He’s the self-identified “biggest boss that you’ve seen thus far.” And, apparently, he has a one-bedroom, two-bath private jet equipped with Starlink.<\/p>\n

During an episode of Complex’s “On Display,” released on Monday, rapper Rick Ross showed off his hangar (which he calls the “Eagle’s Nest”), including a Gulfstream G550.<\/p>\n

He said he integrated SpaceX’s Starlink into the private jet.<\/p>\n

“It’s unbelievable,” he said about the satellite internet services. “It’s just like you at the crib. I’m on a phone call before I take off, as we take off, the phone call don’t stop. FaceTime, whatever it is. Streaming, live, whatever it is.”<\/p>\n

Rick Ross shows off his INSANE $30 MILLION private jet after recently upgrading it with a $700K Starlink installation \ud83d\ude33\ud83d\udcb0\ud83d\udd25 pic.twitter.com\/606oQdXUKS<\/p>\n

Right now, Starlink is the crown jewel of SpaceX’s business.<\/p>\n

The company has deployed thousands of small satellites in low Earth orbit that beam high-speed internet to far-flung areas of the world \u2014 including airspace where jets are flying.<\/p>\n

It has 12 million subscribers, the company reported earlier this month during its first-ever earnings call. Several airlines have adopted the technology, including American Airlines, Southwest, Virgin Atlantic, Iberia, and Aer Lingus.<\/p>\n

Big-spending airline travelers, such as YouTuber MrBeast and angel investor Jason Calacanis, have said they would choose a less convenient flight path if the planes are equipped with Starlink tech. They aren’t alone.<\/p>\n

“In fact, we heard from one of our airline customers, shockingly, customers are flying shorter hop flights instead of direct, so that they could ensure that they’re on a Starlink-activated flight,” SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell said in her opening remarks on the August call. “They’d never seen this in the business before.”<\/p>\n

For Ross, his internet-linked plane is a centerpiece of his multimillion-dollar stable of transportation options in his hangar in Miami, which is also filled with custom Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and classics like the 1970s Chevy Impala.<\/p>\n

He said he dreamed about having such a fleet when he was a kid.<\/p>\n

“I always told myself, once I got the opportunity to, you know what I’m saying, double back, all the shit that I wanted, I was going to get it,” he told Complex.<\/p>\n

Representatives for Ross didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.<\/p>\n
