I’m a teacher. I’ve been saying it and writing about it since I was in college, poverty can be a learning disability. I spend all kinds of money on snacks because most of the students that give me problems are hungry and tired. It’s a lot. Most students who can’t read never learn or are incapable of decoding. Early childhood education with consistent attendance is crucial. Also, most interventions are parent initiated. Teachers can flag students but unless they’re a severe behavioral problem they get pushed to the back of the line. In most districts parent initiated evaluations have to be done in 30-60 days. If you don’t advocate for your child, they won’t get what they need.
Mecca’s bread and butter is Hip Hop.. he feel he need to defend an imposter who can rhyme.. and the best way is to act holier than thou like he don’t know Drug dealers and the underworld.. 🤡
@@perrynnlynch1883he fasho did.. his whole energy during this video u can just tell he a lame hating ahh dude.. I don’t even watch these dudes but everytime I run accross a clip worth watching dude on sum hating shii in every one
I can tell Mecca had a good upbringing, and there's nothing wrong with that. He doesn't seem to get how certain situations can happen. Adds a different perspective to the conversation even if it comes off as judgmental at times.
He's very judgemental to guys from the street. What he needs to do is take his a&r mindset out of real life experiences everybody can try to be little someone example he got quite as a mice fart when dame check him but hitmaker did him like he tried to do rick
@@tylerst2009 I don’t think it’s judgmental at all. I appreciate his perspective because he’s not a street dude and he seems to come across as someone who doesn’t idolize that lifestyle or behaviors that’s detrimental to the Black community. I have nothing but respect for him because of that. I can also appreciate the stories of people like the real Real Rick Ross because while he lived a life of crime and was incarcerated for it, he was honest and self reflective of the decisions he made and has matured. What I don’t respect are folks like Rick Ross, the rapper who glorified the lifestyle of being a “ Boss” all while stealing someone else’s name, profiting off of it and had no desire to pay a man for using his name and image for his own personal gain. Now that is something I don’t respect!
FreewayRickyRoss Any learning material I can gain from you in any aspect would be much appreciated reading or learning material! Thank You my Manz! Your Amazing and I really Look Up Too You! Your such a influence and blessing in my Life!
Math you completely stepped on a great question that Mecca was asking, relax the art of a good interview is not always having to chime in on someone else’s question in a group setting. Respectfully.
Just so people understand... This man's "net worth" was over 900 million dollars.. This is during the 80s mind you, so today that would've been around 4 billion dollars. That's just his estimated net worth. Imagine how much money he had elsewhere. That man was wealthy beyond words.
Building a barbershop set in a secure location could be a game-changer for your podcast. It would offer the authentic vibe without compromising safety.
After watching this interview, I’m disgusted with and lost all of my respect for Rick Ross, the rapper. The fact he could use the real Rick Ross name without permission and pull the nonsense he did in court is wildly disrespectful. Totally appreciate listening to the real Rick Ross interview. Thanks Math and the MEO crew for making this interview happen!
Mecca be cool with these fake rapper gangbangers but seems like he has a problem with real drug kingpin. Ps why he didnt have that hater engrey trowards Bimmy
Yeah, most in there were probably not born yet during the Freeway Rick era. Regan, Oliver North, the contra scandal. Flooding South Central with drugs!!! If you seen tv show Snowfall, that show is loosely based on his life.
That question mecca was asking wasn't about what he was asking but the tone in his voice. He was asking that question like he was a cop interrogating a suspect!! Your body language tells exactly how you feel about him and your facial expression.
Big Facts his whole mood was off putting like such disdain for a man that ruined his own community..... Like bro if it wasn't him it would've been anybody else with less common Sense. Why he don't look at the tobacco industry or OTC prescriptions, big pharma does the same shit legally though. FOH
But it's a great question... Because it destroyed a lot of families with all the drugs that he was distributing in the black community... I wanted to hear his personal feelings on what he did also
@@dantemackey7471 He’s answered that same question in multiple interviews. Of course he gonna take some responsibility but at the end of the day the suppliers aint forcing anybody to use drugs. If it’s a market for it, somebody got to sell the product.

Why was Mecca acting like that? Very unusual, feel like Hoffa should talk to him about this episode, that was nasty & weird behavior, even from the way he shook his hand and turned away with a stank face.
There to green never been around that type of calibration math tried him about john Singletary corny ass joke insinuating about the mans death rick just looked at him no professionalism from from those guys play I can talk hobby race horse's r.burke
I remember my friend lent me Freeway’s book years back. I must’ve read the thing in a couple days. Not to glorify the negative lifestyle and the effects that it has on families, but reading about someone come from nothing to making millions is almost like an escape from your own reality. Money isn’t the most important thing in life, but I think we all dream to have the type of lifestyle he had in the 80’s.
