Freeway Ricky Ross, don't stress about all the people who have done you wrong, bro. If good things have happened, that means even better things are coming. Stay up. Thanks for the story; thanks for going through it and standing up like a man at the end and taking care of your kids and family. Man, that's what it's all about
Hes living evidence that proves CIA was selling cocaine to Americans. Additionally, the man's story is incredibly amazing. Certainly that on its own is guest-worthy.
Seems like the rapper Rick Ross deserves his fame more than this one. Dude got his shit handed to him by the CIA. Bitched Joe didn't make the shirt for him. Then Joe handed him the dew wearing his shirt...
Cool all you guys took time to comment instead of pulling up a chair with jre since you guys are friends with Ross or know what this man has endured. Y'all couldn't last 2 min in la county let alone a Texas or California or Colorado prison
Most don’t want solutions to their problems:50% just want pitty/attention 49% want to turn their problems to yours - 1% actually want help want a fish - Learn to fish -
I mean he asked for 100,000 or a million saying "why wasn't anyone helping me, thats what i was lookin for" and of course he was using it as an example of how he first thought but he still wanted it
@@AbbaZabbaMan ikr..im glad dudes free but that statement let you see that side of him that hasnt progressed. tbh he was looking for a handout from Rogan like he thinks like hey this guy has 100s of millions why wont he break me off something. he doesnt realise rich White folks are some of the most greedy and cheap people.
@@youtubemom497Imagine if everyone you met in your life from now on started treating you like that. As soon as they hear something u say that they don’t like, they dismiss you, either from a job, relationships, friendships…. My point is don’t act holier than thou -and learn to look past things you don’t like in people and realise whatever it is they said that you don’t like, isn’t entirely all they are about. We’re all human.
Exactly. Also, when you are a good drug dealer there are usually people lined up to throw money/product at you to flip for them. Good drug dealers are rare
Ive been listening to the Joe rogan podcast monthly since 2017. No matter if im at work, gettin stoned at night, or just tired of music, im always entertained by the variety of guests.
I found JRE in 2017 as well. My first son was born March 13th 2017 and there was a lot of sleepless nights, and nights I just went out into the garage to get away for a bit.😉 And that’s when I found Joe and his podcast scrolling through YT. And his podcast has been in the front rotation ever since.
Homelessness is an abstract thought until it happens to you. I was riding high on my horse until level 37 then it all fell apart. Have empathy for good people who made bad decisions folks, you never know when it might be you, the line is thinner than you might assume!
Truth man. When I was 19 I made a poor decision and moved, and ended up living in my car with my best friend for 6 months. People need to be kind to the homeless.
@eskee1 Cocaine is a hell of a drug...100k+/year income no bills, the conditions were ideal for a relapse seed with a twenty year dormancy period to spout during peak Covid and troubles of raising 3 kids alone without any support system. I've been sober again for over 2 year but my relationships, kids, transportation, home, cloths, all family photos, possessions, basically gone.
Agree … these are the pods i enjoy the most .. Ricks rags to riches back to rags and then building back to a life that helps others is a real inspiration
He was mad at Rogan for not giving him money, but Rogan gave him the T-shirt idea. Give a man a fish he eats for one day, teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.
WHENEVER YOUVE GOT "F@#K YOU MONEY" AS JOE HAS SAID BEFORE, ITS EASY TO LOOK AT THE WORLD THROUGH CHILDREN'S EYES AND HAVE THAT VIEW. SOMETIMES YOU DONT EVEN REALIZE JUST HOW STRESSED YOU ARE( ON A SUBCONSCIOUS LEVEL)FROM THE DAY TO DAY HUSTLE TO SUSTAIN YOUR LIFESTYLE..WHEN THAT BURDEN IS LIFTED FROM YOU IT REALLY GIVES YOUR MIND AND THOUGHTS A LIMITLESS FEEL TO THINGS AND ROOM TO BREATH CREATING A MORE PHILOSOPHICAL OUTLOOK. JUST IMAGINE IF EVERYONES THOUGHTS AMD IMAGINATION WERENT STUNTED BY THIS CORRUPT SYSTEM SIMILAR TO A BEE COLONY WERE THERES A QUEEN AND ALL HER WORKER BEE'S.
