Kanye West’s New Album Distribution Might Become Rick Ross’ Responsibility

October 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The last time Kanye West attempted to roll out an album, the process was nothing short of tumultuous. Of course, at this point, the rapper’s fanbase has become accustomed to regular delays and cancellations from their favourite artist, who’s been hinting at something cooking up over the past few months. He and Ty Dolla Sign have reportedly been planning for a massive performance in Italy, though that was postponed earlier this week. Amid that news, reports of West having a difficult time finding a distributor for his next LP have been spreading rapidly.

Even with all the trouble he’s landed himself in over his comments on the Jewish community, the 46-year-old still has friends willing to stick their neck out for him. Among them is Rick Ross, who publicly expressed an interest in signing West to his Maybach Music Group label. “Imagine if Ye came and allowed MMG to distribute his new project,” the “Purple Lamborghini” hitmaker reflected.

“Imagine that. What’s your favorite Rick Ross, Ye collab? Imagine that. Imagine the artistic drive. And I got some amazing ideas for the Yeezy brand. Amazing ideas for the Yeezy brand! Let’s speak,” Ross said in a video on his Instagram Story earlier this week. As the Southern superstar also pointed out, he and West have put out some incredible collaborations over the years, including “Devil in a New Dress” and “Monster” from the fashion designer’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy LP.

Considering all the controversy Kanye West has found himself wrapped up in throughout his career, we’re not exactly surprised that he’s having so much difficulty finding a willing distributor for his next project – no matter how highly anticipated it is. Reflect on some of the father of four’s most memorable (but not entirely flattering) moments in the spotlight at the link below. What’s your favourite collaboration between Ye and Rozay? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Meek Mill And Rick Ross Locked In A Release Date For Their Joint Album ‘Too Good To Be True’

Meek Mill and Rick Ross’ upcoming joint album Too Good To Be True officially has a release date: November 10. In a new pair of videos depicting the album’s recording process, the longtime collaborators appear to be locked into the studio, where they receive visits from DJ Khaled and Diddy, who hype up the release before title cards reveal the album’s release date.

Meek and Ross first promoted the project’s impending release with their single “Shaq & Kobe,” later announcing its title and tell Apple Music’s Ebro Darden about its creation.

The project will be released by Ross’ Maybach Music Group imprint in a new partnership with Gamma, a music startup founded by veteran music execs Larry Jackson and Ike Youssef with funding from Apple and A24. The album will see Meek and Ross join forces again for the first time since 2019’s Port Of Miami 2, where Meek appeared on “Bogus Charms.”

Since then, some fans thought that a rift had formed between the two rappers when rumors surfaced that Rick Ross had trouble getting into Meek Mill’s birthday party in 2021. Meek later expressed discontent with his record deal, but Ross downplayed his comments, saying he believed they were directed at Atlantic and not MMG.

However, those rumors appeared to be unfounded; late last year, Ross joined Meek onstage to help celebrate the 10th anniversary of his debut album Dreams & Nightmares.

Meek Mill and Rick Ross are ready to take you into the world of Too Good To Be True. The album is set to be released on Nov. 10, as revealed in a trailer featuring Diddy, DJ Khaled, and more.

“N-ggas ain’t seen me or Ross around each other for a long time,” Meek says in the trailer. “We got back to the business, straight back to the family, love, and jumped right back in the studio immediately. So, y’all about to get that live and direct and what happens. Tune in.”

Meek Mill and Rick Ross recently graced Ebro Darden’s Rap Life Radio with their presence for a special edition, marking the release of their latest single, “Shaq & Kobe.” But the excitement didn’t stop there – the dynamic duo had a major announcement up their sleeves. They revealed plans for an eagerly anticipated collaboration album, Too Good To Be True.

During the show, the two rap heavyweights expressed their exhilaration at the prospect of recording together again, emphasizing the electrifying energy of being back in the studio. Their collective efforts transcend music, as they are equally dedicated to securing their legacies through groundbreaking business deals.

“We won already,” Ross said. “We playing with what? The house’s money and it’s only one way to explain that or describe that. It’s too good to be true, which is the name of the project me and Meek Mill will be releasing.”

Ross revealed the album took him and Meek two and a half months to complete. Meek added, “When me and Rozay got in the studio, it was all about real energy, organic motivation. This Rozay, I’m rapping next to too. This Rozay, top five dead or alive right now. I don’t know who want to argue with that.”

In a noteworthy twist, both Meek Mill and Rick Ross underscored their commitment to prioritizing their health, signaling a new chapter in their lives. The announcement has fans eagerly awaiting their forthcoming album and celebrating the enduring influence of these rap icons in the music industry.

