Rick Ross

"Thug Cry" (ft. Lil Wayne) (video)

Ever wonder what makes a "Thug Cry?" Well, rap mogul Rick Ross is helping us out by delivering a new video for his Mastermind track of the same name.

Starring Wood Harris (The Wire), the cinematic clip first begins with a convict trying to make a connection over the phone as he readies himself to be released back into the world. Through his eyes, and surrounded by black bottle verses from Rozay and Lil Wayne, we experience flashbacks to a violent liquor store robbery gone wrong up until a redemptive and emotional reunion with friends and fam.

You can see the ultimately feel-good story down below.

No promises, but you may be able to see Ross play the song onstage at one of his summer dates. The schedule hits up Edmonton and Toronto in June, and you can find out the venue and date specifics for the shows here.
