If you haven't yet caught this past Friday's episode of Magic City, we're about to give you the best advice you'll receive all day: Find a way to watch it immediately, because Rick Ross was in it, and it was absolutely hilarious. 

In the episode, Ross portrayed a character named "Butterball," who was a numbers runner that headed the largest bolita house in Miami, and occasionally brought up Leviticus. 

Until you can find means to watch the episode, though, check out this behind-the-scenes clip featuring creator Mitch Glazer explaining the inspiration behind Butterball—apparently, it's based on Ross, who was a huge fan of the show prior to guest-starring—along with a few clips from his television debut.

Bonus: BET has an uncut version of one of Ross' scenes, which you can check out below.
