This is not the first time that Rick Ross has been the center of controversy around female artists. In July 2017, he told The Breakfast Club that he hadn't signed any women to his Maybach Music Group record label because he'd eventually want to have sex with them. "You know, I never did it because I always thought, like, I would end up f***ing a female rapper and f***ing the business up," Ross said. "I'm so focused on my business. I just, I gotta be honest with you. You know, she looking good. I'm spending so much money on her photo shoots. I gotta f*** a couple times." Ew. The rapper later apologized for his comments in a Facebook post promoting his Signed show.
Clearly, Ross' failed Signed competition didn't help his case. In another viral clip, the "Diced Pineapples" crooner implied that he gave Just Brittany special treatment because he found her attractive: "I showed [Brittany] a little extra love ... Of course, I had a fun time with her. I was flirting with her, but at the end of the day, I wanted to see her win."
Just Brittany also spoke out on the controversial clip on a Jan. 24, 2021 Instagram post: "I'm happy this video is making its rounds and I want to say that colorism definitely plays a role in lighter skinned women, like myself, having more access in the industry. Kaiya is extremely talented and I wish darker women were seen more."
