Throughout the interview with the entrepreneur and rap game boss, highlights include:
- Getting Drake, Lil Wayne, Pusha T and Kayne on a record with his choice of production
- How Ross’ first time seeing Kanye in a MAGA hat inspired him to write “Vegas Residency”
- Featuring young rappers on his project & how impressed Ross is with A Boogie’s flow and ability to touch different vibes
- The potential for Rich Forever to live on digital streaming platforms: “Me and Hov may have to sit down and have that conversation”
- His thoughts on “Luxury Rap”
The process of opening up to write his book & anecdotes he left out:
- “I haven’t read the book… My homie Neil who wrote the book…the first 6/7 months he was around me he might’ve got two pages from Rozay..The shit he was asking, I wasn’t comfortable. It took time.”
- “It’s things I would never repeat til the day I die. It’s not the things I say that make me a boss. It’s things I don’t say that make me a boss.”
Dealing with blogs and living in a clout obsessed society:
- “Deal with everything face forward. If the blogs wanna have a negative opinion, let’s create some content they appreciate and make sure the writers understand our value”
- “Being the underdog is what I wanna be. I want that extra challenge…I gotta nice glass spot for that Grammy whenever it comes. If my career was based on my record sales from my first and second albums, I wouldn’t be here right now. The streets determine my impact, not record sales.”
