ASK EBENGREGORY: The Rick Ross/EbenGregory Situation
Wednesday, May 6, 2009
In another episode of ASK EBENGREGORY, Ivanna from the Southside of Russia wants to know what’s the deal with Rick Ross name dropping EbenGregory on his new cd, Deeper Than Rap.


Ross clearly dissed eg……..”celery for eben gregory….im on my dinner”……..meaning….he has doe and eg doesnt……..hes eating good and eg is not……come on people!!!!!……either way eg is getting exposure!!!!
Ok so does any 1 really know what that line meant cos im from UK an we dont really speak the same language.
Celery for Eben Gregory doesn’t make sense. As a matter of fact there are literally dozens of lines on DTR like that. On one song he says he has 3 seeds, then 5 seconds later he says he has two kids. He says he never had a gun and badge and then immediately says “I’ll shovel sh*t, I’ll C.O.”
Dude just ain’t that lyrical. I like the CD, but Rick Ross ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed, obviously. When he dissed Trick Daddy it was so indirect it was like he dissed him from across the street.
Anyway, Jewelry Man – Luv the show!
BTW, how did you get home from Best Buy? Obviously, you rode in on Ross’s dick.
lol (that’s how you diss a nigga – clear and concise – non of this celery BS)
celery = green = money for Gben Gregory = not a diss you hate minded motha fuckas
swag i can see what your saying…i can buy that
I KNOWone thing “i love me some celery,it’s crunchy n sht but real talk I think ya boy ricky ross was just shouting out to E.G.
Maybe he’s using celery as slang for salary.
salary = money
celery = green
money = green
celery = salary
…I’m just saying.
Oh and LoL @ Bloo’s comment.
I’m a porch monkey but you can’t spell ignorant when u r using ignorant to describe anybody who doesn’tconnect celery and money….hmmn… nice try!
yes my name comes from DBZ how long did that take u to find out…it’s obivious. But trilla azz beard your named after haircut…a haircut?
I’m wondering how am i hating on you for joking on that typo you made? get a sense of humor. finally the uncle tom humor doesn’t quite fit a debate over the use of celery…lol hit ya brakes…calm down it will be alright…dude is the farrakhan of the use of the word celery in the modern hip hop era…smh
LMAO! @ TRILLA Azz BEARD…man I haven’t seen DBZ in a good while.
Man bump Officer Ricky. I will never support his ass.
I Eben, 1st off I like ya bruh, but you need to stop riding that man so hard. I got nothing against rick neither, but if that man dropping lines like that and even you don’t get it, I take it as you never met the dude. Which is pretty sad. Cause this could be a diss and you spent a bill on his ass. Hope you keep the receipt.
Freeza, you dumb ass porch monkey ass nigga. Stop hating all your life. Fake ass Dragon Ball Z name ass fool.
COMMON has called cash “CELERY” as well.
..”Celebrity status make em think I got Celery”.
Tired of these coon ass niggas on Eben’s site and hatin. Go Kill yourself, ASAP.
im new here… but ummm.. correct me if im wrong… dropping $137 at Best Buy is not really “Boss”. I drop 150$ there damn near everytime I go… its not hard to do. -Just sayin… do what you do playa.
LMAO who gives a fuck??? Ross aint talkin bout me I just gave my opinion… But any who…. Im getting to my celery so what the fuck is you telling me???
Eben doin his best Mr Chi-City impression? And celery for eben gregory + sausage riding by eg = eg on that bankroll
co sign freeza. sum ni66az just calculators dat dont got dey ajax down
cabbage and lettuce is used because you can peel the leaves like big bills from a bank roll. celery has no characteristics besides being green with money. you could be right about it being money but i don’t see the connect.
“I make that celery?”…i don’t know.
dumb! when somebody makes some new saying up the only dumb person in the room is the one who is positive they know what that man means. OH spell ignorant right when u r using it to put someone down. cause it’s dum too say dat sumwon iz ignant an spell it wrung. ole radish ass negro you need to make that parmesan and stop dandelion peoples lawns.
I agree with Trill Azz Bearded Brotha rappers call money all types of green vegetables these days…. By Rick Ross saying celery for Eben Gregory…He’s actually exposing Eben G. to people who haven’t heard of him….so when they hear the name they gonna be like who in the fuck is Eben G then go look him up and maybe become a fan, which will bring more money “celery” for Eben G…..it’s just that simple
Yall niggas is DUMB. CELERY is MONEY how Rick Ross is saying it. Damn, black people, ignant ass mutha phuckas. CELERY FOR EBEN GREGORY. That’s what he said. EBEN, put me on the Album. We can do a song, “I got that ICE JEWELRY”
Im sure, Eben connects. He can find out what Ross meant by it. But I wouldnt have bought 10 copies, it anit that serious. Rick Ross anit puttin no food on my table, so I anit supportin him that hard.
Na Brandi, he was talking about yours truly…
But I’m with Eben on that one, it’s hard to see where Ross was coming from with that line. Celery for Eben Gregory could mean…
1. Eben ain’t eatin on his level so don’t be comparin the two.
2. Celery could mean that Eben can have the scraps of what he’s getting, as celery is what’s often left on people’s plates after a meal.
3. He could’ve been just shoutin him out cause he’s a fan but tried to come up with a witty line and failed.
Either way, I would’ve just downloaded the album….
Illegally
Hmm im not sure what celery for eben gregroy was supposed to mean. it kinda sounds like a diss, but then again i dont know, anyone else with your name?
i thought he said sellng jewlery eben gergory im on my dinner
i thought he said celery too but he said selling jewlery real fast listen to it over again
oh yea follow me jewelery man cause i follow u
Geezus_jonez <<<twitter name
rules? man.. rules are made to be broken.. Trilla!
wtf is def jam paying you money on the side or what. Yeah its deeper than rap its political and thats some deep shit. even ebon gregory has to play by the rules.
Fuck Ross!!! Now read that bitch. and gregory u couldnt give those shits away. 10 cds u and def jam bought them 165,000 cds. sense when was that good.U not a boss if jada almost beat u in sales copper “trick daddy got some jewerly for that ass”
That’s a Maino move right there Eben Gregory, buying all the CD’s. You can be a fan of Ross I ain’t mad, but are you sure he said your name? People sound like they are talking about me too. It’s called paranoia. Celery for Eben Gregory lol. Celery is good for you it fights cancer cells. So it’s not a diss really is it? P.S fuck Best Buy and uh nice suite.
Coming from a cat who hands out direct “fuck you” bars to random entertainers….I would take what seems like an indirect hit as a compliment. Although he makes damn good music, he’ll never be in the lyrical hall of fame right? Nobody knows what the hell he meant…cocaine is a hell of a drug Charlie Murphy.
Tomatoes for the Boss you on some winner shit…
so what the fuck are you reading this aint “Blender” bitch
I spits that hot fiya like Dylan lol
well dawg u ain’t the only one wondering what the hell Ricky was talking about? celery i’m lost on that one. atleast he peeping ya shyt.
