Rick Ross is reportedly making moves to halt the release of Remy Ma’s upcoming film, The Biggest Boss. The rap mogul has issued a cease-and-desist letter, according to reports, aiming to stop the film’s debut this summer. The central issue appears to be the film’s title and its alleged unauthorized use of his name.
Film Title Sparks Legal Action
TMZ reported that Rick Ross is claiming the film, slated to drop on the Remy Ma Network, uses his music and trade name without permission. The plot of The Biggest Boss centers on a correctional officer who adopts a drug dealer’s life story and turns it into a rap career. This narrative structure is notably similar to Rick Ross’s own rise to fame, as he previously worked as a correctional officer before becoming a successful rapper. This similarity is at the heart of the legal concern for Rick Ross.
Remy Ma Responds to Claims
A representative for Remy Ma told TMZ that the film was not created with the intent to offend Rick Ross. They stated that Remy was unaware of the concerns raised. The statement further explained that she maintains a positive relationship with Rick Ross spanning over two decades. Consequently, she would never intentionally do anything to harm his brand or cause offense.
Title Removed and Processes Reviewed
Upon learning of the issue, Remy Ma’s team immediately removed the title from their platform. The Remy Network is now working with partners to improve review processes. This step is intended to prevent similar situations from happening in the future. Meanwhile, 50 Cent shared his amusement about the situation on Twitter, posting laughing emojis.
