We show you both sides of the bizarro ATL duo.

Rich Gang is now synonymous with Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan. The young duo is the hottest commodity out of Atlanta, and they haven't even released an album. Their music is different than anyone else's, but then again, everything about them is different. Last year, they busted the scene open with their mixtape Tha Tour Part 1 and their single "Lifestyle," undoubtedly one of the weirdest songs to ever hit number one on the rap charts. With the Young Money/Cash Money fallout in recent weeks, Rich Gang are now Birdman's biggest hopefuls, and we know he's gonna keep them in the game for a long time. We took a look at Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan's weirdest quotes, fashion choices and moments in the public eye. 

Whoever's weirder, we're gonna be seeing a lot more of both of the richest weirdos in rap.

Weird Gang: Rich Homie Quan Vs. Young Thug

Lyrics

Young Thug can fit more syllables in bar than anyone (even if you only catch half of them). Rich Homie Quan slurs and mumbles out the catchiest hooks in Atlanta. Not only are their skillsets different than most rappers, their lyrics are in a world of their own. Here are but a few head-scratchers.

"I won't do nothin' with the bitch, she can't even get me hard / somethin' wrong with the pussy." -- Young Thug, "Lifestyle"

"I'mma pull up eat on that pussy and dip." -- Young Thug, "Tell Em (Lies)"

"I feel like Osama in this motherfucker (Bin Laden that is)" -- Rich Homie Quan, "War Ready"

"Girl I want everything that comes witcha / Even if you got stretch marks and two children" - Rich Homie Quan, "Milk Marie"

"I fucked her then washed off my dick with the curtains inside of the phantom" -- Young Thug, "The Blanguage"

"Be ailing, pussy drier than a raisin / And I swear to god, from the backseat, can't take it" - Rich Homie Quan, "Whatever"

Fashion

Fashion

Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan are two of the most eccentric dressers in the game. As RHQ says in "Flex," "I'm a Bad Boy, but I don't wear big clothes like Ma$e." Their clothes are fitted (to a fault?), colorful and, always, designer. Their fashion choices have shaken up the hip-hop world, leading many to question each man's sexuality. The accusations haven't phased the Rich Gang, though. If Young Thug really cares about what people think, he wouldn't have posted an Instagram of himself in a dress. Either Thug dabbles with women's clothing, or he's rap's biggest troll. 

Whether it's Thug in a dress, or RHQ showing up shirtless to the BET Awards, we've included Rich Gang's most notorious fashion statements in the above gallery. In the third pic, you can see Thug wearing a (fairly uncontroversial) t-shirt from RHQ's clothing line, so look out for that.

Who's fresher?

Publicity

Publicity

In a recent interview with GQ, Young Thug revealed he won't be rapping when he reaches Jay Z's age (45). He also turned heads by saying he doesn't listen to Jay's music: "Like, Jay Z has some of the sickest lyrics ever, but I would never buy his CD, just because of my age and because of his age. By the time I turn that old, I ain't gonna be doing what he's doing." We recently heard Thug has been in the studio with Kanye, but don't expect Hov to hit him up anytime soon.

Below is the most extensive video interview you'll find with Young Thug, the rap-game Marshawn Lynch. In the interview, Thugga's itchin', literally, off the lean. He also admits the only rapper he listens to is Lil Wayne.

Quan, on the other hand, finds himself in the spotlight a bit more. During the 2013-2014 season, the Michigan State football team's number one locker room jam was Rich Homie's "Type of Way." After thrillingly defeating Stanford in the Rose Bowl, MSU brings Quan into the locker room, where he leads the team in victory sing-a-long and dance. Even the coaches get involved.

All in all, Rich Homie seems to be a jolly guy. Below, check him singing two Christmas carols in his signature ATL drawl. First, "Silent Night," and if you're still feeling festive, "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer."

We already know you can find Thugga in a dress on Instagram.

Is it a dress? Or will rappers soon have frills at the bottom of their tees? 

In an Instagram post showing a screenshot of a FaceTime sesh between the two Rich Gang members, Thug called Quan his "love/bro/friend 4LIFE." Some haters weren't feeling the bro-love, though Thug and RHQ are probably laughing at them over some ice cold GTV.

Okay, has the trolling gone too far? No homo? No words... By the way, Thug recently brought back his penchant for phallic blunts in "Friend of Scotty": "No homo, but my blunt look like a dick."

No homo we smokin penises!!!!

There are no words quite as provocative on Rich Homie's socials. He does share his dance moves, though. Thoughts on the Rich Homie strut?

Lastly, here's Rich Homie, AGAIN, feeling like an Osama. We can safely say this ain't a good look, Quan.
