Rick Ross - Maybach Music Pt. 2 ft. Kanye West, Lil Wayne, & T-Pain
Artist: Rick Ross
Featuring: Kanye West , Lil Wayne , T-Pain
Producer: J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League
Album: Deeper Than Rap
Label: Maybach Music/Def Jam
On a track off his sophomore album, Trilla, Rick Ross teamed up with Hova to introduce listeners to a bangin’ new genre called Maybach Music. Judging by the four-star average that cut earned when it hit the Booth back in March of ‘08, the newly-released Pt. 2 couldn’t be an easier sell—essentially, it’s like part one, only moreso: more high-rolling lyricism, more epic, orchestral production by the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, and, of course, more big-name collaborators. After a sweeping hook by Autotune maestro T-Pain, Martin Louis Vuitton, Jr. steps up the plate to stunt about his cars, his sex appeal, and his notoriously tight clothing. A pumped-up second verse from the 305 Boss himself, followed by a metaphor-laced closing contribution by Lil Wayne complete this epic musical sequel (and potential single). Deeper Than Rap hits stores on the 21st, and fans should stay tuned for a possible exclusive interview with Ross next week.

The wait was well worth it for this one. Simply classic hip hop from the start- Ross actually killed this! Pain delivered perfectly on the chorus and you throw Yeezy and Wayne on the front and back of the track and it’s a wrap! THIS was supposed to be the Swagger Like Us that didn’t deliver in my opinion for the line up of artists it had. This will be Ross’s biggest record to date. CLASSIC music right here! Let’s go!!

T-Pain definitely impressed me..this has to be the best hook by him ever. Kanye sounds a little low on energy but I cant deny his lyrics on this. Lil' Wayne does his thing and Rick Ross flow is hot! The production on this is insane and original this is definitely a great anthem! Dope hook, lyrics are hot overall this song has the whole package! Just wondering if the Busta Rhymes "Number One" song will be put on djbooth or is it just because its not a single yet?

Yea, I definitely feel like Ross found his niche wit this type of track. His raspy vocals and southern flow just work best on these tracks. The hook from T-Pain is pretty epic, and Kanye was cool even though he didnt bring his greatest ish. Lil' Wayne is a perfect addition to the track, just flows perfectly wit the vibe. Its perfect how they add those breaks in the production for him. Again, not his best, but hot nonetheless. Yea, Keep tha Maybach Music comin!

So I got the new issue of XXL in the mail yesterday with Officer Ross on the cover. I'm not hesitant to say that I hate Ricky's bogus lifestyle and distasteful attitude, but despite it all he still continues to make dope music. Who would've known? Officer Ross can ride with the boy boys.

With an epic prod & line-up like this, one is bound to receive 5* + Teddy blessed the hook (NEVER disappoints) one of his best hooks ever... not gonna get better than Jay’s original verse, but Kanye is on firee rite now ... & Ross goin strong wit his laid-back street edge ... & Weezy did his thing, as DJ Blaze once said - "his lyrics are always better than an average MC" ...
but i kinda sense a lot of members/ppl will feel disappointed cos its not quite up to par with what each individual artist is capable of ... hey, but not me ... CLASSIC. |

damn...who does Ross think he is puttin out soo many hits at once like this????? dude is goin crazy.
however, if he didnt have these hip hop heavyweight artists(John Legend,Nas,T-Pain,Weezy,Kanye) on all these collabos he puttin out right now, then his music wound sound average and nothin big. |

i can see now, i will be in the minority.
this is, in my opinion... 3 steps down from the original. that was classic. this is just average COMPARED to that one. it just seems like a major downgrade. |

I'm expecting big things from Deeper Than Rap in the next few weeks but, in all honesty, Ross is possibly the least important factor in this (and pretty much any) of his songs. Production and guest features are the pinnacle of every track release off any of his tracks; overshadowing Ross in the vast majority of his music. As someone who lives in the 305 and is constantly exposed to Ross' music, I find his lyrics rather mediocre and his subject matter to be very single-minded so, while DTR may end up being a great album, I can't see myself ever becoming a Ross fan. Anyways, the track is a classic, no doubt, but I'm pretty sure the substitution of Ross for any other artist would've gotten the same output.

