*Is the true story of how crack cocaine, a Los Angeles gang, and the Reagan White house mixed together in the city of angels about to finally be told? It looks like it.

According to Deadline.com, Freeway Rick Ross has teamed with Randall Emmett and George Furla the producers of the smash hit series “Power” on Starz, optioning Ross’ autobiographical book with plans to create a television series.

We have to wonder is 50 Cent next to jump on board? Also producing are Zachery Bryan, and Emmy nominated producers Antonio Moore, and Neil Harrington.

EURweb got these exclusive statements from Moore & Ross:

Ross stated: “I’m excited to finally get the true story told. It’s time people know what happened. I didn’t want to do it with anybody unless they let me be involved as Emmett Furla is doing.” Emmy nominated producer 

Antonio Moore added: “This is a story that needs to be told first hand, its time for our production team to tell the truth about about how those boys in the hoods across America were used by the Reagan administration to fund a war, then mass incarcerated at levels not seen anywhere in modern history. The hope is this ends up being the definitive LA story.”
