So I'm convinced that Nino Brown is a fictional Frank Lucas

[p mac one]

... PROVE me wrong.

 

[ogbobbyjohnson773]

Crank Lucas?

 

[falcon4567]

Yeah that's essentially the point much in the same way Charles Kane was William Hearst.

 

[jordanxi45]

The movie New Jack City and Nino Brown was based off Felix Mitchell and Oakland, CA. The place where crack was created. Frank Lucas and American Gangster wasbased off heroin, not crack.

But I don't really understand the ? you're asking.

I can't tell if you're screwing with me or not

Edit: According to wiki, we're all wrong:

New Jack City was based solely on the notorious Chambers Brothers gang of Detroit, who revolutionized the use of an apartment tower to be used for all phases of drug dealing, including packaging, storage, and of course the drug deals.

Junior Healy was Geronimo.

same thing i thought

 

[gjisprecise]

crank lucas?

 

[yungmooly]

Doubt it, frank lucas is still alive and nino brown died at the end. also, Frank Lucas snitched on cops and other dudes in the game, all nino did was put allthe blame on the duh duh man.

PS. Im not buying that this movie is based on the chambers brothers at all, there are absolutely no similarites between the two.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

[airant23]

YO!

It's based very loosely on them.The characters arent really based off them.Just the surroundings.But Nino is based off Nicky, not suppose tobe him.But the character was influenced by him
