The Real Story About the Movie "Belly"

 

As far as the movie Belly, it’s worth a watch and is a cult classic. If you are into movies along the lines of paid in full, blue hill avenue, menace to society, or boys in the hood, go watch it. 

The real story is a lot different and involves a murder and what may seem like shaky testimonies. The movie states that the guys were getting money out in Nebraska, but in real life, it was undisputed, that Al Monday, Shakim bio and 2 others, were trafficking drugs from Jamaica-Queens to Lorain Ohio.
