About the documentary :
“The BMF Documentary: Blowing Money Fast” tracks the rise and fall of the most notorious drug syndicate in American history, Black Mafia Family, as chronicled through firsthand accounts of BMF members, insiders, associates and celebrity figures close to the Flenory family.
The series exclusively features audio commentary from founding member Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory, who is appearing in a documentary for the first time. As the doc recounts pivotal moments in his life, Big Meech shares his perspective and insight into building the BMF empire.
The eight, half-hour episodes provide a comprehensive overview of the BMF story spanning four decades – from the early 80s to present day – across five major U.S. cities and immersing viewers in a network of crisscrossing relationships between crime, hip hop, and law enforcement.
It also incorporates journalists and consultants close to these key players to provide the production authenticity, historical, and cultural context. “The BMF Documentary” serves as a great pre-cursor to our scripted “BMF” series, which returns this January.
