When seventeen-year-old, Kendrick "K-Roc" Snyder sees that his mother is in need of help, he tries to come up with a last-minute solution to her problems. Kendrick turns to the grimy streets of Dallas, Texas for what is supposed to be temporary but somehow gets trapped by the lifestyle. Within a year's time, the squad he's put together, including his thirteen-year-old baby brother, Kenny, is starting to reap the benefits of the neighborhood's drug trade. Being so young makes the team the target of a few savages, and before the real money even begins rolling in, some life changing situations occur, leaving Kendrick in the position to make catch twenty-two decisions. His biggest problem arises when he crosses paths with Black, a career jackboy. Black gains a profit from his sleek armed robbery on Kendrick's clique but loses something much more valuable than the money he's collected. In order for him to get back his most prized possession, he has to return what he's taken, with interest. What happens when he learns that his partner in crime has lost everything they stung for? Realistic, dramatic, and down to earth, Business As Usual is based on everyday life in urban America. Unlike the typical fiction tale, it is filled with real-life experience and will teach you things about life from a few perspectives some will never understand. Some call it a heartless game, some call it a way of life. We call it Business as Usual.
