E! News : Rick Ross Reveals “ Black Market” Album Cover & Release Date
With the project set to be released on
December 4th, Rick Ross has shared
some details on his upcoming album
“Black Market”.
Rick Ross is back in a big way. The rapper
released Black Dollar — his best-received
project in some time — earlier this year, before
following it up with a flurry of impressive
singles and remixes.
Today, he sat down with Billboard, revealing the
cover art for his upcoming LP Black Market,
and talking to the publication about the new
approach he’s taken to his music following his
recent house arrest. He also got into the
criteria behind selecting his remix material, and
why he loves Adele. On the approach to Black
Market:
This is gonna be a person to person Rick Ross
LP, maybe the first one I recorded this way…
You know, a lot of times I love writing in the
capacity of groups of people, clubs, visions;
rarely is it intimate moments where you’re just
totally confined to yourself. And I did a lot of
writing and I had a lot of time to do that. The
music kind of came out that way.
You know, this album is, I feel like, most
definitely gonna be a Rozay on a higher,
intellectual level, just discussing a different
array of things. When you listen to records like
“Foreclosure,” that’s like me sitting in a room by
myself just rapping about things that’s running
across my mind and things that have been
bothering me. And during my incarceration, that
was the type of music I created. Just in that
short moment of time, I really just sat there…
I’m a muthafucka that flies six million miles a
year and just to halt one day, out of the blue,
for three weeks? It’s just, “Woah.” There’s a lot
of shit that I wrote and a lot of shit that I
thought about. I came back out and scrapped a
lot of music and I recorded some dope songs,
but my first day home I recorded six records.
So that’s why I was able to put out the Black
Dollar record and have been releasing a slew of
freestyles, just feeding the fans and everybody
that’s been asking for that Rozay music.
On selecting remix material:
It’s just whatever I like, or what I’m a fan of. I
might ask on Twitter every blue moon, I might
ask my fans what they want me to retouch. I
asked them that a day or two ago and they told
me [Future and Drake ‘s] “Jumpman” and I gave
it to them a few hours later.
On his Adele fandom:
I love the Adele single. I’m a huge fan of Adele,
her last album, the 21 project, I loved that
album. I’m just a fan… I’m reaching out through
you guys right now. Adele, I love you, baby. Get
at me — I got a wonderful idea for us. [Laughs]
Congratulations on your new music.
