Rick Ross has enjoyed tremendous success as a musician and businessman, and his leadership skills have now been recognized by the state that bred him.
On Monday (March 25), the West Palm Beach Fraternal Order of Firefighters hosted their inaugural Leadership Summit at the Ben Hotel, and Rozay was among the many guest speakers present at the event.

“Today, I became an official ambassador for the West Palm Beach Fire Department,” he said while wearing a custom-made firefighter helmet with his name stamped on it. “I had a[n] opportunity of speaking on what it means to be a leader at the leadership conference.”

In other news, the 48-year-old’s recent verse on Future and Metro Boomin‘s “Everyday Hustle” inspired some vicious clapback from his ex Tia Kemp, including a claim about one of his children resembling Drake.
The song in question, which was released as part of We Don’t Trust You, features the Bawse rapping: “Baby mama still the biggest opp/ Team of shooters just to keep it locked.”

Kemp, who shares a son with the Miami native, was convinced the line was about her even though it doesn’t mention her by name. A few days after the track’s release, she responded to it during an Instagram Live session and went off on a tangent, suggesting alternate topics for the rapper to talk about in his songs.
“You oughta rap about your muthafuckin children you around here hiding,” she said. “I want to see my stepson that look like Drake.”
Kemp then made it clear that she’s tired of being mentioned in Ross’ songs, singling out his 2008 cut “Single Again (Remix)” with Trina, Plies and Lil Wayne, which features him rapping: “Left my baby mama ’cause she didn’t get shit.”
“You been doing that shit since our baby was five,” she said. “For twenty fucking years you played games […] Rap at me on another song, I’m coming to that fucking gate with them double R’s on.”
