Ishmael Ford Bey speaks on his first five hours down Lorton. His 50,000-diamond chain was one of one

Ish hit the Quack, a Lorton prison, with a $50,000 chain at a time when prisoners were getting murdered for less. He learned a quick lesson about how Lorton works and most of the time it's killed or be killed. #dcblacks #milliondollarman #dcornothing #hiphop #history #gangster

Ish always was a real one, my high school sweetheart. We had some good times together, he always made sure I was straight!

Listening to Him and Fly, it's a classic example of the same principles but different styles. When Men were Men... A Man's Man.
