Rick Ross has reunited with frequent collaborator Pharrell Williams on the aggressive sounding “For The Money”.
A snippet of the track and video was teased by Rozay with the clip taking place around Paris and featured both the biggest boss and Pharrell in finely tailored suits.
In a video hyping the track ahead of its release on Friday (June 27), Ross said: “It’s finally official. Ricky Rozay this Friday, my new single, produced by Pharrell, for real. We shot the video in Paris, the video world premiere is heavyweight. Pharrell, you always come through for your brother. Much love. This Friday, we dropping a straight international global slapper.”
He added: “It’s such an elegant, classy affair. A fly, international record. Y’all know how Ricky Rozay get down. It’s time for this.
“This Friday, we breaking records. This a new level of creativity. An international smash record produced by Pharrell. Ricky Rozay sliding on that motherfucker you know the way I do. This right here is different. This will forever guarantee my name is set in stone.”
Ross and Pharrell previously hooked up on God Forgives, I Don’t stand out “Presidential” as well as The Neptunes’ “Get Down” and Rich Forever deep cut “MMG the World is Ours”.
The usually prolific rapper has been a little bit quiet on the music front of late, as he appeared to be focusing his attention on various beefs and business ventures.
Rozay recently opened up his own dental practice in Atlanta with the dentist who created the rapper’s veneers.
With photos from the grand opening, Rozay announced the new business venture in an Instagram post back in March.
“We did it @drmariomontoya ! We began discussing this plan 3 years ago in Cali,Columbia and now we’ve opened our 1st dentist office in the U.S.!!” he wrote. “Everyone reading this, COME GET YOUR ‘BILLION DOLLAR SMILE’ in Sandy Springs ATLANTA now. Grateful for the opportunity to play a part in this ICONIC MOVE! Invest in your smile this year.”
Dr. Mario Montoya is known for his work on various Hip Hop artists such as French Montana, T-Pain, Rich the Kid and 6ix9ine.
Zara Larsson has indicated that she may have cancelled her December 3 appearance at the Formula One Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The singer initially confirmed that she would not attend, before removing the comment and sharing a more detailed explanation of why the performance no longer feels right for her.
The Swedish star was scheduled to take the stage at Etihad Live on Yas Island during the Yasalam After-Race Concerts. Zara and Lewis Capaldi were due to launch the weekend’s entertainment. However, supporters encouraged her to reconsider the booking because of concerns surrounding the United Arab Emirates’ reported connections to Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces, a paramilitary organisation accused of committing atrocities during the nation’s civil conflict.
A fan commented: “Please read about what UAE is doing to Sudan then cancel your Abu Dhabi show!” Zara responded: “I will not be going to Abu Dhabi.” Fans later realised that both comments had been removed.
She then shared that she had been considering what it means for her, as an artist, to perform in particular countries.
The Midnight Sun singer explained: “I think about that a lot in my life as an artist… I wanna perform and spread joy and music for people in every country, because no single person is their government.
“I’ve met so many wonderful people from every corner of the world and I know this to be true in my heart. I love people, and I love my fans soooo much.”
Zara acknowledged that her original comment “maybe came off as an impulsive response,” but explained that she had given the booking serious thought. She now believes withdrawing is the decision that “aligns with me the most right now, for many different personal reasons beyond politics.”
She continued: “Maybe I’ll delete both comments and do a better statement soon. I hope to sing with you in the beautiful future!”
