Rick Ross previewed a song inspired by The Notorious B.I.G.’s “You’re Nobody (Until Somebody Kills You).”
The track reportedly features a beat similar to the one The Notorious B.I.G. used for “You’re Nobody (Until Somebody Kills You),” as per vibe.com.
The site reports that Ross’ vocals on the selection are “eerily” similar to The Notorious B.I.G.’s.
The song is reportedly meant to address Ross’ January shooting incident.
Ross reportedly lost control of his Rolls Royce after he was attacked by gunfire January 28. Sources, including TMZ.com, reported that the Maybach Music Group boss was attacked on Fort Lauderdale, Florida’s Los Olas Boulevard, near 15th Avenue. Early reports indicated that more than a dozen rounds were fired by the assailant.
In February, Ross spoke about the shooting.
“[There are] no suspects and we not here to speculate on any suspects,” he said in an interview with MTV. “I’m just staying positive, I’m moving forward and I’m just staying on top of my game.”
“You’re Nobody (Until Somebody Kills You)” was released on 1997’s Life After Death, the second album from The Notorious B.I.G.
The Notorious B.I.G. was shot and killed in Los Angeles, California on March 9, 1997. He was shot multiple times, also while sitting in the passenger seat of a Chevrolet Suburban. He was 24.
During the album preview, Ross also previewed “Francis Ford Coppola,” “Ultimate Price” and “No Games,” according to vibe.com.
Mastermind’s upcoming “The Devil Is A Lie” single was not previewed. It is set to be released within the next month as Ross readies the unveiling of his album, set to be in stores December 17.

Francis Ford Coppola loves the song.
fuck this nigga b
these songs will have magnificent music but the lyrical content will be the same redundant, lackluster, soul-less rhetoric, and therefore the end result will not match the hype.
I prefer introspective and thought provoking music while I’m drunk and clubbing, MF Doom is my fav
LOL BruthaDee is sooo fuckin butthurt!
i wish somebody would kill him like B.I.G.
I don’t wish death on any human being but I might pretend to online for attention purposes.
Every rapper gets shot at damn near, it’s just shitty when the bodyguards get killed.
daaam…I don’t like Rozay but that’s harsh. No one one wins when artist gets killed over phuxxery…come on son.
yeah we dont want ross to die, then he would probably be everywhere and people would start talking about him like he was one of the greats when he isnt even close. we need ross to fall into bad health or fade into obscurity
People who enjoy Ross music will enjoy the album people who don’t enjoy Ross music will dislike the album.
Hey everybody look look!! It’s the Jeezy Stan trying to make Ross fans look ambivalent!!!!
jeezy doesnt have any stans BruthaDee, you should know that
You white skinned nerds better play nice and praise the Godfather William or big bad @BruthaDee will come in here and talk about your sunburned skin, your pimples and your hairy back while calling your entire race pedophiles!
I dont care what any stranger says to me online, I don’t get trolled or catfished, you just need to grow up. I want to here that Francis Ford Coppollo song I bet its epic.
Looks like his words had an effect on you, LOL.
I cant believe my idol Ross made a song about a man that isn’t black!
Your idols boss is a white guy fucktard.
when the troll gets trolled LOL
Dental boy is a troll, this guy is Super Stan. I thought Ross favorite rapper would be Biggie but he said in a magazine that it was Scarface. Mastermind might be flames.
F you is you dont agree with me. But Rick Ross is the hottest MC right now.
F you is you dont agree with me. But Rick Ross is the fattest MC of all time
Checkout thegrandreport, they got some good hip hop and viral videos on there
We don’t believes you, you need more people.
More songs that belittle those around him, this is what elitism has driven rap into becoming. A tool to marginalize the have-nots as rappers say what they invented, how they will protect it and how your less than for not being in the same class. His goal is to have large sums of money to marginalize his fans with diamonds they dont have, clothes they cant afford or cars they have not seen.
Weak people think like you and many failures in life who are unsuccessful also share your views.
Meek Mill used to be a have-not and was dirt poor living in a crime ridden neighborhood eating moldy bread with dirty clothes on and nappy braids. He listened ro JayZs fancy rhymes about the finer things in life and instead of being weak and feeling marginalized he felt inspired to have the same things JayZ had so he honed his craft and utilized his talent and now he has many of the toys that JayZ has.
Our goal is to have large sums of money to help our families and communities and build generational wealth for our children’s children.
what a crock of shit
why would anyone eat bread with mold on it? I knew Meek was kind of dumb but got damn!!!! My dog wouldnt even eat that shit.
Yo im hearing rumors from my boys in the 305 that Francis Ford Coppola was the one who wrote the whole script to Rick Ross whole career and second life and hes about to pay homage to him on that track!
Your skin peels in the sun and turns red like a human snake.
Why does mother nature hate you? Are you a leprous albino?
@BruthaDee
you leave fingerprints on charcoal
why does the check oil light flash when you leave your car?
^^^^^ This sick lonely kid spends more time trying to get other men’s attention than he does responding to the articles, dude must be nerdy loner.
The lonely one has obvious mental problems which is most likely why she uses anonymous blogging as a means of communicating and interaction, she’s the type of girl with no one to talk to and nothing productive to do so she just types strangers names hoping they will respond.
Dude is pretending he has groupies on here but we all know he’s talking to himself to act like he’s somebody. He wants ro be e-famous like dentaldam and quoteman but his posts are lame.

