EPISODE 1
“NEW N****z”
“Kho” is a young ambitious kid up early trying to make some money. He calls “Thug” who just so happens to be planning a mission to “clean up” a recently developed marijuana trafficking operation that is infringing on his already successful business. Kho is eagerly willing to assist knowing that a successful mission would bring him some easy money… and he is willing to take all the risk involved in such a task.
Meanwhile “Juice” another boss in the city with his own operation, connects with childhood friend “Tension” , who recently came home from prison. He like Kho.. is on a money making mission and Juice has a connection to some of the best highest grade product in the city! This gives Tension the perfect opportunity to become a boss of his own in this land of independent drug distribution networks connected by major interstate highways and perfectly located geographically in the center of the upstate between the major cities of Charlotte North Carolina and Atlanta Georgia.
This is why Spartanburg South Carolina also known as “HUB CITY” is exactly that for more reasons than one.
