See controversial reason why Rick Ross don't sign a female rapper.

On Tuesday, July 24, Rick Ross appeared on Power 105.1 FM’s Breakfast Club to talk about his upcoming show ‘Signed”. He makes a controversial statement about why he doesn’t sign female rappers. “You know, I never did it because I always thought, like, I would end up f–king the female rapper and f–king the business up,” he said.

Ross went on to explain that signing a female rapper would be a bad business move. “I’m so focused on my business. I gotta be honest with you,” the rapper and producer said. You know, she’s looking good. I’m spending so much money on her photo shoots. I gotta f**k her a couple times.”

It would be easy to pass off his comments as a joke, but the interview is just another unfortunate example of a mentality that views women as sexual objects before anything else and therefore ultimately hurts their careers, keeping women out of the male-dominated hip-hop world because they are never seen as equals. Bear in mind, this is the same man who in 2013 had to issue an apology after he released a song with a verse that seemed to condone date rape with the lyrics: “Put Molly all in the champagne/ She ain’t even know it/I took her home and I enjoyed that/ She ain’t even know it.”

And this is the same man who posed for the photo below, ahead of his Breakfast Club interview (Ross is “playfully” grasping Angela Yee, one of the three hosts of the morning show and the only one who challenged his sexist comments.

AGRICULTURE......Agriculture the prominent mechanism for Africa Development.

Approximately two-thirds of sub-Saharan Africa’s population is dependent on agriculture and the sector is responsible for generating one-third of the continent’s GDP. With its vast arable land, Africa has the potential to not only feed its citizens but to export food to other regions of the world. It is therefore astonishing that Africa must import food and rely on food aid to feed its people. The majority of poor subsistence farmers lack the income to buy seeds, fertilizers and tools and the resources to set up even the simplest irrigation system. Development assistance for agriculture could help provide the resources and the technical expertise to move smallholder farmers out of poverty, but development assistance for agriculture has declined dramatically in the last two-decades. Land-use policies and climate change have exacerbated the dire situation, as have the recent global food and financial crises. ONE urges development partners to implement the fol...
