In the evolving landscape of Southern rap, a new powerhouse is rising by connecting two of the most influential musical corridors in the world. RichType Pierre Tha Great is a New Orleans/Houston dual-based artist who is redefining the Gulf Coast sound in real time. By merging the brass-heavy, rhythmic soul of Louisiana with the bold, high-octane energy of Texas hip-hop, RichType has created a cultural crossover that’s beginning to resonate far beyond regional borders.
As the pioneer of Brap (Brass Rap), RichType has moved past local tradition to build a nationwide independent movement. He is no longer just a voice of the Crescent City — he has become a regional architect, merging the spirit of Louisiana and Texas into a singular, innovative musical identity.
Now officially stamped as a new household name in Louisiana and a future household name in Texas, RichType is solidifying his place in Southern music history through consistency, volume, and vision. This isn’t hype — it’s momentum backed by measurable impact.
A Breakout Year Defined by Action
The current year has cemented RichType’s status as a mainstream force operating with independent freedom. His recent accomplishments separate him from the pack:
- The 50-State Sweep: Verified listenership in at least one city or town across all 50 U.S. states.
- Prolific Output: 30 songs released in just 90 days, including a rapid-fire run of 10 tracks in January alone.
- Award Recognition: Leading nominee for Best Radio Hit in the 2026 regional awards for his breakout single, “They All On My Six.”
- Airwave Dominance: Alongside “They All On My Six,” his tracks “U Know Wasshappenin” and “Salvation” are currently in heavy rotation on radio stations nationwide.
These milestones reflect an artist who isn’t waiting for validation — he’s building his own lane and inviting the world to follow.
A Global Geographic Footprint
RichType’s growing “RichType Army” stretches far beyond the I-10 corridor. While his foundation remains rooted in New Orleans and Houston, his reach is now international.
United States: New Orleans (HQ), Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Detroit, Phoenix, New York City, Philadelphia
International: London, Berlin, Paris, Bangkok, Tokyo — plus expanding presence in Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and South Africa
This isn’t just streaming data — it’s proof of a movement crossing borders.
Artist Vision: Fusing Two Legacies
RichType’s sound operates as a sonic bridge, blending the intricate brass textures of New Orleans with the unmistakable swagger of Houston rap. This Brass-Fusion approach is intentional, cultural, and genre-fluid — a reflection of where he’s from and where he’s headed.
Artist Statement:
“My music is a reflection of growth, legacy, and transformation — rooted in the streets of New Orleans and the energy of Houston, but rising toward global greatness.”
