Hurricanes by Rick Ross & Neil Martinez-Belkin Book Summary

*NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*
*AN XXL BEST RAPPER-PENNED BIOGRAPHY*

“A gripping journey.”—People

The highly anticipated memoir from hip-hop icon Rick Ross chronicles his coming of age amid Miami’s crack epidemic, his star-studded controversies and his unstoppable rise to fame.

Rick Ross is an indomitable presence in the music industry, but few people know his full story. Now, for the first time, Ross offers a vivid, dramatic and unexpectedly candid account of his early childhood, his tumultuous adolescence and his dramatic ascendancy in the world of hip-hop.

Born William Leonard Roberts II, Ross grew up “across the bridge,” in a Miami at odds with the glitzy beaches, nightclubs and yachts of South Beach. In the aftermath of the 1980 race riots and the Mariel boatlift, Ross came of age at the height of the city’s crack epidemic, when home invasions and execution-style killings were commonplace. Still, in the midst of the chaos and danger that surrounded him, Ross flourished, first as a standout high school football player and then as a dope boy in Carol City’s notorious Matchbox housing projects. All the while he honed his musical talent, overcoming setback after setback until a song called “Hustlin’” changed his life forever.

From the making of “Hustlin’” to his first major label deal with Def Jam, to the controversy surrounding his past as a correctional officer and the numerous health scares, arrests and feuds he had to transcend along the way, Hurricanes is a revealing portrait of one of the biggest stars in the rap game, and an intimate look at the birth of an artist.

Great Read 🙌🏼. Amazing story start to finish!

Great book !!!. Loved every chapter of this book especially that I grew up in Carol City, went to Carol City high. I hope Ricky Rozay has another book up his sleeve that focuses on how his life changed once he became a successful Rapper and his current lifestyle

Humorous and motivational. This book is not only humorous, but motivational. I’ve been a fan of Ross, but this solidifies him as a GOAT.

Rozay at his finest!. One of the best to ever do it, thank you for this bible. I appreciate you and everything you’ve done for my life. One of my biggest idols!

Worth the read!. I’m from Carol City so it was a must I read this book!! Thank you Ross for keeping Miami on the map!! ♥️

Excellent read!. I was always a fan of Ross musically, but it was his style and lyrical content. Now the stories makes sense, the homage being shown in his songs.

Rick Rozay. Enjoyed reading the book...you see these celebrities and think everything happened overnight...NO...there’s a story behind it..Rick told his...can only appreciate it

Amazing. You really get to know the BOSS himself RICK ROSS! How it wasn't just an overnight thing. But a decade till he reach his goal. And even then he still striving for more. Now i understand his music a little better. With more clarity than fog. A hustler made it. Self made it.

Great Book!. I learned so much more about Ross that I didn’t know, and learned a lot as well. With his music and this book, you can see where he was coming from on certain verses in his song.

The realisti and the biggest boss Ross. Read this book now 8times in 2years Every time I get a new iPhone it’s always the first book I buy 💯 the stories are are all authentic and the outcome of Ross situation he never gave up lost hope at time and truly relied on fait to become the biggest boss Motivation for true hustler 💯

🙄. He seriously refers to whites in this book as “crackers” 🤦🏼‍♀️ I have no desire to finish the book now and wish I could get my $12 back. Classless Rick Ross.

The biggest boss!. Best memoirs I’ve ever read. Great job Rozay!

Great Read. Finished in 2 days.. Great book. Read it in 2 days. Couldn’t put it down. I respect Ross for opening up his life as much as he did. You could tell he was leaving certain details about his life out, but he was still as open as anyone could expect. Great read.

Greatness is a process. This book is a Surprising inside look on how working hard and staying consistent can breed results. Fighting the powers that be is something thats almost 100% known to every black men. There are only a few options weather people want to believe it or not get a good job, play sports or become a rapper. Not always knowing the percentages to becoming a rapper or athlete is very low but with that knowledge you tend to shy away from what your actually destiny is. Chase your dreams stay consistent , work hard at it and celebrate the fruits of your labor. - John from the Bronx ‼️

Riveting. Arguably one of the top ten rappers of our time and now he has shown us the person behind the music and the lyrics. Could not put down.

The Biggest. The book naturally walks you through the Boss’ life and the meaning of the classics produced. A must read.

Amazing. I loved it, growing up I really enjoyed his music so when I came across this book I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. I read the sample & instantly needed the whole book. The breakdown on his life, his history, mentality & the musical history was so articulate that you feel like he’s sitting chopping it up with you. The personal tone & his timeline for things just show & prove that he really is a boss. Thoughtful, talented & a great narrator. Respect & love from NYC, easily one of the best books I’ve read so far.

Wow. This book makes one feel like they were present in the court room when Rick and Black had claimed victory in their case.this read makes me feel as if Rick crawled out his luxury automobile dazed confused and bare foot to find not only his lady in the bushes curled up but I as well. I feel like I to saw that weird colored smoke coming from behind my house. Excellent read‼️

Simply incredible. I’ve never read a novel of this length so fast. It was like the best song ever written. Yung Renzell. Truly the biggest 10/10

Good read. Good and interesting read. I think it has some timeline issues in the beginning chapters but everything else was great.

Read the book and loved it !. This book is one of my all time favorites. All the honesty and detail put in this book made me want to take my time and read it. Being an artist myself I read a lot of relatable passages and also living in Florida I could relate to so many situations this book touched on. I’ve been a Rick Ross fan since his first album and Hurricanes can definitely be added to his long list of accomplishments. This is a must read!

Great book. Everything I needed to know about the biggest boss!

3rd book. As a reader of the first book what a way to boss up the conversation, and introduce the reader into a new form of thinking that can be applied to everyday life, an any circumstances that may arise. The key values of the book can be a perfect introduction to greatness

Hurricanes. Hurricanes hurricanes are dangerousThey could be rough so you could find somewhere safe for the hurricane won’t kill you Sometimes hurricanes can find you hurricanes can happen in Mexico Hurricane can happen in New York Hurricanes can happen in Texas So you need to be safe in hurricanes👌✌🏻!

Great book. Ross give you a depiction of his life step by step while addressing situations in his life that normal people dont .

Good book. Very good book. I think he should make a movie.

Yes.. This book takes you on a journey with Rick Ross you didn’t know you need. He is honest, forthcoming, and genuine, while staying true to his authenticity and absolute commitment to his hustle. This book made me feel every emotion and I am grateful he shared this part of his story with us. Blessings.

Yeah, Rozay!. As someone who intends on working in a similar role, I loved Hurricanes! Ross does an excellent job of connecting his life experiences in with his creative works. Plus, if you know you know when it comes to the darker instances in the publishing. His instructions are so clear if you have your sense of direction ready!

Fire. Great read

From a Day One Fan.. Inserts *grunt....sweat!

Quite Enlightening. This book has brought me to a place in which Rick Ross’ music cannot. The depths of those Miami streets that he stomped on before growing into the mogul that he is. I see that the roots of his personality remains until this day. Millionaire or not, from the outside looking in, he’s the same.
