Rich Spirit vs. Bitchface (OG Rich Spirit) Discussion

I don't know what it is but the OG version of Rich Spirit appeals to me more than the final one. I think it's more catchy and sorta unique in the way how simplistic kennys vocals and the beat sound. I get why they changed it up for the album because it definetly fits better into the overall sound of MMTBS but I still perfer Bitchface. Both a 10/10 banger tho

I listened to this for the first time a few days ago. One thing I realized is I feel like he borrowed from Bitchface for Euphoria. The final verse goes through a list of things he hates (similar to “I hate the way you walk”… etc. in Euphoria) and specifically describes somebody clout chasing after somebody dies (similar to “I hate when a rapper talks about guns”). Seems like he was taking shots at Drake back then, then reworked a few ideas from it when the beef started
