Street Dreams

Street Dreams the Duology

By: Al-Saadiq Banks

18 year old, Darryl Lowe is determined to make it out of the hood. A talented prize-fighter, he sees boxing as his way over the walls that separate the ghetto from the American Dream. Boxing is his future, but Darryl needs a means of survival for today. Until his boxing career takes off, Darryl follows his childhood friend into the street life. Unlike his friend, who sees the fame of the game as the epitome of success, Darryl has a different end game in mind. However, he becomes blinded by the illusion of the streets and reeled in by the allure of them, leading him to constantly chase the rush that comes with the lifestyle. To him, the spectators on the sidelines - some cheering for him, others booing against him - are all the same. All that matters to him is they’re screaming his name. The highs, the lows...the pain, the heartache, and the murder and treachery are all normalized until it becomes a distraction. Slowly, the goals Darryl once had, begin to fade away until they seem impossible to reach. When the fast life becomes too much, Darryl is forced to choose between the two loves of his life. Will he make the right decision, or will his Street Dreams turn into Nightmares.

Block Party 7

One Last Run

By: Al-Saadiq Banks

Tony Austin is the most talked about attorney of the 21st century. He is widely considered the most compelling attorney of all time. Early in his career, he was nicknamed the Dapper Don of attorneys attracting the attention of news media. As much as they wanted to focus on his stylish wardrobe, his craftiness and work ethic overshadowed his attire. Like a magician, he’s made some of the world’s most wicked criminals appear innocent. By hook or crook, he stops at nothing to defend his client, even if it means crossing that fine line between ethical and unethical. With all the antics the Government and the Judicial system have used against him, there’s no game he hasn’t seen. He’s gone against the system blow for blow singlehandedly. When it comes to victory, no pebble is too tiny for him to kick over, and no mountain is too big for him to climb. With all the challenging battles he’s fought to save his clients’ freedom, he now faces the most brutal one of them all, and that’s retaining his own freedom. Tony Austin has declared war against the United States of America, which may be the biggest mistake he’s made in his life. It’s a Block Party 20-year reunion as Tony is reacquainted with former clients. As retaliation for Tony’s war, the Feds are attempting to tie Tony into the criminal enterprises of those clients. His decision is destroying his life and the lives of innocent people close to him. Will Attorney Tony Austin be able to work his magic and pull himself and the many people affected out of this disaster, or will his 20-year winning streak end with him behind bars like a criminal?

Block Party 2

The Afterparty

By: Al-Saadiq Banks

Teenagers, Ahmir and Ahmad Pierson are the offspring of Newark's infamous ghetto legend Donald "Cashmere" Pierson. Ghetto fame and admiration have been a part of their lives for as far back as they both can remember, thanks to Cashmere. Cashmere's addiction to the fast life and the love for his two sons have always conflicted but the love his sons have for him has always been unconditional. Nothing in the world means more to them than their father whom they've always held on a pedestal. Ahmir and Ahmad's lives change drastically after they both witness a horrifying act that they'll never forget. The old cliche' is true "for every action there is an opposite, but equal reaction." What becomes of two traumatized teens whose hearts are filled with vengeance? What does their future hold for them? Or do they even have a future?

Block Party 4 (Back 2 Bizness)

The Return of the Mayor

By: Al-Saadiq Banks

The “Free The Mayor Campaign” was a success! But, how long can he remain a free man? Brick City’s infamous kingpin known as the Mayor is shockingly released after serving twelve consecutive summers of the lifelong incarceration that he was originally sentenced to. He owes all thanks to his larger than life, ghetto fabulous attorney, Tony Austin. The twelve year layoff has the Mayor feeling as if the streets miss him and his prosperous hustle game. He feels that the game is in dire need of his expertise to pump life back into it. His hood politics are in order as he embarks on a new and improved campaign. He’s been studying his blueprint for well over a decade and it’s now time to go to work. His mission is simple and smooth, so he thinks, as he puts the wheels and soldiers in place to regain control of the city. The Mayor’s plan seems to be hater and snitch proof for the moment, but that moment doesn’t last very long. His primary goal is to restore the city and lift the recession his way. Nothing will stop him; not even the gang leaders who are now in control or the Feds who trail him step by step. He will stop at nothing until his operation takeover mission has been completed. Will his mission be completed or will he go down in history as just another used-to-be-kingpin whose time has run out?
