John Doe aka Ricky Ross.

The Albert Anastasia EP that Rick[y] Ross released this past summer created new hood anthems, in fact Ross had everyone thinking they were Big Meech & Larry Hoover - drug kingpins. Next Ross gave us the real "extended play" in Teflon Don, reintroducing us to "Maybach Music" along with Chrisette Michelle's soulful sounds and further stated that he was "Not a Star". 2010 was a good year for Ross, and in the giving spirit  he decided to gift us with another piece of hood goodness in "Ashes to Ashes".


I think I've been replaying "John Doe" & "9 Piece", they remind me much of "BMF" & "Mc Hammer".  The rest of the mixtape features cameo's from Diddy, Luda, Wale, Wiz Khalifa with soulful vocal samples from the heavens, in Barry White & Aaliyah.
