The life of crime is a complicated one, especially when there’s family involved. BMF (a.k.a Black Mafia Family) is making its highly-anticipated return with Season 2. Adapted from the true story of the Black Mafia Family, the crime drama television series centers on the rags-to-riches story of the organization’s two ringleaders-slash-brothers: Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory and Terry "Southwest T." Flenory. From money laundering to drug trafficking, the brothers do whatever they can to establish their business, and at the same time, make a name for themselves on both a national and global level - all in the name of pursuing the American dream.
BMF stars Demetrius Flenory Jr., the son of the real-life Demetrius “Meech” Flenory, playing none other than his father. Da’Vinchi stars as Terry “Southwest T” Flenory. Other cast members include Russell Hornsby, Michole Briana White, Myles Truitt, Steve Harris, La La Anthony, and Kelly Hu. A couple of big names are expected to appear in Season 2 as guest appearances, notably, SNL cast member Leslie Jones, Caresha Romeka Brownlee of hip-hop duo City Girls, and Academy-Award-winning actress Mo'Nique.

Still set in late 1980s Detroit, the new season sees the return of brothers Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory (Flenory Jr.) and Terry "Southwest T" Flenory (Da’Vinchi) as they climb their way out of poverty and create what’s now considered as one of the country’s most influential crime families: Black Mafia Family. In this season, Meech is even more serious about the business, and his sights are set outside of Detroit. Meanwhile, Terry plans on getting his education at school while establishing a legitimate car-ride service with his dad. But throughout the season, chaos ensues and the two brothers unite.
Despite being at risk of losing everything, the duo strives to become stronger than ever and implement a new vision for themselves and their company. Developing alliances along the way, such as Goldie, a sophisticated Atlanta strip club owner who ensures Meech has his future settled out. The brothers face virtually insurmountable difficulties as they expand the business beyond Detroit to Lansing, Ohio, and even the South, eventually coming face-to-face with a bloody battle for the reigning territory and a devastating discovery regarding a member of their own crew.
What Is BMF About?
