This weekend, Sept. 20th-22nd, Rick Ross and Maybach Music Group are invading Miami for the 1st Annual MMG Weekend. Rozay and MMG are heading to the 305 to celebrate the release of Self Made 3, which hits stores this week.
For those of you who can afford to party with MMG in Southern Florida, or are pretending you can, we present a complete guide to doing it big this weekend. The rest of you can read this from cubicles and dorm rooms and vicarously turn up.

Leave The Shirt at Home
We're pretty sure Rick Ross doesn't wear shirts more often then he does, so feel free to follow suit. Bonus: this opens up space in your suitcase for all the bottles you want to bring.
Practice Rick Ross Grunts
Everyone drops it low in front of a full length mirror to make sure they're ready for the club (we see you dudes twerking it up)—now it's time to get your grunt on. You could run into the MMG Team at any point during the weekend and when your grunt impresses Ricky Rozay you will be inducted into the team and whisked away to a life of private planes, consoling Drake, and popping bottles. Unh.
Day Naps
You will be up all night or you're doing it wrong. Therefore napping is a must. You can also avoid hungover mornings this way because once you wake up it will be time to turn up again.
Leave Room for Wingstop
Something needs to soak up all that champagne in your stomach. Wingstop is one of the best Miami food spots to satisfy your hunger and prepare your body for a night of turning up.
Stay Hydrated
The thirst is real. Literally. This weekend in Miami is going to be in the high 80’s. Staying hydrated is a must if you want to survive. But try to avoid thirst in the other sense too; that's never cute.
Your Bank Account Is Irrelevant
Yes, this is exactly what your parents taught you never to do, but there are moments in life where you need to ball out. Ignore those calls from bank tellers and text alerts from your checking account. With clubbing, eating, shopping and general merriment ain't nobody got time for a budget. Just remember debt doesn't go on vacation.
Don't Pack Last Minute
Grab your suitcase, duffel bag, trash bag, or whatever storage apparatus you have on hand and start packing now. The rush job you do right before you grab the cab to the airport is a sure way to forget something essential. You don't want to be the one at the pool party without a bathing suit...or maybe you do.
Confetti Showers at LIV
MMG weekend wraps at LIV (4441 Collins Ave.) on Sunday with Ross and the MMG Team. We can only imagine how live it will be whenever a beat drops or the famous Ross grunt blasts over the speakers. Prepare for confetti to rain over the crowd and one the hypest nights of your life.
Ignore Trinidad James
It seems like every one with a record deal was popping molly and sweating this past year, but don't fall victim to the peer pressure. The party drug was involved in the death of two festivalgoers at the New York music festival Electric Zoo in early September. This weekend promises to be incredible, but not enough to make it your last. Sip a lil something, maybe even smoke a lil something, but be smart and stay safe. The only thing some of you may want to focus on popping is a breath mint.
Make Sure To Bring Your Heaters
Just because Miami is blazing doesn't mean anyone wants to see your toes. Especially with the MMG Weekend Dunkxchange on Sunday from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., where the hottest sneakers and sneakerheads including Stalley and Rockie Fresh will gather over limited releases and flashy kicks. Dudes rocking flip flops will be judged.
