Rick Ross Makes The Argument For Dinner with JAY-Z Over 500K

We thought JAY-Z finally killed the ridicolous debate over whether you should take dinner with him or 500K when he explained you should definitely take the 500K.

“You got to take the money,” he told Gayle King. “What am I going to say? You got all that in the music for $10.99. That’s a bad deal. I wouldn’t tell you to cut a bad deal. Take the $500,000, go buy some albums and listen to the albums. It’s all there. If you piece it together and really listen to the music for the words, for what it is, it’s all there. Everything that I said was going to happen happened. Everything that I said I wanted to do I’ve done. And there’s the blueprint.”

Ever the contrarian, Rick Ross still disagrees.  He explained why you should take the Hov dinner, drawing on his own experience. 

“Imma take the dinner and Imma tell you why.  In ’08, before I turned in my second album, I had a meeting with Hov. We went to lunch. Philippe Chow, Manhattan.  The chicken, the orange chicken on the stick, with the peanut sauce was the vibe at the time. Let me cut through all the conversation," he said on his IG Live. "He said, ‘Rozay, versus writing to every beat you like, write to every record you could make work.' He told me a quick story about ‘Big Pimpin.’ I said, ‘Okay, bet.’ So I went from writing one record to every 80 beats I like, to writing 40 records out of every 80 beats I could make work. It took me to another level as a writer, another level as an artist. The amount of work I was putting out was next level. So you gotta ask yourself, are you ready to digest the knowledge or you just want to look at this watch at the table?"

Did that convince you?
