For nearly two decades, his life revolved around crime, drugs, and prison. In this raw and unfiltered interview, Jay exposes the harsh realities of gang life—how it operates, the betrayals, the violence, and the corruption that keeps the cycle going.

From running prison operations to surviving riots and stabbings, Jay shares the truth behind the glorified street life that so many young people are drawn to. But in the end, was it worth it? After years of violence, he found himself questioning everything.
