“Rich Minion” is an ode to the major motion picture film, Minions: The Rise of Gru, by Yeat.

Throughout the track, Yeat braggadociously raps about his wealth and affiliation with the Minions, expressing his hate for Despicable Me’s antagonist, Vector.

On June 16, 2022, Lyrical Lemonade owner Cole Bennett took to Twitter, revealing that he convinced the Rise of Gru filmmakers to have Yeat on the soundtrack.