As a former (somewhat successful) substance provider in the UK.. I can honestly say that this interview has really struck a chord with me. Like Rick I was under educated and naive. I also, like Rick, had a propensity for sport. I was a boxer from the age of ten, won many medals and by the time I was 16 I had 3 Welsh and 2 British vests. I loved the acclaim and having grown up in poverty was hungry for respect and any kind of adulation.. suffice to say, I got into “the wrong crowd” and pretty soon I was selling dope and collecting debts with my fists… and it was all good for a while.. Then the bubble burst.. and my whole world came crumbling down. I lost my freedom, my self respect, my friends, my family and any semblance of dignity that I ever held. All that was 30 years ago.. I’ve spent every single day since then working on being a better man. I’m not a perfect person and I never will be.. but like Rick, I’ll just keep on trying…
You’re already a better man. Keep sharing your story and inspiring the next generation to be better versions of themselves. I wish you only the best in life.
You made the right choice. You would’ve ended your career once you fought your first Mexican fighter. You guys are easy work. End up with brain damage and broke.
Thank you Tom, thank you Eli… yeah I’ve thought about telling my story.. but I decided to leave my past in the past. My history is colourful to say the least, but I hurt more people than I helped so I try to move forward without looking back. To cut a long story short, I found music and and music pulled me kicking and screaming away from the nightmare that was my life. I’ve been writing and performing for more than 20 years now and I’ll continue to do so until I breathe my last breath. If you listen to my songs I guess you might say that I’ve already written my life story. Thank you both for your kind words and may your God or Gods bless you ❤
No they're not I tell you what Go give a homeless man your house and all your money within a week he would have spent all that money on crack and sold the house for even more crack and then he'll be right back sleeping on the streets

Admitting you were mad cause someone didn't give you something for nothing is a REAL sign of someone changing to take responsibility for their own circumstances.

As a two time felon myself and not giving up when i was at my lowest freeway rick is 💯 correct i never gave up used my time in prison to further educate myself and found a company to give a felon a chance now im close to 100k per year and never stopping freeway u are a inspiration keep grinding Wanted to add one more thing to all my felons out there DONT give up keep pushing make your own opportunities don't always look for the door to open look for windows too just get your foot in don't stop
I was one of those kids going to school, with holes in my sneakers, wearing the sane clothes, two days in a row, dirty skin, started going out drinking, smoking, doing really dumb stuff headed down the wrong path, really dysfunctional household, until i was put into a Group home and did great. They helped me read better, learn better, I started working wanting better but the Group home agency kicked us back to the messed up environment i came from. I literally got siked out of bettering my life and also the fact a drunk lady hit us in our Group home van messing my back up and cost me years of suffering and pain. Im an adult now and Im still struggling. This place is really fucked up tbh i can't believe humans treat each other this way.
Lol fifty took his name from ny drug dealer smh, Nas callsnhimself esco(bar) u got CNN capone n noreaga...like stop hatin on Rozay. His not the first and only. Plus he only used the name he never claimed to be this guy.
@@Tero92 If you ask me man, made the real Rick more famous. Granted he wasn't a gangster per se but his name held weight, literally. It was the chef's kiss of a rapper name.
Joe is such a solid ass dude. He's not the gatekeeper but he's definitely the guy that the bouncers listen to if he puts in a good word for one of his buddies.

Rick is such a great positive spirit. His laugh is infectious. I'm glad he is doing well in life despite people stealing and profiting from his likeness.
Easier to watch on tv than Spotify. Most TVs have RUclips app pre installed . Also even if you pay for premium Spotify you still get Ads. Premium RUclips has no ads at all. There's 2 reasons. Any more stupid questions?
