Atlanta rapper Rich the Kid is on the up-and-up these days. He’s preparing the sequel to his debut Rich Than Famous (called Rich Than Famous 2) and heading out on the Young Hustle Tour with a bunch of crew-mates. He’s also reportedly hanging and recording with Frank Ocean, tweeting the above screenshot of a facetime session with the singer. FADER confirms that they’re hitting the studio together today. (Meanwhile, we’re still waiting on that Frank Ocean album!)

Along with Rich, the Young Hustle tour will feature T-Wayne, Tate Kobang, TK N Cash and Rejjie Snow. The tour will come through NYC for a show at S.O.B.’s on January 26. Tickets for that are on sale now.

Check out Rich the Kid’s collaboration with iLoveMakonnen and Migos on “Whip It (Remix),” which made an appearance on Pitchfork’s top 100 songs of this past year, along with tour dates, below…
