Before he was known as “Chad in Amsterdam”, Chad Bilyeu spent a decade in Washington, DC, where he lived many lives. Most notably, he worked at and graduated from Georgetown University.
However, unbeknownst to most, he also sold copious amounts of drugs there.
About The Re-Up #1:
The Re-Up is a graphic novel and a crime story unlike any other, as it details how Bilyeu sold drugs from 2004 to 2008 at Georgetown University in Washington, DC, and later throughout the East Coast of America. The life of a drug dealer is given nuance and depth rarely seen, as told directly by the person who actually lived it.
“[The] everyday trials, tribulations, hassles, and headaches of life as a dope dealer are presented here in completely unvarnished, de-glamorized fashion, and the end result is an almost RADICALLY authentic look at an occupation that is usually either shrouded in secrecy or exaggerated to such a degree as to make its representation functionally useless. By contrast, this is "warts and all" stuff all the way, and at the risk of sounding absolutely crazy, it's probably precisely the sort of thing that the drug business has NEEDED for a long time.”
