Rick Ross Slated Forportrayal Of Nigeria In Video 'hold Me Back' by topsyking: 12:51pm On Sep 20, 2012
The God Forgives, I Don’t star has been accused
by fans on twitter for portraying Nigeria in a
bad light after releasing the video shot in the
Nigerian slums online yesterday.
"Rick Ross is just trying to paint a negative
picture about Nigeria. We're not monkeys over
here," wrote an angry fan on the social
network.
While another wrote, "Damn!!! I also don't like
this Rick Ross video shot in Nigeria. Just too
negative."
A few fans came to the 'Big Meech' stars
defence.
One wrote, "Why do Africans always complain
when foreigners depict our countries? Rick
Ross shoots a video in Nigeria and everyone's
up in arms."
While another fan added "The Rick Ross 'Hold
Me Back' video portrays the true picture of
Nigeria. So far there has been lame comments
on it."
The video, which was originally shot in New
Orleans the first time, shows the rapper dressed
in his big chains and expensive watch visiting
the Lagos slums mobbed by crowds while he
raps.
'Hold Me Back' features news footage of events
happening in the country alongside women
filmed washing clothes and goats and
wandering the streets of the Nigerian slums.
Taken from the stars July released God
Forgives, I Don't, 'Hold Me Back' is the most
recent video released from the rapper.
Have a look at the video below to see if you
understand Rick Ross's message.
