“Rich Girl” is a song by American singer and songwriter Gwen Stefani from her debut solo studio album, Love. Angel. Music. Baby. (2004). Produced by Dr. Dre, the track features American rapper Eve, and is a remake of Louchie Lou & Michie One’s 1993 song of the same name, which in turn interpolates the Fiddler on the Roof song “If I Were a Rich Man”. The song discusses Stefani’s dreams of fame and riches from the perspective of “when she was just an Orange County girl”.
The last song to be included on the album, “Rich Girl” was released as the album’s second single on December 14, 2004, to mixed reviews from music critics. It was a commercial success, reaching the top 10 on most of the charts it entered. In the United States, “Rich Girl” was certified gold, and it received a nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the 48th Annual Grammy Awards.