“I wasn’t healthy,” Meek said. I was drinking liquor every day. My stomach was bent over for a year and a half. I came home 2019, I couldn’t smoke weed or really drink liquor like that. And before 2019, I was off the lean and all that.

“I changed my lifestyle. Well I thought I changed, try to change over to the liquor every day. I’m being on tour afterparty. That kind of ruined up my stomach. So I had to sit down for a minute, let my shit build up. That was another human trial that we go through on the inside and they’re like, yo, when you dropping I’m telling my own family, yo, my stomach fucked up. Y’all, I weigh 170, bro. It’s on hit right now.”

Birdman & Rick Ross Have No Relationship, Former Confirms There’s No Drama Between Them

October 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Hip-hop is a huge industry, and it’s only getting bigger. Even with the recent efforts to make peace within it, it’s impossible for everyone to be friends. Thankfully, some creatives are mature enough to know that this means they don’t have to beef, like Birdman and Rick Ross. The former was invited to speak on Clubhouse by Wack 100 this past weekend. He answered questions about his work with other artists, among other things. At one point, the Louisana native was asked if he and Rozay have anything in the works, to which he gave a commendable answer.

“I can definitely say that I seen that Rick Ross is one of the guys you helped build early on,” a No Jumper editor told Birdman during their Q&A. “You showed him the ropes. What’s your relationship now, and can we see y’all doing anything in the future?” The Cash Money Records founder replied, “Hmm, I don’t know. We don’t have a relationship right now. I don’t have no shade with Ross, he doing what he doing. I would never disrespect him.”

Bird added that he’s not the type to “talk down on no man.” Even if the Biggest Boss and him never reconnect, he wishes the best for his old collaborator and hopes to see him continue to thrive. “I know how hard it is for any ni**a to win in this business,” the “Money to Blow” artist declared. “I don’t give a f**k! It’s hard for us, it’s very hard for us. For us to be successful, we got to do what we got to do. It’s a challenge, it’s a fight. We got to be able to fight. I like to fight till I die, I’m built on that structure, but I will never speak ill on no man.”

Besides his relationship (or lack thereof) with Rick Ross, Birdman got to talking about plenty of interesting topics on Clubhouse. At one point, the 54-year-old said that Bad Bunny is a signee of Drake’s OVO label, raising some eyebrows among fans. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Rick Ross Works On His Jump Shot With Lethal Shooter, Fans Roast Him

October 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Even though Rick Ross was born in Clarksdale, Mississippi, he has been living in the sunshine for years now. Most people associate Rozay with Florida, especially with his major support for professional sports teams. One that he reps heavily is the Miami Heat. He and LeBron James formed a friendship over the years, especially during the Heat’s four consecutive trips to the NBA Finals. Ross has appeared countless times on sports talk shows to discuss the Heat’s chances to win the Finals again over the years as well.

His love for his team is great and he seems excited that the NBA season is about to get underway. It is just a few weeks away and Ross will be able to catch Miami on NBA TV on Tuesday, October 10. That is their first pre-season game and it is against the Charlotte Hornets. Presumably not all of the starters will be playing heavy minutes, so maybe Ross can get some run tomorrow night. He has been working on his jump shot recently with shooting coach extraordinaire, Lethal Shooter.

Rick Ross Reveals That He Has Spent Over $100 Million In The Last Six Months: Watch

October 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

We could talk about the baller mentality of Rick Ross for eternity. The highly successful rapper hailing from Mississippi, has been making baller moves for years. He essentially stepped into the rap game taking over in his own way with his hit from ’06, “Hustlin.’” It is safe to say that this song embodies what he is all about. From that point forward, he worked relentlessly to grow his musical catalog. Over time, he gained a lot of knowledge about how to increase his income. It all started to come together once he signed his seven-figure deal with Dej Jam and Jay-Z.

Just a short time ago, Ross joined a local Miami, Florida podcast. Daily Deposits Miami nabbed the big-time rapper to talk for quite a while. One of the conversations was about how he put aside his $1 million. It taught him how to be smart with his money. Once he saw how quickly he could make a lot, he continued to up the ante. “F*** a mil. You got that right off the rip, you got to readjust this s***. Now it’s five [million].” After all of the grinding and smart investments over the years, Ross is able to get involved with more projects.

Additionally, they talk about Rozay’s spending in the clip above from DJ Akademiks. “I done had my hands in 25 different projects,” the rapper says. “Im a real frugal n**** at some points but when it’s time to make a power play I will.” The big, or not so big shocker in all this, was how much he had spent over the past six months. “I spent $100 million in the past six months.” He even breaks down what he dropped his cash on. “I just bought a crib for 35, a jet for 35, then the investments, I’m over $100 million in the last six months.”
