It's no secret that there's been tension between Miami rappers Trick Daddy and Rick Ross for months, starting with rumors that Trick leaked the widely circulated photos of a pre-rap Rick Ross.

In an interview on Angela Yee's Shade 45 satellite radio show Wednesday morning (May 6), Trick denied those accusations, and later said that -- without him -- there would be no Rick Ross.

"The sad part about this is when the first corrections officer picture came out, about a week later I saw an interview, the interviewer said, 'So Rick Ross, how do you feel about Trick Daddy calling you a prison guard?' Time out," the rapper explained. "Ain't no way you went for that dumb ass sh** right there. The sad part is that that interview is three years old. You do the math?

"I just don't understand it, I was a big Ross fan and if you check all my interviews, you check the web, radio, I never sneak dissed him," Trick continued. "I always tell people I like Ross as an artist, even when he was Teflon Don. Whatever he wanted to be, I supported him. For him to try and assassinate my character?"

If you stay locked to the internet, or keep up with new Rick Ross music, you may have heard his record "Valley of Death," in which he says Trick Daddy has AIDS, not Lupus as he recently revealed.

"Caught a little case, buddy had a little cheddar," Ross raps on the diss." "Pled out to 15, poured his life in a letter / Very first line he called Trick Daddy stupid / Said he had AIDS, telling people that it's lupus / Not the one just to jump to conclusions / I'm getting money, small talk can be a nuisance."

Despite the diss, Trick has remained quiet, opting not to fire back at the Carol City rapper. But in the radio interview, he addressed the situation, calling Ross "disrespectful".

"I've been arrested and convicted of more crimes than he been pulled over and written a ticket for. When did I have time to be a pu***?" Trick asked. "What do you gotta use me as an example? I don't give a f*** who told you what. Don't mention my name in your raps. That's disrespectful.

"I'mma real Miami n****. I was born and raised in Miami. I'm not moving to no f***in' where. I'm not going nowhere. My studio was in Carol City for three years -- that whole three years that player hatin' sh** was going on," he continued.

Through the shots and all, Trick has taken the high road, but he now says that he's going by a new set of rules -- ass whoppings. So, respect him or suffer the consequences.

"The problem is police, snitches, n****s use 911. Your kids use 911 against you," Trick explained to Angela Yee. "Like I said, I'd like to apologize for not raising my son properly, but I got new rules. I'm going back to the old ass whopping days. I'm whopping all my kids' asses. Whoever it is, fake ass cartel, whoever you wanna send. I'mma have to start beating my kids' ass for disobeying me. Ass whoppings worked for me back in the days. You gonna have to start respecting us."
