Baller Dreams
John “Dre” Dodson graduates from his Detroit high school with a goal to become a major force in the city’s drug game. He soon meets Destiny, an older woman who knew Dre’s now-imprisoned father. Dre should be wary of a big butt and a smile, and we find out Destiny has bided her time plotting revenge on John, Sr. The wealthy woman fronts Dre with nine ounces of cocaine and his business takes off, but his relationship with Destiny is shaky with a question of who’s in control. With time Dre’s crew is pushing millions of dollars of product. Of course there’s danger leading to death, and Dre’s right-hand-man states, “We’re playin’ a dirty game, cuz.” Early in Dre’s life a teacher warned him that the streets will put him in a cell or a casket.by Tasha Macklin
