Rick Ross’ Tiny Desk takes place in the gallery space of Miami artist Rich B Caliente, The Boss’ longtime collaborator and friend. Even though the MIA street dignitary is now living in Atlanta, Ross insisted that his Tiny Desk (home) concert get captured in the city where his roots are anchored and where he rose to rap stardom.
This Tiny Desk marks just the second time Ross has performed with a live band. On "Super High," from his Teflon Don album, drummer Rashid Williams and bassist Thaddaeus Tribbett lay down the foundation for Ross’ smooth cadence and signature nonchalance. Background singer and Ne-Yo protege Troy Tyler projects the lead vocal lines originally sung by his mentor.
Next, vocalist Elijah Blake steps up on Ross' smash hit "B.M.F. (Blowin’ Money Fast) and “Aston Martin Music.” On the latter, Monty Reynolds drops in with the sparse, yet catchy key melody that made it the contagious hit single it was in 2010.
At one point, Ross pauses between songs to speak on his inspirations. "So many inspired the Boss,” he says. “I could look at any brother on the street and get some inspiration from them, regardless of how many followers you got on social media, regardless of what you're riding in. I could learn something from you. I ain't scared to. Let's make sure we keep building."

Man only Ross can have that classical feel with gangsta music.
Why no one told me this was out here! I can’t stop laughing! Those highjacking fools made this performance epic. You give someone an inch and they color their hair pink then turned your performance into a collaboration no one asked for.

Pink hair backup singer ft. Rick Ross and Friends: Tiny Desk
when you find out “Elijah Blake” is the pink hair guy 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ i’m disappointed
I though the same thing!
@@matthewurbina14 Say it ain't so!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
“ Larryyyy Hoverrrrrr”😭😭😭😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Singing his little heart out 🤗
Wasn't he AWFUL😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can see how the performance didn’t follow the usual form for rappers but I think it was lit all around. The background singers weren’t bad their delivery was just unique. Overall I love it all. Dj was lit tooo
Rick Ross is so generous. Very few musicians would give their BVs this much freedom. 🙇🏿
As soon as I heard those background singers I minimized to look at the comments because I knew I couldn't be the only one thinking ''Oh wow!!''
The first notes made me cringe and the video hadn't even started.
THE ACCURACY!!!
likewise haha
My husband was watching it on our Roku, and I had to come look up the comments on my phone. Lol.
Word up
This has got to be the funniest Tiny DEsk Performance ever. Rick Ross did well but the pink-haired background singer is freaking hilarious. He thought this was his performance.
17:43 WTH lol ...
19:27 lol
It was the sway of the hips for meeeeee. 🤣🤣🤣
He was doing the most!!! 😂😭 I paused the video to come read the comments cuz I know I can’t be the only one who see this 💀😭
@@jnetteepooh994 I had to backspace out of that omgawsh!
I love how he let everybody shine including himself, that showed me he's a good hearted guy
March, 2024 still watching this
🔥🔥🔥
This gives me hope that I can sing vocals one day 🤣
Right
I can sing better..
I can definitely sing better lol
🤣 keep shooting for the stars, brother.
@@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power If Kci and JoJo still get shows and these jokers can sing for Rozay, I’m almost there!!
The singers turned this masterpiece session into comedy
Disagree. Singer ona left was great
@@Trickdaddyphil the singer on the left is zero, the singer on the right has more potential, but he is doing way way too much, both of them were bad
@@Sjbjo dang! 😂😂🤦🏽♀️ “both of them were bad”
@@poobkjm Truth be told
They making most of there opportunities
Tears of Joy always hits different
The best Tiny Desk so far. The live band, Ross’ song selection, and yes even the background singers made this a concert worthy performance.
Ppl won’t appreciate Ross till he’s gone. Dude is one of the best to ever do it
I’m your 24th like. rip Kobe .. Ross is so dope
The talk about anything but he's music and talent .
I say this all the time
Ross verse on devil in a new dress is one of the best verses in hip hop yet no one talks about it lol
@@MikeypoloVR verse was so hard he had to make a music for it
“What are we going to do today Pinky”
“TAKE OVER THE TINY DESK BRAIN!”
Hahahahaha!!
I can not!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
You winnnnn 😂😂😂😂
You won!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
They're having so much fun!! If I could sing I'd act the same way.
I’m 56 yrs old and don’t really listen to rap music 🎼 but I thoroughly enjoyed all of this .. dancing in the kitchen making my food and all …. Rick Ross is the boss for real
The background singers gotta be his nephews ..or they owed him some money 😂
Trash turned it off 😂😂
I was thinking that. Cuz Mr. Colorful hair cannot sing!
he really spoiled the show
BOSS comment!
hahaha the one with pink hair is Elijah Blake, a grammy award winner. He just seems to not be good live lol
When pink hair said “I got a dream” I felt that 😂😂
😂😂😂
😭😂😂😂😂😂😂
I read this as it was happening and that made this comment 37.5 times funnier
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Look at the versatility in his music and performers…… no wonder Rick Ross maintains on top of the game. Respect from Australia Rick….. you are the one true boss of music! 💵💵💵💵💵👍

Ross is a musician. Listen to that music, those instruments. This is more than rap...and rap is dope. :)
I’m here from TikTok and this didn’t disappoint! 😂😂
Idk what’s funnier the background singers or this comment section 😂😂😂
Definitely the comment section 🤣🤣

Tye Tribbetts lil brother
These background singers are crackin me tf up...did y’all practice ?🥴
Hey boo!!!
ROFL
Sounds like like they regarded without the rest of the band and reunited on stage
They could have sat this one out frfr
the man with pink hair is Elijah Blake. He is actually a singer, i recognize him from the 1st note he hit ^^
I’m sorry but when dude with the pink hair started rapping drake part I was done 😭😭
🤣
Made me appreciate Drake's vocals
Turn in auto tune please somebody. Mane I would hate to see them on showtime at the Apollo
No cap lol
Wait nooooooo I came to the comments too fast. I would have died when this part came up if I didn't read this first.
I love when Artist take time out of their show to let the members of the band shine! Rick Ross is a real one!
This performance lit!!! Everyone was vibing. Guess that shows the presence/energy of Ross, to move them in such a way they didn’t care about appearances but just being apart of something greater than self. Beautiful ❤ Learning perfectionism is overrated
I had to stop watching. It’s 4:30 Am and I’m laughing way too loud. I’ll revisit this in the morning-
Comment section is fire
Boy these comments are hilarious 😂😂😂, but over all Ross was 🔥🔥
Eish I'm laughing at all the comments tjo
Ross the Band and the Dj was the only people needed 😂

In defense of the background singer on the left, he actually played his part and only sung when needed so stop saying (singers) with an “s”
