BMF season 3 is officially underway. The hit series is inspired by the real-life rise to power of brothers Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory (Demetrius 'Lil Meech' Flenory) and Terry "Southwest T" Flenory (Da'Vinchi) in the 80s. Through an illicit drug business, they were able to build a powerful criminal enterprise, which of course was peppered with danger for not only them but also for those caught in their world. 

After last season saw the Flenory family fall victim to various temptations as it pertains to matters of lust and love, and the brothers continue to expand their operation to Atlanta, many fans are waiting to see what happens next. 

With that said, here’s everything we know about BMF season 3.

BMF season 3 plot

Here is an official brief synopsis of what fans can look forward to in season 3:
"Inspired by true legends, BMF continues the story of brothers Demetrius 'Big Meech' Flenory and Terry 'Southwest T' Flenory, who rose through the illegal drug trade from the depths of poverty in Detroit to the heights of fame and fortune across America. In season three, Meech moves to Atlanta to expand their empire, facing rival crews and crossing paths with burgeoning hip-hop legends, while Terry holds down the fort in Detroit, facing formidable rivals, old and new."

Additionally, in an interview with Variety, series showrunner Heather Zuhlke stated of season 3:

"What you’re going to see is the fallout and somatically all of our characters are in a season of reinvention across the board – Charles, Lucille, Meech, Terry, Bryant and Jin. There’s consequences to all these things. So you’re going to see all of that dramatized moving forward."
