Rick Ross GFID Pushed Back

Rick Ross guaranteed that his new album God Forgives I Don’t was dropping this December. But now, things have changed. According to Island Def Jam Senior VP of Marketing, Chris Atlas:

“I think we’re all aware of his recent health issue, and based on some of the minor setbacks with that, we weren’t able to confirm certain opportunities, because he physically wasn’t able to deal with certain things at the time,” says Atlas. “We want this to be his biggest album — we know it’s going to be his biggest album — so we did not want to pressure him into releasing an album based on the sake of a date.

    I love my bitches and you the boss didnt blow up so we had to push it back……..better xplanation.

  2. H-town says:

    Jeezy got this nigga sweating Tip back home ATL back on top I coulda swore this nigga said he would defiantly not push it back

    I second that but like always he lies to his fans

  4. Rick Ross lost says:

    Health concerns my ass this fat fuck dropped 2 singles that flopped. Take the L and keep it movin Fat Boy.

  5. Black says:

    Health issues delayed him, not hard to understand at all. It’s not easy putting out an album, theirs a lot of deadlines involved. I’d rather have a quality album on a later date than half fast album just to meet a deadlines. Drakes album was pushed back so he can give it to us in its entirety.
    Stop hatting.

  6. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    *Sarcasm* What?! Pushed Back? William is the biggest rapper in the game his album doesn’t need to be pushed back. Atleast he got Jay-Z on album. Meanwhile Jeezy got Jay & Em on his album.

  7. Diablo_Ksh says:

    No buzz, no hit singles

  8. capone says:

    I really can’t help but laugh. WE DON’T PUSH ALBUMS BACK. I’m A Boss. This guy relies on features and producers to get him by. If he put out an album by himself it would never sell. Money don’t make you real. Fakes are Fakes.

  9. Smoke screen says:

    Imma still cop when it drops though….rozay makes some good ass music.

  10. baous says:

    All you haters are fools….how the fuck can we work on an album when hes in a hospital. You The Boss is #19, its shooting up the charts, if he didn’t get those damn seizures this shit would drop, and be the best album EVER, fuck that TM103 shit, shit got delayed TWO YEARS, this was delayed because of his health, fuck ass haters, Rozay best rapper alive

  11. The Guy says:

    LET ME SAY IT BEFORE YOU THINK IT

    NOBADY CARES

  12. NuJew says:

    ^Yeah… 19 on the R&B charts lol

  13. Black says:

    this site should be called RAPHATER

  14. Slim says:

    The two singles didn’t do that well, but I don’t think that’s the reason for the push back. Having a hit single doesn’t equate an album that sells well, just look at Kanye’s record. Shit, Wale and J Cole’s record didn’t have a hit single, and they sold well as well.

  15. Whowantwhat says:

    Fuck Cop lovers! This is why hop-hop is corny now. Y’all young niggas are confused!

  16. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    Y’all young niggas are confused!…BINGO !

  17. TLM says:

  18. Slim says:

    @Black

    ^^^^^

    Co-sign on that. The hate on here and Nah Right etc. is comedy. Why come on a rappers post to comment that you hate them? That’s like fucking a fat broad and saying you hate fat broads right after.

  23. BRu973 says:

    Smart Move on both Ross & DefJam’s behalf…I’m telling ya’ll WATCH…2012 is the rebirth of everything! Ya’ll will start noticing that alot less music will be coming out, but the quality of the music will improve. Alot of crappy artists are fading off, and will continue to fade off. This is what happens when artists & producers flood you with bullshit music for 10 + years!

  24. Your Friendly Neighborhood Dopeman says:

    Jeezy wins.

  25. truthhurtthefans says:

    HAHAHAHAHA “WE DONT PUSH NOTHING BACK OVER HERE”

  26. the void says:

    it seems like its a combination of the singles that flopped and his obesity that pushed the album back. ross fans are shook.

  27. Swag Juice says:

  28. HowUAct? says:

    What happened to the very cocky comment last month on the radio?:

    “We don’t push projects back!”
    That was directed 2 Jeezy… Hmmm

  29. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    @COLD MEMORIES…Im the Biggest William Hater? Im insulted by that comment. William is my favorite “comedian rapper”.

  30. In Your Fucking Face says:

    Why Are Yall Surprised Though? God Spares No Man To Humility This Is A Humbling Moment For Rozay… Take Sometime Boss Make Some Hits Hit Up Them Fresh Producers And Dopest Writers And Make You A Great Album Fuck The Propaganda. HITS MOFUCKAS

  31. Black Shady says:

    Lets be real ; Ross doesnt need a hit single. Drake had no hit single out and he bout to do 500k first week

    plus Ross is on every thing…with Wale and Meek. That “Tats on my arm” and “work” is enough buzz

  32. fuk waka says:

  42. YOUR pusha says:

    this will be hiphops biggest album since the blueprint 1 mark my words!

  43. The_Truth says:

    HE KNOWS THOSE 2 SINGLES DIDN’T CREATE NO BUZZ. AND IT WOULD BE A BAD LOOK FOR JEEZY WHO’S BEEN PUSHED BACK SINCE FOREVER TO OUTSELL HIM THE FOLLOWING WEEK. MAKING DEF JAM & MMG LOOK LIKE NOTHING BUT BABY FOOD. THAT’S WHY. JEEZY WAS GONNA OUTSELL HIS ALBUM.

  44. Black says:

    Jeezy fell of.. a while ago. He makes very boring music now.. The best thing he has are records he made with shawty redd. but his new sound is just boring.. Flow is repetitive.

  45. Black says:

    On the record, HATE equals Success because if they just didn’t like you. They would ignore post like these..

  46. JaySon says:

    GFID was my most anticipated album of the year 🙁

  47. Oj da Cornball says:

    BS, the first post got it right.

    back to more singles to pick up steam.

    God forgives, billboard top100 don’t, Officer.

  48. Word says:

    It might really be his health though. I didnt even know Ross dropped his single so that might be the issue also. Oh well, pretty sure the album will be okay

  49. me says:

    Of course the vp of idj is lying. ross has no buzz besides the 15 songs he has on the radio. Jeezy droppin and his new joint is everywhere, whats it called?

  50. the void says:

    ross knew he couldnt put out his album any where near the date jeezy drops. hes heard about all the good reviews. i wanna hear that song jeezy did with em and jay asap!

  51. nzo says:

    ROSS GONNA DO 450-500K HIS FIRST WEEK THIS PUSH BACK WILL WRK IN HIS FAVOR LOOK WHAT HAPPENED AFTER DRAKE N WAYNE GOT PUSHED BACK THEY DID HUGE NUMBERS HIS FAN BASE HAS GROWN TREMENDOUSLY SINCE HIS LAST ALBUM

    STYLES P MASTER OF CEREMONIES IN STORES NOW

  52. 1Mil_E says:

    Be honest, Rozay never disappoints w. his LPs. ‘You The Boss’ I feel is a hit record… Apart from his health, I believe Rozay is in the process of mapping a 1M/ unit album (in 1week)— like Weezy. Time for him to turn it up another notch!

  53. Capeman says:

    YOLO, this album will be fire, can’t wait.
