Bio
Ricky Donnell Ross, better known as “Freeway” Rick Ross, is one of
those rare figures whose experience as a drug kingpin has lead him to a
life of rebuilding the community in which he once helped destroy. According
to the Oakland Tribune” In the course of his rise, prosecutors estimate
that Ross exported several tons of cocaine nationally, and made more than
$600 million in the process. Counting inflation its 1.6 billion dollars
comparing 1986 to 2010. Now, he has applied the passion that helped him
build an empire to helping the youth, Ross has been given a second chance
to uplift his community by giving back through mentoring and sharing his
story. He plans to inspire many of today’s youths to achieve their
greatest successes without following in his footsteps.
