DJ Khaled Reveals Conversation With Rick Ross After Seizure

"I just told him, 'Man, I love you.'"

Yesterday the entire hip-hop world was on Rick Ross health watch, nervously refreshing their Twitter timelines for news on the rapper's condition after he suffered two seizures. So you can only imagine how his close friends felt. The Miami rapper's long-time friend and collaborator DJ Khaled revealed that he first heard the bad news online—and then had an emotional conversation with Ross after he recovered from his first seizure.
"I got the news like everyone else did," Khaled told VIBE. "But when I talked to him I didn't ask him what happened. I didn't ask him about specifics... I just told him, 'Man, I love you. Are you okay?' And Ross was like, 'Man, you trippin... I'm good. He was like we got to get this album done—MMG, Powercircle, we the best, let's go!'"

Khaled said that the Bawse "is doing great"—although this was before Ross suffered his second seizure of the day.
