Freeway Ricky: I Spent About Half a Million in Legal Fees to Fight My Case
Ойын-сауық
Known for starting a lucrative drug trafficking empire in Los Angeles, Freeway Ricky tells DJ Vlad he spent about half-a-million in legal fees for his case and for "friends" who ended up testifying against him. "I didn't have to break the bank." He says in order to keep a close tab on people who were indicted in his case, he offered to pay for their lawyers, "Each one of those guys cost me [$40,000]," he said. Although his plan was to use their information for his case, he says the plan later backfired once they agreed to testify.
Watch the full interview above.

yup era yeah I agree, I've watched dozens of djvlad interviews and he's simply trying to get a satisfactory answer... when answers people give don't really add up he's trying to get info without giving off the impression "I don't believe you"... he's also trying to balance talking "street talk" and being eloquent or at least cogent and cohesive.
This dude treated selling drugs as a business. He motivated his employees, did business with his rivals and kept his enemies at bay. I treat this interview like a business course. I'm actually learning some business skills from this. He is totally different from the idiotic drug dealers I see nowadays. He knew not to be flashy unlike the idiots today who cant wait to post pics of money on instagram. I guess all this explains why he was so successful. He ran his ish like a business

Vlad keep interviewing this man, love his interviews
Are any of these interviews available in one cut?
Vlad has a totally wrong preconceived notion about the drug game, selling drugs and he’s talking to the guy who basically wrote the rule book on the game and he still won’t accept what he’s saying!! When someone is trying to teach you just shut up and listen.
Look into his eyes when he's talking. Now imagine him on the other side of a deal table. Those eyes cut. Sizing vlad up from the jump
so glad he's doing so good! And he's able to make legal money because he's a real brother he will reach out for his family and friends around him there's not many like that left hopefully he is an example for the future! I went through that same shit that he did I'm not from LA but I used to go to LA to cop and hang out all the time I got family there and the problem is they got young people involved with gangs that got closets full of dope but no real access to doing anything legitimately except for rap or Athletics so people in the hood look up to Pimps & Players and Drug dealers. My dad is black and Mexican and my mom's German and I got my mom's last name so at least I don't have trouble getting job interviews at high paying jobs until they see me then if they don't want to hire me at least I have a chance to talk my way into a job. Bcuz I've worked at places where I've seen them throw away the resumes of ppl with Black or Hispanic sounding names and laugh about it.
True boss right here. Smart man not some ignorant character
