Jay Z has been rapping about selling drugs for years, but former drug kingpin Freeway Ricky Ross believes it's all made up.
Jay talked about his drug dealing past in a recent interview with Vanity Fair's Lisa Robinson. He said the knowledge he gained from his illegal activities would help in his latest venture as a sports agent.
"I know about budgets. I was a drug dealer," he told Robinson. "To be in a drug deal, you need to know what you can spend, what you need to re-up. Or if you want to start some sort of barbershop or car wash-those were the businesses back then. Things you can get in easily to get out of [that] life. At some point, you have to have an exit strategy, because your window is very small; you're going to get locked up or you're going to die."
Freeway Ricky, who ran a multi-million dollar drug empire in the late 80's before getting busted called Hov out during a new interview with the Murder Master Music Show,
"I've been hitting these high schools up letting them know about these dudes that's out here faking. Talking about they sold dope. And you read that sh*t and it's so corny," Ross said. "I was just reading on the airplane the other day the Vanity Fair with Jay Z in it, talking about he sold crack. Just reading that story was so corny. These dudes don't keep it 100. They was good boys and went to school and got college degrees. Somebody gave them a good job and they're doing alright right now. Everybody wanna be d-boys, 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."
Freeway Ricky was even more harsh in his assessment of rapper Rick Ross.
"I believe [rapper Ross] is being financed by the police unions to keep spreading bullsh*t to the youngsters, so they can keep filling up the penitentiaries ," Freeway continued. "Because he ain't selling no music. They keep playing him on the radio and keep putting out these big expensive videos, but he ain't selling no music. So somebody is hitting off money. I believe it's the police unions behind it."

So let me get this straight. Jay-Z rhymes about selling drugs. Gets invited to the Whitehouse. Freeway Rick Ross, The REAL Rick Ross tells young black men to not sell drugs, he gets shunned... Makes sense...
A lot of people dont like him cuz they feel he is the same person who had a part in the crack epidemic and never got past that
Jay z is the bigger man for quitting the drug dealer life. Free way ross fucked up by staying in the game
the real rick ross made more money than people with jobs in his lifetime but he also reached out to the communities as usual to help out folks who were struggling and that's deep coming from a real dude who cares about the community.
you can just look a GAY Z and tell he never really sold dope in his life.
Not only was Jay getting money outta town, he shot his own brother for stealing his chain back in the days. You can look that up. Don't believe the bullshit, Jay was thoro. Now officer Ricky on the other hand.....
+Jakar Brown tell these false ass clowns the truth...the song is "u must luv me"
Jakar Brown so I stabbed my brother in his neck for stealing my slurpy, it was about 15 years ago, we never spoke of it, my brother is no snitch...and why would I tell on myself??? And I'm still in the hood, maybe I should have wrote a song about it and tell my brother to talk about it so we have clowns buy my albums,
Joe Mama u jus told on yourself...
The statue of limitation is up, nice try square Bear, and like I said my brother is not snitching or pressing charges...your name fits you Jakar you are definitely a JAKE. Never been in trouble, know nothing about the law, its people like you who believe in anything Jay-z say's
REAL RICK ROSS SPEAKING TRUTH NONE OF THESE RAPPERS CLAIMING DRUG LORD STATUS IS REAL.. IT'S JUST ENTERTAINMENT AND PEOPLE SEEM TO NOT RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCE
There is now, they don’t have prominent careers because of it tho.
I know stay woke people
The Rap game has always been about gimmicks.
If Freeway Rick say you never sold crack then you never sold crack....
Jay bought half bricks or so off inner city drug dealers. Freeway Rick Ross was supplying those inner city drug dealers. It’s levels
let the man talk god damnt it
Why do they gotta still his name though ? ? ? ?Only 1 Rick Ross.. AND that's Freeway Ricky Ross !!!!
+Frankiefrthbronx The other 50Cent is dead tho. He's not walking around being confused about what's going on... LOL
Thank God for Real street dude Freeway Rick Ross keeping it 💯💰
He def not lying about those private funded prisons you can do your own research on that
Transition is a testimony of good change. Why glorify our own destruction when we realize it was a set up from day1. Good interview.
Why niggas keep comin at Jay ? Sounds like straight hate, the dude is pretty fucking smart. Calvin Klein verified that he did hustle back when so stop the fuckin hate.
Two words: Real Talk.
