[tango1290]

@the24th1 do you think i am the only person in the world who have him as a idol ? x)

[the24th1]

@tango1290 no thhere is plently of people that have a good life and dont realize it and worship a man that didnt have anything and that went to extreme and destructive paths just to get it...honestly, u sould like a youngbull that dont get enough attention at home by his parents

[spites1]

dumb nigs LOL

[RuflessRecords]

Horrible name by the way, his mom undoubtedly failed finger painting.

The American Gangster episode about "Rayful" was filled with lies about how much DC contributes compared to how much the district gets in handouts.

The state that contributes the least in taxes for the amount of tax dollars it gets, is not a state, it's the District of Columbia, the worst handout place in America, propped up totally by handouts. The people who live there contribute shi'ite. Doc tried tosay DC gotjipped

[absgawd]

The only thing I don't get is in the american gangster episode...they say his mom got 24 years. I thought she was initially sentenced to 14 years, so, I don't know where 24 years can from. Also, during that time was there the 85% maximum minimum rule for federal convicts? If I remember correctly when rayful snitched they reduced his moms sentence to 90 days and that was it! I

I know she was released in june 98....i wonder if she would have been released in september 98 if he aint snitch.

[MultiPlayaaa]

it was charles cosby who was rays connect

[xOLL13x]

i cant take those bad acting scenes seriously

[bigred4464]

A lot of you guys are worshiping a drug dealer! Rayful Edmond was not Jesus. He was a ruthless killer who liked to have sex with guys!! So that makes him gay! He would turn down pussy for a dude any day of the week, and he sold drugs. He was no hero..!

[STUNTNJB88]

The true kings aren't talked about..its the people he was supplied by..And i GUARANTEE they aint black. Look at Mexicans. yeah he had "150" soldiers. but The Zetas are an army. Who runs them is the real king.. Not downing this man cause thats a real hustler just saying real recognize real.

[MegaDoomkid]

mobb deep

[JOHNEY38]

all you bitch asses shut the fuck up

[WINKO1981]

to yonexmann how in the fuck can you justify real...tall T shirts, balloon jeans, bullshit...put yourself in those shoes and go smack yourself, you probably couldnt fuck wit the '10 game...do your research first slim...Whats good DC

[bighouse1185]

Yall cats are wack for glorifing this shit. The real kingpins or these white craker mofo who bring this shit into our community and we become them dummiez to start selling it trying to rise to the top. When minority making millions off this shit there just sitting making us do the dirty work. The crackers profit is billions.So when they see that where getting to big, thats when they send the feds in on our asses. Thats why its called "the game" Now today its called "the trap" Think about it.

[steviebreezie17ezie]

@bighouse1185 white haven't sold drugs since the 70s that excuse is tired. its the mexicans if you were on your shit you would know.

[westlaclede]

when are they coming out with the wayne perry movie?

[mgordon980]

that's my dad at 1:22 haha

[yonextman007]

I guess the guys in D.C. got something to strive for now. Get money, become a snitch, and then go in witness protection. Man, what a tough guy! Yall cats don't even know "real."

[MrShad1532]

@yonextman007 fact is snithcin goes on everywhere every major city has a kingpin who ratted, think about it now wayne perry was the real gangsta he never flipped 4 the man and hes doin life in supermax no visits at all..at the end of the day u wanna aspire to live a positive life style cuz trust aint nobody tuff when u lookin at life in a box ask wayne or rayful i bet if they could turn the hands back they would rather b average joe's...freedom is priceless

[TheCuttymane]

@yonextman007 Actually D.C. is as pure as it get Brotha! The whole East Coast knows that. You havent heard of Chocolate City. Yes the Nations Capitol is the Blackest City in America and Have been since the late 60z. A trend setting city that gets recognition World Wide for not only being a Mecca for Blacks but also Blacks With Power. Thats Right Some of The Most Powerful People are From or Live in or About D.C.

[617freshest]

Free Wayne . Free Rayful . Free Alpo of BIggest niggaz who ran DC in the 80s .

rayful edmond and wayne perry are cousins for people who were wondering.

