Rapper Rick Ross has released a remixed track following the drive-by shooting attempt on his life, while at least one rival implied that the incident was staged.
Though accounts of the Rick Ross drive-by vary and he has yet to comment on the incident, the self-proclaimed “Boss” did what he does best: Rap.
“I can’t believe I’m alive,” he said, dropping a rhyme about his near-death experience into a recording by, Kendrick Lamar, titled "B---- Don’t Kill my Vibe."
Meanwhile, police have released edited 911 calls placed when the gunfire broke out about 5 a.m. Monday on Las Olas Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Bullets pierced the windows of nearby businesses, as Ross crashed Rolls-Royce into the front door of an apartment building amid a hail of bullets.
Ross (real name William L. Roberts II), posted a link to a news story about the shooting on his Facebook page, but his publicist did not return calls.
Social-media sites and users, however, were abuzz about the incident, and there was some skepticism that the Rick Ross shooting was even a real thing.
Some tweeters even theorized that the gunfire was staged to help boost his “street cred,” which has been a source of contention in the rap community.
The timing also raised eyebrows, coming just before the Grammy Awards, where Ross is nominated for Best Rap Album
50 Cent, who knows something about street violence and feuding with Rick Ross, declared the shooting a hoax, tweeting, “lol it looks staged to me.”
Ross has also feuded with fellow rappers such as Young Jeezy, and reportedly received death threats from a group called the Gangster Disciples.
It seems unlikely that Rick Ross would stage an attempt on his life when he has plenty of real enemies/cred already, but that's the Internet for you.
There are whole Sandy Hook conspiracy groups, so by comparison Ross' small-scale effort to burnish his hardness wouldn't be too hard to pull off.

Are you tired of having a perfect take be messed up by your parents or friends opening your door?
Or by loud/noisy neighbors, or maybe you need to be more quiet in your apartment complex. Or maybe you have a home studio but people will take you more serious with a nice "vocal booth".
Lets face it, YOU NEED A VOCAL BOOTH if you have your own recording studio set up!
Here are my reasons:
-Brings more clients in to my studio
-Better sound/treatment
-Easy mixing and equalizing the frequencies
-Much smoother sessions
-People can chat away when in the studio with that client
I have come to find that every artist will bring a "buddy" when recording, so now that person can feel free to make a bit of noise without having to re-do a take!
I built this vocal booth with a budget of $500, everything you see cost just about that!
You can build this in as little as 1 week and have a professional recording isolation booth set up in your home!

By now you probably know that, twitter is very popular and everyone is trying to get their follow game up. All you artists listen up!
You want followers, but you mainly want people who are going to like your music and what you offer right? Well, I am going to reveal a trick I used for 1 month that WORKS and will get you more followers in your category!
Lets say you are a Rapper and you are influenced or sound like 50 Cent. Go ahead and visit his twitter, and check out his followers..Probably going to see a couple million, THIS IS GREAT!
Now, lets make a schedule for this..Too much may get you banned from twitter, which is no good.
Monday-Follow up to 350 people on 50's list
Thursday-Un-Follow 200
Keep this routine going for as long as you want, the more you do this the more followers so its up to you on what you get in return. I found that 4 out of 15 followed me back, and not immediately. Usually if you follow a couple hundred you will get around 70 followers within a week and the best thing is these people already like your sound if you are a lot like 50!

After a fight broke out at Lil Wayne's 30th birthday party, Game was one of the people ejected.
TMZ reports that Game was hanging with Chris Brown, Sean Kingston, and Wayne, when rapper 211 walked up to Game and started talking trash.
Allegedly, Game punched 211, and a fight broke out.
Eventually, security broke up the fight, and kicked the rappers out of the party.

Two of Def Jam Records' biggest acts fought tonight at the 2012 BET Hip-Hop Awards, according to HOT 97's Funkmaster Flex. Rick Ross and Young Jeezy, along with their respective Maybach Music and CTE entourages first exchanged words, before things got physical, according to eye-witness Flex. "Pushing and shoving" is what the veteran deejay reported via Twitter, before the fight escalated.
The backstage tussle moved to the parking lot of the Boisfeuillet Jones Atlanta Civic Center. The exit included Ross and Jeezy, according to a report on Complex.com. There, gunshots were heard, and eye-witnesses reported a police arrest. During the fight, Bad Boy Records artist Machine Gun Kelly reportedly was maced.
