Off the record convo I had with Bro. Omar Bey of the Named Moorish Science Temple of Philadelphia we been friends for years...he was a long time resident of Philly before he passed away in 2008
I had a collection of convos recorded and transcribed discussing get infamous philly cats like Major Cox and Lawerence Goodman and situations like the M.O.V.E organization and the HILLTOP HUSTLAS
He always said PHILLY held its own from outsiders on the street tip till the Shower Posse came thru and changed the whole scenery
Based on these reports I dug up seems he was right
27 Died In City In Drug-turf War Pa. Study Cites Black, Jamaican Gangs
A violent war over drugs and turf that erupted between the Jamaican ''Shower Posse" and black drug dealers was responsible for at least 27 homicides in Philadelphia last year, according to a new crime study.
The 65-page Pennsylvania Crime Commission report, officially released today, said longtime black drug dealers, such as convicted dealer James "Big Roach" Nelson and members of the recently identified Junior Black Mafia, are attempting to regain territory taken over by the Jamaicans in West and North Philadelphia.
The leader of the "Shower Posse," so named because members eliminate rivals by showering an area with bullets, was identified as Dennis Lawrence, of 54th Street near Berks, and his second-in-command, Patrick ("T" or ''Trick") Ryan, 25, no address. Neither could be reached for comment.
I’m familiar when the Shower Posse was in that era too.” Ock says. “Shower Posse was the Jamaican dudes. They were moving too. They didn’t believe in nobody owing them five dollars. They’d ride around in the Volvo’s with those baby Uzi’s- spray your whole family.”
And that’s how the war went, death for death on the streets of Philly. Here’s what Tony Black who led the Philly branch of the Shower Posse said of the JBM situation, “The JBM were some clowns. Some of the guys that hustled with me had a beef with them after they left me and went on their own. I think one of the guys killed one of their leaders.”
The JBM started about 85,” Ock, the Muslim brother in the feds says. “From like 85 to 90 they had the city on lock. A five year run. Aaron had people do shyt for him for real. He had his little crew that put in work for him. A crew that would go all out. A lot of dudes were real nervous around him because of that crew.”

The JBM would shoot it out but they were known for styling and profiling too. They had the clothes, jewelry and the cars. “The Fila sweatsuits, the Gucci sweatsuits- all different colors,” Ock says. “Aaron had a Benz back then- the 300. They were flossing driving Audi’s, BMW’s. On the door where the handles were at they had JBM emblems on the door handles. They had the rings with JBM and necklaces. When they got busted everybody said JBM meant, ‘Just Blowing Money.’ They went through everywhere. It was rough in South Philly but the JBM went down there. You had cats that was scared to come down there.”
Syrup was big with the JBM too. “There’s a syrup spot down in South Philly that the JBM used to go to. One on 17th and Jefferson. That’s called 7 block where all the syrup was at. Everybody was on the syrup back then. Motherfukkers in Philly been drinking the syrup since the 70s.
Syrup was like one of the choice drugs with pot and cocaine before crack hit the scene.” Drunk on syrup, with money and power in spades and high caliber weapons galore the JBM were some dangerous dudes. But they were particularly nasty to their own.
“Leroy ‘Bucky’ Davis was one of Aaron’s lieutenants in southwest. He got killed in 89-90,” Ock says. “He was a little short dude, vicious fighter. He was a boxer. He was high up in that chain of JBM. Him and Aaron was like that. Him and Aaron had Southwest Philly.
Bucky got killed on Creighton Street. He was coming home from a party with some broad. Bucky was trying to get a key into the door and these jokers shot him. He tried to get his gun out of his Ostrich skin boots and got aired out. The girl got in the car with the dudes and nobody ever saw the girl again, they said Aaron put the hit on Bucky because it was when Aaron was locked up and Bucky was supposed to get him some money and didn’t.

And we already told them this in the other threads. Any out-of-towner that came and tried to set up shop, got sent packing, so they now avoid Philly altogether.
