There are many things that can be said about Rick Ross. The obvious being he heads Maybach Music and just dropped Self Made, he's on our June/July cover and his grunts are iconic. But as unpronounced as his exposed belly and ability to paint coke tales is his style, which has evolved slowly since stepping on the scene in 2006. Also, his affinity for and collection of vintage sunglasses has not gone unnoticed either. He's seen constantly sporting some awesome Persol, Cazal and Alpina M1 sunglasses.

Ricky Rozay has had some style misses along the way, i.e. the MCM and LV controversy but rocked some dope looks so far. Check out our collection of some of the big man's most stylish looks in this Style History of Rick Ross! "UGHN!"
