Watchlist:

Street pimps, all of them African-American, discuss their lives and work: getting started, being flamboyant, pimping in various U.S. cities, bringing a woman into their group, taking a woman from another pimp, and the rules and regulations of pimping. The men are clear: it's about money.

Why you might like this:

Fans of gritty, realistic documentary-style films will appreciate the raw, unfiltered insight into the lives and perspectives of real-life African-American street pimps provided by director Albert Hughes in the 2000 film American Pimp.
