Background

"Walk Thru" was originally premiered on November 26, 2013, as a track on Rich Homie Quan's second official mixtape I Promise I Will Never Stop Going In.[1][2][3] The song was produced by Dupri from production team League of Starz and Problem, who is also featured on the song.[4] The CD quality version of the song without DJ Drama's tags was released online on January 3, 2014.[5][6] The song was then released for digital download by T.I.G.

The song features Rich Homie Quan crafting a "catchy melody over the instrumental's thudding bass and yawning synths." Problem's appearance adds a West Coast hip hop spin to the incontestable Southern song.[8]

Critical reception

Jimi of The Source said, "Both emcees mesh their different styles of sing-rapping perfectly, almost harmonizing at points. They trade verse back and forth, eventually gliding into their addictive hook that Quan sings. The Atlien brings his unorthodox flow and vocal delivery to share with listeners his struggle and hustle. It is an interesting fusion to say the least".[9]
