Rick Ross knows a thing or two about taking care of your business and bossing up. Last week the Maybach Music Group boss went on Instagram Live to give his thoughts on Scottie Pippen venting his frustrations with former teammate and NBA legend Michael Jordan, and he makes it clear he disagrees with him.
According to Pippen and his new memoir Unguarded, MJ got paid $10 million for The Last Dance documentary that aired April 2020 on ESPN, and the rest of his teammates that appeared on it received nothing. Ross caught wind of the claims and told the six-time All-Star he should’ve bossed up 30 years ago.
“The first thing that come to my mind is fuck you, Scottie Pippen. You ain’t handling your business when you was negotiating your own contract 30 years ago,” Rick Ross said. “You got fucked and what you want, Mike to negotiate your contract? Then when it came to this documentary, you got fucked again waited two years to say I got fucked.
“Nah, first thing that comes to my mind is don’t be in the documentary if they ain’t got a bag for me. I [have] stepped back from a lot of shit before when they said, ‘Hey, Rozay, will you donate the money to charity or whatever?’ Nah, I got my own charities to donate to.”
Ross continued to say if everyone is on the same team and hits the end goal of winning a championship six different times, it’s on the person to make the best of the situation presented to them.
“You can’t blame that on nobody else,” he added. “You can’t live your life and then end up in a predicament and blame that on anybody else. You got to stand on what you put out there. Stand on. That’s what makes you a boss. Win, lose or draw.”
Pippen details his relationship with Jordan in the new memoir that takes a deep dive into The Last Dance and the success of the 1990s Bulls Dynasty. The NBA Hall of Famer felt the documentary focused only on MJ instead of the actual team, and he even called him selfish.
Rick Ross Bought A $1M House Just So He Can 'Ride By It'
Ross may have some boss tips for the bitter NBA legend, especially after all the money his business endeavors have acquired him. On the first episode of Assets Over Liabilities, Rick Ross spoke briefly about purchasing a home in Atlanta just to drive by it whenever he’s in town, proving his wealth with a major flex.
f*ck Rozay. Pippen took a bad contract because he wanted to look after her mom. Nothing but respect for that. And he didn’t wanna risk going for a higher payday. it is what it is. Pippen had other priorities.
I got more respect for Pippen then Ross. I just can’t respect a man that lies about what he did for a living, then turn around and admit to it, then deny it again Oh on top of using another man’s name.
All true but don’t be so upset about how it played out you blame others
Pippen is an OG Ross need to stay in his rapper lane and don’t talk about all time greats. You just a tourist
Ay Rick Ross!! Fuck you! Fake ass gangsta keep your mouth shut
HE TALKING ABOUT MEEK MILL AT THE END!
Spot on
You got it! He’s basically telling Meek he’s F’d look at the contract
Pippen seems bitter about Jordan success pippen had shoes clothes and I don’t see why he’s bitter trying to sell his book I have to agree with Ross on this
Pipp is expressing is side of things and what he feels. Why would somebody like Ross have a issue with that. Scottie has earned the right to speak on things, he got 6 chips and he is arguably the greatest defensive player ever.
Scottie Pippen was around Mj for like 15 years I’m sure it’s a lot of things he knows that the public doesn’t
So what? The issue is about the documentary and basketball
Why Ross going out of his way to defend Jordan? Jordan don’t fuck with your kind Ross. On top of that, you doing videos like this for attention. Like we give a fuck what Ross think about Jordan and Pippen… Like you was in the room or something.
Rick Ross the rapper is a Fraud nobody cares what he thinks. Scottie just speaking his mind he a NBA legend, he has the right to speak on matters that concerned him.
True fact, The Bulls probably don’t even win that first title without Pippen switching onto Magic. Mike couldn’t do nothing with him, the old broken down version at that smh….shit like that is why Scottie’s tight…
Not LeBron, Wade & Bosth..JORDAN, PIPPEN, RODMAN…go back to pretending that yor movin keys fake azz SUGE.
That’s wild that no one else got a dime from Last Dance, excellent documentary. ESPN are snakes for that
