Freeway Ricky Ross expressed regret over not having the chance to guide the late rapper Nipsey Hussle on how to "be rich in the ghetto." Ross emphasized that living significantly and with financial stability in a tough neighborhood like South Central Los Angeles requires both respect and the ability to be respectful. He explained that Nipsey, despite his reputation, might not have completely grasped this nuance, leading to potentially fatal misunderstandings.

Ross highlighted the tragic incident with Eric Holder as a misstep where a simpler, more positive interaction could have possibly defused the situation. According to Ross, extending a helping hand rather than engaging in controversial dialogues could align with the rapper's initial purpose of uplifting the community. Freeway Ricky believes that these street dynamics underscore the peril of disrespect, showing that money and fame don't exempt anyone from respecting the intricate rules governing street respect and relationships.
