American Gangster - Season 03 Episode 09 - The Romper Room Gang

This is a re-upload of this episode, because the other torrent uploaded by MrSwisher, a gentleman and a scholar, was unedited and had commercials. Thanks to MrSwisher for his initiative on finding the only episode of American Gangster I care about...the one on Mac mutherfuckin Dre. I have left his original torrent info, cept for some extra shit I added. Enjoy.



This group of notorious homegrown bank robbers, from the troubled Bay Area suburb of Vallejo, robbed dozens of banks in that Area in the mid-’90s. Convicted rap artist Mac Dre was among the gang’s friends and fellow travelers. After serving five years in prison, Dre emerged as a major underground figure in Bay Area hip hop and nurtured the careers of several other “romper room” robbers-turned-rappers as well, putting Vallejo on the map as a center for music and gangster-dom. Dre and his cohorts also developed a big following in Kansas City – where he was murdered after a concert in 2004 – allegedly by a Kansas City rapper he once worked with, named “Fat Tone” Watkins, who’d recorded a rap song insinuating his involvement in the crime. That set off a revenge killing, as “Fat Tone” was killed in Las Vegas, like the fucking scumbag he was. Mac Dre Forever

Since his death, Mac Dre has become an icon in the Bay Area, and especially in Vallejo, where violent crime remains out of proportion to its size and locale and which recently made headlines as the first city in California history to declare bankruptcy. Dre’s legacy is carried on there by former friends and partners in crime who are now blazing new paths as artists and businessmen, although they are still shadowed by their pasts.

Mac Dre is a rap legend, the illest and dopest MC to ever Thizz the fuck out while killing it 200% of the time.

Again, much thanks to MrSwisher & his original torrent.
