Show Notes

Most people remember the Shower Posse for its violence — but behind the guns was a mind far more dangerous. Vivian Blake wasn’t a killer. He was a strategist, a money man, and the architect of one of the most powerful drug syndicates in modern history. From Miami boardrooms to Kingston safehouses, Blake ran the empire with cold precision — until he flipped.Why did the educated co-founder of the Shower Posse betray the very syndicate he built?And did his mysterious death in Jamaica prove he knew too much?This story isn’t just about crime — it’s about betrayal, corruption, and the hidden machinery of global drug politics.Would you have made the same choice he did?
Or would you have died with your secrets?
