Exclusive: Rick Ross Denies Ex-Correctional Officer Claims
Published Monday, July 14, 2008 9:10 PM
By Charlie Rem

Rick Ross has charged that images depicting him as a young correctional officer are totally fabricated, the result of savvy graphic artists.

 

He told AllHipHop.com exclusively, "My life is 100% real. These online hackers putting a picture of my face when I was a teenager in high school on other peoples' body. If this s**t was real don't you think they would have more specifics, like dates and everything?”

 

Earlier, a single image was in circulation on the internet suggesting that Ross previously worked as a correctional officer at an unnamed jail or prison.

 

The Miami-based rap artist, known for his gritty street rhymes, said envious people have conspired against him for his success and stature.

 

“I'm in the entertainment business and a lot of people who like to hate because I'm on top of my game,” Ross told AllHipHop.com. “Like I said before my life is 100% real. I live by this die by this. Fake pictures are created by the fake, meant to entertain the fake."

 

While the image appears very realistic, boxer Oscar De La Hoya was involved in a similar scandal that made the pugilist appear to be a cross dresser.

 

The images were proven to be doctored and De La Hoya was completely exonerated. Ross is already moving on.

 

He stated that he was working on a new album called Deeper Than Rap, which would come at an undetermined date in the near future.

i agree with ahanti 7. majority of the "gangster rappers" roll with gangsters and no body expects the gangster to come out a go public that he was sell'n dope or move'n weight and shot at dudes. like i said earlier ross make quality music cant take that from him, the pic is real unless they can show who they really covered up and thats that.

Ok, so who gives a damn if he was supposedly a correctional officer..that means he's had a job before..that's respected entirely...and just 'cause a dude got a job don't mean he ain't subjected to street life..just 'cause somebody's working a 9-5 don't say nothing about their life and their involvments. But if they fake pictures than scratch it off and move on.

*********************

Co-Sign to the person who also said you can only rap about it if you involved with the government or something like that....because be honest....you cant be rapping about shooting people and killing and selling KEYS to across the streets and not get busted etc....

Real talk its deeper than music. I see a lot of people saying so what just make music. If this guy has never touched a kilo, never busted at dudes, never caught a charge for drug possession, etc..Why glorify a lifestyle you never lived. Rap affects young youth I don't care what nobody says it does. Young cats see videos and want to go out and do what they see and hear. For instance tight jeans, tight shirts, where do you think all of this stuff came from black dudes were never wearing tight clothes till Jim Jones, Kanye, etc...The point is Rick Ross is basically glorifying the drug dealer lifestyle while never lived that life. They see dude on tv flashy jewels cars women and they think he attained that stuff from selling drugs so they like damn I wanna be like him let me go out here and do that. If he worked a regular 9 to 5 then he should be rapping about going down the right path cause thats the life he led. HOW CAN YALL RESPECT A MAN THAT LIES ABOUT WHO HE REALLY IS?? FAKE THUG I DIDNT KNOW YOU GET RESPECT FOR THAT?

Can you imagine if a nigga was a real C.O. then he quit that and became a crack dealer foreal? WOW, Now that would be gangsta! Imagine the headlines, "Correction Officer changes his name to a well known crack dealer from the west coast and cakes off selling weight, then flips his cake talking about in on records". LOL This nigga is a Fraud, If you so called Hip HOp fans can't see the clownery in the game then your eyes are for looking at circus shit.

Again, his whole CO stint was already known. I'm pretty sure that most of you already knew about it too. So why is it a shock? As for these rappers and their lying/entertainment. Yeah, a lot of them exaggerate/lie. But, at the same time, not all of them are lying. Everybody and their mamas rap now. So not all of them are BSing.

Man I lose all respect for dude not because he was a correctional officer but because he lies about it. I heard about this shit almost a year ago and it never bothered me. A artist is just that a artist painting his image. I like 50 cent but that's some CB4 shit name yourself after a real gangsta in BK. Same goes for Rick Ross. Dude has been trying to get on since the 90's come on man correctional officers hustle too. I've never seen a photoshop to where a nig put the fat going over the collar. His best move would've been keep it moving the teen boppers whose buying this shit don't care about his image he can kiss a nig in the mouth and still sale 1. 5. Rick Ross K.I.M keep it moving nig.

I heard the same thing awhile ago. What's sad is he still lying to kick it? Everytime they interview his 'history' change. I mean akon got exposed, who's next. we're in a different era everything is out for people to find. I could care less if he worked at wendy's. that pic isn't photoshop. if they wouldv'e photoshop something why not do a whole pic instead of a face pic.

First off, like somebody said earlier...a C.O. is the equivalent of a security guard.  Its a job.

Second off, just cause you work for the law, doesn't mean you abide by it.  

Third off, if this is a Photoshop'd image using his high school pic, then it should be able to provide the original pic that they stole his image from.

Last but not least,  who cares.

