Meek Mill - Tupac Back (Ft. Rick Ross) From the Self Made album




I happen to like Rick Ross I think the way he delivers his rhymes are nice and he usually has a catchy hook in his songs

The only thing I don't like about Ross is most of the time, he base his songs on other people's lives . In a sense I think he does this because himself has not gone through the things that the people he uses for inspiration have gone through. The only possible aspect that Ross can connect with is the fact that most of the people he chose at one time or another were financially unstable. Also know as broke, but honestly who can not relate to that issue.

     Let's take a look at a few of the people Rick has chose to make money from by writing about their lifestyle.

First it began with his name Rick Ross which was based on the real life Drug Kingpin Freeway Ricky Ross. Freeway Rick Donnell Ross was the first person to sue The rapper Rick Ross for the use of his name

Panamanian Gen. Manuel Noriega Claim to know the real Noriega and supposedly Noriega ol' him a hundred favors

Pablo Escobar supposedly knows Pablo Escobar who died in 1993

Larry Hoover In the song B.M.F. he claims he thinks he is Larry Hoover how is that when Larry Hoover is serving six life sentence in a max security prison.

Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory In the song B.M.F. he claims he thinks he is Big Meech who is serving a 30 year sentence

Notorious Big AKA The Teflon Don One of the most notable rappers of all time who died in a L.A. drive-by Ross titled his latest CD after BIG who got the title from the original Teflon Don John Gotti

2Pac who died in a Las Vegas drive-by and with his latest mixtape he spits the names of Tupac's number one records.

Is there no end to what Rick Ross will claim he is or what he has become? The real question is without all the different people which Ross inspires to be like would he be as good as we think he is now?

  1. Didn't it come out that all Rick Ross ever was was a Corrections officer? Didn't all his lies come to light just prior to the release of "Deeper than rap". I stopped following Rick Ross after that. Is he still claiming to have been a cocaine kingpin and such? If so, shame.