[lilbig8543]

[son0frap]

[tyriek09]

" i been runnin in this game since rayful was flippin chickens"- my dad mike butta

[duecethird22333]

babe ruth.lol

[MSTONIE32]

when i was like 3 or 4 his uncle took me trick or treating....we lived 5th st like he was over my house all the time chilling like family....Of course Ray was a lil boy, Who would have known!!!

[Western00]

back n the days...everybody in DC was getting money everybody has a hustle....I remember all those cats at crap games...on another note.....ray didnt control DC.... he had renounced violence...but some people just going to be wild just like the scence in goodfellows" when paulie says joe pesci is a bad seed" alpo couldn't walk around alone....til he got wayne on his team...the streets are what they are its best to stay off them and get a job!

[Younginfamous4]

the documentary was something serious i dont think there ever was or will be anybody to move as much as he did in the states at least accept griselda blanco, but anyway ray was the ranning king in dc bro so in so many ways he coulda ran dc with the power he had

[buggeazy102]

wayne perie?

[frankchambers2114]

This DVD was awesome great job Curt Bone

[Idolpurist]

Nicky Barnes ALWAYS bought his Junk from the mob. He was a main Dealer. Frank Lucas SUPPLIED the Mob. Wholesale in Bulk. Nicky, Rayful, etc NEVER did that. Rayful got his stuff from an L.A. supplier. Since Frank sold his Junk to the Mexican and Italian Mobs, Nicky at times was actually buying Frank's Junk. It has just been cut some. Nicky was Frank's Bit$#. Supplying other Organizations means you've made it. Frank was King. Nicky was never anything but a reseller. Frank..the SOURCE.

[pjicleanair420]

no black got money on the east coast from the coke boom in 80s then rayful edmond

[BigMoneyBags]

Ray was the man back in the day...but on the low errybody no who ran the city back then til he was killed..my nigga Fray. a real uptown nigga

[hexman2209]

Didnt that faggot snitch alpo kill fray

[superbball]

i went to elementary skool, actually was in classes with his son during his early 90's reign... at first didn't even know nething about it

[ric24actor]

I know,and thanks for being so cool,about the other.

[Lorraine315]

Soooo this is the guy that RNC Chair Michael Steele's sister used to date!!! LOL I wonder if the republicans know this little fact

[ric24actor]

Yea Hex,frank Lucus was small time compared to rayful Edmond,sorry man about that comment,

you were right.

ric

[ric24actor]

Hey hex, i stand corrected,i did write something.iam in california right now,but i do live up town. i was told that in the late 60s frank,hex right now i went dry on his last name. did hemake a million a day,back in the day. iam looking forward to this new picture.hex, frank lucus,i met him thru a mutal friend in harlem,

the week the picture opened.

[burrfscott]

He wasnt as big as Nicky Barnes,and sure as hell wasnt as big as Harlems king of all drugs

Mr.Saturday night.

[hexman2209]

Are you fucking crazy??Not as big as barnes? 300mill a year..barnes wont even the biggest from harlem

[drestack75]

i agree i seriously doubt barnes was doing 70 mil a monthe that shit is the type of money that would scare the hell out of me

[cocosofli]

Nicky was a snitch!

[kap2276]

This was a very very sad time in Washington DC and around the country. I actually worked the streets as a beat cop 87,88, 89 and 90 in NE DC where many of the murders were committed. Families destroyed on all sides..It's no surprise that 20 years later we are still talking about and posting pieces like this...We need to realize that the Rayful Edmond's, Ricky Ross's and Nicky Barnes of the world were all pawns in the big games of chess being played by government.

[peacenotapartheid]

legalize it

[Idolpurist]

What...CRACK!!

