ThrowBLKs: Rick Ross's "Deeper Than Rap"

The year is 2009, and one of rap's most storied legends is closing out his first chapter with elegance.

Welcome to our second installment of ThrowBLKs, featuring the album that helped introduce fans to a Rick Ross we had yet to see: Deeper Than Rap. Hear our thoughts on the first few years of The Boss's career, birthing a new South Florida renaissance and new issues with hip-hop's resident bully, 50 Cent. We cover the diss records and the infamous C.O. leak that leaves Ross with one chance to deliver an incredible response through 14 tracks.
