(Radio.com) Rick Ross was the latest guest on Play.It's Rap Radar podcast. Hosts Elliott Wilson and Brian "B-Dot" Miller spoke to the Bawse about his upcoming album, Black Market, due out in December. They also discussed his free mix tape from last month, Black Dollar, and the song "Foreclosures." That track is about hip-hop artists who lose their money. In it, Ross spits, "Ever seen a rich n-a go broke?/They putting liens on a n-a things" and later "To the culture itself, these are powerful lessons."

He spoke on that song in the interview, saying, "You watch certain things play out around you and unfold. You watch other artists or labels or whatever it is. Some of these can be people that you looked up to. We watched the demise of Suge Knight. I remember being a younger dude and people talking about the value of Death Row Records, $300 million net worth," and in fact, he name drops Death Row in the song.

"That was something that I embraced as part of the culture as a fan. Look what we can create and look what we can build. And then you watch other artists that deserve the world and they end up in the position with almost next to [nothing]" Read more and listen to the full interview