We went to LA to see some football games 5 years back. Went straight from the airport to Roscos. As soon as we stepped out the car, Freeway was standing there. My son took a picture with him. I didn't even know who he was. I have read and looked at everything about him since.
“DJ Vlad type questions” is really just standard hard-hitting interview questions that most ask when they’re not in the game of just glazing up guests 😂
Come on math!! Let ur co host ask there ? Cuz we may know answer and dude basically asking same? But want different answer. So if Rick Ross or however cool with it let co host try get his understanding. Clearly he never been in streets. Have patience bro. Good one right here 💯💯
The crazy part is the rapper did a interview back in the day and he said in the book he talk to the real Freeway and said he got his blessing while he was in jail he could use the name
Of course not on his level, but I can relate to his motives. I was a good kid surrounded by poverty, and when I started selling dope in the late 80s/early 90s I had no clue of the social destruction of my decisions. We weren't clairvoyant; we were hungry, no gas or lights, welfare, single parent household, nothing for Christmas, witnessing domestic violence, cousins and homies murdered and extended family doing just as bad. Second generation Section 8... We were babies out there, that wanted a way out. By any means necessary. If folks can't understand, I don't know what to tell you. I would say, you had to been there to understand, but I won't wish that on anyone. We were dodging systematic racism, poverty, death and the penitentiary. Folks weren't concerned with nor considering what others would think decades later. I was concerned with my current condition and other folks DIDN'T care whether me and minds survived or perished. Those eviction notices and eating at Catholic Charties served as proof. Salute to anyone that made it through that era. Standing here today, thriving and raising your seeds in an entirely different environment. Salute 💯 Funny how writing raps and producing films about that era remains cool. Its a cottage industry. Even Reagan is still heralded and his history is revised (Iran-Contra). But the other side of that coin, the people who actually lived it, are denigrated and condemned at times. Zero empathy or understanding of the situation during those times.
I relate to this guy so much. All throughout school I was like why am I here when we need money! And you know how that story always goes. You aren’t old enough to work so you go grab the work 🤷♂️
Who is y’all to say Rick should have remorse as if people he was selling to didn’t have a choice Y’all so judgmental until it’s one of y’all sons or fathers doing it then it’s we had to survive I like meccas questions but he is kinda uptight here Like he tryna prove he doesn’t look up to him WE KNOW🙄
That was great man. Thank you all for coming together and sharing these Lessons and Experiences. After listening to Mr. Ross speak about his life story, I really Respect the Mindset and the *rezielyence he's shown throughout time to Elevate and create his own reality, regardless of the circumstance or situation. From Life in prison to freedom wealth and Abundance. Legacy. It reminds me of the book 'Think And Grow Rich' by a man named Napoleon Hill.

The story Rickbtold about running a chop shop, getting caught and suing the police is a Netflix, Amazon, Hulu or starz series..... 50 cent and Courtney Kemp needs to connect with him.
Nice interview but sheesh why come at him harder than the people who was sober enough to stop they-self before they ever took the drug its not his responsibility to do that i get were u come from but our ppl been on it before him and after him 🤦🏾♂️
I was at USP Lompoc with Rick. Solid dude. Even with that life sentence his mind was always on hustling. I watched him clean cells. He was trying to get an album and a movie done. And that was way back in 1997.
Is this good cop bad cop? Bcus Mecca is taking everything personally. Salute to Rick for taking the hate on the chin& not letting it affect him but that 4 eyes man ruined this episode .
Ross life story is remarkable but he is not a good teller of his story. John singleton had to have reasons not to keep him on as a consultant . Nonetheless I see he has to work on getting a black PR agent. He truly needs to get out how corruption in government was wild. And how it set the stage for how things operate now
Because Rick Ross needs to be held accountable for his assistance in the detriment of 1000s of black bloodlines. He tries to speak as if he didn’t run a 900 million dollar poison business directed at his own people.
1 of the illest interviews yet…but I think it should have gotten deeper on the criminality side, n I love everybody. If we gone talk crime (especially non violent) give us that real
Never be judgmental if you don't know the person. especially not if your job is interviewing people. Instead of what could have been a wonderful conversation, I'm looking at a judgmental person who thinks he already knows everything about someone. Mecca please find something else to do.
Mr Ricky it's Good to see you. I pray you get your identity bag because I know for a fact that is your name I lived in Los Angeles for 35 years before I moved back south and I know you are the real Ricky Ross
I’m a teacher. I’ve been saying it and writing about it since I was in college, poverty can be a learning disability. I spend all kinds of money on snacks because most of the students that give me problems are hungry and tired. It’s a lot. Most students who can’t read never learn or are incapable of decoding. Early childhood education with consistent attendance is crucial. Also, most interventions are parent initiated. Teachers can flag students but unless they’re a severe behavioral problem they get pushed to the back of the line. In most districts parent initiated evaluations have to be done in 30-60 days. If you don’t advocate for your child, they won’t get what they need.
