State Property

Director: Abdul Malik
State Property is about Beans (played by Rapper Beanie Sigel) trying to make money a quick way because where he lives it's not that's much opportunity for people. He starts his own mafia type crew with people including Bleek (played by rapper Memphis Bleek). They start a drug trafficking business and run into completion when Boss Dame (played by Damon Dash) finds out they are selling drugs on his turf.

The actors in this movie are mostly Rocafella Records music artist. This was Rapper Beanie Singels second movie he played the same type of aggressive person but he was less comical in this movie. This was Damon Dash's first movie he ever did. The writer/Director Abdul Malik Abbott work on this movie was different because he usually did music videos and sitcoms so this was very different from what he does.

I liked this movie because it was low budget but you forgot about all of that when you watch it. The acting was better then you would think. The rappers did a great job acting and they used the alienation effect with Beans in the right parts of the movie and they still made you believe them. I liked how they put real situations that people go through with money and problem. This movie had a great overall story line, plot and acting so I give it an A.
