Nice… so he’ll talk to the white folks about his past… but gets upset when one of his own asks him about it:

For the first time, Ross talks about his past life as a corrections officer – an opportunity, he says, to “wash my hands” after his best friend was sentenced to 10 years for trafficking ? and heroin:

“This was my best friend, who I ate peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches with, and pork and beans with, my buddy, my partner, my number-one dude. Suddenly I’m talking to him over federal phone calls. Hearing the way it was building, I knew I couldn’t take nothing for granted,” says Ross. “My ? ’s father was a huge influence on my life, too . . . He was the one who was like, ‘Yo, go get a job somewhere, man. Go be a fireman. Or go be a ? corrections officer. Just go sit down somewhere.”

    He wanted to put the blacks behind bars and than rap about him doing the crimes they did. He works for the whites to get rid of the ? who continue to destroy civilization.

    Why anyone gives a ? how another man makes his money is beyond me. He did the interview so he had to answer somehow. But when will we stop caring so much about other peoples past. It aint like we dont have our own skeletons. Dude has a family to feed like many others..And he aint a C.O. now...so why does it matter?

    I had a job when I was 19. Not in law enforcement. But havin a job aint the issue. But the whole thing just affects him as the type of rapper he is. No other rapper with crime content has such an anti crime background. It just does affect him. Its just the way it is. But not enough for the casual listener or fan to not listen to his songs.

    where is the follow up to this. I mean they didn't ask him why he choose to be a CO? I mean if seeing your man get locked was the real reason you got out the game then why not just say that to begin with. And he's also implying that he was done with hustling at that age b/c of what happened to his friend. So I'm really lost on when he was supposedly in the streets like that. And what's up now with his man and his man's father that was a positive influence?

    oh well

    We all know why he didn't admit it from the jump....same reason why Emenim didn't admit to the racist tapes when they came out.

    When you see everything you worked for about to go down the drain and the possibility that you might lose your career you might not be as forthcoming in that state of duress as you would be on a day at the beach.


    The streets let it be known they don't have an issue with it and the rappers from the streets don't have an issue with it but it's still a major issue of concern for people from outside or communities who don't come from our environment. That last fact is the most interesting thing about this played out saga.

    You see, that's the problem with the IC: If a poster LIKES an artist - they can do NO WRONG. If a poster DOES'NT LIKE an artist they can do NO RIGHT.

    EVERYONE knows that this is a LOSS for Ross. Stop trying to spin it into something acceptable.

    I'm un-biased, right in the middle. I like some of his music, but I can admit that this whole episode has been some fake ? .
