The fact that a lot of people don't know that he is actually British and as a very strong British accent is amazing to me and proves just how good of an actor is
Did what by hisself ? He would have died if Leon ain't kill the dude who robbed the dude who robbed him. Man he needed everyone in his circle when he couldn't give ppl what they wanted cause he wanted to be the boss is what messed him up
He gave that Leon's David Ruffin "YALL CAN'T FIRE ME, I MADE YALL ASSES, DO YOU HEAR ME, DO YOU HEAR ME?, YALL CAN'T.... DO ME LIKE THIS, YOU UNGRATEFUL SONABITCHES!" 😂😂

I tried to do shit the right way, went to the other side. Know what I learned? The game's rigged. It ain't made for people like us, so you know what? I'm rewriting the rules. -Franklin Saint The late legendary John Singleton's left us with the addictive, “binge worthy”, crime drama “Snowfall”, which debuted 5 July 2017 on FX. British actor, Damson Idris puts his entire heart and soul into Franklin Saint. Franklin is a character based on the real life of Author and ex drug trafficker, “freeway” Rick Ross! The “real” Rick Ross (not to be confused with the rapper), is best known for the drug empire he established in Los Angeles, California, in the early to mid 1980s. He was sentenced to life in prison, though the sentence was shortened on appeal and Rick Ross was released in 2009.
That whole game rigged shit a cop out nowadays. You got the internet. Instead of learning shit about their people and watching their lives maybe more people should focus on their own and things will get better….no matter how bad you think it is
@@ErvinMitchell Facts. Folks glorify Rick because he presents his own story as a triumph over "the system". As if anyone is going to make themselves the bad guy in their own story. It is not now nor has it ever been remotely possible to run a drug empire without murdering people and paying to have ppl murdered. It is guaranteed this man had his hand in killings of ppl that looked like him and a good number of innocent ppl no doubt caught strays when someone he sent to kill someone else missed the target. Ppl think it was unfair for him to get life for selling drugs. What's really unfair is for him to serve no time for anybody he had a hand in killing. Ppl act like if the drugs weren't illegal dealers wouldn't get arrested and wouldn't need to kill as much. We already have legal drugs. Rick didn't use his money to open a pharmacy to sell drug legally. If what he sold had been legalized it would've been regulated and he would've sold organs, guns, stolen goods or trafficked humans instead. Alcohol was already legal. Cigarettes already legal. They sold illegal drugs to avoid dealing with government regulated markets.
When I first watched this show I fuckin called it, I was like I think this about freeway Rick ross from Hoover in LA. Even kinda got someone with the same body frame as Rick ross tbh
How did he sell drugs because he couldn’t get in college and have to teach himself to read in prison ? Doesn’t make sense…that’s the major difference between Franklin and RR , Franklin could’ve done anything , Ricky played the hand that was dealt …character deviated from RR from episode 1…education changes trajectory and the motivations for the character
It is truly an exceptional show. Seasons 1 & 2 were great, and the show got better in season 3 and better again in season 4. The show jumped the shark in season 5, but it was still enthralling. The 6th and final season was crazy. This show was a wild ride.

He started selling drugs because he couldn't get into a decent college but taught himself how to read in prison. Shouldn't a person already know how to read before trying to go to college?
I always told myself the difference between Walter White and Franklin is that Walter accepted he was the bad guy and managed to pull himself out of the dark, while Franklin kept thinking he was right for everything he was doing, and so he was far too gone.
Franklin saint was not based on freeway Rick Ross,that narrative was created by Rick Ross when he tried to take credit.Rick Ross is “reaching” and there are some similarities but it’s also a lot of differences and Franklins story could be based on any drug lord of the time especially on the west coast.nobody agreed or confirm freeway rick Ross’s assumption

I think everything you are talking about is based on Gary Webbs reporting. We just finished up his video not long ago czcams.com/video/qvykdF-BdqY/video.html
That’s Capp it was based on the legendary “Octopus” Harry -O… Rick is a snitch who ratted on 42-46 people during his trial . Public records. John Singleton would never give a snitch credit on any screen, movie nor series
It’s public record ,Floyd Money May was talking about this after he fell out with him . Rick “Rat” Ross tried to get him to bring him to Al Hayman . Boss of all Bosses. Look him up
He started seling drugs "cos he couldn't get into a decent college" OK so am I right in saying you must have been a decent student in high school , to even seek a "decent" college? Therefore, to be decent in high school you must know how to read ? But your video says he learnt to read in prison ??? So he went to prison first, learned how to read went to high school , then couldn't get into a decent college so became a hustler 😂😂😂 Don't make any sense..
I'm assuming you know little about Rick Ross, purely based on the confusion portrayed. He did learn to read in prison, those are HIS words look it up. Back in the 70s and 80s it wasn't hard for a blk person to make it through school without being able to read on their respective grade level, especially if they played sports - like Rick did. I hope this helps.
