Summary
Rick Ross explains how “Hustlin” sparked a massive 2006 bidding war, why he demanded seven figures from every label meeting, and how owning the record with Slip-N-Slide still pays him 20 years later. He also breaks down his first big checks, nonstop show grind, and flipping rap money into real estate.
