Rick Ross, the 'King of Rap,' Teams Up with Gucci to Transform a $25 Million Jet into the Pinnacle of Luxury Aviation🙏🛬|

For Rick "Rozay" Ross, it was always much more than just rap music. With his drive and determination, the multi-platinum, nine-time Grammy Award nominee always believed he would be flying high, soaring above the rest. And by moving from "Hustlin'" to meeting President Barack Obama at the White House, costarring with Eddie Murphy in Coming 2 America, and securing his spot on the New York Times bestseller list twice, he has demonstrated that. In addition, he has five #1 Billboard Top 200 debuts, hundreds of multi-platinum certifications, and billions of streams.

In addition to his career as a musician, the 49-year-old luxury connoisseur is a strategic entrepreneur who has created one of the most powerful empires globally, which includes a tens of millions of dollars' worth of real estate, multiple restaurants, personal product launches, and partnerships.  Wingstop, Checkers, Rap Snacks, High Tolerance, Slippery Soap LLC, Belaire Rosé + Sovereign Brands, the Rick Ross Car & Bike Show, the Rick Ross Boss Up Conference, and, of course, Maybach Music Group—the label he founded that helped launch superstars like Meek Mill and Wale—are among his business interests.

Ross sat down to discuss a lifelong ambition that has finally come true: owning his own private plane, while he continues to grow his kingdom.  Rick has always loved cars, and he developed an early admiration for flawless craftsmanship.  He fell in love with the art of cars while working at a neighborhood car wash in Miami when he was just 13 years old.  Today, his flying adventure is driven by the same scrupulous passion.  His dedication to live life at the greatest altitude, fusing business and pleasure with carefree style, is demonstrated by his personal plane, a stunning Gulfstream G550 with the words "Rich Forever" written on the side.

For the first cover of our newest book, Haute Jets, which reimagines what it means to be a member of the jet set, we decided to feature his passion for the high life.  As he celebrates the luxury of private aviation and encourages a new generation to dream greater, fly higher, and work harder, Ross genuinely embraces the spirit of the sky.  Following the success of his most recent album, Too Good To Be True, and his well-received Rick Ross Car & Bike Show at the Promise Land in Fayetteville, Georgia, he is still developing, putting all he has worked so hard to create his most honest, genuine, and lavish work to date.
