Rick Ross Leaves Drama Behind On BET Hip Hop Awards Stage

Rozay performs 'Hold Me Back' and 'Ice Cold' with Omarion following backstage scuffle with Young Jeezy.

Rick Ross may have made headlines for his backstage drama at the 2012 BET Hip Hop Awards, but none of that affected his performance during the show.

The Maybach Music boss had some extra fire in his gut when he rumbled shirtless onto the stage, rocking his rambunctious [article id="1690151"]God Forgives, I Don't[/article] single "Hold Me Back." Flanked by Gunplay and other members of his Maybach Music squad, Rozay stomped through the track's first verse and a cleaned-up hook, spitting, "These haters can't hold me back," instead of the dirty version.

Rozay wasn't all street, however. For his second song, Ross was draped in a mink coat and brought out former B2K frontman Omarion for "Ice Cold." "She fell in love with a dope boy/ Black diamonds on the neck of that dope boy," Ricky spit as Omarion popped and locked around him wearing an all-white getup with fireworks cascading in the background.

What the television cameras didn't catch was the drama backstage where Ross tangled with Young Jeezy. Rozay addressed the situation on "Gone to the Moon," a track from his [article id="1695180"]The Black Bar Mitzvah[/article] mixtape, which he dropped Monday. "I be at these awards, I still be living by rules/ So when I run into dudes, you know we thumpin' and move/ The parking lot, go to poppin', N---as say when they floppin'/ Let me get back to my bitches, 'cause you bitch n---as ain't nothing," he spit, referencing the incident without saying any names.
