Rick Ross has been the target of threats by Gangster Disciples and
was recently the target of a drive-by shooting in Ft. Lauderdale that
resulted in the Rolls Royce that he was in to crash into a building.
The recent threats and attempts to take his life caused Uncle Luke, another fellow Miami native to speak up in this open letter to Ricky:

Dear Rick Ross:
As someone who survived several rap
beefs, I’m going to give you some advice. You need to seriously address
the threats and attempts on your life. You have worked hard to become a
big name in hip-hop. You’ve paid your dues and you’ve grown lyrically
since the release of your debut album, Port of Miami, in 2006. You’ve
arrived, buddy.
But all this gangster bullshit is
jeopardizing your career. No club or arena is going to risk people
getting shot. You can forget about doing any tours or CD signings. And
if you can’t make money, watch how fast Warner Bros. Records turns on
you. I know from experience how venues and the music industry would like
to black ball you.
You have the Gangster Disciples
breathing down your neck because you’ve named-dropped Larry Hoover, the
gang’s founder, in your music. Unlike the record and book publishing
industries, these bad dudes don’t understand the concept of public
domain. They see you getting rich forever by rapping about their leader,
and they don’t like it. That’s why they’re on YouTube talking about how
you need to go see them and cut a check.
It’s a shame you can’t enjoy life
without spending part of your earnings on heavy security or risking your
freedom by purchasing an arsenal. Remember, that’s what landed T.I. and
Lil Wayne in prison. You don’t want that to happen to you. However,
those are the consequences of rapping about being something you’re not.
Hip-hop has a rich history of college
guys who never committed a crime rapping about moving kilos of cocaine
and taking out snitches. Every gangster rapper takes on the role of a
real hood legend to build up street cred. But I don’t want you to fall
into the trap of believing you are really a gangster.
Trust me, you don’t want to go out like Biggie Smalls or Tupac. It’s time you squash your beefs.
