Frank Lucas says he paid $4,200 for a kilo of heroin in Thailand. In Harlem, it sold for $60,000 to $70,000.
He says he moved the money through Chase Manhattan.
In the video below, the real “American Gangster” explains how it worked.
Lucas worked under Harlem boss Bumpy Johnson for 13 years. Bumpy wouldn’t touch drugs.
When Bumpy died in 1968, Lucas says he went around Harlem and collected the money people owed. About $3 million to $4 million.
He put it in Chase Manhattan, in different branches. Chase had a branch in Bangkok.
“All I had to do is go over there and draw it out.”
In Thailand, he says, he met a man he only calls “007.” Price of entry: $125,000.
“He showed it to me for the 300 keys.”
He says the heroin came back to the U.S. through military bases.
$4,200 a kilo in Bangkok. Up to $70,000 in Harlem. More than 15 times the price.
Denzel Washington later played him in “American Gangster.”
Asked what he regrets, he talks about the cars, the Rolls-Royce, and a diamond bracelet with his name on it.
“It cost me like 100 grand. What did it do for me? Garbage.”
The case for Lucas: he says he bought turkeys for Thanksgiving, paid rent for women in the neighborhood and sent kids to college.
The case against Lucas: the heroin he brought in by the hundreds of kilos was sold on the same Harlem streets.
So was Frank Lucas giving back to Harlem, or just paying it back with its own money?

All billionaires are evil.
Steve Jobs was worth over $200 million at 25. He paid his daughter $385 a month.
Her mother cleaned houses and went on welfare. The county had to sue him to pay it back.
In the video below, his daughter Lisa talks about growing up with him.
Jobs was 23 when she was born. He helped pick her name. Then he denied she was his.
A DNA test said he was the father. He told Time magazine that 28% of men in America could be.
The same year, Apple went public. He became one of the richest young men in the country.
He named a computer after her: the Apple Lisa. For years, he refused to admit it.
One day her mother was on the phone with him, sobbing, begging for money. Lisa, a little girl, took the phone and said: “Just give her some money.” Then she hung up.
Another time, her mother asked him for a house. He said yes. Then he bought one for himself.
At 14 she moved in with him. His condition: she couldn’t see her mother for six months.
Years later, he was dying of cancer. She sat by his bed.
“The thing he kept on saying is, ‘I owe you one, and I’m so sorry.’”
Did she forgive him?
“I think not at the time.”
“In many ways, yes.”
When her memoir came out, his widow and his sister released a statement: her story “differs dramatically from our memories.”
The case for Jobs: he was young, he came back, and he tried to make it right before he died.
The case for Lisa: a billionaire’s daughter shouldn’t have grown up on welfare.
He named a computer after her. He wouldn’t say she was his. On his deathbed, he said, “I owe you one.”
Was “I’m sorry” enough, or did it come 30 years too late?

This is so sad he ain’t deserve a death like that
Former Baddies reality star Demi Blanco has been indicted for making a false 911 call leading to Young Scooter’s death.
Seventeen months after she was arrested for transmitting a false public alarm in connection with the 39-year-old rapper’s tragic passing, prosecutors indicted Blanco, born Demetria Spence, on the same count in late September.
Police say on March 28, 2025, Blanco made a 911 call claiming that gunshots were fired and a naked and bloody woman was being pushed out of a home on William Nye Drive in Atlanta. She also gave the dispatcher details about the house being used for drug distribution and prostitution.
When police arrived on the scene, Scooter, who was celebrating his 39th birthday that day, and another man fled out of a back door. The rapper was eventually located by police officers, suffering from a cut to his leg he sustained while jumping a fence. Scooter later succumbed to fatal blood loss. Blanco was arrested on April 1, 2025.
On the day she was arrested, Blanco came forward on social media and identified herself as the person who made the fateful 911 call. She insisted she did so to protect herself from being physically abused. Police found no evidence to support her claims.