WHAT AN INSIGHTFUL ARTICLE ABOUT THE SONG!!!
why cant william just be himself smh
being himself got him a shitty job cuffing and searching his own people at prison for 20k a year. being someone else made him millions.. what would you do?
You can be yourself with your family and friends but in the entertainment industry we want
Slim Shady not Marshall Mathers but a broke boy wouldn’t understand
BruthaDee hates eminem so bad! Imagine if Ross would have called one of his albums The William Roberts LP! I know Eminem wasnt ashamed of being Marshall or Shady.

This is definitely going to convince people Ross is a highly original artist. This album’d better be a step up from ‘God forgives’, which was a painful listen.
convince?!?!?! I think not…
wanna be biggie this nigga can’t even free style
LMAO No this nikka did not just go there! Does he honestly believe some one tried to kill him, when he knows this was a set up lol Fucking Ross! What a fucking joke!
he gonna make a whole album of songs about niccas trying to kill him when not one bullet fragment touches his car LOLOL, he did more damage to himself and his girl by getting shook and driving into the wall
That little incident has you talking about him and adding to the response count of this article.
just like my comment got responding, bitch
A Buddy and I were talking the other day about how funny of a name Maybach Music is gonna be in 10 years when all those cars have depreciated like crazy and nearly worthless.
You and your stupid buddy are too stupid to know that once a carline is discontinued the value goes up instead of down, so Maybachs won’t depreciate stupid, they will be considered classic and vintage stupid.

How you make a Biggie insprired song and decide to put fucking French Montana on the hook? LOL
now this sucka thinks he’s biggie?!?!?!?!?!?! aww man…I’m not feeling that all. Ross is definately on the decline…
I would respect these niew niccas a lot more if they kept biggie and pac’s names out their mouth! That I Feel Like Biggie I Feel Like Pac song was bad enough and now this shit with French Montana? LOL Ross is hip-hops court jester, making us all laugh
Fat boy thinks he’s Biggie now thats jokes. Add B.I.G. to the long list of people Ross has felt like or pretended to be in his short music career
2Pac’s crack, 2Pac’s crack
Theres all these C.O. niccas searching 2Pac’s crack
Rubber gloves on me, you can picture that colon
With my brand new cuffs, know them wrists gon be swollen
Guarding on Death Row, Hookers having my baby
But I’m eating my chicken I need a new bowl of gravy
They searching 2pac’s crack, 2pac’s crack
There’s all these C.O. rappers spreading 2pac’s crack
The difference is B.I.G. got murked by off duty police, Ross is the police!!
The lil Haitian kids were busting off shots into the air and Ross got so scared he drunkenly crashed into a wall and made up some shooter story to up his street cred and give him something to rap about on the next album.. But we don’t believe you!!!
lol…real talk!! nuff respect my G
Is that what the white witnesses said or is that just your version?
word on the street homeboi
Were you there tiny? Of course not, so save the theories for CNN.
BIG was cool cause he didnt have to make 20 songs about being Kool G Rap or Rakim
BIG could make a song about sticking a broom up a mans ass and you would call it a classic
No. He just pretended he was a character from a movie, and name dropped it like crazy.
i see this fat slob still using other niccas names to get attention and hype
Stop giving him your attention and he will cease to exist in your world.
if you stop giving me attention BruthaDee I would stop existing in your world

This may be some ingenious marketing: You use a similiar beat to a classic song and let the outraged weirdos go bonkers. LOL, I ain’t heard the song yet but the weirdos are hyping it with hate already so whatever works!
haters dont buy albums
I just want Godfather 50 and G-Unit to come back.
BruthaDee has returned
to make the crakkas pay for slandering Godfather Ricky
Your skin peels in the sun and turns red like a human snake.
Why does mother nature hate you? Are you a leprous albino? How many pimples are on your face right now?
Gangster rap of the ’90s changed the game forever, and the influence of Tupac and Biggie will continue for decades to come. But that’s all it should be — influence. Instead, 20 years after they were shot, most of the rappers on commercial radio are still jacking their lines and stealing their swag. Who taught you to rap about getting money and fucking bitches? What happened to switchin’ up the flow and honest word play? Jay Z is pretty fucking bad about this, but at least Jay actually knew Biggie. Most of you are just bad fifth-generation Xerox copies. You’re so far from the original image, nothin’ but blunt ink splotches taking up space on paper. Check yourself.
2pac had swag? lol He consistently contradicted himself, and was not the thug he pretended to be. Why even in death does he get a pass, but others get slammed? Every one of your favorite rappers has pretended on the mic. If it’s just entertainment, cool. Pretend away, but if you’re going to get technical, then call Pac a fraud cause that’s what he was.
