When Rick Ross first introduced himself in 2005, his monumental single “Hustlin’” took center stage. This time around, the Miami native’s larger-than-life persona has overshadowed singles from his sophomore album Trilla, despite extra star-power assists from R. Kelly (”Speedin’”) and T-Pain (”The Boss”). From his lyrics (”I see colors when I get high - life looks like a box of Fruit Loops”) to his penchant for flaunting his pudgy physique in videos à la The Notorious B.I.G., the laidback ‘hood legend has clearly become the brightest star of the 305’s hip-hop galaxy: Trilla debuted as Billboard’s number one album. Rhapsody had a chance to catch up with the Boss while he was running around Atlanta. He spoke on having a number one album, working with Jay-Z, and traveling the world.
