Ross to drive his Bentley into a building the night of
his 37th birthday, Miami legend Uncle Luke took to
his weekly Miami New Times column, "Luke's
Gospel," to give Ross some friendly advice.
In the open letter entitled "Rick Ross: Calm Down
Before You End Up Like Biggie," Luke urged the rap
star to settle his beefs with the Gangster Disciples
and others peacefully. He explained to the MMG boss
that if violence continues to follow him, his stock as
an artist will quickly drop. "No club or arena is going
to risk people getting shot and you can forget about
doing any tours or CD signings," warned Luke. Ross
has been pretty quiet since the shooting and has
since hired round-the-clock security.
Given that Uncle Luke has survived nearly three
decades in the rap game, the Bawse just might want
to listen up.
Check out an excerpt from the letter
below.
Dear Rick Ross:
I'm going to give you some advice. You need to
seriously address the threats and attempts on your
life. You have worked hard to become a big name in
hip hop. You've paid your dues and you've grown
lyrically since the release of your debut album, Port
of Miami, in 2006.
But all this gangster bullshit is jeopardizing your
career.
Hip hop has a rich history of college guys who never
committed a crime rapping about moving kilos of
cocaine and taking out snitches. Every gangster
rapper takes on the role of a real hood legend to build
up street cred. But I don't want you to fall into the
trap of believing you are really a gangster.
Trust me, you don't want to go out like Biggie
Smalls or Tupac. It's time you squash your beefs.
I'll drop d complete nd un-edited letter soon ..
