“We did it, all right…ha, ha, ha… Who the hell is gonna look in a dead soldier’s coffin? Ha ha ha. . . .We had him make up 28 copies of the government coffins . . . except we fixed them up with false bottoms, big enough to load up with six, maybe eight kilos . . . It had to be snug. You couldn’t have shit sliding around. Ike was very smart, because he made sure we used heavy guys’ coffins. He didn’t put them in no skinny guy’s . . .” Frank Lucas, 2000.

Now, the man played by Denzel Washington in the blockbuster “American Gangster” speaks with Jacky Jasper about his past, his present and his future.

“I was like on top of the world,” says Lucas. “I wanted to be rich.”

And that’s exactly what he became – rich. But, making it to the top of the drug game came at a cost. The man who took New York City by storm back in the late 60’s and early 70’s admits to Jacky that more money really does sum up to more problems. “To tell you the truth, it was fucked up what I did,” admits Lucas.

The former Kingpin was sentenced to 70-years behind bars. After serving five-years of that sentence, Lucas provided information that led to the arrest of more than 100 other drug convictions. He later served another seven-years.

“Unless you’ve been through what Mr. Lucas has been through then you can say something,” says Lucas’ right-hand man, Sosa. “But if you ain’t been through it, there’s no reason for you to open your mouth about it.”

Now, Frank Lucas is turning over a new leaf in an effort to bring a positive element to the streets in the form of clothing. “He’s living proof that you can turn your life around,” says Sosa. “We’re trying to keep these kids off the streets.”

Though franklucasclothing.com is in its very early stages of development, several celebrities including Denzel Washington, and top NBA Players are sporting the line. You can too, just go to franklucasclothing.com

Take a listen to the authentic “American Gangster” who says that 95-percent of his character in the movie featuring Denzel Washington, was pretty much on the money…
