Rick Ross is recuperating at home after a recent health scare landed him in the hospital for several days.
On Thursday, the rapper who lives in the Atlanta area part-time, posted a photo of himself on Instagram with the caption, "Ain’t nothing like home 🙏🏼. I love y’all."
The rapper/entrepreneur was admitted to a South Florida hospital last Friday after being found in distress in his Fort Lauderdale-area home. A 911 call indicated that Ross was breathing heavily and vomiting while going in and out of consciousness.
While Ross, 42,spent his formative years in Miami, he also maintains a footprint in Atlanta. He owns a 54,000-square-foot Fayetteville estate previously held by Evander Holyfield and oversees several franchise locations of Wingstop and Checkers throughout the South. In 2015, pledged to open a branch of his Maybach Music Group in Atlanta.
