Sundiata was born in the great country of Benin, Africa, to proud parents. His father came from generations of great Dahomey warriors. Even as modern times changed the landscape of Benin life, Sundiata's father still practiced their traditional customs as a Dahomey warrior and their voodoo religion. Benin's corrupt government, now ran by the military, forced more and more demands on the people, making it impossible to live as free men and to provide a living for their families.

Sundiata, along with his younger brother and sister, fled to America for a better life. Once in America, he soon found out that the warm welcome he thought he would receive from African Americans wasn't what he expected, causing him to grow a disdain for his people, and he would use them to build one of the greatest drug empires the world had ever seen.
