The Biggest Fraud? Fort Lauderdale Media Questioning Whether Rick Ross' Drive-By Shooting Was A Publicity Stunt, Read 50 Cent's Tweet On Air [Video/Poll]
Video After The Jump
Rick Ross like to call himself "the biggest boss", but some are wondering today if the Miami rapper is really "the biggest fraud."
Ross was driving his Rolls Royce Monday morning in Fort Lauderdale with his girlfriend Shateria L. Moragne-el in the passenger seat when the car came under fire as they drove down Las Olas. Ross managed to get away from the gunfire before crashing his car into a building.
He later reportedly hired 24-hour armed bodyguards to watch his back day and night.
Now this is where the story starts to get fishy.
Fort Lauderdale TV station Channel 7 News questions how the barrage of bullets hit buildings in the area, but not one hit Ross' car. They say it may have been a hoax to stir up publicity for the rapper.
"Some people are wondering how you shoot at a Rolls-Royce, and you miss it [even though] it's so big," said Shelby Rushin, a DJ at the hip hop and R&B radio station 99 Jamz.
Channel 7 News reporter Vanessa Medina points out that it was Ross' 37th birthday and he's coming out with a new album. The reporter even read 50 Cent's tweet regarding the shooting.
So we have to ask what you people think. Was the shooting real? Or was it staged to drum up publicity for Ross' album which has no buzz?

Personally, I don't think it was staged. But I heard that Ross talked to the police after. It still leaves you wondering though, if no bullets hit the car how you know you was being shot at? Police can't even find who allegedly did it!

@FRANK GOODY Come on now. 1. Rick Ross is not "lyrically sick" LMFAO wtf? and 2. To be honest, YOU don't know if it was real or not, neither do the people saying it's a hoax. 50's not hating on nobody he just doesn't like Ross. You people seem to think cause one guy is poppin 50 feels some sort of way. Why would 50 hate when he got more money and has more publicity?

LOL@Namaste and @Top 3, even a mad person can figure out what Ross was trying to create there. Ross's career is rap only and that's the only thing fat boy can do. 50 making real money outside of music and you can't hold the man down because he is way smarter than all of you faggots. Ross's real money will never be at the same level of 50's real money. That's the truth.
