About this listen

Frank Matthews was the black Godfather. In an era when the Mafia controlled the heroin trade with a vise grip, Matthews was able to bypass them and get his own connection for heroin in Corsica. It's said that he generated millions of dollars of cash from drug sales in the early 70s and had apartments full of drug money. He also organized Black dealers nationwide and had them all getting drugs from him. He was the original Superfly and American gangster.

Needs a different voice

Narration wasn't authentic sounding. I knew most of the story. Went to school with Frank Jr in Brooklyn
