Rick Ross has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing one billion streams on Spotify. This feat was made possible by his 2019 collaboration with Drake on the track “Money In The Grave.”
The two artists, although currently not on the best terms, created a track that resonated with fans. The song was part of a two-track release by Drake celebrating his hometown team, the Toronto Raptors, winning the NBA championship.
Despite the track’s success, Ross and Drake have been entangled in a public beef that surfaced earlier this year. The tension between them was brought up during Ross’ appearance on Yung Miami’s podcast, Caresha Please.
Ross explained the beef originated when Drake mentioned his name in a disrespectful context. Ross emphasized that it’s a “no-no” to involve his name unless it’s serious. He playfully mentioned his ease in responding while enjoying leisure time.
The beef escalated during the Drake and Kendrick Lamar rivalry, with Drake mentioning Ross in a diss. Ross fired back with his own track, reinforcing the ongoing spat.
When asked if reconciliation with Drake was possible, Ross left the door open but uncommitted, stating it would depend on his mood and not losing sleep over it.
Addressing rumors of a conspiracy against Drake, Ross dismissed them, saying there were no planned attacks. He insisted he was just having fun with the situation.
In the end, Ross’ collaboration with Drake continues to garner streams despite their rocky relationship.
