Rick Ross made a pointed statement during his Complex Verzuz battle against French Montana on Thursday, May 7, 2026. While preparing to play his luxury rap classic “Aston Martin Music,” the Maybach Music founder instructed his DJ to mute his former collaborator.
“I wanna do ‘Aston Martin Music,’ minus Drake’s vocals. No Drake vocals,” Ross declared to the live audience at Apple Music Studios. Addressing the crowd’s reaction, he added, “If you wanna sing that, I’ma let you sing that.”
