Rick Ross RICH FOREVER Full Mixtape Download

Rick Ross' new mixtape, perhaps his best full-length album, shows the Teflon Don coming out of his temperature and into a world where it seems like something is at stake.

With Rick Ross and star producer du jour Lex Luger both at the top of the rap game, it's easy to forget how much of the former's career he now owes to the latter. Ross was a successful artist even before he teamed up with Luger, but his stunning transition from a reluctantly accepted popular rapper to one of the genre's most respected artists can be directly attributed to Luger's beat for "B.M.F. (Blowin' Money Fast)," the song that will live on as the indelible single of Ross' career. The beat was so titanic that Ross - who had gone to great lengths to preserve the image he had built of himself as an opulent drug lord - screamed a chorus where he imagined himself to be the real drug lords Big Meech and Larry Hoover. In one fell swoop, Ross destroyed his carefully assembled existence while building the one that paved the way for his skyrocketing career, which culminated in Rich Forever, the new mixtape that now represents his artistic peak.