I know several people that went to college that sold drugs lol
Some of them sold at the college they were attending at the time
facts
More and more rappers are getting exposed. I heard that Tyga isn't from Compton, Drake didn't "start from the bottom", Lil Wayne isn't a real Blood, Game was a stripper and his brother said he was never in a gang. Looks like 50 Cent has the most street credibility, as well as people who can back that up.
FYI... Rap music (just like any genre of music) is just entertainment. Who cares whether an actor, rapper or singer is really living the life they portray in film or in music.. They are simply entertainers doing what they're paid to do. We gotta learn how to separate fiction from reality... The only people who are butthurt over the fact that their favorite rapper is fake, are the people who invest too much time into glorifying drug dealers and the drug game. No real killer and/or drug dealer would rap about things they've done.. Especially if they've never been caught and/or served time for it. Just take music for what it is... Just entertainment.
That's what Dre said
Sad, but true! Glorifying drug dealing and shooting make you a thorough cat to many...smh
How would he know what someone from the other side of the country did? For someone Jay-Z's age it really isn't even that big a deal. In the late 80s damn near everyone sold dope in NYC. It has 8 times as many people as the average city so that's 8 times as many crackheads during the peak of the cocaine era. Do the math.
+MegaBruceleroy damn. why you do him like that though?
because ricky ross was a multi millionaire off selling dope. when he sold dope across da world im pretty sure he knows who all da dope sellers are
+MegaBruceleroy Thank you. this dude was connected to your U.S. president in the 80's. they knew who was major players and who was dime niggas.
offbeatbop ty
offbeatbop right rite
My whole teenage years I have been lied too
Your whole life.
I rather be true and broke than be fake and rich.
If you not from the black community, then you wouldn't understand. Some of us grew up in circumstances where your backs is against the wall, especially if you're a teenger and no one is given an opportunity to better yourself. Freeway Ricky is a living legend for alot of us brothers from the hood....salute to the OG.
Jay Z didnt sell dope.....but he sold his booty to the billionaires at the Bohemian Grove...
Anyone can sell dope. Selling a lot of dope is different
Ricky wasn't the only one selling to his own people.
Jay z was no where near him in the streets but jay z street cred has been verified. Rozay was a correctional officer
Word
Idk bout that...hova got like so many people from the streets saying he was movin bricks... He has a lot of witnesses and co signers
i don't believe it most rappers are professional liers
+Dr J Snitched on crooked police to save his case? Lol
jay Thawriter ty
Hahaha... Gaybach Music... And what is Roc-A-Fella? Rock a fella (from behind)?
difference is 50 cent actually did what he raps about lol
Jay Z I was never a drug dealer I remember him in 95 96 he was a hang around as far as the real dope boys
Yo B stop lying, in 95 / 96 Jay was doing music putting his album out"
@@thetunkmaster he was a hang around doing masonic rituals gtf outta here
All rap music is a charade.
how the fuck did the rick ross not win the lawsuit against officer ricky that's b.s
Hov did a little dabbling , but I can't speak for the FAKE Rickey! (that part)!
O got nothing but love for the real Rick Ross but how the hell would he know if jay z really sold dope. He didn't grow up with this nigga. He was on the opposite coast while all that shit was happening
It seems like those west coast act like they know what's going on on the BEAST COAST!!! Homeboy from "Cocaine Cowboy" pt.2 even had the nerve to say that the Supreme Team, Rich Porter, A.Z., and Alpo wasn't getting it!!! How does he know???
he didn't say he didn't sell dope just said he wasn't pushing the weight like he said he did
+Brian Jones but he made enuff money to get a record label started and now dam near worth a billon
Jay definitely was on the block.. I don't know what ross talking about.. He ain't from NY, so he wouldn't know
@@simplyroyal8281 Nope I'm from Brooklyn ...Jay was out there getting it...Y'all need to quit the hate...It's not a difficult occupation it's easy as fuck and Jay is very intelligent so he took it to another level and narrated through the music...I don't expect slow people to get it though...He already told y'all he's still spending money from '88
@@rbw718 exactly, niggas need to look up Emory. Lost 92 bricks had to fall back. He was low with his. How do they think he funded Rocafella with dame and Biggs. He was in the street from 16- 26. They need to stopp
Everyone knows that Jay Z was no big time drug dealer... he probably sold a few ounces but nothing major.
