Legendary pro wrestling star Ric Flair recently appeared in a hip-hop video by 21 Savage called “Ric Flair Drip.” The song features the young artist called Offset, and the well-known record producer Metro Boomin, who’s currently one of the most popular producers in the world. The song is about living large and Ric Flair is one of the best examples of it. You can see him in the video posing with the young rappers, trying out different clothes, and evidently enjoying his life. In the last third of the song, Ric also has his own rapping solo. The video ends with a close-up of his wrestling robe revealing his famous nickname — Nature Boy. Take a look at the video below.
In a recent interview for “Revolt,” Flair said that he enjoyed making the video and mentioned his plans to appear in more of them in the future. He had nothing but praise for the Offset with whom he spent a day shooting this video. It seems that the they both enjoy the finer things in life so they were able to establish a connection quickly. He also stated that he was grateful for the fact that many hip hop stars look up to him, singling out the great Snoop Dogg as one of them. Flair also expressed a desire to appear in a video with Cardi B next.
Ric Flair’s Feuds
Besides his great wrestling career, Ric Flair is also known for his controversial lifestyles and feuds that went on outside of the ring. He feuded with Bret Hart, whom many believe is one of the greatest wrestlers in the history of pro wrestling; he feuded with the extremely talented performer Mick Foley who created legendary onstage personas like Cactus Jack and Mankind. Besides these two, Flair also had conflicts with the mighty Hulk Hogan and terrifying Bruno Sammartino, but they managed to set aside their differences later on and become friends.
