    damn i see alot of people dreaming. smh. Ross will never go plat because hes been exposed. And idk what hood yall from but he gets no love here

    yeah he really don't get love like that where i'm from cuz of that being somebody else every other song . We would rather listen to jeezy,gucci, waka before ross in the club or whip

    I said IF HE WENT PLATINUM, I never said he would. The point is Teflon Don is currently a little over 600k sold And we can all but guarantee that most of those were black ppl. We like Rozay and If we don't support by going out and buying the album, WE WILL GO TO CLUB DATES to see ol boy. I'm not discounting album sales, but Ross is able to get black ppl to support him in all kinda ways so that platinum plaque isn't a necessity for him. I don't know another mainstream rapper who would perform in some of the venues Ross goes.....black venues. ROSS TRUSTS US

    Can all but guarantee most of 600k were black? Prove it, ill wait...

    Its not worship its just admiration of the mans talent at making music. If you cant feel him then he just ain't for you. I'm not sure why that concept is so hard to understand.

    To have 3-4 Gold Plaques, Charting Hit Singles you have a big white fan base who purchased these records or downloded them on I Tunes


    The stats from the industry researchers proved this


    Why you so insecure about Ross having a big white suburban fan base @ StillDreaming it's been known since the NWA era that white teens from the suburbs eat up the kinda Rap Ross, NWA, Jeezy, 2pac, Gucci Mane, T.I. etc do


    If Dead Prez a pro black group that openly disrespects whites have a white fan base and following who attend there shows you really think a Trap Rapper like Ross doesn't? lmao


    Black people from the street have called out on Ross being fake countless times it's blacks who are from the street still mad about that Correction Officer thing and him lying about it to this day as well as him being a College dude yet Rap's about being a King Pin so of course the black community is laughing at a fake, phony, lying dude like Ross


    Just like Vanilla Ice he lied about his past, backround etc especially considering the black community in the hood hates law enforcment historically and Ross was a Corrections Officer for 2 years


    You think blacks, whites, latinos etc pretty much all races at the video tape of Ross baby mother having sex


    Come on StillDreaming get in the real world

    There is no proof just using common sense. You hear how these white folks hate this man on the internet, I mean its evident by where this man performs. Most rappers tour and book club dates in areas where most of there purchasing audience resides. Ross really just started touring Europe this year and if you follow him on twitter he's almost always at black clubs. He'll be here in SC the end of May for Memorial Day weekend performing for BLACK PPL. I can't prove who bought his album but I can make a logical deduction of who didn't......

    How can a true fan of Ross be insecure of Ross having a big white fan base that purchase his Albums making them Gold


    It's just facts most consumers of Rap Music are white teens so any Rapper that sells Gold, Platinum or more has a huge white fan base who purchased the Album's at stores or on I Tunes

    If he thinks he does then he won't last cause most of the black community don't support music, we'd rather buy some $150 pair of J's then buy a $10 cd.

    Why are you stereotyping your own people? Stop it 5!

    Theres always exceptions but you know for a fact Ross has a big white fan base StillDreaming

    The white teens from the Burbs always got their ear open to what blacks in the hood are listening to liking and they follow just cos blacks in the hood like it


    Ross having Gold Albums proves that whites buy his Album's mostly]


    You gotta flop like JR Writer and Duke Da ? to not have a white fan base


    Theres no way a consistant Gold seller doesnt have a white fan base that purchased the Albums mostly


    Blacks listen to Ross alot of course wether it be suburban or inner city blacks but key factor is they just download his Albums for free or get a bootleg while the suburban white kids but them

    This thread isn't about what OUTSIDERS think of Ross. This is about how Ross still makes music for a BLACK audience even though he's only going gold. Ross ain't selling out like Dre and Lupe have done and I applaud him for that. WE'LL KEEP SUPPORTING HIM by buying his albums and purchasing tickets To club events.

    Yea us blacks only download music, we don't support any hip-hop at all, only whites actually like ROSS enough to go in a store and buy his music. Oh yea my African brothers also traded me to the Europeans and whites never enslaved anyone. Got ya chick, now please exit stage left.
