Rick Ross recently did an interview with Complex, where he got to show off the private jet that caused so much controversy.

Rick Ross found himself at the center of a bizarre internet controversy a couple of months ago after being spotted at the airport flying commercial. Haters immediately began clowning the artist, stating that his boss persona was a lie. Numerous assumptions were being made about Ross' wealth, and as you can imagine, it was mostly Drake's fanbase engaging in the discourse.

Ross made it clear that his private jet was simply in the shop being fitted with Starlink internet. However, there were people out there who refused to believe the artist. They thought this was a convenient lie, and that something nefarious was going on.

Well, Rozay has seemingly gotten the last laugh. During an interview with Complex, Ross showed off his airplane hangar, including his $70 million jet. It was here that Ross revealed how his Starlink upgrade cost $2 million.

Rick Ross Proves He's Still Got It

Ross went on to say that he does not see the jet as a symbol of his wealth. Instead, he believes it is symbolic of his various business deals. He is proud of how far he has come in his career, and he is making that crystal clear in the interview.

Despite showing off the jet, there are certainly going to be those out there who will disparage the artist regardless. Following the Drake beef in 2024, fans have not let Ross get away with anything. It's yet another demonstration of how the beef led to some of the worst discourse ever.

There is no telling when Drake fans will finally let up on Ross.