[extra432]

we all know the harm drugs and drug dealers bring to the black community, esp... drug dealers are like those blacks in Africa that threw nets on other Africans and sold them into slavery...for money or other selfish reasons. we need to quit defending those ppl that contribute to problems in our own communities

[sizah185]

@extra432

Yeh drug delers re like those Africns who sold slaves.....yeh they both put in fucked up position by europeans. ppl who sell drugs dont sell to destroy their commuties. On slavery tip most fricns werent sold by they're on. It was classic divide and conquer.....there isnt enough space for me to explin, theres lots of books that go in to rel depth on slavery and written slave accounts

[1bounce234]

Its too ez too become famous today. The only thing worst then people like Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian becoming famous for doing nothing is people like Rayful Edmond becoming famous for moving drugs n having people killed.

He's notorious, a real ass, hope he's enjoying his life behind bars. Talk about a wasted life.

[plorins123]

yo stfu, what have you done with your life shmelt

[1bounce234]

What have I done w/my life? Well I haven't sold drugs to thousands of people n killed dozens of people! N I'm not spendin my life behind bars, eatin food that tastes like cardboard n takin it from Bubba, lol.

Don't b decieved, just cause the media covers someone it doesn't mean they should b admired. Hell the media has covered serial killers in the past, should they be revered?

Theres is a big difference between being infamous n famous, a coward n a hero.

[sinistercharlie]

shit look up the real rick ross hes the king heh but they all big dogs

[melloprod]

you the king when a kingpin in d.c-the governments hood. even though, we know the government played a major role.

[LRTWR]

Oh yeah and this shit is mad old.. they made it in like '05/'06. On some budget ass shit.

The make Rayfull look weak .. doesnt do him justice.

[LRTWR]

1. This aint a movie trailer, is a documantery trailer.

2. Based on a true story? It is a true story ..

Get your facts right.

[yumyumkarl]

shit 1 of the sickest stuff i eveer seen..

[DCpilla]

ALL KOOL RAYFUL!

[brooklynsjaguar30]

alpo baby

[drestack75]

that nigga could'nt see ray money

[golddigg3r8000]

i live not to far from ne dc....is this movie out already

[LikableDesi]

Its a shame that this guy is considered a hero. I think you should watch Obama biography. That man is the true undisputed gangsta. A black man beat the former pres wife is an election. The whitest of the whitest lady. With a name that rhymes with Osama and a middle name Hussain. And a totally muslim last name. Not only that he will beat mcpain soon. The whitest of the whitest guy. A borderline hillbilly/honkey/kkk leader. Now thats gangsta.

[AbsolootPerfekshun1]

@LikableDesi You're an idiot if you believe that, kill yourself.

[otraxx1]

@LikableDesi obama aint no hero, hes justa figurehead for the same old plan.. ron paul should lead america.. as for this rayful edmond is up there with all those badasses.. frank lucas, rick ross, the godmother...

[TheCuttymane]

@otraxx1 Rayful Edmunds was and still is Bigger than any Drug Dealer in America.. Check his Docs.. Yes your right obama aint shit.

[CoverGirl084]

@TheCuttymane neither are you. you probably can't even read

[absgawd]

@LikableDesi hindsight is 20/20...the climate of the city at the time was in an era when you could be homeless today and driving a benz coupe in a week. Even some of his smart underlings was making making $25,000 a week. Some of those guys was 15 years old with 2-3 trucks and cars.

[tango1290]

@absgawd thats good

[Problem141]

@LikableDesi yes it is gangsta, but what ray did was 10 times harder than that and it was way more dangerous and risky, which makes it more gangsta. but straight up obama is the biggest legal gangsta around

[TrifeLife92]

@LikableDesi That is the realest shit I ever read on Youtube.

[grasd2]

@LikableDesi And you're considering Obama a hero just because he beat some white people in the election. You're a racist idiot.

[Shakuli]

@zackselivonik ... sell more copies of what?? that was a news broadcast not the dvd narrator who stated those numbers....This is Dodge city my man, do your history!!Ricky Ross name cant be mentioned alongside Rayfs..it is what it is..you just dont want to beleeve what it was!!

