With DJ Khaled on production and Def Jam’s know-how on its side, we’d say Rick Ross’ forthcoming album ‘Mastermind’ is on course to achieve wild and wonderful things once it drops next year.

Keen to address the matter, the ‘Hold On, We’re Going Home’ rapper readily offered his response to the internet jibes thrown his way in the latest issue of VIBE magazine, which he also covers.

The 27-year-old also waxed honest on his friendly rivalry with Kanye West, his goals, desire to be a dad and more.