Loaves and fishes is a great place. I have donated to one of the locations and not only was the staff great but the people around the area were very respectful and helpful.
Thank ya'll for keeping it real and letting people tell it like it really is. Wisdom is knowledge....before we judge people on the choices they've made, look at the options they had to choose from. Much Luv
That BC album is fire. When it came out in 1992(?) it was a big ass deal. Ernie C and Beat Master B laid down some really good guitar and drums. Ice's "Power" album is not to be overlooked. LGBNAF, I'm your pusher, and high rollers are great tracks.
It is wild but like any man I take what's said with a grain of salt and I do my due diligence and research the facts. I don't think being a drug dealer is cool or anything that I'd want my kids to be. Said as a former provider. So glad that life is so no part of my life now.
I just met this man in person last week at Chase Bank in Columbus Ohio. Got a picture with him and it made my day. Real life, living legend in every sense of the phrase.
Thanks guys. I love the vibe you 2 have goin, if only the rest of the world shared the same insight and moral compas. Your both doing great work, its important to humanity
This hits home. I have been out of prison almost 7 years and still struggling. It's hard being a felon no one will give you a second chance no one will rent to me I can't get a decent job. Sometimes I wish I had help but I know I have to do it on my own. y'all are amazing ppl.
Felonies should be like credit scores but 10 years max to remove off your record but qualify under how serious how the felony was, everyone deserves a second chance
Don’t give up. Look for ways to make money online, someone somewhere will give you an opportunity regardless of past. Your mindset determines everything. If you think you can, you will make it. Same for reverse.
Elevator mechanic, electrician, plumbing, welding, hvac, and commercial driving are excellent options for ex felons like ourselves. I’ve made my way back from it, you can too. I got lucky getting into elevators. But a man’s man will see through the bullshit and give you a chance. Best of luck.
Love Rick’s solution to the homeless problem - build houses and give the houses to them to live in - so simple but no one has ever explained it to me in this way. He’s very smart.
Have you ever owned a home if somebody just gives you a home and you don’t have money to take care of it it’s just gonna fall apart. You still have to maintain at home and no homeless person has the means to do that you would basically have to give them the home, maintain the home for them probably feed them, you start doing stuff like that and you’ll have an even bigger problem with people not wanting to work. It’s not that simple is all I’m saying there would have to be much more to it. 😂😂😂
@@josiffexplosiff1 right. I was being sarcastic with the whole comment. No one will see my comment if you disagree with what is being talked about it seems. So now I just post sarcastic comments. I think Rick is kind of scumbag quite frankly. The notion of a how to “seek drugs book” and he says it’s for kids and young people is deplorable.
From that we have the fallout of heroin being imported from Afghanistan. I used to be a turd and when we went into Afghanistan the market was flooded with it here. Like everyone went from selling keys of Columbian marching powered to heroin it was crazy
U mean he stepped down because he found out about corruption that the Vice President and CEO Wayne LaPierre was involved in. I’m pretty sure Oliver North testified.
I knew about it but the whole contras/crack nightmare is one of the first things we learn about in depth in my mental health/addiction behavioral health college classes. It’s such a wild, disgusting American story while they were proclaiming ‘just say no’ publicly. They decimated communities & the effects are still prevalent today. 💔
Except he let this dude get outta prison and be homeless. He didn't care how he was out of prison. He wanted the guest appearance and then bye. That's odd coming from Joe who just said we gotta help each other and all that.
@@IceKoldKillathat's a sense of entitlement, he gave Rick an idea, Rick made money off that idea and this was a Domino effect for more success. Rick, in hindsight, sees this as a blessing as he got his own money without taking hand outs! It is definitely better for someone's self development if they create their own success, more satisfying too.
Hey Joe thanks for having me on your show.
Thank you for the motivation brother! You are very inspiring

This guy is a straight up OG. An OG to OG’s of the street
Yeah and that’s something to be proud of right?
