Rick Ross, the celebrated rapper and entrepreneur, frequently splits his time between his luxurious residences in Atlanta and Miami. When asked where he prefers to unwind, he expressed a clear preference: “Swimming pools in Atlanta,” he stated in a recent interview, playfully adding, “The ocean, the beach in Miami.”
Ross’s Atlanta estate, famously dubbed The Promise Land, spans over 300 acres and is home to one of the largest private pools in the country, holding a staggering 350,000 gallons of water and necessitating a team of four for maintenance. “I use it. I swim every summer,” he noted, emphasizing that the pool is not just an aesthetic feature; he often incorporates it into his morning meditations. His fondness for water is strong, as he adds, “I love being in the water, you know. I’m (an) Aquarius. Shout out to all the Aquariuses.”
The expansive pool is also a source of revenue for Ross, having been rented out for various films, including the 2018 remake of “Superfly” and the sequel to “Coming to America.” Each year, he opens his mansion for public events, such as car shows and pool parties, believing that highlighting his achievements can inspire younger generations to realize their potential through hard work.
In addition to his thriving music career as the CEO of Maybach Music Group, Ross has successfully branched out into several business ventures, including ownership of multiple Wingstop locations, a partnership with Luc Belaire sparkling wine, and involvement with Rap Snacks. “What’s most beautiful about it is I believe I could help translate that story to the younger ones,” he stated, reflecting on his own journey and the challenges he faced growing up.
During a recent pool party at The Promise Land, fans in attendance experienced the welcoming atmosphere that Ross cultivates, further energized by his positive attitude. Attendee Brad Baker remarked on Ross’s uplifting presence and how he inspires attendees to succeed financially, saying, “He’s just positive, you know?”
The pool itself is a muse for Ross’s music, a source of inspiration that he jokingly refers to as “Wet Wet”—“the ghost writer” of his artistic works. With a unique blend of entertainment, luxury, and motivational spirit, Rick Ross continues to use his platform to encourage the next generation while enjoying the fruits of his labor in his stunning Southern estate.
With such a commitment to community engagement and inspiring younger individuals, Ross’s multifaceted career exemplifies the importance of resilience and passion in achieving one’s dreams.
