Ain’t that Rich.
Rapper Rich the Kid was recently booted from one of the most ritzy hotels in New York, Page Six has learned.
Multiple sources say the Atlanta hip-hop star and his entourage were told to leave the sceney Roxy Hotel in Tribeca after making a mess of rooms and upsetting staff by being “belligerent.”
But the rapper told us that he’s just being “stereotyped.”
“The narrative being painted of me is completely false. My working staff and me frequently stay at the Roxy Hotel in New York for business,” he said. “We have never had any complaints from the hotel or otherwise of any kind.”
He said that “alternatively, we have built a rapport with key staff and management at the hotel, who can confirm that we have never had any issues at the hotel.
“To the extent you have received any information that there were issues with the hotel, the only explanation I can give is that my staff and me were unfairly stereotyped,” he said, “and failed to receive the level of service and respect warranted for the loyalty we have shown the hotel and the money spent here.”
We were also told that his crew moved on to the equally trendy NoMad hotel — but were kicked out of there too.
When we put that to Rich, he replied somewhat cryptically, “We did not end up staying at the NoMad.” When pushed on whether he ever checked in there, he didn’t respond.
Reps for the Roxy and the NoMad didn’t get back to us.
