As far as your question, we've already debated about this many times before. There have historically been three CEO's from this area who have pushed artists in urban music to great success. 1. Berry Gordy (Motown), 2. Barry Hankerson (R. Kelly, Aalliyah) & 3. Marshall Mathers (Shady)

No Skylar Grey or Em feats, no Alex Da Kid production just street anthems and music that the black community would listen to most. I mean from Hustlin and Push it, to the Boss and Here I am, Magnificent, Super High, MC Hammer, and BMF etc. Even though he consistently goes gold while artists who make wacker music go platinum, Ross still manages to put out a quality product that HIS fanbase will enjoy without compromising himself musically. Will this change with his next album, I doubt it but we'll have to wait and see. I do know SELF MADE's track list is what you'd expect from any Ross album. Ross is still doing shows at black clubs and HBCUs.....something most other mainstream rappers are not. So the question remains, amongst all this hype about only white kids supporting hip-hop, is Ross the last rapper left that trusts the black community for financial support?? Discuss
Props to Ross but Nas got thz..... Common and Cube deserves mention too -

Unlike you, I have no reason to lie or try to change up what actually happened. Oh and FYI, Diddy and Ross were not even sitting next to each other.

Glenn Rice been eating good.
Plenty of celebrities showed up, including Diddy, Gloria Estefan and rappers Drake and Rick Ross.
? was funny as hell, my uncle was like "who the hell is that" every time a rapper popped up and me and bro was like "there go so-and-so".
Khaled was out there with a bad ? tho' -
Lmao i like Ross but some of you act like dude is Dead Prez or Ice Cube, Ross is a good rapper, but lets not try paint him as some righteous political rapper who makes music who solely cater to conscious black folk.
nuthn but a cosign. Ross has improved hz content since he came to the game, he deserves credit and respect but not at the expense of Nas,Pac,Talib,Mutulu Olugbala,Krs,Immortal technique,Jay Elec or even Brand Nubian. -

waddup family! It aint like im tryna hate on Ross. I went to hz show when he came down to cape. And like i said it wuz all love.
Ross hasnt buckd the trend/gone against the grain like Pac or even Cube did but stilldreamin wants to put Ross on the same level as these hiphop deities.
What if most blacks who go to a Ross concerts aint conscious heads and them whites who go to a Talib or Gza show hav a John lennon heart and character?
If i wuz a conscious rapper i would never be happy if my concerts wuz attended by Gucci mane/soulja boy/50 snitch clones. As long as you identify wit the struggle from whichever continent im down wit that -

I love when a ? puts "white people" and "? " in the same sentence, I prefer to say Black folks and cracka's but thats just me.
Catering to white folks is a concept that most whites and clueless Blacks cant understand.Lmao i like Ross but some of you act like dude is Dead Prez or Ice Cube, Ross is a good rapper, but lets not try paint him as some righteous political rapper who makes music who solely cater to conscious black folk.
I dont think anybody is foolish enough to compare Rozay to Dead Prez or Ice Cube, the T/S/ is simply praising him for making Soulful Black music without the white-washing and pandering to the Pop demographic.
Are you doing duets with Pussycat dolls or with Chrisette Michelle??
Do you have Raphael Saadiq on your hooks or Justin Timberlake??
Are you doing multiple joints with Erykah Baduh or multiple joints with Emenim
Raekwon or Bruno Mars
Styles P. & Jadakiss or Linkin Park
Cee Lo Green or Kid Cudi
Trey Songz or Mr. Hudson
Jon Legend or Luke Steele
Are you signing Meek Milz or Pauly D.
Is it "Black mans Dream" or "Ghetto Techno"??
Foxy Brown & Elise Neal or Paris Hilton and Chelsea Handler??
Unity or division?? Men or Munkeez??
Lets not paint Rick Ross as a socio-political rapper trying to edutain Black folks, lets just accept the fact that he dosent cater and pander to the white buying public or the pop demographic like 95% of the Gold & Platinum artists out today. -

aight. I get you now. Thanks for the drop. -
If suburban White people stopped buying Rick Ross Album's and Singles you think he can still sell Gold?
C'mon now don't be stupid he needs his white fan base from the suburbs to sell Gold -
I believe his concert audience is black but his buying audience ie albums aint that much difference percentage wise from white and blacks.

Keep it trill though white ? love them some Rick Ross classy, intelligent, educated, nice white women? no
overweight hood rat white girls? yes -

Are your arrogant and grandiose claims a result of excessive drug-abuse or the ramblings of a Europeon troll seeking attention?
Maybe you peoples desire to be accepted forces you to make claims that you cant validate.
You dont know about Afrikan-Amerikan buying power but its at $1.1 trillion and climbing, we are not all poor and destitute like you fantasize about. We spend 9 cents of every dollar in U.S. circulation.
I refuse to let some foreigner act like they know how Black folks spend their money especially you overseas clowns. -
