WATCH: Saweetie Details the Yachty Day That Inspired Her Single “Richtivities”
Saweetie is revealing what inspired her anthem, “Richtivities.” Speaking with Jen for an Audacy Check-In at the Hard Rock Hotel New York, Sawettie revealed that the release came from a yacht fun day.
“‘Richtivities’ came from [being] on a yacht with my home girls. We drank champagne, rode jet skis [and] ordered food to the boat. It was a crazy experience, and I was like, ‘this is a richtivity’ like a rich activity,” she said. “That’s what inspired that song. The underlying message is that if you work hard, this is what you reach. You reap the rewards of working hard. It’s a song to celebrate your wins or listen to when trying to reach certain goals.”
