During this same weekend she stopped by Rick Ross’ first car show that took place at his 45,000 square foot home in Atlanta sitting on 235 acres. She described the event as more than a show but a celebration which given that Ross went to such strides to bring back the car culture in hip hop is quite commendable. She gave thanks to Safaree on Instagram saying, “thanks for the flowers you gave me when you seen who you remembered as “Mysterious from Making The Band 2”, who now grew into “Misty Blanco The Blaquanese Rockstar.” And regarding Ross, she and the Hustlin’ rapper have the 2018 song Winning Circle together.
This came after performing at Portsmouth, Virginia’s inaugural 420ish Festival alongside Movado, Mad Lion, Spice, etc. The performance was a stop on her Blaque Okane Rockfest 8 state tour and reality show currently being taped for Viacom now available on The Misty TV channel on Roku.
