Rick Ross received criticism for threatening to kill Donald Trump on the Black Market cut “Free Enterprise.” There were reports that Wal-Mart pulled the project because of the line.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Ross explains the meaning of the lyric, “Assassinate Trump like I’m Zimmerman / Now accept these words as they came from Eminem.”
“I would never advocate violence on Trump or anyone,” the Miami rapper says. “It’s lyrical assassination. That’s me being a poet, putting words together in my art form, with no violence in my heart at all. Clarify that. Matter of fact, my cameraman was Trump’s caddy at his golf course for five years, and he says Trump is cool as fuck.”
He is asked if Eminem gets away with more violent content than other rappers because of the color of his skin.
“I think that’s a huge possibility,” Ross says. “That’s why I said that line, so maybe this question would come up. But I’m not really into a White-Black race card. Some of my best friends are White.”
Rick Ross Explains Current Relationship With 50 Cent
Elsewhere in the interview, Rick Ross explains his current relationship with 50 Cent, born Curtis Jackson III. Ross and 50 Cent reignited their feud the past few months going back-and-forth on Instagram, 50 Cent mocking Rick Ross’ Black Market album sales and suing Rick Ross for using “In Da Club” on his Renzel Remixes project.
“At this point, my relationship with Curtis is really amusing, due to the fact that I’m the biggest L he ever took,” Ross says. “I’m still enjoying life. My kids love me. I’m blessed. And when it comes to Curtis, it’s just unfortunate.”
The Miami rapper says that he is “not happy” for 50 Cent for several reasons, including his SMS Promotions company filing for bankruptcy, his personal bankruptcy and his strained relationship with his son, Marquise.
“But to see him parading around, still able to hold his head up every day, with all of that weighing on him — that makes me happy,” Ross says. “I admire him for being able to hold his head up in a city that has revoked all of his passes. We’ve had a quite enjoyable past, and I still smile when I see him.”
Rick Ross Says He Is A “Star Wars” Fan
Rick Ross also explains being a fan of Star Wars. The saga released Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the seventh installement of the saga, in December.
“I got an eight-inch Darth Vader on my left side, man,” the rapper says of one of his tattoos. “And my favorite car out of my entire collection is a ’57 Chevy that I named Vader. I had it totally restored.”
Ross says that growing up, watching Star Wars was a family affair.
“My father watched all the Star Trek and Star Wars that you could imagine, along with the martial arts,” he says. “So I was into all that as a youngster, and I always rooted for the bad guy.”

For additional Rick Ross and 50 Cent coverage, watch the following DX Daily:
Ross’s persona is a 100 percent fiction, he is the biggest troll the hip hop game has ever took, except he has been lying for so long he actually believes he is the character he plays. Dude’s a chump and he’s enjoyed his share of Ls.
How u know what goes on his head and who he believes himself to be? Are u in his head? Nah right. Just stfu and Take this L, chump
Actually bks finest is right, when you listen to Ross in interviews he really believes he’s this big bad tough x drug dealer that the streets love and support, and we all that’s so far from the truth
Lol yeah these niggas so smart they can read minds now
You must have ate to much wing stop wings sprinkled with Ross pubic hairs on them you groupy super Stan ass nigga
Your smart *dj khaled*
Your smart *dj khaled voice*
*fixed

Bawse!
Roasted 50 with the so subtle ether
I commend ross for being the bigger man in this shit with 50 its a sad situation tho because its moved so far from music but to correct ross 50 biggest loss wasnt to him it was to the game because look how far game went after g unit movies to his own label to still ten years after so many doubted his talent to drop a very well put together documentary 2 album ijs
Lol game label!? How many albums wackwall sold? Game is barely relevant u have no idea get game dick out your mouth
this guy is so delusional. fif is good in any hood. officer ricky has more Ls than anyone in rap. shit his just broke up with that stripper fiance again and she fucked his homies, gunplay still trying to find his chain
not even a big em fan, but ricky em was banned from countries and had his dick cheney lines blocked, when he said he was gonna kill him, it has nothing to do about ur blackness..
Shout out to Trick Trick and the goons in Detroit who wouldn’t let Ross enter the concert venue to perform a couple years ago…made that fraud get back on the plane scared for his life and get the fuck out of there
the biggest L 50 ever took was getting shot
I agree….getting shot 9 times would be anyones biggest lost. 50 still hasn’t taken the L’s Officer Ricky has taken
50 runs shit and FUCK Dr.collins
50 was a goon n now is a rich goon he serious in the streets for real n still has a say! Anyone who know about queens know this… Ross well I don’t even need to say a word everyone knows about his past n present lol
getting ran outta detroit is a real L, 50 aint ever get rain out of no where! shit the gangster disciples ended the first and only ever MMG tour
That’s true.. As a GD from Chicago I can attest to this.. we didn’t appreciate him using Larry Hoover name without hitting his old lady.
U ain’t no Damn GD you fucking fraud , gangstaz got better shit to do then post on hiphopdx comment board
that trump explanation just shows how much of a fraud this guy really is, he wont stand behind anything he says because none of it is real, just an act
I would think getting shot in the face would be his “Biggest L” in my opinon. Having some fat ex corrections officer talk shit about you cant be that bad
Officer Ricky needs to stop.. Would love to see 50 smack him out
