(AllHipHop News) Fans of Miami rapper Rick Ross were treated to a glimpse of his upcoming album Teflon Don tonight (January 21), as the debut single "Mafia Music II" was leaked to the Internet.

The new track features Ross rhyming over and beat produced by The Olympiks and features Chrisette Michele.

Teflon Don is Rick Ross's follow-up album to his 2008 release Deeper Than Rap.

"And those that are from Miami that know that was Ross’ original rap name, Teflon Don. Trust me, we are making some crazy music man. We gonna make them anthems that have the club going crazy,” producer DJ Khaled stated.

Deeper Than Rap sold 150,000 copies upon it's release in April of 2009 and debuted at number one on Billboard's Top 200 charts.

The album has moved over 350,00 copies to date and produced the hit single “Magnificent” featuring R&B crooner John Legend, which peaked at #5 on Billboard's Hot Rap Tracks chart.

At the end of the song, Rick Ross thanks a number of criminals, including Meyer Lansky, Gambino heads Paul Castellano, Carlo Gambino and John Gotti, as well as Al Capone, Bumpy Johnson, Crips founder Tookie Williams and Bloods founder T. Rodgers.

Teflon Don is due in stores in 2010.