love him! he is such an inspiration
You dont have to be a super tough guy alpha male to sell crack. At least I mean in my city in 80s and 90s you had all types of dudes doing that even college students and so called "lames". Maybe jay z and his contemporaries wasnt the scarface crime bosses they portray in they music but it's not far fetched to believe he sold drugs in 80s and 90s. It's not an honorable profession we be making it out to be, in my opinion. But what do I kno. I feel what he saying tho. Dope video
I understand Free Way Ricky's frustration, you come out the Pen, and your life, image and even name is making some former C.O from Florida money. I mean, y'all need to think about that for a min...he did 20, he come out a legend but other people eatin off the work he put in. As for Jay Z selling dope; everybody knows he put in work, but not at the Level Freeway Rick did.
Jay Z is not a lame. He use to run shit in Md. back in thr day. He had loyal dudes in his click that kept they mouth shut when they got busted. As result, Jay is making sure those cats are eating today. Don't Hate The Player, Hate The Game. HE PLAYED THE GAME AND WON.
Wat r u talking about, jay z old boys from marcy don't fuck wit him at all, they said hes a snake and he disloyal
That's what Jay wrote in his book. Dat make it tru?
Jason Dorsey ty
@@brainsy3072
Does Ross saying it's a lie make it a lie?
freeway rick an rick ross is two diffent people
why nigga you talking about people let some rapper or x dealers talk to kids or family but you did the same.and far as pay hamage nobody owe you shit it a new day nobody wanna hear that wisdom or knowledge shit today's language is money knowledge don't pay bills
I love this dude!!!!
I have met people who are from Trenton who have vouched for JAY-Z
Real hood nigga YES real d-boy serving birds to dealers in his city NO
+mon dan yea u know the streets like me. if u getting money ppl from other city's will hear your name it rings bells
+mon dan
exactly ! ; )
I'm from Trenton NJ and Jay Z sold drugs in East Trenton
He also hung out with some dealers that I know personally growing up in Divine Land (Donelly Homes). So Freeway Ricki Ross is wrong about him. l have pictures with him and the brothers from Trenton that he got money with. Not glorifying it...Just telling the truth. Peace.
+Gregory Corker
I think its not so much a case of did or didn't he ...
its more about where he was in the food chain and the embellishment of that fact.
all it takes is one sell to have actually sold dope not really that difficult to understand. But a dime and a key makes for a very different experience lol
Jay Z and crew came into the game with near 100k collectively which is what gave them skin in the game and leverage for the label to take a chance on them but of course he was not on Freeways level and I think Freeway doesn’t like it because he actually was BIG time in the streets and doesn’t appreciate Jay-Z glorifying a life he didn’t even stay in long enough too become big time. It’s like starting a business and shutting it down after making 100K claiming to be a business Guru but regardless you have to give Jay-Z credit for taking his initial investment into himself and becoming a Billionaire legitimately.
Jay Z was a D-Boy... And his connect was out of Cali too that reached over the border all facts... Idk why OG Freeway Rick says that tho
dude im from new york i aint been to prison but in my day everyone was seling drugs either small or big time.. so maybe thats the cali interpretation. but in new york everyone wad on that hustle in some form or the other
Don't glorify a life you never lived...
Don't glorify a negative life period rather you lived it or not
Paul Jones Glorify naw,its still a conversation that needs to be had. Cause its still going on . The acts are still being shadowed by the government and moving in the wrong direction by them. They don't want to stop ,lets say start the war on drugs. Maybe some day not our lifetime.
this Brother A real G
Real recognize Real all over the Globe Believe That
selling drugs for a month or a few months does make you a drug dealer it makes you a hustler...
why do people talk while the person being interviewed is answering a question? nobody clicked on this vid to hear anyone else but the real Rick Ross talk
i knew jay z was a liar about the kilos he supposedly sold most rappers are professional liars
Not to start anything but since Ricky Ross don't like Rick Ross much I wonder if 50 Cent would've disliked rapper 50 Cent.
So they're on here trying to prove who sold drugs and who didn't? Very motivational. -encore-
When 2Pac rapped he told the truth !
+Iron Mike NIGGA IM TUPAC
+? ? You're more like Steve Urkel
+Iron Mike Lol? The ballerina told the truth? He wore an entertaining mask and fools followed suite. 2pac was fake.
+AtenAkaAton1 u aint got no knowledge of kemet fool
I AM WHAT I AM Want more tinfoil for that hat?
