Because if some federal motherfucker comes through the door, I say, "Hey, it's all in the game." But a City Police? Baltimore City? Heeeell, no! Can't be happenin'! 'cause I know I have raised too much goddamn money for the mayor and his ticket. Hell, no! Ain't no soul in the WORLD that fuckin' ungrateful!
Money laundering? They gonna come talk to me about money laundering? In West Baltimore? Sheeeeeit... Where do y'all think I'm gonna raise cash for the whole damn ticket? From laaaaundromats and shit? From some tiny-ass Korean groceries!? You think I have time to ask a man why he givin' me money? Or where he gets his money from? I'll take any motherfucker's money if he givin' it away!

What do you think of the condos that the grain pier got turned into?
It just feels real and organic but also dramatic. It's a delicate mix between knowing the real world it's portraying but also allowing it to be it a pillar for the fiction it's trying to portray.

It's the dialogue. Feels naturalistic and believable without just being mumbling or "umm, uh, ah, eh, hm" like films that try to use realistic cadence. Especially their use of constant slang, from the police to the papers to the gangs, it doesn't feel like police procedurals that come off like the writer looked up one or two slang terms and has the character throw it out like it's supposed to be impressive.
