Top Shottas

Yes yes yes. Wayne(Spragga Benz), Biggs(Kymani Marley), Mad Max(Paul Campbell),Teddy Bruck Shut(Louie Rankin), and the list goes on but these are the main characters. For those who don't know this movie, yes it is about friendship, loyalty and greed but it also shows how easy it is to fall into that lifestyle and how hard it is to stop. Living dirty always costs someone their life. This is a movie but it does happen and not only in Jamaica but poor black people in general. When you've been struggling for so long and the first opportunity you have to get out you take it but it shouldn't be an excuse to kill people, rob, etc. Everything else is self explanatory.
