"Ain't no checks getting cut! Ain't never no checks getting cut!"

"I can put 1000 gangstas in any hood."

Really Ross? Really dude? You might want to think that over. If it was the GD's, chances are you're going to be paying double to get out of this situation. Then again, someone else could had took advantage of this.

Do you really think if he cuts that check he's gonna leave them alone?? If he cuts that check, the GD's in Georgia, Florida, Tenn, Alabama, Colorado, New Mexico, Haiti, Nova Scotia, India, Rhode Island, Madagascar, Anartica, Jupiter, Saturn, Liberty City, and Saints Row is gone want him to cut a check too.

LOL Of course not. Once weakness is shown, it's over. So either Ross needs to fold, or start doing the shit he claims in his raps.

"Freeway" Ricky Ross Responds To Rapper Rick Ross' Drive-By Shooting Attempt

Exclusive: "Freeway" Ricky Ross says that he's "not surprised" that Rick Ross was the target of a drive-by shooting.

Following yesterday morning's incident where rapper Rick Ross crashed his Rolls Royce into a building following a drive-by shooting attempt, "Freeway" Ricky Ross has spoken out on the situtation.

Speaking exclusively with HipHopDX, the former drug kingpin said that he's "not surprised" that the assassination attempt occurred because Ross "doesn't understand the street rules." As a consequence, situations like this take place.

"I'm not surprised that it happened given recent ongoings, when someone doesn't understand the street rules they get confused and incidents like this can take place,"
he said. "I'm still dealing with ongoing litigation about something as basic as using my name and identity, that should have been dealt with properly a long time ago. We covered it in more depth in the Power of the Name Rick Ross piece."

"Freeway" Ricky Ross plans to take the rapper and Warner Bros. Records to court this August in the continuing fight over his name. He previously explained that the Maybach Music Group leader has "exploited and misused [his name] since he went to prison" and "made millions off [of it]."

Rick Ross has spent years cultivating a thuggish persona deserving of the now-prophetic nickname "Teflon Don." But he is probably just as surprised as anyone to have joined the phrase "drive-by shooting" and "Las Olas Boulevard" in the same sentence on Monday morning.

If the chart-topping rapper was looking for a posh lair in which to hide from the glare of the Miami rap scene, he probably thought he'd found it on a remote spit of property on Fort Lauderdale's luxurious Seven Isles.

Ross was headed in the direction of that home at about 5 a.m. Monday when, according to Fort Lauderdale police, his silver 2011 Rolls-Royce was targeted by a barrage of bullets near the corner of Las Olas Boulevard and Southeast 15th Avenue. None of the bullets found its mark, but Ross' car ended up running into a two-story apartment building behind the iconic Floridian restaurant. The suspects remain at large, police said.

Ross and a female companion, Shateria L. Moragne-el, 28, a fashion stylist and designer, of Davie, were uninjured, as was the apartment tenant, Beth Balk, a Floridian waitress.

"I've never seen anything like this happen," Balk said. "It's quiet on Las Olas, certainly on a Sunday night."

A few hours earlier, Ross celebrated his 37th birthday with a performance at Liv nightclub at the Fontainebleau Hotel on Miami Beach. No incident was reported there, according to a hotel spokeswoman.

One of the bullets appeared to have entered a front window of the Floridian, a 24-hour diner where the city's politicians often drop in. They include Mayor John P. "Jack" Seiler, who was not dining there Monday morning.

"It's absolutely one of the most-unexpected activities to happen on Las Olas and hopefully it will be for the next 10 years," Seiler said of the event that briefly shut down the heart of the city's picturesque byway. "That's my goal, that we don't see something like this happen again. I don't ever want to hear of a shooting anywhere in the city."

Calling Fort Lauderdale "a wonderful place to be," he said, "there will probably be more news stories today about our perfect weather than this shooting. I suspect nobody is going to change their plans or that this will impact tourism one bit."

Seiler said he did not previously know who Ross was and was unfamiliar with his music.

"I had to ask around and learn about how big he is in the industry," Seiler said.

If the multimillion-dollar waterfront mansion adorned with a Rolls-Royce and a yacht named "City of Miami" is a rap-video cliché, Ross made sure the $4.7 million home was far off the hip-hop grid, on a bucolic cul-de-sac at the end of a maze of family-friendly streets, where the annual Halloween trick-or-treating begins with a send-off by a high-school marching band.

"That doesn't surprise me. That's Rick," said Derrick Baker, a Ross confidante and program director at the rap-oriented radio station WEDR, also know as 99 Jamz. "Once he steps away from the music, he's a family guy. Real chill."

If there is a theme that evolves from conversations with Broward County residents who have crossed paths with Ross, who also owns a $1 million home in Davie, it is that he's not the menacing black-leather misogynist of such videos as Wale's "Bag of Money."

"There are no complaints about him as a neighbor," said a Seven Isles neighbor who did not want to be identified. "He was friendly, always waved and slowed down for the kids."

