Who remembers when Rozay had the rap game nestled in his fat rolls?

[CarltonJunior]

There’s levels and Rick Ross was a big star but not a huge superstar. That’s okay.

Again you must have a narrow definition of a star

Him and his label were undeniable heavy hitters in the game for a solid 6-7 years

He appeared on every major album and was doing numbers. From DJ Khaled, to Drake, to Kanye, Jay-Z, etc everyone worked with Ross

 

[Reptile]

Can‘t believe I forgot the Triple C’s album. Underrated album.

Gunplay floated ALL over that shyt

2009. This was around the everybody started to like Ross. By 2010 nikkas loved him (Im nikkas)

 

[Reptile]

Some of my favorites from Fat Boy

 

[BK The Great]

Ross has been as the face of Hip Hop for 10 years ever since Stay Schemin Dropped. He leveled up after doing that song with Dre & Jay-Z, I remember flex was dropping bombs on his show when he was debuting this. He’s probably only got one platinum album but he’s had a long run in the mainstream.

 

[Mac Ten]

Ross had 2010-2012 on lock, ngl...


He held it down while T.I and Wayne were locked up.

Despite him being exposed as a CO, this would always be my favorite song from him

Drake, Wayne, Kendrick, Ye, etc are huge superstars. Rick Ross was never on that level. It’s okay. You’re trying to rewrite history.

 

[Sad Bunny]

Ended his own run with god forgives album. Such a mellow sound compared to the prior albums.

 

[Timbs]

Bruh I was just saying the world needs another MMG press conference

 

[BlackXCL]

He ran the summer with this joint. A modern day classic. And one of the hardest beats in hip hop history.

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Don’t remember this time. Rick Ross never a huge star.

On top of that The South was well into their thing before Rozay

 

[TheMailMan]

Ross from deeper then rap up until God forgives I don't he was on top. GFID is when he started losing steam . That was a good run ,everyone ate except maybe pill lol .

 

[Keep_It_Hip_Hop_Fam]

This thread is all facts

Ross was perceived to be authentic and well respected in rap before he got exposed for lying about being a correctional officer.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

"Ima pull out the Vacheron!!"

 

[Arizax2]

Deeper Than Rap was a damn good album. Those were my early college years.
