Rick Ross, otherwise known as Ricky Rozay, is by far one of my favorite rappers. He was born in Coahoma County, Missouri and became a police officer, until 2006, when he began his music career. Ross boomed to become the world renowned multi-million dollar rapper after his debut single “Hustle”. His famous line “every day I’m hustlin” lead his album, Port of Miami, to number 1 on the Billboards Album Chart. Rick Ross continued to release top charted albums and a few have even gotten gold and platinum! As the fame got to him, Ricky Rozay created his very own record album called Maybach Music Group. Some of the other rappers in his record label include Wale, DJ Scream, Stalley, Meek Mill, Rockie and Omarion. Like most other rappers, Rick Ross primarily raps about girls, money, and drugs. I find this very ironic since he was associated criminal justice, but I guess the good in people doesn’t always last. With his success, came all of the money. Ross has a net worth of a whopping 35 million dollars. Just his necklace of himself cost nearly 2 million dollars! You can say that its money well spent for a guy that works hard for his fans. Although most of his songs are club bangers and for the hype, Rick Ross has a few meaningful songs. For example, his song “Ashton Martin Music” is a chill and laid back song literally about him cruising in his Ashton Martin. He also reminisces about his bae and how he misses her. Overall, Rick Ross is a fascinating rapper. Not only has he impressed his fans, but also hip hop legend, Jay Z. He loved Ross so much that the executive of Dej Jam Records signed him to the label. Rick Ross is a big guy doing big things.
