective, and identity.
Those experiences would later crystalize into what he now calls his Triple-Based foundation.
New Orleans gave him soul.
Houston gave him resilience.
Atlanta gave him vision.
Together, they built an artist who doesn’t belong to one market — he moves through all of them.
A One-Man Army in a Feature-Driven Era
At a time when most careers are built on collaborations and co-signs, RichType went the opposite direction.
No features.
No label.
No safety net.
Just consistency.
He recorded 30+ songs completely solo, while still working a 9-to-5 and living through poverty. Every release, every rollout, every milestone came from personal sacrifice and self-belief.
That’s why he openly calls himself a one-man army.
Not as branding.
As biography.
“They All On My Six” Changed the Scale
His breakout single “They All On My Six” marked a turning point.
The record went viral across social platforms and YouTube, then crossed into heavy national radio rotation. The momentum drew attention from multiple outlets, with 504 XXL publicly naming the track a potential Song of the Year — a moment that pushed RichType from regional recognition into mainstream independent territory

.
Louisiana and Texas quickly embraced him as a household name.
Georgia is next.
Dallas, Baton Rouge, and Shreveport have become official fanbase strongholds, while Atlanta continues to emerge as a major growth center.
This isn’t hype geography.
These are real listening markets.
Creator of Brap (Brass Rap)
Beyond numbers, RichType is also the architect of Brap (Brass Rap) — a genre blending hip-hop with brass-driven production rooted in New Orleans tradition. It’s a sound that bridges street energy with live-instrument intensity, giving his records stadium-level impact while staying culturally grounded.
It’s music built for movement.
And it’s helped separate him from an oversaturated independent field.
National Reach, Global Direction
His Press Kit confirms verified listenership in every U.S. state, alongside rising international traction in markets like Brazil, Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa, and Nigeria

That combination — national foundation with global momentum — is what defines a National Mainstream Independent Artist.
Not someone waiting for permission.
Someone already operating at scale.
Redefining What Independent Looks Like
RichType Pierre Tha Great represents a new blueprint:
Triple-based roots.
Nationwide audience.
International expansion.
No label dependency.
No financial shortcuts.
Just work.
From New Orleans blocks to Houston transitions to Atlanta alignment, RichType didn’t inherit opportunity — he manufactured it.
“They All On My Six” opened the door.
But the movement was already built.
And now, RichType Pierre Tha Great isn’t just part of the conversation about independent success.
He’s rewriting the definition.
