  • While some people may think that Frank Lucas was one of the biggest heroin kingpins in New York during the 1970s after "American Gangster" was released, Pee Wee Kirkland told VladTV that his operation was much bigger. The famed drug kingpin and basketball player revealed that many of the scenes in the 2007 Denzel Washington film were sensationalized, including where drugs are brought into the U.S. from Vietnam in coffins.
    When asked if he would ever release his own tell-all movie, Kirkland explained that he's been approached for years about doing a biopic, but he made it clear that he's not interested in giving every detail of his life for a movie. After adding that his film will be a lot more real than "American Gangster," Pee Wee spoke about how he has turned his life around and now he has influenced hip-hop artists, including Ludacris, on how to better themselves and leave the street life alone.
    To hear more of what Pee Wee Kirkland had to say, including being the first young millionaire in Harlem, hit the above clip.

      You notice it's my first time looking at this video and you are absolutely correct brother do you know the lp I can still come after him if he run his mouth and he been selling drugs and Harlem in
      New York don't post monitor social media UA-cam I noticed that reporter ask him question he's trying to get into that Batman Infinity tell his business he got in the more money left it's none of his business pee wee small man he's not stupid anytime you do a interview with the mob and gangsters Don't folks ain't going to tell you all the details so you can police can find them he a smart person Peewee very smart OG gangster

      PeeweeThis is a real OG gangster people's when I say real real he wouldn't about all that killing he was about
      making money man and he didn't want to see other young brothers killing people's for what make money not kill Dam will you begin to kill people's like Joe Gotti and all the rest of them you messing the game up you messing up for everybody else😎😎😎😎💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸✊✊✊✊
      People's this is a real documentary people don't make up nothing these are real gangsters they just know what to say on social media when they interview you being interview they don't say certain thing that will get that messed up you know when you've been selling drugs all of those years you take the FBI won't come after you you say the wrong thing they'll lock you away like they did Yo Gotti I don't care how many years that be in the 60s or 70s you think I'm lying ask Bill Cosby look how long they said that rape case then and they just not coming forward on Bill Cosby whether it's true or not
      And this interview Pee wee can say the wrong word and next time you know when you read about it his ass locked up for life. this man ain't going to do no interview and incriminate himself for what he don't live his life you don't want to go back now you don't want to go no prison confessin the shite he did
      even if I was a gangster and you do an interview on me and you ask me a question do I have any more money you think I'm going to tell you that he'll know I could have been a big drug kingpin in the sixties and you do a interview on me and you asked me that question do I got in the more money left you think I'm going to tell you that he'll know you think I'm a criminal 8 myself if you didn't get me back then you sure as hell ain't going to get me now I ain't going to give you the opportunity FBI Peewee still got some money but if you're not going to tell anybody it's not their business ask me about my life but not about no money😎💸💸💸💸✊✊

      Yes they do, there's a reason why you can go anywhere and sell drugs pretty easily and make a lot of money compared to creating your own product. It's the same as Yeezy's, Supreme or popping brands. The marketing has already been done, the customer just wants good quality and fair pricing. Whereas your own shit good pricing and quality isn't enough. The customer needs to build a connection with your brand and needs to become familiar with it. Not drugs though, users know exactly what it is and they're everywhere. It sells itself.

It's like reselling Yeezy's. That shit is easy but try and resale some unbranded sneaker or "chocolate" and see how far you get. Crack itself is a popular brand. Same thing with weed, it just depends on what strain but you can sell it anywhere if it's good. If it's unknown or people don't fuck with it then you won't move shit. It's about the brand. So no it's not the same thing as saying chocolate because that's not specific enough

That purpose is obviously much more fulfilling than any "Accolades" from the drug game/theft (100 year illusion). The short term benefits of that lifestyle can never match what he's found. Also, it can never outlive/outweigh the regret of all the destruction you caused. Only a purpose driven life can give you the smile & the drive Pee Wee has today.. Be Blessed

      I disagree. There wasn't really a lot of interesting things said in this interview. Vlad tried to probe with questions like "What's the craziest thing you ever saw when you were out there" and he starts evading the question and talking about how others are liars. Its good when Vlad asks questions because some people need prodding or they ramble on and on. After watching this entire 20 minute interview, I walked away with three new pieces of knowledge in those whole 20 minutes: 1. Frank Lucas is a liar 2. Pee Wee doesn't talk about things he's done, he lets others talk for him. 3. Pee Wee knows a lot about jewels and luxury things. He spent about 5-10 minutes talking about each of these topics and didn't say much else. Others on here are like "hes real, he doesn't talk about stuff he did, he aint no snitch!", yeah but he at least could have talked about some crazy street incidents he witnessed or heard about or anything really.

    Being a man isn't robbing and stealing. Being a man is robbing and stealing and realizing what you did wrong and using that knowledge to create a ripple of change that saves lives and impacts thousands. Highest respect for PWK.
