"It was me and Jeezy running into each other," Ross says
of what prompted their reconciliation. "It was one of those moments when
his crew was on one side of the door and mine was on the other side of
the door. I don’t want to disclose that location yet. I wasn’t expecting
it, but when we saw each other, we clarified all the misunderstandings
and miscommunications. At the end of the day, I never had a problem with
him and it was vice versa. We never lost money together. Nobody ever
got hurt. It was just a lot of talk. We said, 'Let’s do it for the game.
The culture is bigger than us.'"
Jeezy and Ross collaborated on "War
Ready," a selection off Mastermind. The album includes a
cover art done by Mr. Brainwash, an artist who was featured in Banksy's
Exit Through The Gift Shop film.
"I’m a fan of art," Ross says of his work with Mr.
Brainwash. "That’s one of the homies. I forgot where we met. I go over
to his studio, smoke, let beats play sometimes. He has a huge studio. I
let Brainwash get on the mic one night. He was on the mic for three
hours, just saying different things. His whole slogan is 'Life is
beautiful,' so he was saying some powerful things. I love it."
Ross says he may release the material he's recorded with
Brainwash. "He wants to put it out," Ross says. "He has a vision and he
has a lot of powerful quotes. The same quotes he puts in his art. He
wouldn’t stop for three hours. My engineer said, 'I quit. I’m going to
stop.' Brainwash is one of them dudes that has ideas."
