Wassup yall. .glad to see a lot of excitement about this project.
Although media outlets like to focus on Mac Dre, this episode will have a strong emphasis on the 16 core romper room room members. We will try to feature all the romper room cats that are currently out, and hopefully some that are locked up. I've been in contact with a lot of the cats everyone here has mentioned - J-Diggs, Kilo, Big Dant and Coolio.
This story will have a strong emphasis on the Vallejo, everyone's lives before the bank robberies, how everyone went to prison, and what happened after Dre's murder.
For those that can't wait until November, the Ghostride the Whip documentary has a section about the romper room gang and what happened in Fresno when J-Diggs, Kilo and Dre were arrested. This dvd comes out July 29th.
BET just got picke up in England, so these shows will have international exposure - 10's of millions of people watching. The Bay Area doesn't get a lot of chance to get this type of spotlight, so everyone needs to support these projects.
I'm also working on another American Gangster episode on a major Bay Area crime figure. More info on that soon.
