Overview
- Rick Ross posted videos insulting podcast hosts Rory & Mal and took direct aim at Kareem “Biggs” Burke, making unverified claims about money and past cases.
- Hours later he posted a follow-up that softened his language toward Burke, saying Biggs “got somebody that really loves you” and leaving it at that.
- On their show, cohost Zip defended Rory & Mal and blasted Ross, referencing Ross’ past work as a correctional officer to push back on the insults.
- Mal reacted on social media with crying-laughing emojis, signaling the podcast’s decision to shrug off the flare-up rather than escalate it.
- Outlets passed along a rumor that Jay-Z privately urged Ross to back off, though no one has confirmed it, and coverage ties the episode to Ross’ ongoing friction with Drake and Biggs’ reputation as a respected Roc-A-Fella cofounder.
