Freeway Rick Ross Criticizes Rapper Over Name, Weight

The long-standing feud between rapper Rick Ross and former drug kingpin Freeway Rick Ross reignited recently during a boxing match where Freeway criticized the rapper’s nickname, calling it 'feminine,' and pointedly remarked about their differing physiques. Rick Ross responded on social media by mockingly labeling Freeway as a 'gangsta informant' and telling him to 'go put on a suit.' This dispute, rooted in Freeway's assertion that the rapper appropriated his name for fame, has spanned over a decade and includes a failed lawsuit against the rapper for trademark infringement. Social media users have largely sided with Freeway, emphasizing Rick Ross's perceived inauthenticity, especially given his past as a correctional officer. The controversy highlights broader discussions about identity and authenticity in the hip-hop industry, with Freeway insisting that the rapper has profited from his infamous legacy without properly crediting him.