CLASSIC! CLASSIC! CLASSIC! CLASSIC! CLASSIC!
The way the music starts... and ends! All the beautiful brass, bassline, strings, percussion, and anything that produces any chord. Justice league will be remembered in hip hop history for this production. It’s unbelievably good. Listen with headphones… amazing! And that’s how you make sure your enemy (50) won’t have anything hotter than you for the next 4 years… XD I love how each rapper brings a different style, they all flow so properly and deliver smart lyrics! |

Not going to lie, this could be the best track from Ross I have ever heard. The line-up is great, and they actually deliver for once. All verses are great, and so is the production. The only problem is that this is the 5th single off his album. I would have loved to hear this when the album actually came out instead of two weeks earlier but I guess that's how the music industry is these days. Good job Ross, sounds like it's going to be a great album so far.

i agree with you peezee this dude is the milli vanilli of the rap game and it looks like the resident dj's and the dj booth crew all got a little payoff to rate this song highly because to be honest it's not that hot at all and when the album flops that will be the indicator of that

@queencali: If only you "got a little payoff" to give useful feedback on the MUSIC (not gossip, soap opera and beef bs)... -.- the true sign of a hater is the lack of any arguments in his statements ("it's not that hot at all" is not one).
Guess what you find in "the resident dj's and the dj booth crew" ones? @Z: Only because you asked nicely... :p |

To "queencali" (and anyone else who thinks that any member of the site or our crew "got a little payoff to rate this song."), the DJBooth is all about one thing: music. If you want beef, go to WSHH. If you want gossip, check out a few blogs. Nobody here cares what Ross did on the side or what 50 Cent said about him in a beef record. This particular song is VERY STRONG and has the supporting cast and production muscle to match.
Everyone is entitled to rate this record as they please (1's and 5's have been given), but do not expect that you can make invalid and hurtful accusations.

^I disagree. Swagger Like Us is very mediocre compared to this.
Production here is AMAZING! It ALONE pulls in the stars. Then you get some dope verses. Great hook from the ringleader, Kanye is a given, I just love Rick Ross on here (favourite part, actually), and Lil Wayne difficults his typical sorta verse, but that's not exactly a bad thing so hey. I've been playing QuESt's version for such a long time, waiting for the official CDQ. |

Before someone says it, Swagger Like Us does beat this lyrically, but it's not like this track has horrible enough lyrics to make it a trash song, since it doesn't.

This song is an absolute BANGER CLASSIC!!!! The hook is insane, the production by Justice League is perfect. Kanye yes. Rick Ross yes. And Weezy, YES!!! It's pretty much apples and oranges comparing it to the original....If the music is doing the talking (which I think is really what SHOULD be...) then Rick is winning the current war he's fighting....no names mentioned. ...They all left the auto-tune off of this banger and kudos indeed....looking forward to Deeper Than Rap...CLASSIC 2009 BANGER STATUS!!!

T-Pain destroys the chorus. Kanye's flow is good. Lil-Wayne is a good finisher. Rick Ross has some unique sounds in this as well. Great song great beat. But I did make my own edit of the version and cut the first 17 seconds out at the start to put in my car |

The fact that this is 'Part 2' means I have to compare it to part 1. Jigga made that one a CLASSIC, and no one stands out, but its fair to say Ross gets outshined again, by the features. Props to Justics League on beat tho.

Its a solid track, though I dunno how often ill play it. All these tracks with the 'biggest names in the game' always seem to flunk, especially swagger like us, which was the most overrated track of 08 here at DJ Booth.
I still think Deeper Then Rap is going to strugle. He isnt Nas or Jay-Z, so he cant get away with having no hit single, which creates the larger album sales |

Damn. Chorus is CRACK. The chorus alone makes the song a banger. That Justice League hook that rises and T-Pain's autotune is finally good here.
But I dunno, I don't really like the Eezzy's (Wayne and Kanye) especially Wayne. He can get away with lyrics that sound they're written by a 4 year old. REMIX THIS CRACK please. |

I don't think this track is as good as many of you thought while rating. The production is wonderful in my opinion, but the only one who had a really good verse was Kanye. I didn't like the hook. I'd put it in rotation, but this is far from being a classic to me
