Video: Rick Ross Says Wale Has Kanye West Potential

Rozay makes a bold statement.

Rick Ross, who is on a recording contract signing frenzy, sat down with Sway from MTV News where he pretty much compared Wale to Kanye West. "After spending months of my summer working with Kanye, I learned and seen so many different visions and ideas come to light. I was there for 'Flashing Lights,' when it was actually titled another title that me and Kanye went back and forth about. And when I think about Wale, I think about Kanye," said Rozay about Maybach Music's first signee. "And the kind of rhymes Wale has been laying down the last few months, since we been in the studio, I'm pretty sure there's gonna be a lot of similarities as far as the pictures that he paints," the Bawse continued. "Of course, Kanye is one of the greats of our time but I see that same potential in Wale." Last week, Rick Ross tweeted the signing of R&B/soul singer Teedra Moses to his Maybach Music Group empire. We're curious what Rozay's next big move will be.
