Rick Ross Gets "Rich Forever" Face Tattoo

Rick Ross gets one of his mixtape titles tattooed on his face by acclaimed artist Nikko Hurtado.
Rick Ross obtained a "Rich Forever" tattoo on his face recently.
A photograph of the rapper's new face tattoo was posted on social media by Nikko Hurtado, the acclaimed tattoo artist responsible for the ink. 
"Rich Forever" is likely symbolic for Ross as it is also the emcee's 2012 mixtape project title. Rich Forever is an effort from the rapper that earned a "Just A Mixtape" rating from HipHopDX at the time of its release. 
In 2012, at the time the set was revealed, the rapper spoke about what the title meant. "I feel for you to be rich forever, you have to be rich with ideas, rich with concepts, rich with thoughts," he said in an interview with Mixtape Daily. "To me, that's what being rich forever is."

Rick Ross Wins Court Case Over Freeway Ricky Ross


Rick Ross has a great reason to bellow his "hunngh" grunt now. That's because he's going to be able to keep his name.

3m360 reported that on Thursday (March 29), a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge dismissed a suit filed by former drug dealer "Freeway" Rick Ross, who tried to claim ownership of the name. "Freeway" Rick Ross was trying to take sole ownership of the name and stop the Bawse from using it, but that didn't work.

Thursday's court ruling signals a big victory for Ricky Rozay, who had to give a deposition in a Miami court back in early February on why he should own the trademark of the moniker Rick Ross.

This comes after "Freeway" Rick Ross filed a $10 million lawsuit against the rapper in May 2010, accusing him of profiting off of his name illegally. However, a judge ruled that "Freeway" couldn't sue because of his criminal rap sheet and that case was subsequently dismissed in Federal Court in November 2010.

"Freeway" Rick later appealed the decision in a state court, dragging out the case until Thursday's decision.

Currently on a European tour, Rozay didn't immediately acknowledge Thursday's victorious court ruling via his Twitter account. However, Ross has been enjoying a solid year thus far.

After suffering two separate seizures last October, the Bawse started this year off on a solid start with the release of his Rich Forever mixtape, which featured the likes of Nas, Diddy, 2 Chainz and his MMG family Meek Mill and Wale.

He's kept his sound bubbling via guest appearances, ranging from the likes of Nicki Minaj to Game.
