1. Rick Ross reflects on his visit to Elvis Presley's Graceland and reveals a 'legendary' bond
Rick Ross seems to share more in common with the legendary Elvis Presley than one might expect.
On Friday, November 8, the rapper took to Instagram Stories to share photos from his visit to Graceland, Presley’s iconic Memphis estate. Reflecting on the experience, Ross wrote, "I just went on a tour throughout the crib. Very enlightening. Elvis was a legend, an icon."
During his visit, Ross also had the chance to see Presley’s 1958 Convair 880 jet, which he purchased in 1975 and named after his daughter, Lisa Marie. Ross, who owns a Gulfstream G550, pointed out the similarities between their lifestyles, saying, "As we all could see, me and Elvis had a lot of things in common... His ranch is Graceland, my ranch is Promise Land."
The 48-year-old rapper continued to express admiration for Presley, praising his love of planes and his hustler mentality. "I love the planes. I love that he was a hustler. He was a man amongst the people," Ross added.
This isn’t the first time Ross has expressed his admiration for the "King of Rock and Roll." In 2014, he released a song titled "Elvis Presley Blvd" as a tribute to the music icon.
