Rick Ross has came out and denied that threats from a street gang had anything to do with cancellation of the MMG tour that he was on with fellow label mates Meek Mill and Wale according to Yahoo.
According to the Miami radio station 99 Jamz the cancellations was down to the promoter who Ross say "wasn't really handling his business,"
MTV had broke the news that Ross cancelled the tour that was scheduled to run until mid December concluding in New York City.
The threats issued at Ross came from a gang known as the Gangster Disciples. The problem arose when the rapper said the group's chairman Larry Hoover's name on the chorus of his single B.M.F and the street gang took to YouTube to air their disapproval. Ross however still insist that the tour was cancelled not because of the gang's actions but rather by promoters shortcomings.
"I'm a certified man, I am a real boss and this is something that everybody need to understand, gangsters move in silence," Ross said. "And in situations like that, I remember something an old-school Dade County gangster told me a long time ago, that any dude can stand in the crowd with 30, 40 dudes and everybody real, everybody trill, everybody about that life, everybody gangsta. But when the choppers come out everybody fold."
The Florida base rapper had apologized via Twitter to fans in North Carolina the site of his most recent cancellation and vowed to return to the state in the near future.
"North Carolina I wuz so excited to perform tomorro wit #MMG Promoters cancelled show but I'll be Back ASAP. #luv" he wrote.
The rapper also added.
"I want to apologize to all of my fans who I missed performing for due to the cancellations and want to let them know that I will get back to their cities," Rick Ross told AllHipHop.com on Friday. "I enjoyed my experience with my little bros Wale and Meek Mill and I'm ready to get back in the studio to make good music."
