BMF

Executive produced by Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and inspired by true events, BMF is a dramatic series about two brothers from South Detroit who built the most prominent drug trafficking and money laundering enterprise in U.S. history. It's the 1980s, and teenager Demetrius "Meech" Flenory (played by his son Demetrius "Lil' Meech" Flenory Jr.) and his younger brother Terry, a.k.a. "Southwest T" (Da'Vinchi) are good-hearted boys living with their hard-working and religious parents Charles and Lucille (Russell Hornsby and Michole Briana White, respectively) and their younger sister Nicole (Laila Pruitt). But their desire to rise up from poverty and enjoy a lifestyle they will never earn by working hard at regular jobs is what motivates them to sell cocaine on the streets. By 1989 the young and successful drug dealers form the Black Mafia Family, and 11 years later they each head up a massive drug distribution network on both sides of the country. To serve as a front for the business, Demetrius also creates a hip-hop label, and begins promoting some high-profile artists. It's a life that brings the enormous wealth and success they've always wanted, but eventually the government catches up to them.
