Snowfall Wasn't Really Rick Ross's Story
The Gangster Chronicles discuss the similarities between Rick Ross and Snowfall's main character "Franklin Saint". Let us know what you think in the comments.
John Singleton's Snowfall was a groundbreaking series that told the story of the crack epidemic in 1980s South Central Los Angeles. But was it really Rick Ross's story? In this interview, we hear from a local who lived through the era and experienced the devastating effects of the crack epidemic firsthand.
John Singleton's Legacy
John Singleton was a visionary filmmaker who gave many people their first big break in the film industry. He was also the creator of the hit series Snowfall, which tells the story of the crack epidemic in South Central Los Angeles. Sadly, Singleton passed away before the series was completed, but his legacy lives on in the show.
Maintaining the Integrity of the Script
The show's producers have done a good job of maintaining the integrity of the script, according to MC Eiht and Steele. They have also reached out to people who lived through the era to ensure that the story is accurately represented. This includes WC and CJ Mack, who are both involved in the script supervision process.
The Real Rick Ross
The real Rick Ross was not happy with the show, as it seemed to be based on his life story. Freeway Rick Ross was a notorious drug dealer in South Central Los Angeles in the 1980s, and he was not given much credit for his role in the story. This is not surprising, as the crack epidemic had a devastating effect on the black community.
The Influence of Crack
MC Eiht remembers what it was like to grow up in the era of the crack epidemic. He saw how it changed people, from those with jobs and nice cars to drug addicts. It was also lucrative for young people, as they could make a lot of money selling drugs.
Conclusion
The crack epidemic had a devastating effect on the black community in South Central Los Angeles. John Singleton's Snowfall is a powerful representation of this era, and the producers have done a good job of maintaining the integrity of the script. The real Rick Ross was not happy with the show, as it seemed to be based on his life story. However, it is important to remember that he was not the only one dealing drugs in South Central Los Angeles, and he was not given much credit for his role in the story.
