Rick Ross was threatened by alleged gang members in a video uploaded to YouTube.
According to Atlanta’s 11 Alive News, rapper Rick Ross was named in a federal indictment they recently obtained. The indictment states that the Miami-based musician was in fact threatened by four alleged members of the Gangster Disciples, on video.
In the video, which was uploaded to YouTube, they threatened Ross with physical harm, and added that the rapper can no longer perform in states where the gang has ties until he pays up and “turns those checks in.”
Earlier reports of the video threat stated that the Gangster Disciples were upset with Ross’ use of a six-point star, which serves as the gang’s symbol, on the cover of his The Black Bar Mitzvah mixtape.
Around the time of the threat, Ross canceled his Maybach Music Group Tour. A shooting at the rapper’s Chicago studio also took place. It is unclear if either of the two events are linked to the gang’s threats.
A statement released following the cancellation of Ross’ tour in 2012 cited an “apparent lack of organization and communication on the part of the tour promoter” as the reason why the tour was abruptly ended.
Several of the gang members named in the indictment, which mentions Rick Ross, faced a Georgia judge yesterday (May 9). Among those who appeared in court was a Dekalb County Police Officer who allegedly served as hitman for the Disciples.

Still no idea why this guy was accepted in the industry and works with some of the biggest names. He’s a fraud, never came from that life or even area. Even Wayne at least grew up in the hood in N.O and saw some shit and was around it. Even drake at least doesn’t rap about being a mob boss who slams bricks. Take this L ricky
Dumb fuck Ross is from the hood carol city in miami and he had dope in the miami streets
Dumb fuck Ross is from the hood carol city in miami and he had dope in the miami streets
Nah U actually wrong doe, he grew up in the hood in carol city . Ross was very close and is to this day with Kenneth Williams and the boobie boys. Black is a big time, real G. Look it up if u want. Like Ross or not, these are facts. And when Ross was a Co, he was making shit happen in prison for the niggas he rolled with.
Bruh Ross grew up in Miami when the cartel was at war in the 80s. He’s been associated wit the boobie brothers and has trap houses in dade county. do your research.