The neighbor said she would see Ross frequently walking in the morning with a woman, getting exercise. The Seven Isles home is listed under his mother's name.

Baker said he has been friends with Ross, working on the rapper's education and charity projects, since 2005. Ross has been a frequent guest at the station's Hollywood studios, and did a half-hour on the air on Friday. Baker said he was "upbeat, very happy and excited" about his birthday and the imminent release of his sixth album, "Mastermind."

It is at that intersection of commerce and street cred that bad blood has been spilled between Ross and his rivals, most prominently 50 Cent. The rapper-actor, born Curtis Jackson, has made no secret of his belief that the urban-thug image of the Carol City-raised Rick Ross, born William Roberts, is manufactured.

"Hahaha fat boy hit the building?" 50 Cent wrote on his Twitter account on Monday. "Lol it looks staged to me. No hole's in da car."

WEDR's Baker said record sales may be at the root of 50 Cent's animosity, calling it "an on-wax feud," and laughed at the suggestion that Ross would stage a shooting to boost his reputation.

"Could this be an elaborate way to sell albums? I don't think Rick would go down that route, especially with someone else in the car.," Baker said. "And you don't mess up a nice Rolls like that."

Baker said he had not been able to reach Ross on Monday.

Ross has a Florida arrest history for mostly misdemeanor offenses that include brawling in 2004 and carrying a concealed weapon and marijuana possession in 2008. Florida Department of Law Enforcement online records show he pleaded no contest in those cases and adjudication was withheld.

Before those arrests, Ross was a lawman, which does not help his reputation in the rap industry.

From age 19 until he was 21, he worked as a state corrections officer at the South Florida Reception Center before leaving in June 1997, the Florida Department of Corrections confirmed Monday.

An attorney who has previously represented Ross, Allan Zamren, would not comment.

In 2011, Ross suffered a seizure while traveling on a Delta Airlines flight from Fort Lauderdale to Memphis. (Baker said the cause was "exhaustion.") In March 2012, a man's body was found in the yard of a Miami Gardens home that Ross owns, though police said Ross was not a suspect.

Ross has been one of the formative figures in the development of the Miami rap sound since his 2006 album on Slip-N-Slide Records, "Port of Miami," debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.

Ross has been equally influential as a producer, and his Maybach Music Group label has a roster of acts that frequently sprinkle the Billboard charts, including Meek Mill, Wale and Omarion.

Ross will soon appear on Season 2 of the Starz hit "Magic City," the Mitch Glazer-scripted drama filmed in Miami. Ross is apparently a fan of the show, and an impromptu set visit resulted in Glazer writing Ross into the show in the role of Butterball, the proprietor of an illegal Cuban-American gambling house.

Sean Gilbert, of Fort Lauderdale, is a cameraman on the show and recalls Ross showing up for a daylong shoot in a rough Miami neighborhood without an entourage. Ross was "very low-key and accessible," Gilbert said.

Jeff John, owner of Revolution Live nightclub in Fort Lauderdale's Himmarshee District, has hosted Ross several times, including a sold-out show six months ago for Wale and Meek Mill. Ross got onstage unannounced to do four songs, John said. As far as he knows, Ross didn't get paid.

"He was totally cool, a real nice guy, sitting in the back chilling," John said.

this fat fuck on ever track reppin miami, talking about how much he loves miami, and shoots like all his videos there....................but got the nerve to live in broward county....ol fraud ass nigga take ur fat ass back to dade

seven isles got some fresh homes doe -_-

Yo who is the big booty chick on the first gif, Damn!
 
Yall nggas are weird.

NGGAS IS NOT STAGING SHOOTINGS! Period. gtfoh

It may be hard for nggas to realize, but these nggas dont live in a bubble. They pump gas, live in neighborhoods, and get shot at like eveybody else Lol

Ive SEEN nggas outside clubs shoot in the air. The shyt is believable to me. Also, as its been mentioned, hood nggas dont kill high profile dudes b/c there's more money in extorting them alive. There's a reason why we can count on 1 hand all the real famous dudes who have actually been touched.

People who cant fathom shyt happenign to famous people are weird to me. Same mentality that got people thinkin Whitney, Elvis, n Pac all in Haiti chillin RIGHT NOW. Its subconcious star worship and its fuking weird.

It just looks staged to me cause....

1. 5 o'clock am, Ross and his girl are by themselves as far as we know, his shooters have followed him all the way to this Las Olas, or posted there knowin he was comin through...

2. They fire 20 shots, none hit the car, 1 hits a restaraunt, the car crashes, and they don't roll up on the car to finish the job....

3. I know the footage is sposed to be comin out, but What the fuck did Ross do after the car crashed? Did he stay on the scene? Did him and his girl run? If they ran, you mean to tell me that the shooters just let him go? Nobody saw that big nigga and his girl runnin from the scene of a car wreck?

4. If this isn't staged on Ross part, the shooters or who ever hired them staged it this way as a real ass warning. There's really no reason he should be unharmed in this situation.

Lol at the tape comin out, this shit a shenanigan
