In 2006, Rick Ross (real name William Leonard Roberts II) introduced himself to the world with his debut hit, “Everyday I’m Hustlin’.” The 44-year-old rapper, who is currently up for a Grammy Award, informed us two years later that he was the “biggest boss” we had seen so far. Ross has demonstrated over the previous fifteen years that he is a man who works hard both on and off the track.

The seasoned rapper has always considered ownership and long-term planning, having founded his own record label, Maybach Music Group, and owned 24 Wingstop locations across the South. He’s also branching out and going into the healthcare sector, all the while continuing to produce hits that reach the top of the charts and even dropping hints about a collaborative album with fellow Canadian rapper Drake.

After experiencing health scares, Ross embarked on a newfound adventure towards health and wellbeing. It was the ideal match when Detroit native and healthcare entrepreneur Tommy Duncan was introduced to Ross by former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed. They discovered they had a lot in common, but their early health struggles were the one that really stuck out. Then, Ross invested $1 million in Duncan’s firm, Jetdoc, a virtual urgent care service for mobile devices designed to give low-cost coverage to those without access to healthcare, particularly those living in underprivileged Black and Brown neighborhoods.
