Decepts wouldve been the only crew I would've joined if they was still around instead of the crip and blood shyt going on

Decepts and Lo Lifes was the 80's....90's was 5% and Latin Kings before the Bloods would appear. That 5% influence was serious for the better part of the early mid90's/

Decepts was early mid 80's with trickles in the early 90's. The Latin Kings and 5% were heavy in jail and in the streets. Bloods in Rikers was 96/97 but prior to that there was a small set in Red Hook and a small set of Rolling 30's in W Harlem. We used to laugh at the concept of banging with Cali colors then all of a sudden everything changed in 97.

Not that I'm aware of. Pretty sure he had knowledge of self tho. Filmed parts of his P tribute video in front of the Allah School in Medina.

Steele has a couple of nice vids on the origins of the Deceps, and its a few mini documentaries floating around on them.

I remember reading a pretty long and interesting article on Megatron's girl who turned her life around and became a social worker after he got killed and the Deceps started to fade away.

Wasnt P a muslim or god body and maybe thats why?

The Empire State
P. wrote about it in his book and he's said it on one of his last interviews especially the one with Questlove's podcast on Pandora. P. went mad in depth on that one. P. spoke about stuff that wasn't even in his autobiography -- crazy enlightening to his and Hav's upbringing.

Essentially, he said that nearly everyday after school they'd be waiting outside his high school (the performing arts school where he met Hav). They would rob everyone for everything and that made P. and Hav roll with knifes and he said that was the starting point to being turned into the street life because he always had to be aware.

Wrong :ufdup:

The 5% Nation was before the 90's. it was its strongest in the 80's in NYC. I knew dudes who had knowledge of self before Transformers even came out, god rallies were being held everywhere in BK, and you'd see ciphers of older dudes building. Also, the Latin Kings were strong in the 80's too, I used to live in Bushwick at one point so trust me I know, it was the Netas that got strong in the 90's.

Anyway, I knew Jamal aka Rock since he was a kid. We used to call him KRS because he had a big nose like him and he didn't rap. He used to be quiet until Brownsville changes him, Sethlow projects. He used to go to Lafayette HS too.

:stopitslime:


Aint no wrong...U are quoting me correcting someone......And 5% wasnt a gang......5 % was the 60's Father Allah aka Clearence 13 X did his thing in the 60s when Malcolm was still alive. 5% wasn't even a gang but they were considered a gang by outsiders and police in the 90's, thats why I mentioned them...Even till this day I dont consider them a gang, I'm speaking on the factions of what would be considered a "gang" in the 90's......Nobody was calling the 5% a gang in the 80's except the police......The police was also calling the Black Panthers/New Black panthers a gang.....we didnt call them that.....5% wasnt a gang'.....NYC was more into crews in the 90's before the Bloods popped up in the late 90's
