Rick Ross recently said that he is “still angry” about the George Zimmerman verdict. The Florida rapper also said that “something has to happen and it will,” in an interview with Global Grind.
“I’m still angry,” Ross said. “I’m upset and really, really enraged. I’ve just been trying to keep from putting too much negative energy out there. So, you know, we’re just doing our thing behind our closed doors. But most definitely, that’s a big problem and something has to happen and it will.”
The full interview can be seen below.
Ross’ comments follow the release of his song “I Wonder Why.” The selection addresses the “Stand Your Ground” law and features lyrics likely inspired by the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, who was shot and killed in February 2012 by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman. Zimmerman was found not guilty of second degree murder and manslaughter in July 2013.
“Now I’m being followed by some creepy-ass cracker,” Ross says on “I Wonder Why,” likely inspired by reports that Zimmerman, who is Hispanic, followed Martin on the night of the shooting. “Stand your ground, you gotta stand your ground,” Ross says.
T.I. recently made headlines when he also spoke about the Zimmerman verdict.
“I’d have been on trial,” T.I. said in a report published yesterday (July 30). “It would’ve been the trial of the father who killed the man who killed [his child]. That would have been my story. My hat goes off because they [the Martin family] are much more clear and level-headed thinkers than I. I definitely think something needs to be done, but it’s just another harsh reminder of the world that we live in.”

Rick Ross haters are by far the worst
They like to bring up the fact that hes fat (which means nothing), and the fact that he was a CO when he was NINETEEN while conveniently overlooking the fact that he blew up in 06 (when he was 30), so while they like to say he is the fakest rapper ever, and he never sold dope, they themselves have to no proof for that claim. Really? You were alongside him for 11 years, and you know for a FACT that he didnt slang? Doubt that, specially when real niggaz from Miami vouch for him. Theres so many real niggaz that have vouched for Ross over the years, outside the rap game
Not to mention, Ross is from Carol City, the meanest part of Miami. He ran with the Boobie Boys (the gang that ran Miamis drug scene) and Ross was KENNETH BOOBIE WILLIAMS’ FUCKING PROTEGE for godsakes
Also, Meek is BY FAR the realest nigga in rap (this is not up for a debate). Do you think hed not only work with Ross, but be Ross’ right hand man if he thought for one second Ross was a fake? Also, Chief Keef is a real nigga (how long is his rap sheet, specially for a 17 y/o), and hes worked with Ross.
Bawse!!
damn homie you almost had me convinced there until you brought up Meek and Keef.
HAD YOU CONVINCED? HE’S A FUCKING TROLL
Ross never ran with the boobie boys they were all locked up and shit by the time he was grown up. Stop lying. he is without a doubt the biggest fraud in all of rap
you cant prove that he ever did sell dope
he was living off his rich momma until he finally made it in rap
and the fact that he is fat actually does mean something. it means he gonna die soon. theres nothing wrong with him being fat but why he gotta take his shirt off and let his titties flop around in every fucking video. biggie and pun never did that shit
whats funny is there wasnt 1 comment until you typed out that whole storybook.
he didnt type it he copy and pasted it. its one of dentaldamboy’s alter egos, he been pasting that shit for a year or two
Not hating on ross, but complaining about this shit wont change a damn thing.
stop being a bitch state your opinion without dropping the ‘not hating’ bullshit. A RICK ROSS GROUPIE GETS MAD TELL EM TO FUCK OFF. SHIT NIGGAS SOFT ASF NOWADAYS
Translation:
My album flopped worse than my fat ass diving in the shallow end of my kiddie pool. I need attention. I’ve supervised the incarceration of 1000 Trayvon’s. Yes, I did them cavity searches like a BOSS
Rick ross you fake ass mofo.
You fucking police academy mofo.
– T.I. snitch to the feds
– Young Jeezy was never bmf
– 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
– Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
– Nas Escobar never sold drugs
– Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
– Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
– 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
– Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies in rap they are short as midgets and keep talking this g shit but never did g shit.
so short people cant be g’s?
2pac shot a cop.
He’s mad like somebody stole his identity and made a rap career from it.
Doesn’t this motherfucker rap about rape and murder, yet he’s angry?
OFFICER RICKY AFTER HIS ASS HES GONNA SERVE TIME I GUESS ONE OFFICER RICKY GETS ON HIM
This fat fuck raps about gun violence and killing people, and this makes him angry?
LOL what a fucking joke
I’m still angry this fraud ass liar gets a pass in hip-hop when everything he says is a lie.
Zimmerman was just like dis fat nigga. Wasnt smart enough to be a real police officer so they work in prisons locking niggas up or lead the neighborhood watch.
Cops aren’t even smart though. In some places they can get rejected for having too high of an IQ because police work would be “boring” for them.
THE VERDICT IS PURE RACISM. IF IT WAS REVERSED – BLACK DUDE SHOOTING AT WHITE TEENAGER, HE WOULD’VE BEEN LOCKED UP ALREADY.
