What made you guys start liking rick ross? Was it 50? Or the east coast sound?

[gee757]

Just curious... when i used to post on here after Port of Miami dropped i couldn't convince someone on here that Ross wasn't wack. If you look back only two things have changed. His flow is the same... lyrically he's the same.... so what was it?

Is 50 cent that powerful that beefing with him can cause people to start liking you?

Or is it that since he started using more of an east coast sound with beats that u dudes like that shit more?

If you ask me Port Of Miami was his best album and it's not even close.... I listen to his albums and wonder what the hell someone could be smokin to say anything otherwise

lol cuuuurry aint even makin musik no mo & ross is ross just makez good musik imo.....

Gee is correct

Rick Ross>>>>>>>>>>50 Cent (right now)

Deeper Than Rap>>>>>>>>>>Get Rich Or Die Tryin

The quality of music, all his album have been of above average(dtr is nea classic). Im thinking teflon don might be the best album of the year(I dont even like trying to talk about cds before hearing it)

 

[VulcanRaven]

Ross was and still is wack.

Ross just makes dope music. I been a fan since I first heard Push it, didn't have anything to do with 50 and Ross definitely did not have an "eastcoast" sound on Port of Miami. Ross is becoming Mr. Consistent because every album improves upon the last. And POM is not his best album, DTR is with Trilla coming in a close second...........Teflon Don sounds like it's gonna be the best "mafioso" rap album ever released.

^^trilla better then POM... dam i don't see how.... maybe i'm biased cause i used to live in Fla and POM got that sound to it and was way more poppin.... but either way... the beats were harder on POM... more classic tracks by far.... and it was straight through bangin unlike trilla

 

[YamoleySensei]

Port of Miami is what made me a fan...that album was surprisingly decent. His other shit, Trilla & DTR were weak as hell.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

It was his features.... the singles he released on POM was by himself.Now his last two cds have mostly features on it for the singles and the other songs on the albums.

Well to me POM was the "rawest" album Ross put out, Trilla had the best "street" sound, and DTR was the most polished album. And Trilla was fire to me; Billionaire, This is the life, Here I am, Boss, All I have in this World, Maybach Music, and Luxury Tax are all dope as hell

^^was startin to think i was the only one who noticed that.... trilla was garbage compared to POM

 

[kingofdetroit]

His music ultimately is just bangin' and I can't front. Ross has the best rap album of the moment IMO.

P.S. I still think Before I Self Destruct bangs hard in 50's defense, he's just not as hard as he used to be with all that money.

Progression thats why. He sticks to his lane and is mastering being that dude. He is reaching that point that when u see his name on a track whether u like him or not you WILL listen to it. Thats when u know u reaching elite status.
