In an interview on Friday with Phoenix, Arizona hip hop station Power 98.3 (KKFR-FM), Ross responded to the rumors of his past employment by simply saying, “Don’t believe the hype.”
“In the game we in, it’s real competitive,” Ross told Power 98.3 FM. “Competitors have to do what they have to do to eat. We making the best music. Y’all seen the BET Awards, y’all saw the magazine. We the biggest in the game. We the best in the game. Just keeping it real. And anytime somebody can attack my character, like I said, you get nothing from the Boss. I don’t give haters the pleasure.“
Ross also said that the discussions about his past amongst the hip hop community is natural.
“When you get to my level, you’re a great conversation piece,” Ross clarified. “I’m big on the blogs, I’m big on the magazines, and I appreciate that as an artist. That’s why I’m in the game. I got in this game to introduce people and to make great music. And that’s what it’s about.”
Ross also made it clear he was no longer involved with Brooklyn rapper Foxy Brown. He’s currently working on his next LP, Deeper Than Rap.

f**k Rick Ross. Peddlin' weed is one thing, but slangin' dope to your own people is just wrong. He ain't an Emcee to me. Just a rapist of Hip Hop & Humanity.

Nobody believes u mr. roberts. I never believe half of the nonsense these clowns say anyways. People act like they are suprised. Its pitiful that these black facing koon acts are polluting the minds of the youth like its glamourous to sell drugs or be a convict when there are still options.
