Girls from around the way think they’ve seen it all and know it all. What they don’t know will surprise them and change their lives forever. Take a look at the lives of some street-smart women who’ll learn what living the fast-paced life can mean in the end if you’re not careful.

What if you were raised to be a hooker and, worst of all, your father was your pimp? In “Keepin’ It in the Family,” this isn’t just a nightmare for the Collins daughters, this is reality. Raised without the guidance of their mother, Diamond, Essence, and Chanel were forced onto the streets at a very young age. They were expected to make that money by any means necessary or face the wrath of their daddy, Dallas Collins. Can the girls band together to free themselves from Dallas?

In “Pound Cake,” we bring you to Coney Island, where four friends deal with daily life in one of the deadliest parts of the borough. Pound Cake, a beautiful yet fiery nineteen-year-old, is the leader of the pack. People in the streets know not to mess with Pound Cake or her home-girls. So when a local hustler named Winter impregnates and then abuses Minnie, the youngest in the group, Pound Cake won’t stand for it. She is going to find a way to make him pay.

“So Seductive” introduces you to the world of Cinnamon and Simone. Best friends since childhood, they are every man’s fantasy, and they know it. They love to play with men and get whatever they want from them. But when one of their night’s escapades turns violent, will the girls change, or will they fall prey to the unforgiving Brooklyn streets?

Kayla “Bossy” Ticker is a bona fide product of the streets, spending her time on the grind and settling scores. Years after forming alliances with a couple of the city’s most notorious gangsters, she creates a formula to cook cocaine with a potency most dealers would pay top dollar to get their hands on.

Now in her prime, “Bossy” has gotten tired of looking over her shoulder and watching her own back. The death of her mentor hastens her decision to walk away from the hustle until a new enemy forces her to fight one final battle. Can “Bossy” make it off the streets before it’s too late or will the streets claim her like they have all the rest?

When the police kill her husband in the presence of their young son, Shy McGee becomes a single mother trying to raise boys to men.

Her seventeen-year-old son, Prince, channels his anger into an effort to become king of the streets.

Seeing her son try to step up and take his father’s place, Shy has his back.

Cherise is Shy’s best friend, but she doesn’t like what she’s seeing lately. Cherise has taught her son, Raequan, only one life lesson: how to run hustles. Now Cherise and Raequan are tired of watching the McGee family prosper while they remain at a standstill.

Prince and his identical twin brother, Jayden, are attacked, and the wrong brother takes the bullet. Like an angry mother bear, Shy fights to find out who masterminded the incident. When she discovers the truth, there is no question about how far she’s willing to go to protect her young-minded hustler.
