Rick Ross has outed himself as a Swiftie after gushing over Taylor Swift’s new album The Tortured Poets Department.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday (April 18), Rozay revealed his unexpected fandom of Swift and her latest project by writing: “Fresh out the slammer and Florida!!! Blasting on the Yacht at Midnight. Taylor writes like a Boss and her song titles are Gangsta.”

Needless to say, the MMG mogul’s tweet caught many fans by surprise, with one writing: “Ross being a Swift fan was not on my card [crying face emoji].”
Another joked: “The visual of this in my head is incredible.”

Ross’ praise for Taylor Swift comes shortly after Drake mentioned the pop star on his diss track “Push Ups (Drop & Give Me 50),” which took aim at Rozay, Future and most notably Kendrick Lamar.
On the track, he mocked K. Dot for working with Swift, rapping: “Maroon 5 need a verse, you better make it witty/ Then we need a verse for the Swifties.”
The pair collaborated on 2015’s “Bad Blood (Remix),” which reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Rick Ross previously hinted at being a Taylor Swift fan earlier this year when he denied conspiracy theories that the NFL rigged the Super Bowl in favor of the Kansas City Chiefs because star tight end Travis Kelce was dating the singer.
Appearing on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, he said: “That the homie girl, she at the game. They can’t help if she sold a hundred million records. She gotta date somebody.”

He added: “She should perform at the Super Bowl too. That’s my girl.”
Drake, who was once rumored to be dating Swift, appeared to shade the pop star a couple of years ago when celebrating his success on the Billboard Hot 100.
Drizzy and 21 Savage’s collaborative LP Her Loss placed an impressive eight songs in the top 10 on the chart following its release in November 2022, but the duo were beaten to the top spot by Swift’s “Anti-Hero.”
In a screenshot of the chart, the 6 God curiously covered up Swift’s name with a series of cryptic emojis, including a face massage, popcorn, an eight ball, a thought balloon, a yogi in the Lotus position and a nervous laugh.

He later gave the pop star her props on “Red Button,” however, rapping: “Taylor Swift the only n-gga that I ever rated/ Only one could make me drop the album just a little later/ Rest of y’all, I treat you like you never made it.”
