In the streets, deals are made all the time. Some to keep the peace... others aim to disturb it. The alliance between Worlds and Fredd however, was formed to do one thing... DOMINATE! The two hard-hitting gangsters have a literal choke-hold on the East Coast. Weight don't move and bodies don't drop unless they call the shot first. But if that's true, then why did someone just launch a brazen bullet-riddled attack against them? Worlds and Fredd survive the attempt and decide to go on offense to flush out the guilty party. Allowing such an infraction to go unanswered is NOT an option when playing on the level they are. The man behind the attack is a high ranking narco trafficker named Riggs. Worlds and Fredd Inc. have something very valuable to him and he won't rest until he's re-acquired it. Riggs employs a deadly duo of his own to complete the task, but their loyalties secretly lie elsewhere. A turn of events that could prove to be fatal for all involved and everything and everyone, they love.

The game once had three major rules that were never to be broken or compromised, regardless of how serious things got in one's life. Death before dishonor was more than just a code; it was the law of the streets, written in the blood of the OGs who killed and died upholding it. Back then, there were many rewards for those who followed the codes. On the other hand, the penalty was death for anyone who violated the laws, and anybody close to him. At the very least, that person would be blackballed from the hood and any illegal street ventures. Clearly the game as we once knew it has been changed by today's hustlers, gangsters, and crooks. Most of them have strayed far from the script. The majority of them would rather save their asses than save face. They would sooner live with shame and disgrace than die with honor and respect. With the current status of the game and the sheisty individuals who are playing it, is there anyone who will honor the past and acknowledge the rules of the game for what they used to be? A newcomer to the urban lit scene, Amir Sanchez delivers a realistic, gripping story of life on the streets, where hustlers still rule, but honor and loyalty have taken on new meaning.

He becomes their prime target, along with those closest to him. Enter Dominique. She wants a life with Worlds but upon finding out he's back to his old ways she threatens to depart.