Jay z use to sell dope jus small time tho he wasn’t no game changer or nothin my pops kno the niggas that use to chase em off the block in Marcy big facts
That pic of Jay-Z he looks like Joe camel in a fancy suit lol. He's got Beyonce he must be doing something right.
Where in there does he say that Jayz never sold dope??
Jay-Z, from "Hawaiian Sophie" fame, Big Little whatever..
gay-z from hawaiian sophie fame big little whatever kmsl
one thing for sure jayz was definitely getting money all facts not like freeway rick but he definitely was getting. THATS A FACT
that's what I listen to underground hip hop
Jay-Z dropped out of high school..Jay-Z sold dope.. he should be mad with Ross simply from not paying his respects. Next video

And it was *actually* on an SEMI-LARGE scale too,*espescially* for street level dudes{250-500grams/quarter-hour kilo} back then....
Totally it's obvious that he sold, where in this interview does he say he didn't I didn't hear it but it is in the title
Everybody has sold at least a gram of some shit in the hood. So we can all say we sold drugs

Ricky Donnell Ross (born May 3, 1960), better known as "Freeway" Rick Ross, is an American author and convicted drug trafficker best known for the drug empire he established in Los Angeles, California, in the early to mid 1980s.
Ross attended high school at Susan Miller Dorsey High School in Los Angeles. He played for the tennis team but was unable to get a college scholarship because he was illiterate.
Ross has said that when he first saw crack-cocaine as a teenager in 1979, he did not immediately believe it was a drug because it looked different from other drugs he had seen.
The nickname Freeway came from Ross' owning properties along the Los Angeles Harbor Freeway and living next to the 110. According to an October 2013 Esquire magazine article, "Between 1982 and 1989, federal prosecutors estimated, Ross bought and resold several metric tons of cocaine. In 1980 dollars, his gross earnings were said to be in excess of $900 million - with a profit of nearly $300 million. Converted roughly to present-day dollars: 2.5 billion gross, and $850 million in profit, respectively.” During the height of his drug dealing, Ross was said to have sold "$3 million in one day." According to the Oakland Tribune, "In the course of his rise, prosecutors estimate that Ross exported several tons of cocaine to New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and elsewhere, and made more than $600 million between 1983 and 1984."
In 1996, Ross was sentenced to life imprisonment after being convicted for purchasing more than 100 kilograms of cocaine from a federal agent in a sting operation. Later that year, a series of articles by journalist Gary Webb in the San Jose Mercury News revealed a connection between one of Ross's cocaine sources, Danilo Blandón, and the CIA as part of the Iran-Contra scandal. Ross's case was brought to a federal court of appeals which reduced his sentence to 20 years as a result of Ross being over-sentenced. He was released from custody on September 29, 2009.
After 5 years of out prison, Freeway Rick Ross says he has found redemption.
Freeway Rick Ross: The Untold Autobiography is an intimate look at the day-to-day dealings of a drug kingpin in the heart of the ghetto. It's also the story of a boy born in poverty Texas who grew up in a single-parent household in the heart of South Central, who was pushed through the school system each year and came out illiterate. His options were few, and he turned to drug dealing. This Untold Autobiography is not only personal, but also historical in its implications. Rick Ross chronicles the times by highlighting the social climate that made crack cocaine so desirable, and he points out that at the time, the “cops in the area didn't know what crack was; they didn't associate the small white rocks they saw on homies as illegal drugs.” All Rick Ross knew was people wanted it.
Not to past judgment of Freeway Rick Ross, he now says that all he knew was that the people wanted the crack; yes, were addicted to the crack that he was killing them with.
But just home many people did Freeway Rick Ross killed in his nearly $1 billion cocaine trafficking business? From 1982 to 1989, thousands of people died or where killed directly related to Freeway Rick Ross cocaine trafficking business. So how does one truly repent for being responsible for thousands of individuals demise? Can one truly rectify with Almighty God a holocaust that one brought to the black community?
For me, I'm not feeling Freeway Rick Ross. But Bro. Ross doesn't have to answer to me. He has nothing to prove to me though he hasn't inspired me to read his book. Personally, I am not interested in reading an intimate look at the day-to-day dealings of a drug kingpin although I unequivocally believe that "Freeway" was responsible for the death of thousands.
