      100% facts. I love Compton and Watts and the jungles. I also love the Bay Area..I’m from Omaha nebraska but when I moved here I got a “welcome home party”. That’s what he was describing when he said JS mom said “he’s not from around here” .. if you ever seen “The wood” it’s a perfect description of so cal. When Stacey said “I beat his ass and he took it like a G.. that’s why JS left him in that park alone with the dickies on. He wanted to see how quick he can adapt. Thats the whole purpose of jumping someone in. If you survive they know you a “real one”. He got the role cause he passed the test.

    When season 1 started I didn't even think he was going to be able to carry his role thru that season.....now I am sitting here all flabbergast. Not only was I wrong, I was dead wrong. It is fabulous to see someone grow as Damson does and the end of Season 4 was legend. I so look forward to season 5.

    A second ago i just finished watching the latest epi. All i can do is shake my head. The scene with Franklin and his Momma at the airport made ME cry. And the last seen with his ex-girlfriend, with Franklin leaving his cane on the chair, to walk out that door LIMP-LESS, made me jump out of MY chair and whooop it up like i done lost my mind, lol. Best mf crime drama EVER. EVER. And NOBODY could have played Franklin other that Damson. Nobody.

      He just did a movie called outside the wire its on Netflix, he's playing an American, actually wasn't a bad movie...
      It's a action movie, but i think he'd do well in other genres.
      I think he has to much potential to be limited to thug #1, dealers, hood guy, etc etc roles, he's been in other movie's, he's just being noticed by the American audience.
