Naeema Cole knows what it is like out in them streets. She learned at an early age that the game consists of two parties – the player and the played. Strangely though, she was a willing component in this competition. Although at the young age of 11, her mother was killed by a drunk driver and her father was never a participant in her life, she had a loving grandfather who took her in.
Unfortunately she chose the streets over him which led to her being alone and pregnant at the age of 16.
Hoping that her son may just have a chance, she put him up for adoption. Knowing that life goes on regardless, Neema became a barber’s apprentice. This gig was enough to pay bills and support her marijuana habit. Eventually Neema falls in love and gets married. But after five plus years she concludes that she is her own person and leaves her hubby in the dust.
While living her life, Neema finds out that her 14-year- old baby had been brutally murdered. Brandon (her son) was involved with a gang of renowned New Jersey bank robbers and one of them may have killed him. Neema, feeling that the choices he made was her own fault, sets out to get retribution. Eventually, she goes undercover and earns the trust of the crew. Soon the Queen (Neema) is regarded as one of their own. With wheels set in motion, she is ready to avenge Brandon’s death. But problems arise when she falls in love with the gang leader. Neema is now at the crossroads and her emotions is calling all the shots. Kiss The Ring gives a gripping, in-depth look at the hood and it denizens. It offers a healthy dose of realism.
