RUH!!!!

well, I've discovered how rick ross is so successful, he's figured out a formula on how to make good music without been the most talented artist (no offence ricky, but your not hov or nas are you). i am a fan of ricky but there is a lot of similarities. but it works, i'm listening to the holy ghost in my buggatti

1. start each feature verse with a hitting first line

- 'got so many shades they thought i had a lazy eye'

2. go 'RUHHHH' so folks know you are on the track

3. deliver simple verses that are seemingly hooks (see B.M.F)

4. say one catchy line then repeat it immediately after by shouting

- 'phone ringing gotta be the mexicans, PHONE RINGING GOTTA BE THE MEXICANS'

5. when on a track with someone else, on one of their memorable lines say it again, straight after by shouting it too

- Drake - 'bitch you wasn't with me shooting in the gym' ricky 'BITCH YOU WASN'T WITH ME SHOOTING IN THE GYM'

6. when the beat breathes shout a catchy line as the beat then kicks in

- 'SON OF A BITCH THEN I MADE A GREAT ESCAPE'

7. use the same lines but change 1 key word

- 'i'm not a star, somebody lied i got a chopper in my car' started as, 'i'm not a star, somebody lied i got a pistol in my car so don't make it come alive'

8. get a guest verse on a massive hit that someone else carries and start your verse by going 'RUUHHHHH' then following up with an intricate drug based line.

- 'i'm buring purple flowers. its burning my chest'

9. at any point name drop diddy

10. mention your money at any opportunity.

If you follow these 10 steps, you won't be ricky ross or have his career. he is a one off. only works for him, french is trying it. not happening though, is it?

Inspite of this, Rick Ross has had the best 8-bar verse ever in rap. gossip gossip....
