2012 nappyafro Awards: Mixtapes of the Year

Rich Forever

Rick Ross – Rich Forever

Released: January 6, 2012

Rick Ross cannot be stopped. Every year he manages to keep himself and his crew in the ‘best’ and ‘favorite’ categories. 2012 was no different as Rozay started the year off on fire with Rich Forever. He may be more style over substance, but it’s hard to imagine anyone else with as much swag as Ricky. While God Forgives, I Don’t wasn’t the classic we had hoped for, it didn’t need to be since Rich Forever was arguably the hottest tape in the hood this year. – GQ Blu
