Rapper Memphis Bleek and his Roc-A-Fella crew star in this gritty urban crime drama based on actual events. Determined to make big cash, local Philly thug Beans (Beanie Siegel) forms a gang he dubs the A.B.M. (All 'Bout Money) and declares that all his rivals better "get down or lay down." Bleek, Jay-Z, Omillio Sparks, Freeway, and Damon Dash are some of his friends and enemies along the way. Beans earns plenty of cash, and a nice home in the suburbs for his family, but like all movie gangsters he doesn't know when to quit. The body count rises, his old lady (Sundy Carter) gets kidnapped, and incarceration threatens when a surviving victim decides to rat Beans out to the cops. First-time director Abdul Malik Abbot smartly eschews any morality, romance or phony glamour in favor of a practical, no-nonsense, sex-and-violence approach. The film's real strength, however, is the naturalistic performances of the actors and their ease with the quotable, expletive-rich dialogue. STATE PROPERTY should delight viewers schooled in rap music and gangster films, but others may find themselves needing subtitles to decipher the thick slang. It's filmed on digital video, blown up to 35mm for theatrical release. Beanie Sigel, Damon Dash, Jay-Z, Memphis ...

$10.05

This is thug filmmaking at its best courtesy of Damon Dash and his Roc-A-Fella crew, with Dash directing, writing, and co-starring as a "cakeaholic" (money addict) on the quest for international greatness in the Philadelphia drug-dealing biz. Beans (Beanie Sigel) is his main competition, but he's in jail for crimes perpetrated in the first film (ironically, Sigel himself went to jail for gun-related offences after shooting of the film was completed). Fellow inmate Loco (N.O.R.E.) promises to get Beans sprung and hook him up with some "kingpin paper" and a "sweet connect." Viewers who don't know this means money and a drug supplier may be a bit baffled by the film's Philly slang-enriched dialogue, but Beans' narration fills in a lot of the gaps. Another plus, there is a plethora of guest stars like Kayne West, Freeway, Mariah Carey, Sade, Ole Dirty Bastard, and Jimmy "Handyman" Jones. A fast-paced, violent, and simultaneously funny film, this is better than the first, with the improvisatory feeling of a low-budget 1970s blaxploitation classic crossed with a guest-star-packed hip-hop party record. It's got loads of cinematic style with freeze frames, split screens, and nods to gangster classics like SCARFACE (1983), GOODFELLAS (1990), SNATCH (2000), and CITY OF GOD (2002). Foxy Roselyn Sanchez is the D.A. who sends Beans up the river; ...

Life Of Rayful Edmund: Rise And Fall DVD (2005)

Real Rick Ross Story review

$9.85

The fabulous life of crime led by notorious crack dealer Rayful Edmund was characterized by champagne, women, and sales that reached $70 million a month. It was 1987, the crack epidemic was at its peak, and 90% of the Columbian cocaine on the street was supplied by Edmund's operation. All this was already accomplished by the time this Washington, D.C.-based entrepreneur was only 22. Taking frequent trips to Las Vegas, New York, and L.A. on both business and pleasure, at home Edmund presided over an organization that included over 150 "employees." His extravagance knew no limits, and though he is reviled by the mainstream as a criminal, to some, he is a hero who rose above his humble origins through ingenuity and sheer force of will. See how it all went down in this docu-drama narrated by popular D.C. radio personality Osei. The true king of cocaine. At his peak he sold 2,000 keys a week, reaped gross profits of $70 million a month, and ran an operation with over 150 soldiers to support him. In his life champagne flowed like water, trips to Vegas, New York, and Los Angeles were the ...
