Did Lil Wayne make being a blood mean something in rap?

[Trilogy]

All I know is nobody was on that Blood talk/lingo til after YG dropped My Krazy Life

 

[AMcV'88]

2000's onward....the guy on the right

everybody was crip walking and they were drip feeding it in videos since the late 90's and then with Bout It Bout It video they went full tilt.
being around them made Wayne more comfortable from there you know the rest.

 

[GunRanger]

Suge had nothing to do with it.


Claiming crip was way more popular until dipset, then wayne took it to a different level. It became cool to be a blood.

" G from the TREE that been down for years "

[CrimsonTider]

i do remember future sayin he puts red all on his shoes on itchin off astronaut status

but i dont remember too much other blood talk coming from him in his music

 

[Striving For Greatness]

Cali rappers and Dipset

 

[old boy]

lol of course obviously

thanks for that, i forgot... dont listen to this record too much

It was definitely Jim Jones and then Wayne

But, people are under playing how big a role DMX and the Ruff Ryders played in that Blood shyt though, especially on the East Coast. They played a big role as far as the streets and rap. All the Bloods in NY were on that DMX shyt HEAVY in 1998-2000.

wasnt that jimmy and juelz... and Wayne sharked them

Probably, somebody else said it and with the old Taliban shyt, it makes sense.

I think Wayne just elevated it a lil like he did with bape when the clipse was rocking it.

Game is a good modern one, but Wayne made that shyt cooler.

Member those red Arab wraps everybody was copping cause of him?

You might be right about game, though.

Dipset put him on to that

Rememebr the talibans lol

Cops was shook to death in the heights when nikkas was wearing those

When he dropped flesh of my flesh that 031 blood shyt popped something crazy out here...

I didn’t even know New Orleans had Bloods

 

[010101]

Future affiliated tho

then everyone is affiliated because who doesn't know some nikkas who flamed up especially if rapping or trapping is your vocation

[ISO]

It was Dipset

This shyt got so bad in NY that my principal had an assembly on gang activity/affiliation.

It was lil kids false claiming Bloods.
