(Video) Rick Ross Confirms Album Delay
Well, sort of. Either way, it’s pretty much guaranteed at this point. We reported yesterday that “God Forgives, I Don’t” was looking like it was going to get pushed back, as there hasn’t been much of any promo for it as of late, and there’s less than a month to go until it’s original release date of December 6th. Def Jam even took it down off their “coming soon” section and Amazon pulled it off their pre-order section as well. In an interview with MTV, Rozay discusses the reasons behind a now 2012 release.
