Creation of "HUSTLIN" By Rick Ross w/ The Runners | BackTrak
In this episode of BackTrak, Mayne of The Runners cracks open the vault and rebuilds the beat that lit a fire under Rick Ross’ career: Hustlin’. From the cinematic horn stabs to the heavyweight drums, he takes us inside the moment this anthem was born—and how it turned a local Miami record into a national street sermon. Industry bidding wars, studio myths, and one of the coldest hooks in rap history. This is the story of a beat that wouldn’t wait.
