Why that nikka Korey ain't fight back. I understand the first fight cause he was young as shyt in there with them grown men both after he kept getting switched to other jails why didn't he join a cliq like his man did with the Muslims

He was the only one that went to a grown up jail as a kid which kind of made him food.

Also his mans Yusef was already a Muslim and came from a Muslim family. So it only made sense for him to click up with the “brothers”.

Yall forget he went to prison as a sex offender in a high profile case where he "admitted" on tape to rape.

They wouldve killed him had he not stayed in solitary.

Can't lie...DMX video's being played in the early 90s almost took me out of it.

I know the song fit the situation, but yea there were other songs in the 90s they could have played. Only nitpick.

I don't know how people could binge this, this was a rough watch. Need white folk to watch this more than black and brown because they need to see how the system wrongfully convicting people. They put children in prison with zero evidence. It's so heartbreaking knowing shyt like this happens all across America. I was ready to fight so many times watching this.

SN: As big as Jay Z is, his music isn't used enough enough in media. Ray in the Pelle Pelle with the beeper, U Don't Know blasting in the background Only to go back in prison because of the step mom

I've been awhile white people with these type of films on the look on their faces isn't regret/sadness/remorse if I had to put in words their expression it would probably be along the lines of "fukkK!!! I wish I could get out of here, dammit why did I have to show up today of all days"

Even the white women won't get emotional or cry but turn on a film of some wild lions being butchered her ass will be on some

Reason I bring this up is because of a post saying white people should watch this, and I do agree they should but hell look at our current situation a majority of them don't seem to give a fukk NOW watching a film based on the 80s/90s won't have an impact if they shrug off our children in the present being murdered and treated unfairly.

I had to watch the series again. shyt is so damn frustrating. Especially with Korey. The brother who played Korey deserves an Emmy and Golden Globe for this role. He killed it!
