About this product

Product Information

In the early 1990s, Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory and his brother, Terry "Southwest T," rose up from the slums of Detroit to build one of the largest cocaine empires in American history: the Black Mafia Family. They socialized with music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, did business with New York's king of bling Jacob "The Jeweler" Arabo, and built allegiances with rap superstars Young Jeezy and Fabolous. Yet even as BMF was attracting celebrity attention, its crew members struck fear in a city. When the brothers began clashing in 2003, the flashy and beloved Big Meech risked it all on a shot at legitimacy in the music industry. At the same time, utilizing a high-stakes wiretap operation, the feds inched toward their goal of destroying the Flenory's empire and ending the reign of a crew suspected in the sale of thousands of kilos of cocaine -- and a half-dozen unsolved murders.

USPS Ground Advantage shipment, black bubble-wrap package. All cards were in penny sleeves, in taped toploaders, taped to a piece of cardboard for extra security. Everything looks great! Awesome cards. Seller was also SUPER helpful and communicative before purchase, answering questions for me and being very cordial. Would definitely buy from again (and probably will in the near future, haha). Thank you so much unclestevescardsbydan! - 1/5

    One of my best books in my library.

    Awesome book, gave an honest perspective about really how the underworld works. Before you judge, read this book. Everything is never and I mean never black and white, there is always some grey in between.
