Trick Daddy, Rick Ross Celebrate Miami
Published Saturday, July 19, 2008 2:36 PM
By Chris Richburg

Miami rap stars Trick Daddy and Rick Ross will be among the stars celebrating the city’s growing entertainment scene at this year’s Miami Stand Up.

 

The event is set to kick off at 11 p.m. Sunday (July 20) with red carpet arrivals at the Mansion nightclub in Miami Beach.

 

Special performances will follow the 11:45 p.m. arrivals at 1 a.m.

 

Hosted by actress Gabrielle Union and model Deelishis, Miami Stand Up will cap off a weekend of events that include a private yacht and bowling party.

 

"Miami is looking real good right now and we're going to have a good time this weekend," Trick Daddy stated.

 

Other celebrities set to attend the event include Minnesota Vikings lineman Bryant "Big Mac" McKinnie and former Pretty Ricky member Pleasure P ---who serve as co-CEOs of Swagga Entertainment --- rap diva Trina, DJ Khaled and Dunk Ryders.

 

For McKinnie, the success of entertainers like Rick Ross and Trina further add to the event’s festive atmosphere.

 

Ross' latest album Trilla debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart while Trina garnered success on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart with a number one debut of her latest release Still da Baddest.

 

While the event is supposed to be a peaceful, tensions between Trick Daddy and Rick Ross remain high, due to rumors that Trick Daddy allegedly claimed that Ross was once a prison guard.

media-sponsored beefs, i tell ya! It ain't been confirmed nowhere that Trick even said Ross used to be a CO, but that rumor or truth, whatever been around Miami for YEARS, it is not new. The man in the interview SAID that Trick said this, no video, no audio, no transcript. He say she say?! This is why you go directly to the horse's mouth instead of runnin' yours in the media, who eat it up until something tragic happens. Anyway, the concert should be good, and hopefully both ppl act their ages about the situation.

Rick Ross on "Trilla Intro" recorded and released months before "media internet beef":

"Shout out to Trick Daddy/ I got love fool/ We both millionaires/ Let's make some thug moves"

Hopefully this will be a peaceful celebration. Lets end all this senseless shit in hip-hop....its destroying the culture.

Why do artist have to beef and be in competition with each other any way?  There is enough money to go around.  Everything should not always have to be a competition.  If you are good at what you do, you are good no matter what.  You should not have to prove that to any one and you damn sure should not care what people think (especially if you know in your heart that you are good).  Why don't artist come together, make money and stop all of the beefs and turf wars, etc.?  There is no need to dis each other all the time.  You make your money, you make your money and you make your money.  It's as simple as that.  No need to cause unnecessary animosity.  For what, in the end, it doesn't make a difference any way.  All it does is cause a lot gossip, confusion and cause a lot of people to get hurt even killed.  

Prime example look and the Tupac and Biggy situation.  All of that dumb stuff and now neither of them are with us any longer.  Was the fued really worth the lives of two obviously very well liked talented famous rap artist/stars?  NOT!

To me, in my opinion Tupac was the best rapper to ever hit the airwaves and on top of that he was very intellectual.  He was much more intelligent then people gave him credit for.  If only he did not have the thug/gangster mentality.  The boy was going places.  Even though this is my opinion, which I am entitled to, both of them were really good artist that made lots of money and really did not need the fued and they sure did not need people instigating more trouble.

Again, another two artists surrounded by a bunch of negativity and it cost both of them there lives.  What a shame!

Most of the rap artist need to stop the negavitity and be more postive and associate themselves with more positive individuals.

Keep your head up!

Rick Ross has now joined the likes of Akon, Plies and Vanilla Ice.  People who completely fabricate their past and get exposed.  Rick Ross cannot come back from this.  His career is over.  That picture by itself is a knockout blow.  That's what these dumb niggas get for not being themselves.

TRUTHFROMDABOOT said:

Since when does being a CO makes you less street, LMAO at you dudes, CO is a shitty ass job!  Not like he was a Cop or a sheriff.  I know plenty of hood dudes that move major products as a CO and made hella grip doing it.  We all know drugs are in prisons how do you think the majority of it gets there.  Dudes getting $10 a gram of some dirt $200 a gram for some white thats brown as dirt from being cut sooooooo much.  Lots of dudes are hustlin from the inside.  Not say Ross was doing this but being a CO don't discredit him at all.  Jacking Freeway Ricky Ross name from the jump discredited him in my book.

TRUTHFROMDABOOT= REAL TALK

@TRUTHFROMDABOOT

I don't think niggas is clowing him for being a CO, I thinks it's cause he deny the whole thing.  That's what make him look like a fraud.  If he would've said I was a CO, I had to pay my bills, I think niggas would've respected that.  Him lying about this though, aint a good look.

FLA850 said:

Yes... him lying about it and not admitting is what is making him look bad right now, and i'm a fan but not a dick rider like most are!  There are plenty of men and women that work and sell drugs... he just needs to admit it and be done with it because it's not that serious.
