Great episode makes you really wonder about how backwards some are when they worship and put on pedestal crack dealers of that era on how much money they were getting. Materialism at all costs even if the way of acquiring that money destroys your own community.
This episode mde feel a bit sympathetic to "crackheads" even the term is a pejorative when you see a character like Mel who did a 360 from a girl going away to college and now she is an addict. It also dispels the narrative that a lot of these crack dealers did it out of survival as if there were no other career opportunities but this series shows that they did out of pure materialism at the expense of the well being of their own communities.
I knew that was a lie,you don't make the type of money they was making and get to act like it was for "survival".
I think if anybody dies it'll be jerome.
Jerome is the comedy relief,I hope not. Might as well kill off his mama or pops. Really no role for his mama anyway since she so with the shyt all of a sudden
And to think,I actually felt bad for Franklin when he was just selling a little to support the household and mama cut em off
But he went from that,to a full blown kingpin ruining entire neighborhoods smh. This show seems to kind of combine stories of multiple kingpins and not just Freeway. Then again I guess alot of them have similar stories. Seems like a little Christopher Coke and Felix Mitchell in here as well.
Know where to find another copy?
?
