I gotta say,


One day I was thinkin about that line on "Never Change" off blueprint


"'Sup to my miami and st thomas connects/
I never mentioned ya name i always promised respect"

Few years later Jay's the prez of Def Jam and signs Ross.

it's a stretch, but I was wondering if Ross and Jay were affiliated before rap and Signed him based on that, or Jay was affiliated with the nikkas who made money off ross, and signed him as a return favor to them.

Maybe, maybe not. It could all be bullshyt. But it made me think...

Rick Ross was saved by NEVER breaking character. Dude stayed cool and publicly unbothered by the whole damn debacle. He didn’t even sweat when 50 was pulling that lowdown shyt with his Baby moms.


That plus Hip Hop was lowkey already moving away from the “keep it real” mentality and more towards accepting an artist’s persona over whatever their real life was.

Focus and drive. Not allowing anything to knock him off his path.

Ross probably was dirty. nikkas be going to high school and shyt with the COs that be in the county. But he tried to make it seem like he was on a secret mission when he took the job at instruction from the head boss of a criminal organization, with the purpose of running a covert operation :pachaha:

The fact that he wants to avoid being associated with doing something 99.9% of his fans that financially support him do (i.e. work a regular ass job not in the enterainment industry) and sees it as something to be ashamed of tells you all you need to know about this goofy ass clown.

It's one thing to protect your image so you can continue to eat. But Ross went way beyond that.
