RICK ROSS NEW RELEASE SHELVED BECAUSE OF HEALTH CONCERN

Rick Ross’ new CD "God Forgives I Don't" was supposed to drop December 13th. Even after Rick got sick and had to cancel a string of concert dates, he still insisted his music would come out on time.

But last week Rick's release date was scrubbed from the Def Jam website and pre-order information was taken down from Amazon.

“I think we’re all aware of his recent health issue, and based on some of the minor setbacks with that, we weren’t able to confirm certain opportunities, because he physically wasn’t able to deal with certain things at the time,” representatives for Ross told Billboard.com. “We want this to be his biggest album — we know it’s going to be his biggest album — so we did not want to pressure him into releasing an album based on the sake of a date.”