I was one of those kids going to school, with holes in my sneakers, wearing the sane clothes, two days in a row, dirty skin, started going out drinking, smoking, doing really dumb stuff headed down the wrong path, really dysfunctional household, until i was put into a Group home and did great. They helped me read better, learn better, I started working wanting better but the Group home agency kicked us back to the messed up environment i came from. I literally got siked out of bettering my life and also the fact a drunk lady hit us in our Group home van messing my back up and cost me years of suffering and pain. Im an adult now and Im still struggling. This place is really fucked up tbh i can't believe humans treat each other this way.
The kindness here is so inspiring. Blessings to everyone!
"Everybody should be your brother." (Joe Rogan). Amen! Preach it, Joe!
I can't believe it's been 9 years since I watched the last one..
That hit hard like wtf
@@ShortFormLiFefeels better not being alone though. Time warp for real.
Feels like some Mandela effect shit lol
One of the most motivational drug dealers of all time
Freeway Rick Ross is pure joy - love you bro! 100/100 ✅
THE REAL RICK ROSS LETS GO
The wack rick ross
Hells ya boooiiyyyeeeee , no shit stains in balenciaga shorts over here.
@@HeavyNeck-oq4ntthe wack Rick Ross was a screw now he’s a informant / snitch. Plus he’s dying , dude ain’t gonna be around for more than 3 years.
@@badabing2302 yet Rick ross was a c.o. who took his entire m.o. and ran wit it 😂
@@badabing2302wtff 😂😂😭😭😂😂
"Everybody should be your brother" Joe Rogan '24. What a kind man Joe is I value every podcast and everything the dude does.
The first guest on "The real Rick Ross is not a rapper podcast" should be 50 cent
Lol fifty took his name from ny drug dealer smh, Nas callsnhimself esco(bar) u got CNN capone n noreaga...like stop hatin on Rozay. His not the first and only. Plus he only used the name he never claimed to be this guy.
Let’s do it!
@@Tero92but 50 cent WAS a drug dealer before he was a rapper not a correctional officer
Rapper 50 Cent stole his name and identity from the real 50 Cent. Same story with rapper AZ.
@@Tero92 If you ask me man, made the real Rick more famous. Granted he wasn't a gangster per se but his name held weight, literally. It was the chef's kiss of a rapper name.
My uncle just got out of prison, and got a life sentence. He did 39 years and a day. Real talk.
So what do he do??? I mean, if you’re gonna put it out on RUclips I don’t think it’s in bad taste to ask
@@josiffexplosiff1 his name is Arthur Lee Johnson
@@HotDonJohnyo that’s insane bank fraud
The whole episode I was thinking man I wish this dude had a podcast. I bet he has some crazy stories. I hope he starts one
Joe is such a solid ass dude. He's not the gatekeeper but he's definitely the guy that the bouncers listen to if he puts in a good word for one of his buddies.
I’m glad Joe didn’t give him the handout he wanted. Wearing that T-shirt and now showing the book will help him
“Everybody should be your brother”!! That was real. I never comment. But that struck me
But they shouldn’t.
Facts. Ppl should treat every other human as family because we are all humans and should be united as one species. Country borders and resources are here to divide us
@@raymondqiu8202 but “facts” are that we’re all different types of people with different ideologies and goals that conflict with others, and conflict is a natural process, good and evil exist for a reason, it’s all a balance.

Rick is an awesome soul man. Seeing him laugh it off as he talks about these grimy people he dealt with in his life is powerful.
👑💪🏾❤️
Rick Ross from Detroit checking in here 😊
We need an episode like the Graham Hancook and Flint Dibble with Real Rick Ross and Fake Rick Ross.
This is proof that we must look at whats wrong before we learn to fix it. ❤
Thank you SO MUCH Joe.
Rick is such a great positive spirit. His laugh is infectious. I'm glad he is doing well in life despite people stealing and profiting from his likeness.
Joe rogan podcasts recently have been nothing short of epic!!
What pods have you watched? Lol
@@JPZ92what u mean ? Out of the last 15 or so pods like 11 or 12 were straight baaaaaangers.
