Background

In March of 2020, Young Dolph announced his retirement from music, citing wanting to spend time with family as the reason. However, he later backtracked on his statement, announcing that he was going to put out an album on March 20 that month.[4] Although the album was not released that night, he released the single "Sunshine" a month later, and released "RNB" in May 2020. The album was later released on August 14, 2020, under the title Rich Slave.

Critical reception

Wongo Okon of Uproxx complimented the track's "Southern magic" and "crisp one-liners".[5]
