I'm gonna try to get it to you, and if I don't, I'ma get it to you ASAP." Recording and production įrequent collaborator Diddy mixed Mastermind and was the album's executive producer.

I wanted to make that clear for the ones that paid attention that that's most definitely my vibe. On June 10, 2013, during an interview with MTV News, he explained that Mastermind will have a soulful vibe, saying: "That's most definitely the feel and that's why I made sure I wanted to open at the top of the new year.
