With his case pending,  Ricky Donnell Ross aka “Freeway” Rick Ross is clearly adamant on securing the rightful ownership of his name sake…and rightfully so, he should.

     Not surprisingly though, his current legal challenges and “negative-but-celebrated” former lifestyle keeps his name relevant.  Oh…and also rapper Rick Ross ( or nowadays called Ricky Rozay), whose real name is William L. Roberts,  is keeping the name abuzz in the entertainment world.  Since serving time in federal prison, Ross has been on the journey to shed the negativity and try his best in living a normal life. 

     Recently, I received an email from him asking that STACKS Magazine remove a old photo of him that wasn’t too flattering.  Although I’m sure other media outlets or search engines had a copy of this same photo, I didn’t mind replacing it with a nice conservative picture of Ross in a suit. I understood his want to shred any negative “visuals” sprawled out over the internet.  As Ross says he’s, “…trying to present a better image of blacks and myself…”

    I instantly wondered what was going on with him, though, outside of the court case.  So I reached out to him with a few questions. The real Rick Ross kept his answers concise.

Bels:  What has Rick Ross been up to since being released from prison? Has any books or films been released?

Rick Ross:  I’ve been working hard as I can. Setting up a trucking company to employ young blacks, website www.freewayenterprise.com  and developing my feature film.

Bels:  What is the status of the pending lawsuit against rapper Rick Ross?

Rick Ross:  The case is moving through the California state and Federal court system.

Bels:  What are your plans after the case is settled?

Rick Ross:  I haven’ t made plans. Taking things step by step

 

     Not alluding to any timeline regarding the feature film, I wonder when this will come to the big screen or dvd.  I’d be interested in seeing it myself being an avid viewer of great cinematic drug tales (i.e. Scarface, Godfather, Blow).   Who better else to tell his story…than himself.
