One of the most difficult working rappers in the game. A Hustler Street turned its withering life story in the words of some of the best rap songs of the year. After sold millions of archives, Rick Ross lent a hand that gives light to another talent by creating Maybach’s music. The newly formed label houses part of the coolest MCs, including WALE, MEEK MILL, etc. In 2013, it does not seem that his hustle slows up with endorsement offers, a line of potential sunglasses and a book on rapper Rick Ross become a Mogul media.
Recorded near the port of Miami William Leonard Roberts II grew up in many ways of sumptuous life it details in its archives. He was raised by his single mother Tomme Roberts after moving from Mississippi. His parents divorced when he was 7 who forced his mother to raise him alone. While TOMMIE worked as a nurse Rick Ross. It was a first struggle but after 10 years of economies, his mother was able to buy a house in the suburbs of Miami Gardens. Ross excelled in academics and was popular among the students of his high school. He drove a blue white goat that was given to him after fixing the car of a neighbor. To prevent himself flying, he would remove the steering wheel and would wear it with him.
Ross also showed a strong passion for football. He received a scholarship to Albany State University in Georgia. He had dreams of playing in the NFL but after only one semester he dropped out of college where he studied Criminal Justice. Although he doesn’t show much fondness for the law of authorities in his music Rick Ross served in the justice system as a Correctional Officer. He earned over $30,000 a year before he quit to pursue his rap career full time.
Rick Ross has sold over 4 million albums world wide and gets 3% of his artist album sales who are signed to Maybach Music Group. Yes French Montana, Wale, Meek Mill and Omarion all fork over a percentage of their album sales to Rozay. He had a $1 million deal with Reebok which he lost thanks to a line form one of his songs suggesting he drugged and raped a girl. But with noise from fans and music insiders Ross might be signing back on with the sneaker giant in a deal worth $2 million for his own line of sneakers. No doubt this will draw even more criticism from the media but Reebok is banking on the publicity after the sales of Tyga’s T-Raww dropped and didn’t meet expectations.
Rick Ross also recently bought a silver Maybach. It might not sound like news but for someone who has released over 5 parts to a song entitled Maybach this is his first Maybach vehicle he actually owned. Yes the rap star who raps about a life on exotic islands with dark skinned and light skinned women wearing nothing but bikinis and high heels admits this is his first Maybach purchase. The cars is worth almost $500,000. But Mercedes who created the vehicle announced this will be the final year of sales. The company had high hopes for the $500,000 car expecting it to compete with classics like Rolls Royce and Bentley. But sales have been slow and Mercedes lost over $1.2 billion for poor sales spending billions to produce the inventory that wasn’t sold.
