“Diddy is one of the greatest producers of all time and someone I respect,” Ross says in a press release. “He has a proven track record of not only creating hit records but also classic albums. It just made sense for me to have him be a part of this process.”

“It’s a team effort,” Diddy says in a press release. “Ross, [DJ] Khaled, Gucci Pucci and I are like a family. The goal for Mastermind was to create a classic album. Once we put all our superpowers together we knew there was nothing stopping us from accomplishing our goal.”
Mastermind is Ross’ follow-up to God Forgives, I Don’t, a project that was released in 2012. God Forgives, I Don’t earned a 4 out of 5 X rating on HipHopDXat the time of its release.