....Oh yeah,

Why would you waste time being mad at this nigga, that you don't even know?  I would hope that niggaz ain't stupid enough to get on tape ( go on record ) and confess to ANY crimes that they ACTUALLY did anyway.  Yall niggaz get so caught up in what you consider to be REAL, that you would snitch on yaself just to prove a point.  REAL...SMART criminals operate below the radar.  I don't take any of these rap dudes seriously cause at the end of the day..IT'S ENTERTAINMENT.  Hell....I'm tired of seeing these dumb fucks getting on these Smack DVDs and songs talking all of this shit and then bitchin' when the alphabet boys hem they ass up.  Quit co-signing this stupidity.  Yall makin' us all look bad.  If you really doing that shit, do us all a favor and keep ya mouth closed.   They already think we all sell dope anyway.

Ok, so who gives a damn if he was supposedly a correctional officer..that means he's had a job before..that's respected entirely...and just 'cause a dude got a job don't mean he ain't subjected to street life..just 'cause somebody's working a 9-5 don't say nothing about their life and their involvments. But if they fake pictures than scratch it off and move on.

I completely agree and cosign on that one! Bottom line, he made his name in the industry and I feel his music...like are his sales supposed to drop because of this? I don't think so!

rick ross is fake, and lots C.O.s are snitches and beat the fuk out of handcuffed prisoners amongst other foul acts, im not bashing C.O.s but its just wrong how bad some act,... and i never liked rick ross, hes fat (and acts like its an accessory) and stole his name from a real dealer, and his raps are trash compared to those good mainstream rappers (i.e nas, jay, lupe, mos, kweli, and at times 50 cent+ kanye, and others) so he's fake already its just that too many ppl are fooled into buy his shyt, but watever hell i'd do that same shyt for the paper so fuk it...

In response to your comment I just wanted to say this. Rick Ross is not even in the same category as lupe, mos and kweli-those are conscious rappers. He is also not in the same category as Jay-Z, Nas or 50 cent or some of the other you named. Its like apples to oranges. These dudes rep the North (kweli, jay, nas, 50) their style is completely different. He is from the South-MIA-305. If you want to compare artists from that area then you will see he stands out and he has accomplished alot and regardless the bitchassness needs to cease. Let that man do him and be whatever he is or was. Dont change the fact that nigga makin money! Deal with it!

I know for a fact that all the stuff these rappers talk about is the truth. The story I'm about to tell happen to me over the course of a weekend trip. I couldn't mention the names becuase the situation was just so real.

Y***g  J***y says that he was in big shoot out out on the highway. I think he was hanging out of the window while his coupe was going sideways. I was there and saw the whole thing. His bandana flew off and hit my windshield. I stashed it for him because real reconignze real. Later on that night I was headed down to Miami and I bumped into R**s. He smacked me in my face with a thousand dollar stack and screamed out "TRILLA". Then he told me to hold 16 bricks for him until he got back from out of town. I didn't want to hold all that weight so I decided to flip it. I went back to a small town just outside of GA and bumped into j***y again. I pulled out the bandana that I stashed for him earlier. He said " I know you, you that real ass nigga that was the highway with me" I was like yeeeeeaaaahhh. After talking to him for few hours he decided to buy the bricks from me that I got from R**s. J***y said that he would only buy them off me if agreed to sell them for 16.5 a piece. I was cool with that. I camped out in a motel whie j***y made 32 trips back and fourth to my room. (He was really paranoid, and he insisted on moving one brick per trip). Finally the deal was done. I went back to Miami with quater million in cash and about 15k worth of chronic. I went back to the same spot that I met R**s at and one of his folks told me that his "boss" wanted to see me. I showed his "boss" the money and he told me to keep it becuase real reconignze real. He told me to take the cash and leave the smoke. I didn't really know what he was talking about , but I didn't ask any questions. I then proceeded to make it rain at various strips clubs all throughout the south before I ened up broke again. All in all it was a good weekend, but next time I think I might take a plane.

Ok, you're right, a job is a job.  Why is he lying about it then.  Y'all cosigning something that he said he didn't even do.  Did he do it?  He lying so much in his rhymes he probably believing that shit.  Being REAL is not doing what u say in your rhymes, being REAL is not being ashamed of your past or present.  Being REAL is standing up for what u believe in. Being real is not lying about what u had to do to get money.  If I bagged grocerys, I'm not gonna make a song saying fuck grocery baggers because that's what I had to do to get by.  See, yall don't get it.  REAL recognize REAL

@Realestnicca
It's like this..... I don't know the nigga, neva met the nigga, don't buy his music, have no financial affiliation or obligation to the nigga..nor does his actions take money out my pocket or food off my families plate.  As far as I'm concerned the nigga is a figment of my imagination.  The only beef I have with the nigga is that all he talks about is sellin' dope and I think that is not a good look for us as a people.  Yeah, we know its entertainment or probably exaggerated, but OUTSIDERS and IDIOTS take his word for 100% truth.  At the end of the day, me caring that much about the validity of what that man talks about is the equivalent of trivial girly gossip.  Instead of me worrying about how "street" legit he is, I'm more concerned with how his message and actions affect my people as a whole.  To me that is the only REAL that matters. IMO.

ok I hear what u saying and it sounds good but if that's the case, he has no place as a voice in hip hop.  That's what I'm trying to stress.  I don't like fake aything especially if it's a voice and that voice has a plaform.  Keep it 100.  If he's a co then ok but why u lying about it.  U ashamed?  What kinda message u sendin by saying u ashamed of making an honest living?
