Rick Ross Protests Soul Train Awards Loss To Eminem

[lil_bayly]

UPDATE: Rick Ross talks about walking out at the Soul Train Awards. Was he upset about losing?

Lost in the hilarity of Wolf Blitzer wanting someone to “teach him how to Dougie” and accepting Eminem’s award for Best Hip Hop song, was Rick Ross’ skipped performance for what he apparently perceived as a snub. Ross’ collaboration with Styles P, “B.M.F.” was also in the running for the Best Hip Hop Song award. While Em won for “Love the Way You Lie,” Ross reportedly exited the building and skipped his scheduled performance of “Aston Martin Music.”

Ross’ “Aston Martin Music” collaborator, Chrisette Michele, took to her blog, to address the issue, saying that she was primed for the performance only to be told it was canceled following Ross’ untimely exit.

“Who stands off at an award show because they don’t win?” she wrote. “An award is winning at being as ‘stuck in a category’ as possible. Congratulations to all the trophy holders who won at being the most like every one else…I could have sworn hip hop was on the come up. But apparently rapping is about venting, bashing, chauvinistic pigging, and EGO. Not cool. Don’t LET me start rapping. (album in stores november 30th).”

The singer backed off the comments a bit during a later interview, but still expressed disappointment at Ross, while not naming him directly.

“One of my dear friends pulled a little fit and left the awards before he was able to perform,” Michele said, during an interview with Glenn Woods of Atlanta’s Hot 107.9. “That made it so I couldn’t perform with him, and it made me think twice about what it means to receive an award. At the end of the day, just because you don’t win an award doesn’t make you less of an amazing artist. So I was a little disappointed at some people’s behavior at the award show.”




Interestingly enough, Ross contemplated dissing Eminem in 2009 during the height of his feud with 50 Cent.

“I mean, I’m a fan of Eminem,” Ross told MTV. “I’m a fan first and foremost. But after defeating Curly, my confidence is at an all-time high. Maybe before I wouldn’t have challenged him, but I’m contemplating it now. The game is commending me for my victory. That’s all I wanted to do was … punish the opposition. I think I’ve done a great job and I’m gonna continue to do that.”

Ross was reportedly at Atlanta strip club, The Gold Club, after the Soul Train Awards taping, but he has yet to address his exit.

(November 12)

UPDATE: Rick Ross was interviewed by Tim Westwood and was asked about walking out at the Soul Train Music Awards. The Miami rapper cleared the air and said it had nothing to do with losing the award.

“I came the day before and they gave me a mic for rehearsals, and I had no input on the performance," the Bawse told Westwood. "We done worked a long time to get in this position not to just get thrown on stage. We had just did our thing at the BET Awards and played a part of that performance down to the pyros on stage. I just want to be part of the production….it wasn’t nothing personal to no one.“

[ChristinaE12]

Really wish someone would shut this fat fuck up. And who ever told him he beat 50 in that whole beef shit? I'd really like to know how or where he gets that from. This guy is fuckin delusional.

50's VIDEOS killed Officer Ricky.

Word..I doubt anyone can kill Fifty in a beef,its not like 50 will do some dope songs but dude can fuck you up in even worst ways.

Go Fifty

[NicoleEM]

Damn Ross has some nice dreams....defeating 50...
But technically he never said he left cause he lost that award,but maybe Chrisette knows more then we think

[Slim's Shady]

smh Rick Ross is such a clown. 50 killed you, you fatass

[GenePeer]

This is how it should have been.

"I came the day before and they gave me a mic for rehearsals, and I had no input on the performance," the Bawse told Westwood. "We done worked a long time to get in this position not to just get thrown-" "Bullshit," coughed Westwood "-on stage. We had just did our thing at the BET Awards and played a part of that performance down to the pyros on stage. I just want to be part of the production….it wasn’t nothing personal to no one," the Bawse continued.

wat a fat loser

Honestly, 50 did lose to Officer Ricky.... in the end. When it comes to the rap disses, neither of them stood out. When it came to personal attacks, 50 embarrassed the shit out of that clown. But in the end, Officer Ricky has a large fanbase that is growing, putting out better music (according to the majority, definitely not my opinion) and most importantly, selling records.

I live in Brooklyn, New York. Up until maybe 4 months ago, Officer Ricky was a nobody here. But when I was down in Miami on vacation, he has a buzz there like 50 did when he first got hot. No exaggeration, he is HUGE in Miami, biggest rapper out (pun intended.) Now after BMF, and some other decent joints to blast in your car with the windows down, he is even starting to get hot in N.Y. While 50's career is the lowest it's ever been, and has been on a steady decline ever since GRODT.

EDIT: Lloyd Banks - "Officer Down" is better than anything 50 or Ross has put out in the last 5 years.

Rick Ross is a joke. If he won this award over Eminem, then there should be a real issue. Wake up Ricky, you can't rap anyway you fat fuck

[Wreck]

50 cent's worst song >>>>>>> Rick Ross best song


When that Ross mothafucka drops an album that can touch the feet of ''Curtis'' let alone Get Rich or Die Tryin and the Massacre then let him talk

Sorry to go off topic for a second but Curtis? That album was trash, please. The Massacre album was even worst. It's hilarious when people co-sign that whack ass, poppy bullshit album. I like a few of Ross' songs, and I thought his last album was good, but I think he's dumb as fuck to try to keep talking about Marshall. I will say though, Ross didn't win the 50 beef, but while Ross is improving, Curtis is getting worst. He hasn't had a good album since Get Rich. And his movie sucked too.
