"Hustlin' " is the first single from Miami rapper Rick Ross's debut album Port of Miami, composed by The Runners and himself. In the lyrics of the song, Rick Ross refers to the cocaine traffic network the real Rick Ross had built up, stating: "I'm into distribution, I'm like Atlantic/I got them motherfuckers flyin' across the Atlantic". The song also contains references to Manuel Noriega, former Panamanian Militant General, Pablo Escobar, Colombian narcotics trafficker and Kenneth "Boobie" Williams, Miami-area drug runner. To emphasize that he is talking about Noriega the dictator and not Noreaga, the Queens-based rapper, Ross adds "the REAL Noriega", who he claims owes him "a hundred favors."
