The real Rick Ross, former drug king Freeway Ricky Ross, has officially filed suit against againt not only Maybach Musik boss Rick Ross, but also Jay-Z. The paperwork was filed in a California federal courthouse and it is becoming apparent that he is trying to block the release of the upcoming "Teflon Don" album, adding Jay-Z to the suit for his culpability in sign Rick Ross to Def Jam records. Both Rick Ross and Jay-Z will have their day in court as both are required to testify in front of a judge as to why Freeway Ricky Ross should not be granted a temporary restraining order.
The legal documents were accompanied by a temporary restraining order for preliminary and permanent injunction relief to block the release of Ross’ forthcoming album Teflon Don. Rapper Jay-Z, Maybach Music Group, Slip-N-Slide Records and UMG Recordings are also named in the lawsuit as defendants.
“I just want my name back. I don’t want to have to be ‘the real Rick Ross.’ When I go places I have to explain to people that I am the real one because Def Jam has put him on TV and now people recognize him. It causes a conflict,” Freeway Ricky explained. “It ain’t really against William Roberts [Rick Ross] you know what I’m saying?”
