Rick Ross the ex C.O is taking every precaution to ensure his safety after a drive-by shooting in Fort Lauderdale left him uninjured, but shaken up.

As we previously reported, the Miami rapper was targeted by an unknown gunman or gunmen as he was driving Monday morning with his girlfriend. Dozens of shots were reportedly fired at Ross' Rolls Royce as it was traveling eastbound on Las Olas.

Ross crashed the Rolls into a building trying to escape the gunfire.

TMZ is reporting that the MMG boss has now hired a team of armed security to watch his back 24 hours a day 365 days a year plus holidays without extra pay. The rapper has used a security detail in the past at various public functions, but now he's taken steps to make sure an incident like the one on Monday doesn't happen again by having bodyguards by his side at all times even when in the bathroom or bathtub.
