Why is Rick Ross ice-cold right now?

Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 2006 - Wikipedia

how many of these nikkaz are still relevant in 2019?

He’s older and less active. Ross use to be a top 3 presents on the net with activity and fukkery, he’s more chill now and less popping

He got so many investments and shyt that putting on his energy into an album cycle not really the move for him now

Future said the same thing during this album cycle.

He prolly makin good money outside of rap from his investments so hes not too involved in the music side anymore

I mean I remember watchin his first videos, his whole rap persona was that of a boss, larger than life.. however that CO shyt killed him in the long run

Only reason he didnt fall off the map was cuz he smart and made some solid connections within the industry i.e. jay n diddy

Plus he signed wale and meek mill.... and was featured in many hits

But I feel like he was never a big sellin artist... think he only reached single plat at the height of his career and he never headlined a big venue tour

His caricature like persona is what he will always be remembered for, never was a top seller n even tho he wasnt wack he wasnt dope neither

Good mic presence and voice but basic as fukk skills otherwise

Just like anybody else who debuted around the same time he did. He’s a older artist so he’s not trying to fit in. His verse on Meek’s What’s Free shows he’s still got it.

All of his singles have been flopping since 2013, there is no real hype for his projects. He was pushing Florida Boy & Green Gucci Suit and both them shyts pulled a Ginobili. He got Meek Mill signed & he's well-invested outside of rap so he still getting money, but musically he's ice cold right now. I grew up on Rozay so he holds sentimental value to me pause, but is it over for the biggest boss?

his style grew stale tbh

Can’t name too many rappers with albums better than Rather You Than Me

you don't listen to enough rap then

 

[UncleTomFord15]

Florida boy was flames

 

[Alvin]

The game needs some grown man luxury rap

nipsey can feel that niche tbh, it would be dope from being a gang member to "bossing up" he got the beats, lyrics and cadence imo for it. Not to mention his moves off the mic in the business world.

His time came and went. Somehow the only really relevant one from that era is Gucci Mane everybody else is done making noise at the top of the game

Nah wayne sold what 600k first week last year. Crazy considering wayne came out in the 90's

 

[Musty]

Green Gucci suit green Gucci suit!

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

he'll be the go to for features like 2 Chainz/Jay Z

 

[King Poetic]

Businesses outside of rap

Nobody buying rap outside of Kendrick and drake..

Ross should just focus on his other business ventures

 

[Rozay Oro]

Same reason t.i. and jeezy ice cold. They had they time, they had solid careers. Ross hasn't had a mainstream hit in years. Ross still got a decent core fan base so he will be ok

shyt I was shocked that wayne did those crazy numbers

Well crafted work and not saturating with original music will always prevail. I'm not even a wayne fan but enjoyed Carter 4 and 5

The Booth is late as usual. Ross hasn't be hot for years.
