GOD IS THE GREATEST. 

Rick Ross is known as one of hip-hop’s biggest moguls. The Florida-bred rapper boasts a healthy slew of investments, including his most prominent venture as a franchise owner of multiple Wingstop locations throughout the country. He’s also the CEO of his very own label Maybach Music Group (MMG), which is home to artists such as Wale, Meek Mill, and more.

Born William Leonard Roberts II, Ross grew up “across the bridge,” in a Miami at odds with the glitzy nightclubs and yachts of South Beach. In the aftermath of the 1980 race riots, he came of age at the height of the city’s crack epidemic. All the while he honed his musical talent, overcoming setback after setback until a song called “Hustlin’” changed his life forever.

From his first major label deal to the controversies, health scares, arrests and feuds he had to transcend along the way, a revealing portrait of one of the biggest stars in the rap game and an intimate look at the birth of an artist.

Elsewhere for Ross, he’s been busy assisting with the launch of Wingstop’s new online-only shop Thighstop, which saw the introduction of chicken thighs to the restaurant’s standard menu to help deal with the chicken wing shortage.