No! At 54 years of age, Freeway Rick Ross should not be pushing "his" book entitled: Freeway Rick Ross: The Untold Autobiography. But rather, Freeway Rick Ross should be pushing the way to true salvation by reading the Bible daily.
That way we can avail ourselves of the ransom sacrifice of Christ Jesus. Yes! His perfect BLOOD that bought as well as brought us out of sin and death.
Yes! True redemption is not about US. It is not about us trying to push books, CDs, DVDs, and even the so-called religious retreats that the televangelist pimps are promoting 24/7/365.
So Freeway Rick Ross, if you want to write a book, write one about how you have truly repented for the thousands of lives that you have taken, and have assisted the police and federal authorities in cold-case murders so that the countless victims' families can have some closure.
Remember, Almighty God knows all things, even if people who claim the have redemption but are really trying to make a profit.
Hebrews 4:13

Jay Z really sold dope nice try tho
In the 90s he said he never did. I thought it was common knowledge that he did not.
Dewayne Davis ty
Dewayne Davis where
He really didnt. My family is from Bedstuy and they NEVER heard of him nor was he known in Marcy.
Officer Ricky n all those who promote bullshit these rappers are dirtying the street
It's a generational thing cause some people hate that they talk about jay n fake Ross. This happens when rappers are black figures
at the end of the day; Money >
All rap is a big lie. way back to NWA not to Jay Z and Ross. none of these dudes do what that rap about but you don't see Al Pacino or Deniro doing they shit they do in moves, its all just entertainment. people worship starts to much. taking all this fake stuff to heart.
Wayne Gates eazy was street but other members of nwa really didn't do shit like that
jay hugg mc ren was
Jay z made money from selling drugs. He wasnt a king pin but he made good money.
Is Freeway Rick Ross going to admit he was employed by the CIA as well and why they allowed him to move so much money and drugs in and out of his city?
What show is this
the real rick ross is being used to attack hiphop. them rappers never said nothin bad about him. just listen to him
WORD!!!
#REAL recognize #REAL. THEM two ain't real
Akbar was the head of an organization known simply as The Family
RICK ROSS .. YEAH I CAN ARGUE THAT ... BUT JAY Z ? NAW ITS ENEMIES THAT EVEN VOUCHED FOR HIM
can't speak for ross .. but I use to see jayz in my hometown cambridge md as a 8 year old... all facts
Rich White wait so did he sell Dope or nah
Abcd Efgh let's just say Ross don't know what he talking about.. lol
There's an agenda in music. With hip hop police, I do believe most rappers are fake and are miss leading the youth.
this needed to be said..rick ross is real! all these fake ass rappers are acting like they were in the dope game
WHY are these rappers rapping about the drug dealers life.. When they never EVER lived the life ! ?
IDK but fuck Officer Ricky. I'm getting sick of him and his phony drug dealing raps. I rather bump Brisco and Infamous Mobb than that fat bastard.
+bluehorse888 You made a very Simple (not in mental but to the point), Concise and Profound Statement. Not bad. Stay UP.
Freeway is a snitch
first off Free Way Ricky Ross need to shut up because the truth is he was not the biggest cocaine dealer in California History. It was George Jung the white dude who had ties to Pablo Escobar who was Cali biggest Cocaine dealer. so Ross is getting credit for being a big shot when he had no connections to Pablo or Columbia
Be careful of your words respect everyone.
Haters gon hate
Wow it's more comments about if jay really sold dope than what the interview was about.....why is that so important!! If I really did and these niggas calling me a fraud, and I'm 500 million plus.....I would be thankful, like whew I didn't think I could pull this off......,moma we made it, let's get out of here NOW !!!!
he did virgin islands
Let's get something straight, did jay z sell drugs, yes, was he as big as he say he was, no, n for the record coming from a real Md. Person. He never ran Md AT ALL! DMX has more respect down here than he does. When the drug war popped of he did what he normally does, leave n wait till everything is good again
Freeway rick is such a legend.... sikeee!!!! boy served half his life in jail XD
In the hood we the Run-DMCs
Best quotes and wrote we don't need
Death Row on foul like Cool C
Big flossy the bitches like "who's he?"
Yes. I know what you are saying. Why do you keep asking?
he got other problems (with Barney's, New York) after those racial profiling incidents..its starting to fall apart with these clowns.
the shit fire I'm listening I think of rap artists as journalist nothing more nothing less
You guys have so much to say about jay z but answer me this how did he become so rich before he came into music