[EastMenloBoss]

all i hear from you guys is tha same people u muthafuckas ave watched dvds about yall dont know any real niggas in tha game back then besides Jon Roberts, George Jung, Rayful, Frank Lucas, Rick ross,gresilda blancos i mean thats sm lame shit thier were niggas like cody redd from tha bay muthafuckin hersh and etc stop repeatin what u hear

[DCpilla]

Western00 that's real talk. Ray was about urry-body gettin paid. mainman took care of jokers all over the city. even if he didn't know you he looked out. Rayful played the game fair. and he got yanked by rats. you can't expect that man to keep feeding urry-body and they put his life on the line. Ray was a good dude joe. Alpo was a cold bitch joe! a rack of dudes was takin his coke. he needed Silk to protect his ass.

[Western00]

check out my man *Curtbone* in rayful edmond's

document he speaks the truth!!!

[Western00]

rayful was a genius but like too many men of color they use their business skills and brains for evil ways and thats the real sad part of it all. alpo is smack talker he didnt take over the city and he got snatched and chumped many times til he got wayne perry on his team , and many people dont rayful was against violence he never order any hits all thats just propaganda.

[zackselivonik]

2000 kilos a week?? gimme a break. No one was moving that much shit, except maybe the people that were bringing it in to the country. Like Griselda Blanco or Carlos Lehder of the Medellin Cartel. 2000 kilos a week...well hey, it sounds good...makes the story more intriguing, sell more copies of it. Dont get me wrong, Edmond was one of the top cocaine distributors of his generation, along with Ricky Ross and Charles Cosby.

[Western00]

hey you really dont know rayful was moving 2,000

kilos and then when he went to prison the numbers peaked at 6,000 kilos even charles cosby said rayful was getting and he would tip his hat to me, rayful's contact dude was chicky griselda son. rayful gave many friends up to 100,000 dollars just to hang around people who were not in the game. do your homework he was bigger than ricky ross on the east coast, also the r-street lincoln road boys were getting big-time money

[EastMenloBoss]

stop believin' what u read all tha time brah brah its niggas out thier u neva hheard of who was doin thing think about this only people stories u hear are people either locked for lif dead or snitched period so how many really did make it or simply story u neva heard think about that

[DCpilla]

slim ain't nobody gonna ever get it like Ray was gettin it. ain't nobody gonna ever smash jokers like Silk. a legend. Ray got eurry-body paid and rat on him first. Ray took his trail and took his time. got cats paid again while in prison and they rat. dig. when u don't play the game fair. then don't expect the person u fuckin over to stick to the code. them bammas got what they deserve. should've paid him. they would've been good. they said fuk him so cuz hit 'em back. not a whole lot to dat.

[tluv83]

shit is so true what you talkin about people excpect to live by a certain set of rules and not the other whenever its convenient i guess

[silverpsp23]

The most notorious killer in Washington DC's history was a killer for the celebrated RAT Alpo Martinez, cousin to Rayful Edmonds (another RAT). Also the man of one of the baddest bitches, Twala.

[Western00]

name was edmond and you have to check out the situation rayful didnt rat out anyone those dudes he so called snitched owed him millions.

check out tony reed's document

[williamandrew21]

yea im livin da dc life now and i know some youngns i mean like 14-15 gettin 6 digits, so i know them ol heads making mils

[likwhoa202]

It aint a thing of the past ur crazy. Go to D.C. right now aint a fucking thing changed. What you think little shit heads moving 10 bags of crack are bringing in kilo's of coke get real.

[zk92000]

There will always be drug dealers. But as far as the "Big kingpins", guys makin over like a hundred Million a year. Thats a thing of the past. The market isnt set up to make that kinda money anymore. You need a huge network, and a killer connect. The problem is the police learnd so much about how to stop guys like that BECAUSE of guys like that in the 80's.

[5rey67trhtrhtry65765]

Yes, drug dealing in the 70s and 80s was much more accessible. Law enforcement was often ignorant and even more often corrupt- bribes back then were very common. Importing and distributing $1,000,000 amounts of cocaine and heroin weekly was commonplace in the drug game back then. Jon Roberts, George Jung, Rayful, Frank Lucas, Rick Wershe- all sorts of entrepreneurs from that era. That level is rare today- but it does exist. We just haven't heard their story because they havent been busted yet...

