Back in 2012, I connected with @gabriellopez186 . He handed me pages of his words,his story, written while serving 10 yrs up north.

I was immediately struck by how vivid, raw and real it was. Coming from the Bronx myself, and growing up in that era, I knew this was more than just a story, it was a story that needed to be told.

We turned those pages into a series. We shot it. We came close to signing a network deal.

But it was never released.

13 years later, I posted a piece of the trailer… and the response has been crazy. Thousands of you shared it, commented, and started asking about the show, thank you!🙏🏽 I’ll be sure to continue releasing shorts. 🫡

So now I’m asking you:

Should we finally make this happen?

YES or NO? 👇🏽

Let me and G.A.B. Know in the comments. 💯🙏🏽
