Sitting comfortably on top of the rap game, there are many who are interested in Rick Ross’ story. In his earlier songs, Rick Ross spoke of how poor he grew up and what he did to make things better for himself. Successfully selling his drug lord persona, rumors came out about the larger-than-life rapper holding a career as a correctional officer.

However, before everything, Rick Ross is about his money and he admitted to working the job to put food on his table. But, given the persona he portrays, it did turn some off from him.

From the beginning, Rick Ross had a vision of total domination of the rap game. During his commercial shoot with Reebok, Ross delved into his past and how he got where he is today.