A** Kissers 😂
You people are so gross
@@JPZ92 Back to the basement
Joe has changed alot
Freeway needs a new Shirt saying: The Real Franklin Saint with a picture of himself on it!
🎯🎯🎯🎯
Would be niche but dope 💯
Seeing Freeway Ricky Ross back on the Podcast puts a huge smile on my face. You can tell that he's in such a good place right now. 💪🏾
Love yo story bro. I'm a fig boy , grew up 102nd. So you know what it is. Did 17 years been free 10 years next week. God is good
This guy has the best laugh, he still comes off as a great individual with a not-so-regular path.
Damn John Singleton ran off on the plugg 👀
Karma got him.
Ricky keeps calling but he's ain't calling back 💀.
Damn shame. That was his life story. Remember Stallone with Rocky?
My wife had a family member who died in a car crash involving Singleton and he didnt do anything for the family
@@JQUE94 sorry for your wife's lost family member..
JRE on YT makes life so much better.
why?
@@father3dollarbillnot everyone has Spotify
If it was explained to you would it change anything?@father3dollarbill
@@smwrbd i asked why
Easier to watch on tv than Spotify. Most TVs have RUclips app pre installed . Also even if you pay for premium Spotify you still get Ads. Premium RUclips has no ads at all. There's 2 reasons. Any more stupid questions?
Big fan of the REAL Rick Ross. Stay strong and positive man.
Loaves and fishes is a great place. I have donated to one of the locations and not only was the staff great but the people around the area were very respectful and helpful.
Joe: "We are all brothers".
He has really matured spiritually. Let that part of you grow "brother".
Peace and Love.
Damn hippy
I think after 500 hours of listening to Joe Rogan, We should be granted a Degree🎓
Of what elk studies and minor ufo bullshit?
@muroki302 you're better than a lot of people

Thank ya'll for keeping it real and letting people tell it like it really is. Wisdom is knowledge....before we judge people on the choices they've made, look at the options they had to choose from. Much Luv
I’d rather be broke n honest than rich n fake
No u wouldn’t. Ur just saying that because u know you’ll never be rich. It’s all good I know I won’t ever be rich but it is nice to be rich
You said it, man

Ice T is hilarious, makes blues metal album called copkiller then plays a cop on tv for the next 20 years
That's how I kno all this sht iz actin. I luv ganksta rap. I jus ain't dum enuff 2 believe it 😂 movies are no diffrent
@@UltraInstinct-yn1ftyou sound pretty dumb to me
That BC album is fire. When it came out in 1992(?) it was a big ass deal. Ernie C and Beat Master B laid down some really good guitar and drums.
Ice's "Power" album is not to be overlooked. LGBNAF, I'm your pusher, and high rollers are great tracks.
blues metal?
@@joshuagibson2520 it was so fucking good, man
I’m gonna buy a shirt brother! Major respect to the real Ross
I remember playing chess with Rick at the halfway house in Shell Town SD. Absolutely brilliant dude. Glad to see he doin good.
The REAL Rick Ross!! WTF!!!
He’s been on before my friend
Yeah man real rick ross was a staple of old school jre
The only Rick Ross, the other guy was Rosay.😂😂😂
Who?
Street Dreams Co did a sick collab with Freeway on a shirt line..
My man Ricky has a dispensary, talk about full circle🙏🏾🙏🏾
This man’s life is crazy
It is wild but like any man I take what's said with a grain of salt and I do my due diligence and research the facts. I don't think being a drug dealer is cool or anything that I'd want my kids to be. Said as a former provider. So glad that life is so no part of my life now.
I just met this man in person last week at Chase Bank in Columbus Ohio. Got a picture with him and it made my day. Real life, living legend in every sense of the phrase.
Thanks guys. I love the vibe you 2 have goin, if only the rest of the world shared the same insight and moral compas. Your both doing great work, its important to humanity
This hits home. I have been out of prison almost 7 years and still struggling. It's hard being a felon no one will give you a second chance no one will rent to me I can't get a decent job. Sometimes I wish I had help but I know I have to do it on my own. y'all are amazing ppl.
