Eventually, they went from hanging in the neighborhood to the hustle game. Q is that nigga. Loved by few, hated by many, but damned sho' respected by all. Ballers envied him, women wanted him.

With the support of his only true love Van and the respect of all the O.G.s in the Carolinas, nobody's safe from his wrath.
