Bumpy Johnson, Frank Lucas, American Gangster — the true story behind Harlem’s most famous myth.
Most people know American Gangster and the iconic scene where Bumpy Johnson dies in Frank Lucas’s arms, symbolically passing power to his protégé. But that moment, as powerful as it looks on screen, was never true.

For decades, Frank Lucas portrayed himself as Bumpy Johnson’s right-hand man and successor, a narrative repeated by Hollywood, the media, and even law enforcement. But history tells a very different story — one that was finally corrected by the only person who could never be fooled: Mayme Johnson, Bumpy Johnson’s widow.

When American Gangster was released, Mayme Johnson broke her long silence. With just four words, she dismantled Frank Lucas’s carefully constructed legend and exposed the truth behind his claims. Those words didn’t just insult him — they erased his place in Harlem history.

This documentary dives deep into the real power structure of 1960s Harlem. We examine the true relationship between Bumpy Johnson and Frank Lucas, the unexplained gaps in Lucas’s timeline, and why the so-called “King of Harlem” was never who Hollywood made him out to be.
