Rick Ross Rolls Royce Car Accident Shooting BirthdayLarry Busacca, Getty Images

According to TMZ.com, after Rick Ross' recent involvement in a shooting and car accident, the rapper has opted to hire a 24 hour armed guard for protection.

This past Monday, on Rozay's birthday no less, the Maybach Music Mogul was shot at from a nearby car and crashed his car in attempt to escape.

Although he was unharmed in the incident, Ross isn't taking anymore chances and will now be accompanied by a guard packing heat around the clock.

He previously enlisted security details for big events or public appearances but will now be guarded day in and day out.

TMZ's sources close to Ross indicate that he's been threatened a lot recently but has brushed them off. He's paying attention now, though.

Whoever made the attempt should probably be watching their back right now too, Ross' latest record title was God Forgives I Don't ... ominous at best.

Assassination attempt? Negro please, you are no one of true importance. Assassination is way too strong a word to use with this fool, as that word is reserved for politicians, freedom fighters, and the like. This moronic bafoon is just a below average rapper. His absence would be of little importance except to those who give his horrible music credence. Someone tried to kill him. That's all.

All you people out there with the hate in your heart or mind, have never walked a foot in his life,,,,,I don't know him or of him, neither do I know you, but I would never hate on a person or a persons race for nothing but just to hate. If a person does something to you, deal with that person, not with all people that fall into that persons many groups.

Thank you intelligent comment considering what most of these raciest haters have to say. We already know how they feel about the president this is just another indication of that hate.