Goodluck Zach. 💪🏻
Felonies should be like credit scores but 10 years max to remove off your record but qualify under how serious how the felony was, everyone deserves a second chance
Don’t give up. Look for ways to make money online, someone somewhere will give you an opportunity regardless of past. Your mindset determines everything. If you think you can, you will make it. Same for reverse.
Elevator mechanic, electrician, plumbing, welding, hvac, and commercial driving are excellent options for ex felons like ourselves. I’ve made my way back from it, you can too. I got lucky getting into elevators. But a man’s man will see through the bullshit and give you a chance. Best of luck.

Genuine conversation, the world needs to take notes! This is how human interaction should be, just two beautiful souls❤
Posted 7 minutes ago this is wiiiiiiiildddd to wake up to! Freeway Rick getting his shine on JRE! Support this man!
Love Rick’s solution to the homeless problem - build houses and give the houses to them to live in - so simple but no one has ever explained it to me in this way. He’s very smart.
Have you ever owned a home if somebody just gives you a home and you don’t have money to take care of it it’s just gonna fall apart. You still have to maintain at home and no homeless person has the means to do that you would basically have to give them the home, maintain the home for them probably feed them, you start doing stuff like that and you’ll have an even bigger problem with people not wanting to work. It’s not that simple is all I’m saying there would have to be much more to it. 😂😂😂
@@josiffexplosiff1 right. I was being sarcastic with the whole comment. No one will see my comment if you disagree with what is being talked about it seems. So now I just post sarcastic comments. I think Rick is kind of scumbag quite frankly. The notion of a how to “seek drugs book” and he says it’s for kids and young people is deplorable.
Oliver North, who recently stepped down for the NRA due to corruption accusations, was also involved in the Iran-Contra affair
From that we have the fallout of heroin being imported from Afghanistan. I used to be a turd and when we went into Afghanistan the market was flooded with it here. Like everyone went from selling keys of Columbian marching powered to heroin it was crazy
Shouldn’t he have gotten promoted at the NRA for corruption?
Source?
@@timrobinson6573 You can watch his many days of congressional testimony on RUclips. It was like the OJ trial before the OJ trial.
U mean he stepped down because he found out about corruption that the Vice President and CEO Wayne LaPierre was involved in. I’m pretty sure Oliver North testified.
What a sweet, hopeful angel of a man. Big blessing to the real Rick Ross and his family.
I knew about it but the whole contras/crack nightmare is one of the first things we learn about in depth in my mental health/addiction behavioral health college classes. It’s such a wild, disgusting American story while they were proclaiming ‘just say no’ publicly. They decimated communities & the effects are still prevalent today. 💔
Yet evry1 prefers 2 act unaware that THIS iz tha behavior amerikkka iz literally built on 😂😂 vote 4 trump tho lmao he'll save tha werld 🤦🏾♂️
Vote for an English teacher to help you
Very true!!
@@stevemill8959dat iz da phunnyest chit I done red ina minute
Rogan is top tier.
Except he let this dude get outta prison and be homeless. He didn't care how he was out of prison. He wanted the guest appearance and then bye. That's odd coming from Joe who just said we gotta help each other and all that.
@@IceKoldKillathat's a sense of entitlement, he gave Rick an idea, Rick made money off that idea and this was a Domino effect for more success. Rick, in hindsight, sees this as a blessing as he got his own money without taking hand outs! It is definitely better for someone's self development if they create their own success, more satisfying too.
That 'other guy' should be called 'sidewalk Rick Ross'.
*K-Mart Rick Ross or Big Lots Rick Ross
I like "outlet ditch" or "storm drain" Rick Ross. It has a certain ring to it.
Officer Ross.
Officer Ricky
He shouldn’t be called anything close to the name,
It took me 5 days, but I finished the pod! Great convo!
