West LA be having some pretty boy/privileged type crips(PBG, Mansifield, SchoolYard.
Use to stay in West BLVd hood and they hated the schoolyards.
I grew up in geer gang hood. and I'll vouch west la known as the pretty boy hustler hood area. the bloods in the region are the killers.

I moved to the valley, whitest part aka sherman oaks right when highschool started. This was mid 90s (ps. Watch the movie mid 90s for proof as I lived that life for 2-3 yrs), everyone wore vans even the blacks skaters too. Val surf was the skateboard shop mecca. Only rival being Melrose or Fairfax a stone throw away. We were odd future 10 yrs before odd future. These are the people wearing vans. NO ONE in compton,watts, south central even westside were wearing vans.

90s I was a teen with a car and in them streets from the burbs to the hood every single day. You could catch me on Melrose to ladera to 56th and Avalon to city walk. I had hood friends and skater friends because my mom moved me out and so I'd flip back and forth


Alex Thomas grew up in that area too. He breaks it down good here:

He not light skinned he the same color as me and pharrell. just medium brown.

And he a westside crip. westside is the pretty boy hustler side of LA

I will admit that our side has an unusual amount of light skinned and hazel eyed black folks. 1/4 of my elementary (baldwin) were light brites with hazel eyes. Our side of the city were known for having the pretty boujie females. and not the light brites but the caramel browns with slim thick body and well done hair. I grew up around females that looked like Jada growing up :noah:

I have a theory on why black folks in this part of the city look diff but that's for another thread.


make a thread on it breh :lupe:

I'm not gonna say they punks are anything but compared to South Central crips they were considered not to be taken serious.
They almost killed Terrance Howard in the 80s cause he was from a rival gang they was beefing with. He was given a pass for warning 1 of them from being killed earlier.
Terrence Howard crip? Aint that nikka from Ohio or something?

I remember everyone on here saying dj mustard took bay areas sound

I kept asking dudes to post some joints for comparison

They kept dodging the question

When they finally posted the songs they sounded NOTHING like mustard beats lol
