I Got a Crush On You
Growing up as the "dirty kid" in his neighborhood, Kemal has always had it tough. With his mother dead from a mysterious overdose and his snitch father doing a bid Upstate, 11-year-old Kemal is left to raise himself out on the mean streets of Brooklyn. The women who were once friends with his mother slip him sympathy plates whenever they can, the men want nothing to do with him because of his father's treacherous ways, and the kids who were once his friend bully him while the adults turn a blind eye. Kemal is a pariah and everyone treats him like he's invisible. Except Mink, the fly girl of the block who is a gracious as she is beautiful. Knowing that she was out of his league, Kemal always accepted her grace and crushed on her from afar.
Ten years has passed and after being put on by his best friend and prominent hustler, Loot, Kemal is gone and replaced with Lucky Lewis. With his superb math skills and an eye for location, it doesn't take long for Lucky to move up in rank and become one of the most respected lieutenants in Brooklyn. He's celebrating the fruits of his splendor when he bumps into a down-and-out Mink. Barely conscious and gripping a dirty book bag, Mink looks nothing like the girl he fell in love with a decade ago. Lucky takes her home, cleans her up, and the two pick up right where they left off, with Lucky in the position to make Little Mink his woman. Little does he know, the sultry vixen has other plans in mind.
The little Mink that everyone has known and loved is gone, replaced with someone far more sinister. With dreams of snatching her ex-boyfriend's empire from under his feet, Mink discovers the opportunity of a lifetime with Lucky, who has the resources and respect to get her the power she needs. Using her body, mind, and deadly force, Mink wraps Lucky around her well manicured finger, making him a pawn in a deadly game of cat and mouse that will either leave both of them reigning over an empire or in exile. Willing to do anything to secure her seat at the head of the table, Mink is stuck wondering whether her heart of ice will help her dreams of building her own empire come true, or will she end up crushed?

I didn’t make it far in this one. It seemed to be a story that was all about labels and the situation just didn’t seem fitting. Lucky makes it out and to find Mink the way he did and then she turns around and is spending his money on labels like she wasn’t found in that condition was just over the top. I’ll pass on this one.
