    Will Smith didn't give Bucky's full name in his book, but incase anyone was wondering, this is the same Bucky Davis who was a friend of Will Smith and partied at Will's Merion mansion during his rise as a rapper in the late 80s. He loaned Will Smith the money when Will was flat broke to get out to Los Angeles when the feds were cracking down on JBM and were looking to take Will down by loose association.
    Will Smith left for LA on May 10th 1990. 3 days later, on May 13th (or 14th depending on which source you use), Bucky would be dead.That same year, after Will used Bucky's money to get settled in LA, he went on to have his own starring role in a tv show, which we all know. The rest is history. Will Smith may have never been one of the most famous actors of all time without the money Bucky lent him to get out of town. RIP Bucky Davis. He never got to know that Will ever even BECAME an actor. Life is short.

      The part where he said (Bucky) that he and Will were the same, but just had different luck really hit hard. Sometimes you just can’t help but be a product of your environment.

    I have waited a long time to speak upon this video, it's a sore subject for me because the guy that helped make this video was my beloved young bull Mike Jab. I was actually in the video, because Mike knew of my past and his own uncle was affiliated with Buck. I myself was on Market street and had to deal with the Larry Brown Faction of the M.. I had a helluva time holding on to Deaborn and Market street back in the day. My book will come out one day but right now I am still grieving over the death of Mike Jab..I am actually in the video!!

      I also knew his mother Crystal who knew the game very well and learned a lot from her growing up. She also passed away a little after Michael and she was a awesome person.
      I remember talking to mike about this documentary and he was happy and excited that he was a part of this and had a whole lot more he was trying to do.

    I grew up in Philly and I remember how everybody was throwing these jokers love and shout outs everywhere, but they didn't do shit for the hood but terrorize it. Now look at all of them, they are either dead, locked up , or fucked on drugs themselves. Not going to lie, I was 16 back in 87 and wanted to be in that life too, but I was always smart so I stuck with school and graduated then went into the army and then college when I got out. Have done well for myself and am glad I didn't fall victim to the streets like so many people I know did. When I go back to Philly to visit, I couldn't even tell you where most of the people I grew up with are or what happened to them except for a few.. SMH, We need to stop glorifying jokers like this and do better before we are lost for good...

    In the summer of 1986 I was 22 year's old, just got an honorable discharge from the Navy in San Diego, went back home to Los Angeles and saw many young men like these. They were called high rollers and I started going to clubs and trying to meet them and work for them, but I was such a geek that they just laughed at me and I never got into the business. Looking back, I'm glad I didn't. I was too nice a guy and trusted people too much. I would have been killed like a lotta other cats did. I'll be 55 next month

The expected lifespan of a gangster is much, much shorter than the average working man or woman. These are the wages of sin.

    No matter we’re your from, and what was done, it never materialized into black wealth. You can’t stack nothing, when the police confiscate everything, including your black a.. When will we learn that if you don’t stand for nothing you fall for anything. While you discuss who was the best to do it, how much money was made and the worthless items brought, from destroying your own neighborhood, and glorify that shit. You all can barely afford to live there, if you haven’t moved to ATL or somewhere down south. Philly...RE-gentrification, NY...RE-gentrification, and every major city. All that money and we don’t own a muthafuck..thing. Let’s build something different then just looking back at what another men once had. Let’s work together so our children, and families will have something to look towards in the future. Billons of dollars made, but given away to the real hustlers of the world, the jewelry store, the car dealers, clothing stores, etc. You can’t risk your life, time, and family, to give your money to feed another man“s family...that’s hustling backwards. We don’t even own a jail, and they have been private for years. Buy up the hood, so when someone comes to buy a corner store or put in a Chinese restaurant, they have to keep it movin or pay a tax too high for them to stay (reverse gentrification). We can’t move to Iraq and put a store in any of their neighborhoods. If we are to use violence, hustle, or any calculated movement. Let it make sense that brings about the longevity of our community, not in vain so another muthafuck.r can’t take over. Stop terrorizing our own community, but refuse to take that shit to rich neighborhoods, or areas populated mostly by whites. We make money in the hood, to one day move our families to a safer place...no, make the hood safe and prosperous, and let the money not and end to the means, however, the solution to our own problems. We create addicts, so invest in rehabs, promote and invest in the youth to become police officers, council men/women, state officials, etc, so we know who walking our streets, protecting our rights, etc...and give them a sense of loyalty to their community. I’m not judging anyone’s opinion, but appeal to provide a different perspective. If we keep doing the same thing expecting a different result, are we not just insane. We can’t change how we play the game, moreover what game we choose to play.

      @@christopherhall9348 Thanks! I admit my comment is judgmental, but I did not judge you or your personal journey.
      I just wanted to highlight that there are maybe legal alternatives to the whole vicious jail or death cycle. If the personal circumstances allow for (even in the hood, not everyone has a mother struggling with drug addiction), then a legal job might do.
      For example (I don't live in the US) in my country there are plenty of jobs even for people without university degrees, blue collar jobs, or as an assistant in logistics, you can even become an assistant and office clerk in a lawyers or doctors office. With many of those jobs you can live a decent life.
      I know that the US is different and has many problems and basically neglects parts of it's population, especially poorer people and minorities. But even in the US there are possibilities and alternatives.

    I grew up with some of these dudes and would see them moving around in their kit cars like 80's rappers. Thing is everybody was making moves on the street in them days, everybody thought crack was gonna save them from poverty... it didnt!! It created a whole new set of problems for black communities for the years that followed.
    Crack was a tornado that swept thru black neighborhoods all across the country, these brothers thru their lack of understanding opened the windows in those hoods that allowed the tornado to sweep thru the house and destroy everything. I remember the addicted women leaving babies on police dept steps!! The suffering effects of the 80s drug epidemic for black folks was EPIC!! The only help that was offered was to lock your ass up, unlike what we see today with the opioid problem.
    Point is... you couldnt buy crack in white neighborhoods. The white boys had to come to black hoods to cop 🤔🤔

    I hung with all of them before they became J.B M. Bucky told me right before he started the reason why he got into the game. He told me because he didn't get high. It was all profit to him. I told him that I didn't get high either and he said that's why I'm telling you. We were gambling on the corner of 52nd & Chester when he told me. Nothing came into fruition because a month later I went to jail. When I got out he blew up. I could've got down with the but I made the conscious decision not to get down because I just did a bit behind his cousin J-Moe. At the time that was my partner in crime. We used to rob everybody.

      Shawn Williams not about being studio wanksters, it’s more about the streets influencing the music. This is why you have Rick Ross’ ,Yo Gotti’s etc.
