Over the last fifteen years, Rick Ross has built an spacious property in Fayetteville, Georgia, which features farm animals and hosting an annual car show. Currently, the Maybach Music mogul aims to level up and assume a leadership role within his community.

On May 16th, Rick Ross went on his Instagram stories to reveal his upcoming plans. “I love Fayetteville so much. Next year, I’m running for mayor,” Ross stated. “That’s right. The boss Rick Ross is running for mayor of Fayetteville. I want to know how many votes did it actually take to vote in the mayor of Fayetteville. I need to know that ’cause we gon’ become that. We gon’ make that happen, and we gonna have a good time.”

Following the rejection of Rick Ross' permit application to host his annual car show at his Promise Land estate on June 3, the CEO is now announcing his candidacy for a local government position. WSB-TV reported that Ross' neighbors expressed concerns about the traffic caused by last year's car show, leading them to approach the Fayette County Board of Commissioners and gather signatures on petitions calling for the cancellation of the event.

The upcoming mayoral election in Fayetteville is scheduled for November 7, 2023.

Ross posted on his Instagram, announcing that the show is back in business with the caption stating, “SEE YOU JUNE 3RD!” I believe this is a great opportunity for the community to come together and enjoy a wonderful time at the show. He also posted another post earlier today previewing the event. Check it out below.
