As much history as the Supreme Team has in the streets this Doc had too much filler. I was born and raised in South Jamaica, Queens (On South Road, right around the corner from where Edward Byrnes was killed) so knowing the true history left me highly disappointed in this Documentary. I was pretty bored with it.

No new information in it other than Prince having a 50/50 chance of getting out.

If the doc does numbers I can see 50 throwin a couple shots coz they kinda played him a little in this shyt.

Overall I thought it was too long but it was cool to hear the thought process of the people involved during this era

I enjoyed it. No this didn’t glamorize their lifestyle. Of course sh!t looks exciting briefly when dudes is getting crazy money. But in the documentary when you see phone calls coming from those same dudes and the caller ID says FEDERAL PRISON, no, that’s not glamorous even a little bit.

Wow Pappy Mason must be Top 10 in all-time stupidest crimes. Every drug dealer should hate this dude.

Excellent documentary. For anybody thinking they “glorified” the lifestyle part 3 really puts the consequences they all faced into perspective. Prince been in prison for THIRTY TWO YEARS! Supreme will likely NEVER be a free man again. Two of his top generals did 19 and 30 years respectively. His close friend was killed over some stupid street beef. Preme had a chance to go legit and turned it down over pride and ego, squandering his second chance and what could have been a promising movie career. Every single one of the living members of the Preme team they interviewed expressed remorse over the life they led and how their actions ultimately contributed to destruction of the very community they loved.


There was NOTHING glorifying about this documentary. Nas and his producers did an excellent job; he’s two for two as a director and 3/3 as a producer (the Smoke documentary from last year was great too)

Didn't Nas also do that Video Music Box doc? That shyt was excellent.

50 ties into the Supreme story I feel like it would've been a disservice to not include him in it. Maybe they asked him to tell his side he declined:manny:. It's not like they didn't say anything that people didn't know already. I'm sure Nas or somebody from Mass Appeal team ran that shyt by 50.

Respect to that Supreme Team OG who didn't want to be idolized, and acknowledge the degredation they cause the community:francis:

...prosecutor brother lived right among their FUKKERY and wasn't shook of the repercussions:ohhh:

LIG (Queen's Story:fire:/Accident Murderers/The Don/Where's The Love) is the perfect soundtrack to this doc:myman:
