Overview
It's always wise to fling the door open when opportunity comes knocking. Well, these industrious young brothers didn't have that kind of patience. They saw opportunity walking down the street and they mugged it. In this amazing true story, 'The Organism' describes the functionality of a wildly intelligent and abnormally disciplined group of teenagers. Back in 1988, Knoxville, TN wasn't ready for what this collaboration of enterprising young minds could devise but was forced to suffer it anyway. These college kids created a business platform that turned an entire city on its ear - while they were full-time students! The group was led by an extraordinary power duo. Busara Dizzy was the master planner. If he put it on paper, it was lethal. Sometimes literally. Motown was a Detroit hustler with a classy flair. He was committed to making money and very little distracted him from his mission. Together their cleverness provided successes for them where their experience couldn't. Along with Poppy, Waukee Talkie, B-Dub and Greco, these young entrepreneurs formed a brotherhood that couldn't be shaken. Oh, but it was tested. Scores of challenges arose, from outside their circle and within. Their crew faced a daunting number of obstacles; competitors, clients, police, other students and themselves. These hungry entrepreneurs bravely trudged through their perils to boldly reshape an entire city by introducing a lethal product. They undoubtedly had the wherewithal to bring the city to its knees. The question is: was it all worth it?

About the author
THE ORGANISM, Is a collective of Men whom met over 30 years ago in college. Over this course of time, we have endured a myriad of Joys and Pains. Our primary goals are to share our experiences, life lessons and our matriculation from adolescents to Men. With the hope that it will help some other adolescents and young men to see the errors in our thinking, and not make similar heartaches for themselves.
