Rick Ross - Deeper Than Rap (official album thread)

[Indiana]

I just don't see the appeal of this album or trilla. Port of Miami was a classic. But this new shit is trash except valley of death, usual suspects, mafia music. Major dissapointment.

 

[500sd]

i cant lie...mafia music is a slap
hes got a sick lyric game in that song

 

[Meta4iCAL]

Point is Ross isnt so I dont havew to speak on it but if you want to hear my 25 cent here it is.

Nice try but you got it all wrong. I said I dont care about his past job.


You on a different topic and situation.

Also

a past job is in no comparision to a conviction. Some yall on here support hastak, spm and they are convicted pedolphilers. Most of us still listen to R Kelly even though he wasnt found guilty hold on we all love 2 pac he was convicted of sex crime, muthafuckas support elton john and he a stone fag hold on, we like x-raided and he a convicted murderer, what bout yall boy sycx yall support him this can go on for years. . anyway it goes this a different topic.

word... and how bout Michael Jackson... Thriller was the SLAP... and don't lie and say it wasn't

 

[Indiana]

That C.O shit doesn't matter, i know dudes that are in the game but also work at the county jail.

 

[Darkshowdown]

I AGREE

shit Thriller and OFF THE WALL still some my top favorite albums ever.

thank you. how you think most of that shit gets thru the walls?

 

[T-Rip]

he barely sold more then Jadakiss, he aint no boss lol. He will probably only sell 50,000 in the 2nd week just like how i called it when i said Jada would only sell like 43,000 the following week

lol i think I pretty much called it, 51,100 aint shit for 2nd weeks sales. He can now lower himself to "clerk" status cuz hes far from a boss

 

[mrkmaidog]

heres the new 2nd video "all i really want" ft. the dream. this has top 10 radio/video hit all over it. great video with lots of eye candy. reminds me of snoop's "beautiful" video. say what u wanna but damn this track bumps, lovin the remake of "love come down" with a 09 hiphop twist. ross still the top hiphop selling hiphop artist this week with over 200k sold, not bads at alls, looks mos definitely like another gold plaque coming...this single looks like it will keep the sales coming in.

[Joey]

if you wanna check out more of his stuff check out "Trilla" that album is dope as fuck

honestly to me this album was kinda ehhh except 3 or 4 songs...

 

[T-Rip]

^^^ At least someone that likes Rick Ross keeps it real, i listen to this shit just cuz all the talk about it and come to find out it was all hype. This album is not that good.

yup... I've either seen people say the album is dope as fuck from people who like Rick Ross or say it's wack because he used to be a CO

I'm just judgin based on the music... I slapped the shit out of "Trilla" but this has 2 songs I really like... "Rich Off Cocaine" and "Usual Suspects" which are both dope as fuck though... a couple other cool songs... but nothin else great

 

[MaKaVeLi_420]

Yea I felt a similar way meta, actually this isn't getting any rotation and it hasn't been played for maybe 3 weeks, there's way too much dope stuff out right now....

 

[Teddy X]

The album is tight in my book....Rich Off Cocaine is the joint...

 

[mrkmaidog]

best album i've heard so far this year. high in replay value with the best production heard so far.

 

[Supa SAV'D OUTT]

DONT LIKE THE ALBUM THAT MUCH BUT RICH OFF COCAINE IS SLAPPIN

 

[mrkmaidog]

Ross moved 6,000 units last week...

My mom won't stop playing Rick Ross in the car. One time I tried to jump out in the middle of the freeway because my headphones blew out from turning it up so loud and I couldn't escape the constant "ROSS !" shouts.

I thought he was cool for a while, didn't really listen to him, but now he gives me a headache
