Nicki confirmed it would be “Champion,” but later decided to go with “I Am Your Leader.” However, Nicki confirmed “Champion” would still be a single. Which has yet to be announced as to what the official release date would be. I Am Your Leader features guest vocals from Cam’ron and Rick Ross. The single was also produced by Hit-Boy, who was also “Niggas in Paris” co-producer. “I Am Your Leader” is a urban Rap song, which heavily utilizes Hip-Hop. The song consists of four verses, two verses from Nicki, one verse from Ross and another from Cam’ron respectively. The song also has four short hooks to mold it all together. The Video has garnered positive reviews from critics, noting its high energy, fun and wackiness. MTV gave the video a positive review saying, “Only in a Nicki Minaj video can you find two of rap’s hardest street figures performing in such a wacky setting, but it’s the juxtaposition that “I Am Your Leader” offers which makes it so fun.” Check out the wacky collab video below just after the jump… » Read more..

Hot Music Video – So Sophisticated (Explicit) – Rick Ross ft. Meek Mill + Behind The Scenes

God Forgives, I Don’t is the upcoming fifth studio album by rapper Rick Ross, scheduled for release on July 31, 2012. Ross emphasized that less features would be on the album, as opposed to previous releases, as well as creating the album with a “90s Vintage hip-hop sound.” Ross recently worked with Dr. Dre, saying that Dre “highly influenced” his work. Ross confirmed that he and Dre collaborated on records for God Forgives as well as Detox. While on his 2012 European Tour, Ross explained the reasoning for the album title, saying “I wanted to approach this album like Scorsese would have approached a film. I wanted it to be a bold statement, a dark statement and have music to tell the story behind it. It felt like a film.” Ross also confirmed Jay-Z as a featured artist. Rick Ross went shirtless in his new video for his second single “So Sophisticated”, off of his upcoming “God Forgives, I Don’t” album. That made some people shake their head in disgust.
