Huffington Post-
Rick Ross has canceled shows in North Carolina after continued gang threats, Billboard reports. The rapper and head of the Maybach Music Group was the target of YouTube videos posted by the Gangster Disciples, which describe themselves as "Maybach killers" and warned Ross to reconsider his plan to perform in the state.
Ross simply blamed the cancelation on "promoters":

The Gangster Disciples originated in the South Side of Chicago. Ross mentions Larry Hoover, the gang's imprisoned leader, in the song "Blowing Money Fast." "I think I'm Big Meech, Larry Hoover, whipping work, hallelujah, one nation under God, real n----s getting money from the f--king start," he raps.
Ross also released a mixtape titled "Black Bar Mitzvah." The album art features Ross' face in the middle of the Star of David. The Gangster Disciples also use a six-pointed star as their logo.
NEW YORK (TheWrap.com)-
Various sects of the Gangster Disciples (GDs), a gang founded on the South Side of Chicago, appear in videos on YouTube threatening Ross and asking him for money. A nearly 10-minute video published recently featuring members of the North Carolina crew is titled "Rick Ross In Trouble with the GD's North Carolina."
They claim to have already given Ross a pass "for using our honorable chairman's name in a disorderly fashion - a dishonest fashion." That courtesy is over, and they know where Ross will be, mentioning Greensboro and Charlotte. They then say when they catch him in his Maybach his "time is through" and that Ross should know his penalty.
Ross, a solo artist, is the founder of Maybach Music Group, a record label that release albums through Warner Bros Records. He was set to perform with fellow Maybach artists Wale, Meek Mill and Machine Gun Kelly in Greensboro on Friday and Charlotte on Saturday.
