ACAAN: "ICEBERG, ICE COLD, I CRAZZZY!"

Ayo, ayo, ayo!

Y’all already know who it is -

RUSTY IN DA HOUSEEEEE!!!

But for real, why y’all actin’ like I said this is "THE" best ACCAN ever?

Get your stuff together, homies. I said it’s ONE of the best in the game, and I’m standin’ ten toes down on that, ya dig? It's straight fire. No cap.

Let me hit you with the real spill, though -

Before I was out here boostin' cars as a Kia Boy, I was just a regular young buck like you. Magic books? Bet. I was deep in that life. Mama was all proud of me, flexin’ ‘cause I could pull off tricks for her coworkers. This was before I made the news for all the wrong reasons.

One of the first ACAAN routines I peeped still goes hard. It was a Barrie Richardson routine. I was a lil’ homie back then. Can't remember where I learned it. But I can almost swear it came from one of them $5 single trick booklets? It was different than anything I've seen in his book trilogy set, but it laid the foundation for a whole lotta heat that came after.

Then Mitchell Kettlewell hit us with Ice Cold ACAAN through Ellusionist. Straight-up banger. Had that same kinda energy as Barrie’s routine but better. And once you read them highlights, it’s like, “Yo, this can’t be topped.”

Or can it?

Because then, outta the blue, Shameer pulls up with some next-gen tech approach, burnin’ shit down like a damn rocket with ICEBERG. I mean, fam, how much better could it possibly get?!? 

I mean, the man took all the best things about Ice Cold, stuffed it inside some Dry Ice to make that shit even colder, and created an authentic approach with the best elements of ACAAN that will absolutely BURN your audiences with a level of amazement that can't possibly be backtracked.

HOT shit, fam.

So on my quest for the holy grail of ACAAN, Barrie Richardson set the tone. Then Kyle came through, ran shit like a king, with his approach that was damn near perfect.

And then… BAM!

Shameer pulls up like a damn tornado, wreckin’ our monthly magic budgets with Iceberg, gettin’ us to spend our commissary bread on magic instead of ramen, toilet paper, and hygiene.

But fuck it, this ACAAN is straight heat.

There ain’t many of us doin’ magic behind bars, but the new fish in here? They swear by Iceberg—iPhone-only, and the iPhone SE’s small enough to sneak through a strip search. The OGs? They stay with ACAAN #6 or Ice Cold. They ain’t fuckin' with that tech, especially the ones about to get out. Ain’t no way they’re riskin' their shot at freedom over some magic, and I don’t blame ‘em.

You already know how I roll—I’m bipolar as hell, and my ACAAN game’s all over the place.

I flip between all three. When I’m doin’ mentalism with blank billets, I can still turn up with Ice Cold. And ICEBERG took it to a new level. Some of these fools don’t even know what I’m talkin’ about, but when you’re locked up, you find ways to mix shit up that don't usually belong together. You can’t have three people mixin’ blank cards, so ACAAN #6 ain’t worth shit with (mostly) blank billets. But when I get a regular deck in my hands? Man, I go the fuck off.

So, look—just do you, fam. There’s other solid ACAANs out there, but don’t try to slide through without considerin’ these three as some real MVPs in the game.

Aight, Gotta dip. I’m starving.

I’m riskin’ it all today. Got plans to swipe an extra biscuit or piece of fried chicken during chow, no doubt.
