Rick Ross meets and greets fans at Wing Stop on May 26, 2014 in Deerfield Beach, Florida.
Rozay's bringing his favorite burgers and wings on tour.

Rick Ross doesn't call himself the biggest boss for no reason. While he's delivered some great albums and mixtapes over the years, the rapper has also used his status in the rap game to kick off his entrepreneurial skills. The rapper built his MMG brand to be a powerhouse in the rap game and took his business skills to acquire several Wingstop locations in Miami and later on, Checkers . Now it's looking like he'll be taking his franchises to another level on his upcoming tour.

Maybach Music Group announced that Rick Ross will be going on his first official international "Checkers Vs. Wingstop" tour. The tour kicks off today in Milan, Italy and will hit up various cities overseas. The rapper will also be hitting Belgium, Abu Dhabi, the UK, Spain, France, Austria and Switzerland. Over the course of the next few weeks, Rozay will be bringing a unique spin to his performances. It's definitely something you don't want to miss and it's unfortunate he hasn't pulled this off in North America yet. Hopefully at some point he will.

Rick Ross bringing his restaurant ventures overseas seems to be his latest approach in promoting them. Most recently, Rick Ross and DJ Khaled pulled up to the Checkers in Miami Gardens, FL, not far from where Rick Ross grew up from. While Rick Ross has still been making music, it seems his business ventures have been his main focus as of recent times.

He's pretty much used every public appearance he's made as a way of promoting the succulent lemon pepper wings he raps about. Even at Gucci Mane's wedding, he's seen with a Wingstop cup in the photos. He also hit American Eagle's 40th anniversary birthday bash in October where he reportedly started passing out wings to the crowd and apparently even started hand-feeding models Jordyn Woods and Iskra Lawrence wings while on stage.
