Maybach Music Group leader Rick Ross reportedly has some legal trouble on his head this week thanks to a shot of longtime friend Jay Z in his “Movin’ Bass” music video.

According to reports, a photographer has sued Ricky Rozay over the usage of Jay’s image in his visual.

Rick just got sued by a photog named Armen Djerrahian, and in the docs he says he took a pretty famous photo of ‘Hova back in 2003. The image shows Jay throwing up the roc — the popular hand gesture representing his label … Roc-A-Fella Records. Djerrahian says the shot popped up in Ricky Rozay’s new music video for his song, “Movin’ Bass” .. which features Jay Z. Djerrahian’s suing for all the profits they made off using the Jay Z image, and a court order to block them from further use. (TMZ)

Recently, Ross proclaimed he was a bigger “boss” than rap’s elite.

“I’m even a bigger threat than them. Because all the genius moves they’ve been able to pull off I’ve been able to watch and study from the sideline. I got to see some of these dudes make the biggest electronics deals, the biggest lifestyle deals, the clothing brands, whatever it may be, I got to see that before it was actually my time and I got to prepare and do what bosses do. Plot, big time. Remain war ready. And I think right now we in a position where in two or three years there won’t even be a doubt who the powerhouse is in this game.” (XXL Mag)

Ross also gave his take on winding down and cashing-in on retirement.

“Long as I’m havin’ fun. Long as the energy remains where it is, man, Ricky Rozay The Bawse gonna shine like the moon itself,” Ross said referring to any possible retirement plans. (XXL Mag)

The “Bawse” recently said MMG protégé Wale would be executive producing an upcoming Self Made, Vol. 4 album.

“We really ain’t get into ‘Self Made 4’ yet. Wale’s executive producing ‘Self Made 4,’ so you know he’s going to point the gun and I’m going to squeeze the trigger.” (Revolt TV)
