For those that don't know the real story behind the name Rick Ross, this DVD documentary is the story of one of the richest drug-dealers in American history, not the Miami rapper. Credited with helping bring the crack cocaine boom to Los Angeles streets, Ross is one of the most notorious drug dealers in the history of the United States. FROM THE BACK OF THE DVD: Ricky Donnell Ross aka. Freeway Rick catapulted the crack cocaine explosion of the early eighties. Rick was considered illiterate by school standards, but would prove to be brilliant in America's underworld. From the mid-eighties to early nineties, Rick would make an astonishing $300,000 to $1 million per day. Alleged by Rick to be backed by the US government, his drug sales purportedly financed wars in third world countries. Witness this compelling tale that twists and turns from the streets of LA, Texas, New York and all points in between straight to America's White House. This true life saga captures how a black illiterate man 'politicked' in the streets amongst our country's politicians.
