If you’re anything like me than most of the preceding information is probably new to you: Guy Fisher was one of Harlem Worlds biggest Drug Lords during the1970’s so big in fact that he was able to become the first Black man to purchase the Apollo Theater. Unfortunately for Guy the demise of his empire and ownership of the Historical Apollo Theater would soon come to end. Okay so let’s rewind a little bit, there was a man by the name of Nicky Barnes aka Mr. Untouchable I’m sure most of you are familiar with him, he was depicted by Cuba Gooding Jr. in the blockbuster hit American Gangster. Anywayz this Barnes character was sort of like the mentor to Guy Fisher; he molded him and showed him the ropes of the drug world at that time. Now fast forwarding a little bit it would later be Guy Fisher whose success in the drug business became comparable if not surpassing that of his previous mentor Nicky Barnes, soon after, both Barnes and Fisher were indicted for several drug related charges. Prosecutor and later New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani proposed if Barnes would work with investigators to basically rat some of the rest of the drug lords involved with New York drug trade out, then they could possibly see about lowering Barnes life sentence of imprisonment. Well long story short Barnes sang his little heart out in regards to his previous protégé: Fisher causing him to be convicted where he is still serving the remainder of his life sentence in Allenwood Federal Correctional Center. How sad, and to top it all off when Barnes was released after 25 yrs in 1998 he released his book MR. UNTOUCHABLE, and the book kind of had a ha ha naney naney boo boo tone in relation to Fisher and his current situation stating things like "I hope you think about where i put you every day until you die." Its times like this where you wish snitching was a federal offense in which snitches are prosecuted and sentenced to a lifetime of STITCHES!