RICK ROSS IS REALLY TURNING TO CONSCIOUS RAPPER AND A GOOD ROLE MODEL FOR YOUNG PEOPLE. YOU SEE LIKE LUPE FIASCO IS COMMENTING EVERYTHING? RICK ROSS IS DOING THE SAME STUFF, HE’S NOT AFRAID TO SPEAK OUT FOR HIS PEOPLE. AND FOR THE FIRST – HIS MUSIC IS ENTERTAINMENT. HE IS NOT TALKING ABOUT KILLING PEOPLE UNLESS YOU ARE INVOLVED IN ANY CRIME. MOST OF HIS SONGS IS ABOUT DEALING DRUGS AND THE WHOLE DRUG KINGPIN PERSONA. IN THAT WORLD, KILLING IS USUAL AND IT’S A WHOLE OTHER DIFFERENT THANG. TREYVON WAS NOT A CRIMINAL, HE AIN’T ABOUT THAT LIFE, SO THERE IS NO REASON TO SHOOT HIM. THAT HISPANIC BITCH HAD NO REASON TO SHOOT HIM.
“RICK ROSS IS REALLY TURNING TO CONSCIOUS RAPPER AND A GOOD ROLE MODEL FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.”
yes lets all steal another mans name and make a career pretending to be someone and something we’re not! selling dope is a great career for these young people lets all sell coke!
oj simpson says hi
But if the jury had been all black and found him guilty then that would have seemed perfectly fair to you? Wake up chump.
I think black people got to move on! one black get killed by white shit goes crazy for attention, how many white have been killed by blacks and no one says shit about it, so move on please
how many black people get killed by black people daily
where are all these superheros then?
Shut up crackker. Go back in your cave rapin your children.
Zimmerman is not white.
I’m hungry, I need to eat some Zimmerman.

a nigga that writes songs about date raping bitches is angry!!! oh shit who fucking cares what this fraud think. hes probably lying i bet he donated money to zimmerman
As I’ve previously stated, YOu Officer Ricky are law enforcement, so its people like YOU who commit these offences.
You are Zimmerman in disguise.
FUCK OFFICER RICKY!!
Watch out guys, we’re dealing with a badass over here!
Officer Ricky gon come for revenge! “YOU GON GET THIS WORK ZIMMERMAN! HE GON GET THIS WORK!”
These faggot ass rappers like fat boy and TI dont got no problems washing the minds of the youth though gwaf its like if Al Qaeda started doing charity work
“Wow this verdict has me so angry, i needa go rape some females to release this rage”
Ross you rap about killing people, selling drugs and aparently raping women why are you so angry when you have influenced other young black men doing the GZ did EVERY FUCKING DAY.
Oh you’re from Miami too. I’ve been to that shit hole ghetto city. Where the blacks are is fucking shit.
the evidence painted a completely different picture than the way the media originally portrayed the shit going down…there wasnt enough proof to find zimmerman guilty…ricky should have got his friends on the police force to plant crack on zimmerman
whats fucked up is everybody is pulling the race card like its white vs black when the fact is….zimmerman is hispanic not white. another thing is fuck the government bcuz everyday these are african american kids dying in the streets and kids dying around the globe. media is really doing its job. fuck the media….
dont care what colour, race, religion you are where all on this fuckin spinning rock together
His father is white. So Zimmerman is white..You loser
I’m still angry that Rick Ross was a cop & queery piglets still listen to his music.
For those who are saying Zimmerman isn’t white, lets not forget where Hispanics get there language from(Spain)which is in Europe. Also people of Hispanic decent also enslaved Africans i.e. the Portuguese. According to a jury of his peers GZ is more white and feminine than Hispanic. His jury consisted of 5 white women and 1 Hispanic. Also according to the U.S. Census Bureau and this link there are White Hispanics in the country. http://goo.gl/u63c4q ~Know the Ledge~
In this country white on white crime and black on black crime are equal. Also those referring to the crisis in Chicago. Check this out…http://goo.gl/XJpy4t
Hey Rick Ross why don’t you shut the hell up and stop using the race card. Sick and tired of idiots like you turning this into a race situation. What if a white kid had been shot and killed by George Zimmerman? Would the white community be calling for this man’s head? Oh by the way, have you seen the pictures taken right after the incident? Do you think George Zimmerman punched himself in both of his eyes and banged/scraped his head off of the sidewalk? Dipshit.
Its is a race situation idiot….
Other niggas gotta speak up and not let this shit ride. Only ones really talkin bout this shit is Jay Z and Ross. Too many niggas too afraid to speak the truth that niggas always a target when white people got guns. Too many rappers scared to alienate they white fans and the whities at the label to say shit. Hip hop used to be about speakin up about injusticed but now few niggas ever speak up. Much respect to Rozay for representin. Where yall favorite rappers 50 or Jeezy. Thats right them niggas at the label kissin ass like suckas. Mack 10 said it right.
Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you do know that jeezy made a trayvon tribute song like a day after the verdict right? not a line in a song 2 weeks later….
right jay-z and rick ross are the only niggas talking about trayvon. have you not been following the news. damn near every rapper from french montana to t.i. has spoke out about this shit ross is just trying to capitalize off this tragedy
hiphop let trayvon down. All talk but no action while GZ walks the streets smiling.
Black folks gotta just calm down GZ will get his day. He left Florida but now hes in Texas, but he cant hide from fate/ karma just ask OJ. We will all see GZ get his just do its coming. His child will get kidnapped, his old ass mother will drop with cancer, or maybe his fat wife will get sodomized. Karma always comes just be patient, hopefully it will be his child… that would be sweet!!!
Thats just sick….His wife and kid have nothing to do with it. Karma should only come for him.
How many innocent niggas do you think Officer William Roberts locked up and beat when he was a Correctional Officer. Same shit bud I bet you weren’t angry when you were beating innocent inmates asses and stealing their lunch
Why dont he just go arrest Mr Zimmerman than. You know he still got the cuffs in his closet next to the cases of twinkies and box of fake MMG chains to give to that crackhead Gunplay whenever his gets snatched
F*ck all tha sell out records sales. Tha real king of hip hop is tha one that takes care of this shyt.
thats the co rick ross talking ha
So angry he decided he was going to make money off it… this cat is trash man.
All these fake rappers are just trivialising the whole issue.
fuck you and your emotions tubby
WHERE IS JA ?? PLEASE CAN SOMEONE FIND JA RULE TO MAKE SENSE OF ALL THIS !!
quoteman quiet as fuck, probably ran out of baby oil, lol
bitch
Even when I’m gone your bitch ass still waits with baited breath until I return to skim through your garbage responses. I’d say get a life but since that’s not possible I’ll just say fuck you asshole and go about my marvelous day.
your hero ain’t feeling your newfound idol and you couldn’t spin your way out of this one, you ain’t fooling anybody with that marvelous day crap you were hiding
“scared to death, scared to look, he shook”
lol
His lying
When ever he lies he says But most definitely go and check.
“Are those rumors about you being a C.O. true”
“No man, most definitely not”
who cares about some african american drug dealer gets killed by amigo
i would advice Ricky to go talk to Ja Rule about getting his life back on rails.
zimmerman is white, his dad is a former judge. Look it up!
how many hispanics u know with the last name zimmerman.
“fernando zimmerman” really gtfoh!
LMAO
pop a molly and forget it happened Ross
oh move on 4 fuck sake
I’m still angry that every time I turn my TV on I have to see this fat piece of shit parading around with no shirt on. Have some deceny and cover up your man titties, nigga!
every time you turn on your tv? cmon son he aint that popular i didnt think they even play music videos anymore
Now I’m getting raped by this creepy fat rapper. Watch your drinks…. you gotta watch your drinks!
ANOTHER CHILD
fake gangster rapper …the video of him in the beginning was comedic ….Kevin Liles in the back most probably telling him to make more drug kingpin songs
THEIR ALL FAKE YOU RETARD
THEY ARE ENTERTAINERS GROW THE FUCK UP
they not fake like him though. they never locked up the niggas they claim to be. they never searched niggas butts for the drugs they claim to sell in they raps
Listen to this dumb fuck, saying they’re all fake. NO, THEY’RE NOT ALL FAKE, YOU FUCKING SUBURBAN MORON. What the fuck do you know??
As a former law enforcement official and criminal justice student i can respect why Ross has shown so much interest in this case.
can we stop talking about it now.
Can you kill yourself now??
can ur mom stop taking my dick down her throat balls deep witout gagging?
mom will stop gagging when ross stops eating chicken
ZIMMERMAN is a whiteboy dammit! …you are what your father is…as you proceeded from his sperm sack into your mothers body fully alive wigglin to the egg to be nourished…as a maggot is already a fly….a catepillar already a butterfly….Zimmerman’s mother was impregnated by george’s father…white went into hispanic not the other way around… he is not mixed..he is a creepy ass______ inside…like all the men he descended from…just like the african monkey obama banana… stand ya ground devils…
how is ross gonna call him creepy when he raps about date raping bitches? thats pretty fucking creepy if you ask me
Co-Sign we all know he is white but they try and pretend he is Hispanic….LOL
Ross says he’s still angry his buffalo wings weren’t delivered in time.
Nobody gives a fuck! And we’re still mad you’re alive and rapping!!!!
Ross is going to get Zimmerman a job as a C/O. What a guy. He knows George blew all his money on lawyers and needs steady employment.
maybe George can protect him from those Gangster Disciples and them niggas that shot at him on his birthday in his own city…. We all know George a real dude he aint afraid to pull the trigger unlike Ross!!!!
I sound like I have got a dick through my throat… I aint even kno it
