Rick Ross stepped his game up...

Postby mcZu » Mar 14th, '11, 00:19

Is it just me or has Rick Ross stepped it up lately? His verses nowadays are lyrically better than, let's say, a year ago, for example. I'm not claiming he's good or anything, I'm just saying he is improving his pen game, which is always good. Especially now that he has signed Wale and Meek Mill to his roster --Wale being lyrically a pretty good emcee--, he might have to step it up even more with these new guys on his label.


Thoughts?

Rick Ross was always very enjoyable TBH.

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

I basically have zero respect for him as a person, but he makes good enjoyable music.

He makes those epic cinematic hip hop anthems.

His last album (Teflon Don) was great.

Aston Martin Music
Free Mason
I'm Not A Star
B.M.F (Blowin' Money Fast)
Tears Of Joy


^ some of my fav songs off it

+ I don't give a fuck about who he is in reality, and the way he acts or what he talks about in his music. At the end of the day it's entertainment, I don't take it seriously. Al Pacino was only acting in Scarface, and that movie is a cult classic.

Agreed, he's always had a good ear for beats, but his emceeing has come on leaps and bounds over the last few years

^ that track would have been the perfect opener for Teflon Don, my personal favourite Roozy song
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

He's a coward, a snake, a liar, and one of the least likable people in hiphop, but he's honestly pretty talented musically. He's not a great lyricist, but he makes bangers. You can't deny BMF is sick...

He's way better for hip hop then 50 Cent, doesn't beef with 1/100th of the amount of people 50 does, and isn't a snitch, even if he still is a fat phony. And his verses lately have been a lot better so I would agree.

50 is a cunt, and his fan base are douches sticking up for a guy who beefs with half the industry. He's not a legend. "I'll take ya to the candy shopppppp" :laughing: :laughing:
