Rick Ross released a banger yesterday, and hip-hop heads have been buzzing about one of the coolest collaborations of the year.
NEW MUSIC: Rick Ross Featuring Jay-Z & Dr. Dre “3Kings”
The king of Maybach Music Group called into Hot 97’s Funkmaster Flex show to reveal how he started working with Dr. Dre and how Jay-Z laid a verse down for “3Kings.”
Dr. Dre has been a fan of Rick Ross for some time now, and finally they got together at Ross’ Miami studio.
“When he walked into the studio for the first time, I was just so excited. We knocked out five songs that first night. I feel we made some incredible music.”
BEHIND THE SCENES VIDEO: Rick Ross “Hold Me Back”
After hearing the final product, Rick immediately thought of adding Jay-Z to the track.
“I already had jay on another record, but I reached out to big boy again and told him this is the one. So he made that happen for me. Shout out to Young Hov. It was just an idea I had in the back of my head and when I reached out to HOV he landed somewhere in a different country and made it happen for me.”
We’re glad West Coast rappers could come together with East Coast and Down South rappers all on one amazing track.
