This was the first Harry Davis film I had ever seen and it was just great. I especially enjoyed Shaka Don, she is the mosy genuine in my eyes. I really liked that the women got something from them either selling drugs, or their ass. Its a shame that us women have to do those things. Atleast Champagne got a nice house, even if it was doing that. She is still maintaining with her young daughter. Some women do that and forget about their children. I recommend this film to everyone. I applaud Harry Davis & Associates for their insights and await another original project.

I was entertained by this video - It gave a glimpse into the gangsta gal world and the problems they face being in a man's World. They didn't seem to have any love for guys in general. Mary J is in it too - she calls herself a gangstress - hmmm... ok Mary - whatever :o)

OMG! OR maybe I shouldnt say that. I agree with another member Tony Lewis ..if it would have been about hoes then yeah...it was great...I think it started off in the right direction but somewhere along the way the camera man kinda got sidetracked and it turned into straight porn. How to make a porn movie and "Champagne" and all her glasses...whatever..became the focus. It was hilarious. It became a documentary about the life a a shake dancer. The only true down Gangstress up in there was Shaka Don. Why didnt he just feature her and the taxi cab trick. They were gangstresses. By going after them he could have hooked himself up with a lot other true Gangstresses. Next time just do Shaka Don Gangstresses at Large!

I've been blessed to see many of his projects and this was what started it all!

He has a deep love for showing a woman's strength and in this documentary it is evident to see what some real women ahve to do to stay alive, to better themselves, to succeed...given their circumstances and environment.

Not your average documentary.
Gritty, grimey, glorious...GANGSTRESSES!

a wonderful movie about woman and all of their struggles. an excellent movie that i would recommend to all women. touches on hustling, stripping, stealing, pregnancy, etc.

This video shows how females operate in the drug game. It also shows how hookers and female adult entertainers earn their bread. Mary J. Blige and Lil' Kim have cameos in this video. So does Az, Tupac Shakur, and Russell Simmons. While Mary makes the claim that she is a gangstress, she is in a different league.

a very intense feature about women in urban america or the america that we choose not to see. The storyline guides through the tough and not so glamorous choices that young women are making in order for their children not to follow the inevitable footsteps that have been in place for generations. An excellent movie, very heartbreaking.

...this film should have actually been called "Hoes", because that's what most of the women in this film can be perceived to be. There was only one girl in this film whom I'd actually label a "Gangstress" (the blonde with the gun and the fur coat). Maybe if this were called "Hoes", I might be able to rate it higher.

If the price is right for you, it might be worth a look. I got mine for free, so the price was definitely right.

this is bad, shows what women must do in order to survive in the streets, also lets us know as black people are at in these days, and times, reality, there are few black men these days, so the woman has to step forth and be the boss, shows how women are mistreated by black men-like when dude came in and beat that woman and the bruises were shown, or when dude got mad-and shot his girlfriend, this is the reason why so many black women are hating black men, whites want to see us kill each other, see our men in jail, and our women sell our souls on the streets- these women have become prostitutes, drug dealers, drug users, porn stars, thieves, hell anything to get by-i can tell champagne did'nt really enjoy the porn industry-makes you think is the money worth all that, this is urban drama-that tells us all as black people that we should wake up, or others like myself get another message that we cannot be saved-and wer'e all headed for doom.
