I don't get why NY didn't just start their own gangs. Why bite off LA? Chicago had the GDs, BDs, etc. Yes. I know Chicago's gangs came first. And yes, I know gangs are stupid. I'm saying this purely in an objective sense.

Welcome to the internet where "nikkas" (using that lightly )act like black people dont get clowed for being illiterate and getting thrown in slow classes

When you come online you get told that kinda shyt gets you a "badge of honor"
Idk how it is now but that's how it was when I was younger.

All these rap nikkas fake fam


This shyt been explained a million times. I’m pretty sure in that video Baby is saying his line about having TVs in the headrest, thus making the shapes that look like Cs. And before Mack 10 got in there they didn’t give a shyt what colour rah they had on it was jist an outfit and the Solja rag thing they had going. They wore red, blue, camo, it had nothing to do with sets.

Can't forget Black Spades before Zulu's.


What about Crips? Around the same time? :jbhmm:


Crips in NYC been around since the 80's. came from the Panamanians who came here with direct ties to R60 DG30 R30 in California. they just were not as big as they are now. there were more crews homegrown gangs...but they faded as drug crews took over. Savage Nomads...La Familia even though they are still around as old heads come home...Netas and LK had fully sanctioned groups as well. alot of ethnic dominican gangs. if you remember white tee gang...DDP...who eventually got absorbed in the Trini's then youre around the same age. far as racial lines...on the streets they reflect behind the wall. black and hispanics always been at each other throats in the prisons. Bloods were at war with the Kings, now theyre at work with the trini's and its been splinning over into the streets but nothing like what ya see out in LA.

Surprised nobody mentioned FTW

Not sure if it was just a Harlem thing but they were way more feared and ruthless than bloods or crips

At least in Harlem anyway :yeshrug:

Creating a gang set is like inviting all your friends to a online game match and then giving the crew a name and if they do good .. u knew who started the shyt if they do bad u knew who started that shyt. Tax

Had a white tee fam member, and a high ranking DDP best friend. shyt was insane in the early 2000

DDP hold no weight in Jail though. Trini's running them jail cells. You turning trini in jail no way around it.
