Freeway Ricky Ross Reflects on Sparing Someone's Life over Drug Deal Gone Bad (Part 2)

Watch Part 1: goo.gl/8NTV1B
---------------------
In this clip, Freeway Rick Ross credits his critical thinking as to why he never resorted to murder to survive in the streets. Interestingly enough, he likens that type of discipline as to what's found in the sport of tennis, a recreation that Freeway Rick Ross was involved in during his youth. The ability to make decisions quickly is what he believes separated him from his peers, allowing him to make smart choices in times of adversity. In one incident, he recalls a drug deal gone bad when his crew was sold $70 thousand dollars worth of cake mix. Despite the loss, Freeway Rick Ross convinced his crew not to kill a man that was involved, keeping in mind both the risk and reward of that decision. Later on, he discusses his strained relationship with his father, though he doesn't attribute his absence to his desire to get into the drug game. Conversely, however, Freeway Rick Ross tries to stay as much involved in his 8 children and 14 grandchildren's lives as much as they let him, conceding that one daughter wants very little contact with him.

Vlad : Tell me about the times you murdered. 🔪 Rick Ross : I like tennis 🎾

As if he would say Ohhh yes let me tell you the time I killed lmao. Vlad is slowwwwwwww

[@PastorBlessed1]

Police ass Vlad

[@juicyjfan]

Theirs no statue of limitations on murder, he's only going to talk about the shit he served time for

[@BoxingProfits]

Ain’t enough of this OG wisdom being shared

[@Kickgang]

BoxingProfits believe it 🖤🤞🏿

[@EliteOnTheBeat]

Thats whats wrong with these little youngsta's now. Just look at Teshia 69. Absolutely no guidance let alone wisdom being shared with the youngsta's now. Thats why these youngsta's have no respect no more. and theres no more rules. 100

Megalodon Unlocked we all make mistakes bro! Did I say perfect?

[@BoxingProfits]

Megalodon Unlocked and yes- wisdom!! Did u listen to the entire video or did u just come to the comment section to slang negativity. CLEARLY he paid his debt to society and he ain’t broke fool! He got paid for this interview dude

[@Tax_Mny]

Vlad think he's really going to tell him if he murdered someone? SMH. Certain things IDK why Vlad even ask.

[@jeffreybratton6186]

Lol it's funny though he tries to Bobby shmurda alot of people,for people that dont know what I mean he tries to get them to tell on them selves

[@CamdenMcInnis]

Lol for real

[@tylerbyrne807]

[@ValidPointsMade]

Bc Vlad really isn't a good interviewer.

[@Amanueel]

And this guy actually believes he's the best interviewer in the game. I mean sure his interviews are interested but they way he ask these questions sometimes is questionable. He'd be a great informer.

U right would be great

thats what i said, there should be a narcos california as well as a miami version. wouldn't be right. american drug dealers played the most important role in the drug war if u really look at it. black and white.

[@BakemonoShiz]

I had the honor of interviewing Freeway Ricky once. Look, there's just not enough time to fully mine the gems and jewels of wisdom this man has...A really cool cat and a font of real-world experience and just mad down to earth - isn't Hollywood, and is no way a diva. Though, I will say, the quickest way to turn him off is to focus solely on the negative aspects of his life. He's not out to glorify what he was or what he did, just speak his truth. I'd love to interview him again one day.

[@adrianpate4694]

You fucked up lol

[@14frankawesome]

[@allanhouston22]

85jmurk why does it need to be told? to glorify this killer of his own people? he already had millions by these killings, you think he should get more for creating semi real stories?

This is a good example as to why you shouldn’t have kids if you can’t provide for them. And make sure that you have kids with someone who can also provide. Not having a father is detrimental to a child.....especially a boy.
