Rick Ross - Yella Diamonds
Artist: Rick Ross
Producer: Beat Billionaire
Album: Rich Forever Mixtape
Label: Maybach Music/Def Jam
Whether you’re talking precious stones or crack rocks, Rick Ross won’t settle for anything less than the best. The Maybach Music mogul’s high standards are readily apparent on newly-released single/mixtape standout Yella Diamonds, a street-ready selection which finds him drawing a connection between his jewelry game and his dope game. Over Beat Billionaire‘s production, a bombastic blend of orchestral synths and skittering trap percussion, Ricky Rozay (mostly) sets aside the luxury rap in favor of sheer intimidation. Despite busting out the much-maligned “end-every-line-with-the-word-‘n*gga’” flow, he manages to keep things interesting on the lyrical tip, mixing references to big names in organized crime (“I’m whippin’ cake up like it’s Jacob, n*gga”) with straight-up aggression (“You know they talkin’ home invasion, nigga / Seein’ your daughter scream can be very persuasive, nigga.”). Has this joint whet your appetite for more dope-slinging, paper-stacking bangers? Good—because that’s exactly what you’ll find on Rick Ross’ Rich Forever tape, available via LiveMixtapes as of early January.

Ross sounds good when he is living it up or when he is mad as f**k. Is there any in-between? I don't think so.

The Rich Forever Mixtape is INCREDIBLE! It's the hottest collection of tracks out on the market right now. Definitely worth a download for everyone. Rick Ross flow remains consistent and he delivers on this one. The beat goes hard too.

Man, weird to say this but he sounds hella RAW, more grittier on the mic, only problem is it's that SAME beat & SAME flow, if it works though, why change?

I don't know why but for the last few weeks/months I've been on Ross' dick. I can't get enough, and I am not ashamed.

why would I spend money on this song when I have 10 songs that sound JUST like this in my music library?!
In economic terms, when you pump out the same song and try to bamboozle the public into buying it again and again, there is going to be "diminishing returns".. basically meaning, niggaz is gonna get tired of the same shit. |

People either love him or hate him kind of like 50 cent these days. If you hate him why bother rating his stuff with 1 star. This obviously isn't ground breaking stuff here but it isn't one star either.
It's a decent track but I've heard much better from Ross |
