From his humble beginnings in East London, Cameron White rapidly rose in the London club scene of the 1980s and early 1990s. After his initial spectacular success as a drug dealer—and an embarrassment of cash—he fell foul of notorious London criminals, the Doherty brothers, and was forced to flee to North America. There he climbed aboard a cocaine-fueled roller coaster, which carried him from dealing with psychotic, crack-dealing Jamaican gangsters in New York to West Coast power meetings for a Hollywood talent agency.
