"Crucifixion of the Ghetto" Chapter 3 "Hungry Town"

In Chapter 3 of "Crucifixion of the Ghetto" Hungry Town, a chance encounter at the Studio with a Grammy Nominated Songwriter is just the right ingredient the Bigga Staar project needs to get off the ground. Henry K and Bigga travel into Hungry Town, one of Kingston's garrisons to check rising Rastafarian singer Turbulence about a feature on a song.
