Rick Ross

William Leonard Roberts II (born January 28, 1976), better known by his stage name Rick Ross is an American rapper. His stage name is derived from the name of drug trafficker "Freeway" Ricky Ross, to whom he has no connection. Rick Ross has also founded his own record label Maybach Music Group, on which he will be releasing his next album Deeper Than Rap.
Rick Ross was born in Coahoma County, Mississippi.[1] and raised in Carol City, Florida, of Miami.[2] After graduating from Carol City Senior High School, he later attended the historically black college Albany State University in Albany, Georgia.[3]. He joined Suave House Records, former label for rap duo 8Ball & MJG. He eventually signed a deal with Slip-n-Slide Records, which has been under the Def Jam umbrella since 2006. While signed to Slip-n-Slide, Ross toured with fellow rapper Trick Daddy and made guest performances on other Slip-n-Slide rap albums.
