Big dreams, big blunts, big rims, and big guns.  its time to get gangsta gangsta.   Ninja and Yo Landi are wheelchair-bound lovers and real gangstas.  They live in the outskirts ofcivilization, they shoot guns for fun, smoke massive joints, and sleep in the woods. They don’t have any bling to show for their gangsta cred, but the world deserves to know who they are.  They’re tramps, and their wheels are starting to fall off.
