In addition to being a rapper, Rick Ross also produces records. He just bought a $5 billion private aircraft.
About his most recent purchase, Mr. Ross said that while it was his first airplane, it was most likely not his last.
The Grammy-nominated artist claims to be an avid car enthusiast and collector, devoting a large portion of his $55 million to vehicles.
He recently showcased his entire collection—more than 100 vehicles—at his Atlanta property during his car show.
With room for eighteen passengers, Rick Ross’s new aircraft is enormous.
Ross had it reconfigured for more space, even though it was originally intended to hold 20 people.
The jet is also fully customized, with a very eye-catching livery on the outside and leather seats throughout.
The words “Rick Ross” are displayed clearly on the fuselage, and the aircraft has a black and gold silhouette.
Several celebrities weighed in on the rapper’s recent purchase when he posted pictures of it on Instagram.
Busta Rhymes, TY Dolla Sign, Big Sean, and other coworkers took the time to congratulate him.
Even wrestler-turned-actor Dwayne Johnson and German fashion designer Philipp Plein offered their thoughts on the occasion.