[ElZomboFantasma]

I'd love to gut open some piece of subhuman shit like him.

Hell, I'd fucking pay to do it.

[datbitch222]

i saw this it was good

[caramelhotti24]

No one could have been Rafel but Rafel at that time. He was selling pure Columbian COCAINE...ppl back then (Nation-wide) and folks now aren't selling pure coke for the most part/ Neither are they selling anything close to 2 keys a week.

[Western00]

the name was rayful and they didnt lock up everyone on the loud was got caught up check out charles cosby cocaine cowboys

[melloprod]

anybody could have been a rayful edmond in the 80's. some accepted the challenge, some did the right thing, and the others became zombies!there can never be another rayful because now we got more crack dealers than 7-elevens! too many people eatin off the same slice of cake.

[kevkash]

he was the king of dc

[getgullybx]

Yeah I feel that his life should be put on screen. Eventhough it ends tragically I think that something positive can be gained from his story. He had tremendous will and drive, if he would have put that same effort somewhere more constructive and positive I think he would have had more longevity.

[robsino]

yeah, and he also contributed to the murder of many, and contribute the messing the lives of many.

[uptownjhoey]

yea and he also contributed to the betterment of alot of ppl who were able to open up businesses and clothing lines in the inner city ass well ....

[robsino]

yeah and he also contributed to materialistic greed, so people forgot about the goodness inside.

[uptownjhoey]

Black ppl been materialistic before 1985...u can't put that on Rayful...Look I'm not trying to defend dude but don't act like he's the source of alot of the problems that already existed without....then u dont point out the good and this is coming from a D.C native

[robsino]

his not the source of corruption, but his certainly a contributer of it. But I never would give any credit to people like that... How many people look at him, how many people been inspired to follow the darkness he walk... many weak minded people out there. The world has enough corruption enough, why add more? Media nowadays... things they do for money, regardless the side effect it has to blind people

[uptownjhoey]

it's not the weak minded. It's the ppl who simply want more out of life ppl..tired of being told what to do how to talk how to wear your hair ppl tired of feeling less then what their worth and having to rely on bullshit ass under paying jobs like I said I'm from Dc and theres alot of good that comes from drug money....

[uptownjhoey]

and your rite there is alot of curruption in the world but nobody seems to care esp. about the young black male so if there is a way to make it out of the fuqed up world that you do live in by all means do so..then try on not being currupted but when you don't have shit ..something has to give

[uptownjhoey]

I don't no if Jay Z sold drugs but he had alot of money to get that 50/59 venture that he did get so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and because of the drug dealing he's able to provide a better enviorment for a good amont of ppl including kids in africa

[robsino]

over my ends, there are bunch of drug confuse addicts with broken homes, spreading injection of H.I.V, corrupting the lives of little kids, instead of being humble they become arrogant, violent, instead of chairity they steal, instead of compassion to all they promote violence and murder... think they those path is the dark one... the true demon is the demon within us... ie greed, hatred and delusion..

[PlowThrough8]

Cocaine Is Fucking Awesome Go Ray!

[melloprod]

most rap artist come from the inner city, how you think they come up with the doe for equipment, studio time, and gear, mcdonalds?

[robsino]

there are a lot of poor people out there, but you certainly don't see them selfishly harming the life of others, don't you? Everyone should be a man and accept his hardship, and not harm others. Which reminds me,

[Western00]

in the end rayful admitted his mistakes and he was really sorry he didnt railroad anyone up the river for life like alpo did to wayne perry but actually wayne deserved it for killing innocent victims like his own daughters mother. dude was the scum of the earth and so was alpo and anyone other drug dealer pure scum!!!!!

[hoang111222]

another great clip man, 5 stars. this clip is goin to hollywood. is there going to really be a movie of reggie lewis and this dude???
