Theo

Ralo has been through a lot in recent years, and now that he’s officially released from his halfway house, he can move on to bigger things. Additionally, he recently announced that he purchased an entire block in Atlanta comprised of various commercial properties, and also shared his plans to build the first Vine City mosque in Georgia history. In the Atlanta rapper’s Instagram post on the topic, he specifically emphasized the importance of not having to go back to his old lifestyles and problems now that he’s found personal and financial freedom. Overall, it’s a very encouraging and hard-earned story, and one that will hopefully bring him a lot of fulfillment, joy, and opportunity in the future.

“People sent me to federal prison, took everything from me, and left my family out there with NOTHING,” Ralo began his Instagram caption. “I put this shit back together legally. I’ll never have to sell another piece of dope again in my life. I became the owner of a restaurant, a barbershop, a hair salon, and a clothing store. Allah blessed me to open the first #VineCityMosque in Atlanta history.”

Ralo shares his financial freedoms and his initiative for a mosque

“I will never need to rent another condo now that I own dozens right across from Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta,” Ralo’s Instagram post continues. “Go watch Ralo Chapter 38 | Hood Hero #OutNow on YouTube to see how I put it all together. My goal is to connect with people and do it in every state. If you want to donate to the cause or help the mosque, go to FamericaNews.Com #KingAkh.”

Ralo has also recently stood up for many of the values ​​he continues to uphold from his past life, albeit in very different circumstances. “There’s no way Shawty would have taken a stand against his childhood friend,” he said of Trontavious Stephens’ recent testimony in the Young Thug and YSL RICO case. “I’d rather die a thousand deaths than do something stupid like that.” We’ll see what other principles, initiatives, and developments the 29-year-old enjoys in his freedom.
