Rapper Rick Ross’ beard is his most distinct features and has been with him since the start of his career.  The beard has gotten Ross lots of attention both from women who find his massive beard attractive, and men who want a Rick Ross like beard of their own.   Ross has even incorporated his infamous beard into his lyrics.  In the song, “America’s Most Wanted,” Ross shouts out his beard saying, “getting money every day that my beard grows,” letting listeners know that there isn’t a day that goes by where he isn’t making money.  In 2012, AllHipHop.com voted Ross’ beard number three on their list of  “The Top 10 Most Prolific Beard in Hip-Hop,” saying that Ross’ beard “is as impeccable as his movement, and probably is groomed on the hour for all the money he is bringing in. Nothing else is needed to be said about this one, because when you think of Hip-Hop beards, he’s got to be one of the first ones that come to mind.”

Although Ross beard seems to be a hit amongst hip-hoppers everywhere, many have started to speculate that there’s more than meets the eye when it comes to Ross’ badge of honor.  Some fans have even gone as far as saying that Ross is using the beard to conceal things that he doesn’t want the world to see.  While no one can know for sure, here are some things that may be hiding in Rick Ross’ beard.

Why does Rick Ross hide his face with glasses and a beard? Is his skin blotchy or something? Is he hiding food in his beard?
