"It's not a crime to be blood 🩸 Jim Jones admits he made Ms commercializing gang culture & says he doesn’t regret popularizing his past affiliations.

[ReasonableMatic]

He’s probably knee deep in the gang culture and there’s no way out Like they say “blood in, blood out”. Still a bad look overall.

Gang culture set Black communities back a 100 years.

Ppl who are friends or even related either being born or lead into opposition, for some goofy shyt young adults made up and old ass nikkas abide by.

Like White Supremacy breathing down necks ain’t enough.

Goofy shyt. Lost nikka behavior. It needs to be shamed.

You forgot Wayne was around Mack 10 before Jim Jones came on the scene. Wayne had a red bandana hanging out his left side (which was the wrong side, but he didn’t know that because he were just starting to claim Blood as an adult) in the “Get Your Shine On” video.

Wayne was rocking Blue rags before that song…


It’s crazy how no one called out Birdman and Wayne for set trippin either.

The right/left side gets changed up from cities that have both Chicago and LA gangs. Bloods aligned more with the 5/people nation (hats broke off to the left) and crips aligned with Folks/GDs (broke off to the right)

LA bloods don't rep the 5 iirc

Idk when la bz and cz started repoing to sides, mostly it was colors out there and in Chicago it was more the sides

Gangs should’ve clicked up and go against these guys like Trump who really does damage to everyone else. But rappers like Jim Jones are bought by these record labels to promote that lifestyle.

Mack wasn’t flamed out until Bang Or Ball

He was dropping clues, though

Foe Life

Try to guess the color of my shoelaces

It was all about the hood and that 400 block

Gangs back then protected the community…



That was the original objective of the Crips and Bloods until the crack era.


Even in the crack era, there was still some codes.


U couldn’t get at women or children or u was gonna be dealt with

U couldn’t snitch and if u did, you’d be dealt with

Even rappers weren’t gangbanging openly and broadcasting it.


Record Labels back then were scared of that element ever since NWA

Banging On Wax wasn’t that big…

It flew under the radar due to DR.


Most of the guys on Banging On Wax died in real life
