Rick Ross aongezwa show ya MAMA's, kutua Afrika kwa mara ya kwanza..!

Rick Ross ameongezwa ktk kikosi kitakacho perform show ya MTV Africa Music Awards with Airtel (MAMA's) ambapo atajumuika na P-Unit, Jozi (SA), Wande Coal (Nija), (Ivory Coast),DJ Arafat 2Face (Nigeria), Daddy Owen (Kenya), Banky W (Nigeria), (DRC), Fally IpupaTeargas (South Africa) na Cabo Snoop (Angola)

Visiting Africa for the first time to take part in the 11 December spectacular, US rapper Rick Ross has been described by the New York Times as “one of rap’s most potent and creative forces”.

The tattoo-loving, six-foot, larger-than-life rap figure first came to attention with “Hustlin”, his 2006 debut single. Influenced by artists like Luther Campbell and Notorious B.I.G, Ross, a.k.a. William Roberts, aimed to put Miami back in rap's national spotlight and went on to do just that with his 2006 album “Port of Miami”, which went to number one on the Billboard album chart.

Similar acclaim followed for “Trilla” (2007) and “Deeper Than Rap” (2009), while his 2010 album release “Teflon Don”, which debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200, has garnered critical acclaim for its emotional depth, cinematic production, sleek, synth-heavy beats, and rich soundscapes. Ross is nominated in the Best International category at the MAMA awards



The MAMAs will take place at the Eko Hotel & Suites in Lagos on Saturday 11 December 2010 and will broadcast on MTV base (DStv Channel 322), MTV platforms around the world and partner TV stations from 18 December 2010.
