Now a seven-year veteran and closing in on six solo albums out and three compilations, Rick Ross is a boss. Over the past three years, Rick Ross has consistently come up to three in terms of popularity. A lot of this had to do with the deals he put in place for Maybach Music.
A power move that did not realize itself until much later was the 2010 deal Pusha T signed to join G.O.O.D. Music. Kanye West, at the time, did not put much focus on his record label, but that soon changed. Soon after this deal, Kanye West made his situation with Def Jam official.
Rick Ross has held Def Jam down throughout the entirety of his career. He has had the chance to work closely with both Pusha T and Kanye West. In his interview with popular personality, Karen Civil, Rick Ross claimed he was the one who put the deal in motion.
