Ross’ next album, Teflon Don, arrives June 29. By Shaheem Reid Rick Ross Photo: Rodrigo Varela/ Getty Images Rick Ross has announced June 29 as the release date for his new LP, Teflon Don. The rap heavyweight released the first official single for the set on Monday (April 12), “Super High.” The record is produced by beat legend Clark Kent and features Ross’ Def Jam labelmate Ne-Yo . The drums are smothered in ’70s soul funk, and Ne-Yo brings his Grammy-winning vocals to serenade the ladies and make the fellas jealous as he brags about his spoils. “All these cars, all these stars all around me/ … To the sky, that’s where you’ll find me.” “We doing it big, it’s going down at 11,” Ross raps. “I’m doing it big pulling up in the 911/ … Baby girl, it’s now or never/ Got the condo on the beach, so our storms we shall weather/ F— the marketing, look at what I’m accomplishing/ I’m beating n—as by margins bigger than Fran Tarkenton.” Later, Ne-Yo gets his own verse: “Women of a caliber you only see in magazines and calendars/ And I’m sitting with Miss October, because my birthday’s in October.” Ross has been on a rampage as of late, with highly touted verses on remixes by Diddy (“Angels”), Waka Flocka Flame (“O Let’s Do It”) and Erykah Badu (the unofficial “Window Seat” remix). Last year, Ross explained his Teflon Don album title to MTV News: “You gotta understand, I feel like I overcame so many things. Not only in music, but in my everyday life — being a young black man, being an entrepreneur, being a father. I learned a lot of things. I’m turning right around, putting it back into music. It’s still a lot of things I deal with. Still a lot of negativity. That’s what it is, and that’s why I feel the title of my next studio album is so appropriate.” Are you excited to hear more new Rick Ross music? What do you think about “Super High”?
