Former drug dealer Freeway Ricky Ross was very vocal about his thoughts on Jay Z's street authenticity while recently appearing on the "Murder Master Music Show." Ricky Ross has previously served 20 long years in prison for selling drugs, and found Jay's recent interview with Vanity Fair where he recalled his crack dealing days to be very "corny". He doesn't truly believe that Jay lived the life he claims to have lived, and believes that he and others in the industry making the same claims have just been putting up a front in the public eye.
"I'm just out here pounding the concrete, been in Orlando and just left Detroit hitting these high schools up really letting them know about these dudes out here who are faking talking about they sold dope and its so corny. I was just reading on the airplane the other day in Vanity Fair with Jay-Z in it talking about that he sold crack. I was just reading it and it was so corny. These dudes just don't keep it 100. They was good boys and went to school and got college degrees and somebody gave them a good job and they doin' alright. Everybody wanna be D-Boyz but they don't have real D-Boy stories. When you read what they said it looks like a news reporter wrote it for them.
"That's crazy that you said that but they are excepted by everybody. These people let them go and talk to their kids and the President of the United States will invite them to the White House, but with me I did 20 years in prison and I am telling them to not sell drugs and you gotta try to make it a better way. When I sold dope I believed that it was cool at that time to sell dope and I don't feel like that anymore and that's why I do what I do right now."
