Hip-hop heavyweight Rick Ross has officially released his highly anticipated 12th studio album, Set In Stone, marking his first full-length project in five years and the beginning of a new chapter in his storied career. The 19-track album arrives via Maybach Music Group under an exclusive partnership with Gamma.

The release follows months of anticipation after Ross pushed the albumโ€™s original release date to further refine the project. Throughout the rollout, the Miami rap icon expressed confidence that Set In Stone could rank among the strongest albums of his career, pointing to its ambitious production, heavyweight collaborations, and signature luxury-rap aesthetic.

The album features an impressive lineup of guest appearances, including T.I., Don Toliver, French Montana, Max B, Rich the Kid, YFN Lucci, BigXthaPlug, The-Dream, and Leon Thomas. The guest list reflects Rossโ€™ ability to bridge generations of hip-hop while remaining true to the polished sound that has defined his catalog.

Leading the project is the standout single โ€œMinks in Miami,โ€ featuring French Montana and Max B, which helped launch the album campaign and quickly became a fan favorite. Other notable records include โ€œMahogany Casketsโ€ featuring T.I., โ€œCaviar Bumpsโ€ with Don Toliver, โ€œLiving Largeโ€ featuring BigXthaPlug, and โ€œRemarkable Hussleโ€ with Leon Thomas.

Set In Stone also coincides with the celebration of the 20th anniversary of Rossโ€™ landmark debut album, Port of Miami, making the release especially meaningful for both the rapper and his longtime supporters. The project serves as a reminder of Rossโ€™ longevity in an industry where few artists have remained consistently relevant for two decades.

Fans quickly flooded social media following the albumโ€™s release, praising Rossโ€™ trademark cinematic production, luxurious storytelling, and carefully curated collaborations. Many listeners have already described the project as a strong return for the Maybach Music Group founder, highlighting its blend of classic Rick Ross sounds with contemporary influences.

Over the course of his career, Rick Ross has established himself as one of hip-hopโ€™s most influential figures, earning multiple platinum albums, Grammy nominations, and countless chart-topping records. Beyond music, he has built a successful business empire spanning record labels, restaurants, real estate, and publishing, reinforcing his reputation as one of rapโ€™s most accomplished entrepreneurs.

With Set In Stone now available worldwide, Rick Ross once again reminds listeners why he remains one of hip-hopโ€™s defining voices. Combining star-studded collaborations, polished production, and the larger-than-life storytelling that has become his trademark, the album positions Ross for another successful chapter in a career that continues to evolve more than 20 years after his breakthrough.
