The first edition. The book that started it. The novel Colman Domingo autographs on screen in Sing Sing.
365 pages. Published 2006. Written inside.
Brooklyn, the 1990s. Rasheen Smith worships money like a god and picks up a gun the way other men pick up a trade. He has a mother he can't protect and a little brother he'd die for, and no options worth the name.
Killer Kato is watching. Kato doesn't want a soldier — he wants a weapon. Suicide runs on rival drug houses, one after another, until the day one of them costs Rasheen his freedom.
Rikers. Elmira. Clinton. Sing Sing. While Rasheen does his bid, Kato turns his baby brother Lameek into a rap star and owns him outright. Getting out is the easy part. Getting to Lameek before Kato finishes with him is what the rest of Rasheen's life comes down to.
The ending is the part readers still argue about twenty years later. It lands one hard truth: money is not only the root of all evil — it is the master of every motivator, including the ones drenched in good intentions.
WHY THE ORIGINAL
This is the text as Divine G first wrote it, serving twenty-five years for a crime he did not commit, on a prison typewriter, with no publisher waiting. It's the version that circulated hand to hand through cell blocks before it ever reached a bookstore. It's the version in the film.
Some readers want the definitive text. Some want the artifact. This is the artifact.
