While Rozay did talk details about his newest release, he also dropped some gems about his personal life you might not expect. For starters, he cops to being an avid collector of action figures and video games, loves the Netflix drug drama Narcos, and even reveals the "weirdest" thing he’s read online about himself. Interestingly, it had to do with Mercer.
He tells the mag, “You see a lot on the Internet so if it's not going to directly affect my business partners [or me], I hardly reach out to correct someone. Instead, my music is used to clarify any bulls---. But I actually woke up recently and read a blog that said me and Lira separated and it involved another rapper. Of course, that was totally fabricated. There was nothing she did to me and vice versa. I got nothing but love and respect for Lira.”

As for the best thing he says about being Rick Ross? “The positive influence that I bring, he says. “It's the entrepreneurial spirit and the underdog finally seeing the day of light. That's one of my biggest assets."
