Boston George, born George Jung, served 20 years in prison for crimes committed during his reign as a notorious cocaine kingpin. Being credited for smuggling 90% percent of America's cocaine through the 70's to the 80's and ultimately paying for it in 1994, the famed drug dealer's story was recreated for the big screen in the 2001 film "Blow." In this sit-down with DJ Vlad, Boston George talks about why he feels guns and sugar are worse than drugs, Blacks who've been sentenced the same time as him for small amounts of crack, and America's overpopulated prison system.

(Reuters) U.S. President Barack Obama formally endorsed Hillary Clinton's White House bid on Thursday and called for the Democratic Party to unite behind her after a protracted battle with Bernie Sanders for the party nomination.
Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee, said it "means the world" to her that Obama has her back in a bruising campaign for the Nov. 8 election.
The endorsement increases pressure on Sanders, a U.S. senator from Vermont, to bow out of the race and lend his support to Clinton so that the party can focus on defeating Donald Trump, the Republican candidate.
"It is absolutely a joy and an honor that President Obama and I over the years have gone from fierce competitors to true friends," Clinton told Reuters in an interview.
"I know how hard this job can be. That’s why I know she’ll be so good at it." —@POTUS pic.twitter.com/RDjefd0t9f
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) June 9, 2016
After an unexpectedly tough battle against Sanders' challenge from the left, former first lady Clinton made history when she reached the number of delegates needed to win the party nomination this week. That made her the first woman to lead a major U.S. party as its White House candidate.
Obama, who enjoys strong approval ratings after nearly eight years in office, will appear with Clinton on the campaign trail next week in Wisconsin, her campaign said.
The pair were opponents in the 2008 Democratic presidential primary race which Obama won but they buried their rivalry and she served as his secretary of state for four years. Clinton is the 2016 candidate who the White House believes will best safeguard Obama's legacy.
"I don't think there's ever been someone so qualified to hold this office," Obama said of Clinton in a video. "I'm with her. I am fired up, and I cannot wait to get out there and campaign for Hillary."
Trump assailed the endorsement on Twitter: "He wants four more years of Obama—but nobody else does!”
Obama just endorsed Crooked Hillary. He wants four more years of Obama—but nobody else does!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 9, 2016
Clinton's campaign tweeted a brash response: "Delete your account."

Sanders, who galvanized young voters with his calls for more social equality and measures to rein in Wall Street, has been reluctant to concede the race, despite concerns among leading Democrats that continuing party divisions could hamper Clinton's efforts to beat Trump.
Obama and other senior Democrats are seeking a delicate balance between the need to unite behind Clinton in the battle against Trump while not alienating Sanders and his supporters.
Sanders met with Obama at the White House on Thursday, and said afterward he would work with Clinton to defeat Trump. Senator Harry Reid, the top Democrat in the Senate, later met separately with Sanders and said the Vermont lawmaker had accepted that Clinton was the nominee.
Sanders told reporters, however, that he would stay in the race to compete in the final Democratic primary vote in Washington, D.C., on June 14.
Obama recalled the party unity that followed his prolonged primary battle against Clinton in 2008.
"Secretary Clinton and Senator Sanders may have been rivals during this primary, but they're both patriots who love this country and they share a vision for an America that we all believe in," Obama said in the video.
Nearly half of Americans in a recent Reuters/Ipsos survey approved of Obama's handling of his presidency, a high mark for a president at this point in the job. Among Democrats, his approval rating was 82.3 percent, though 84.3 percent of Republicans disapproved of his leadership.

Justin Bieber wound up in an all around out fight with a guy outside of his hotel in Cleveland Wednesday, June 8.
According to TMZ, the pint-sized singer was in town to catch game 3 of the NBA championship series between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers.
Things got out of hand when he got back to his hotel. When footage of the fight starts Justin is seen arguing with a guy much bigger than him. The guy looks like he lightly jabs at Bieber, who then starts swinging wildly.
Bieber later posted a photo with the caption: "Not a scratch on this pretty boy."
I think the pop star got lucky that the guy he was fighting with didn't seem to want to hurt him because the singer might have gotten messed up badly otherwise. Bieber did show heart though.
Check out the videos above and let us know what you think.

Future took to Twitter to respond to the $10 million lawsuit filed against him by Rocko and his label A1 Recordings.
The Atlanta rapper had a hard time accepting he had been sued by someone he considered to be from the street and used the opportunity to take shots at his former friend,
"Call them people & tellum u was jus playing Brodie," Future Hendrix wrote. "Ion want my nigga lookin like no baby momma. Real street nigga went to the court house, how did it feel when u signed the papers???? My dog gave a statement."

Rocko says he didn't have any other option other than to seek a legal remedy to the problem.
"LORD KNOWS I HAVEN'T SEEN A COURTHOUSE IN AGES! THAT'S WHAT LAWYERS ARE FOR!" he wrote. "OLD HOMIE OF MINE ONCE TOLD ME JUST LET THE LAWYERS HANDLE IT."

As we previously reported, Rocko filed a $10 million breach of contract lawsuit against Future, alleging the rapper signed a deal with A1 Recordings in 2011. As part of the agreement Future's first six albums would be recorded for the label.
Rocko claims that the "Wicked" rapper tried to circumvent the contract by negotiating backdoor deals with A1's distributor, Epic Records, without his knowledge, then failed to pay him his 25% cut from those multi-million dollar advances.
He's seeking proper compensation, plus a share of Future's earnings from endorsements and touring.

It wasn't a pretty sight as the right handed rapper uncorked a ball that sailed high and far wide of the catcher.
Big Snoop Dogg took it in stride and showed a sense of humor when he later messaged 50 Cent on Twitter.

In December 2015 we reported that Rita Ora had filed a lawsuit under California Labor Code Section 2855, better known as the "seven-year rule," against Roc Nation seeking to have her contract voided.
The British singer and her legal team filed the complaint on December 17 in Los Angeles Superior Court.
Ora stated in the lawsuit that she was "self-funding her promotional television appearances, recording costs and video projects."
She further claimed that as Roc Nation expanded into sports management and Jay Z started the music streaming service, Tidal, her career was put on the back burner.
When the label switched its distribution partner from Sony to Universal, Ora was left behind.
"When Rita signed, Roc Nation and its senior executives were very involved with her as an artist," the complaint read. "As Roc Nation's interests diversified, there were fewer resources available and the company suffered a revolving door of executives. Rita's remaining supporters at the label left or moved on to other activities, to the point where she no longer had a relationship with anyone at the company. Between Sony's limited economic return from its orphaned relationship with Roc Nation and Sony's indirect relationship with Rita, Rita is caught in a political quagmire of dysfunction."
Roc Nation counter-sued a month later, saying Ora was in breach of her contract for not delivering four more albums following the 2012 release of her debut project titled "Ora," which the label claimed cost $2.3 million to record and promote.
Things have since been ironed out.
Billboard reports that Ora has been released from her Roc Nation contract and has signed a new deal with Warner Music.
