Why is Rick Ross ice-cold right now?

[Michael's Black Son]

his whole body is the shape of the back of his neck

 

[Crumple]

Same level, no. Same space, yes.

True.

 

[Rozay Oro]

his whole body is the shape of the back of his neck

If he lose that weight, he stuck with that big ass head. He should turn it to muscle but he too lazy.

 

[ThiefyPoo]

He’s older and less active. Ross use to be a top 3 presents on the net with activity and fukkery, he’s more chill now and less popping

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

A 10+ year run for an artist who was never huge in his prime (no plat albums or singles in real time) is impressive. He was always a level below Tip, Ye, Wayne, 50, Jeezy etc.

Ross has had a great career all things considered, and he should continue to eat well off his core fan base for a long time.

Nah.

Around BMF/MC Hammer/Self Made/Khaled time Ross was an A+ act. He had a run

 

[Trot LaRoc]

Dude is caking off his investments so he doesnt need to rap to make $. Dude is in his 40s, he prob transitioning like Jay to be a businessman who drops music when he wants to rather than being a rapper who does businesses on the side

Hiphop is a younger mans game...its hard to be poppin when you older

I can see him being a East version of E40 and being a go to for features

 

[Pimpdaddy]

Mastermind :wowthefade:

 

[madness]

they played Florida Boy in this hood strip club I was at the other night, shyt sounded maybe because I was drunk

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

He will be hot again when he's releasing a new project

 

[dubsmith_nz]

Nah.

Around BMF/MC Hammer/Self Made/Khaled time Ross was an A+ act. He had a run

You cant be an A+ artist if your shyt never sold major units though. shyt BMF didn't even crack the top 50 and Teflon Don only went Gold in the states, and wood everywhere else in the world.

I'm not saying he didnt have a run, I actually think he had a damn good run for his stature in the game.

As I said though he was always a level below his peers e.g. Kanye, Wayne, Tip, Jeezy, 50 etc.

 

[L&HH]

This is kind of like asking in 2005 “why is Ice Cube so cold”?

Ross’s first album came out 13 years ago.

How many of these lil pumps you think we going be asking this about 13 years from now?

 

[Stick Up Kid]

He not one of these youngins, he in the same space as jay-z but it's easier for him to pump out albums quicker.
The boss is consistent and financially straight. Let us young adults and you old heads who grew up on the boss just enjoy the music. Streaming era anyways, being a fakkit clout chaser gets you spin if you not one of the big 4 (Drake, kendrick, Cole and Ye).

Ye isn’t in the big 4 anymore.. he’s been flopping consistently for the past 3 years. Etc

I’d put Chance the Rapper there since he’s selling out arenas solo

 

[OHSNAP!]

He been floppin', heatless and hype free since Hood Billionaire (solid album btw). But who cares, he still drops hard shyt

 

[Stick Up Kid]

Nah wayne sold what 600k first week last year. Crazy considering wayne came out in the 90's

141k pure sales
342k streaming

481k total

 

[RennisDeynolds]

Nah wayne sold what 600k first week last year. Crazy considering wayne came out in the 90's

Wayne is an outlier he had the highest highs and more crossover success
