Sada Baby on Why He Joined The Bloods At 22 Years Old(VladTV)

[Marlo Barksdale]

never knew meech was crip? I kno his main potna from cpt was and blue da Vinci also. But meech?

Meech was always throwing Crip up when he'd be in the club stacking. Anytime you see video of Meech in the club, he's throwin up C's and likely has a blue rag on somewhere.

For example @2:35

[Sniper]

You graduate college at 22 and he joins a gang?

Interesting...

Usually gang banging is a neighborhood thing that you join from the ages of 12-16.

Anything after that then you’re lame and lost.

There's been Crips and Bloods in DC, I remember spending time in Kenilworth and Deanwood going back 8-9 years and there was Bloods and Crips there, and you had hit ups on mailboxes by the Metro stations...

Landover had a whole bunch of Crips a decade ago...

This notion that Bloods and Crips are new in DC or never were there isnt true, just like it aint true for The Bay, just like it aint true for BR, just like it aint true for Philly, etc. Now, DC and some of these other cities weren't defined by B and C culture, you didn't have The Culture in every block or hood, but The Culture been spinning in and around parts of DC for years...

Have no idea what its on now, its been 3 years since I been to DC but I'm telling you as a Blood from Sacramento I knew, saw, or was introduced to people in DC who were identifying themselves as Crips and Bloods years ago...

..........

To the topic, while I like Sada's music and think he's a pretty unique artist, its been rather obvious that he not from the soil like that. He just like 95% of these other rappers, so I dont hold it against him, most of these dudes were not outside knocking shyt down or making real money off narcotics...

The gang shyt is just a byproduct of the 00s era massive Blood movement in hip hop (primarily Dip, Wayne/Baby, and Game) that made it fashionable to be Bloods, and the era after that is the child of that. I can tell you from Sacramento to VA and NC, places I'm from and been around for years, I can personally remember when there were areas you would never see anyone identifying with that side and over years it transformed, largely (but not in all cases) due to industry influence...

He got the celebrity for cats to give him a pass but a regular dude in real life would have to be cold blooded to be appreciated from the side as one of us if he trying to click up that late in age. shyt is wack...

@getmoney310cpt he said Nellas taxing him lol...

Nah they don't gangbang Bloods and Crips out here in the DC/Pg County area. I live in Landover and i seen none of them over here, Kentland,Palmer Park, Dodge Park, Strafford, Brightseat never banged colors..never

only thing that came close to that was my old neighborhood in Laurel named Kimberly Gardens, some bamma maybe lil over 10 yrs that was locked up was a blood and tried to have the neighborhood claim that but that shyt got ran out of there

NO and i mean no hood in Pg County nor DC could claim them colors, the only Blue and Red banging is Cowboys and Redskins fans


them Baltimore bammas bang that shyt

I didn't never say the neighborhoods were banging it but for sure for sure, I was at a function one night in Landover and there were at least ten Crips in attendance. If they weren't from Landover they were from somewhere in the vicinity...

I wish i could remember the name of the neighborhood...

I spent plenty of time in Kenilworth/Deanwood from Benning Rd to Anacostia to Seat Pleasant, there were Bloods around there and there was Blood graffiti tagged at the Metro and on them blue mailboxes outside and shyt...

I knew of two guys from The District, one who said he got put on in jail in Baltimore but was from DC, the other was from Alexandria and moved to The City, but I also met a couple of they potnas and it would be disingenuous to think everybody around them who represented as Bloods wasn't from DC...

I knew and saw this stuff myself, fam. The cats in Landover were very public with the flags, hand signs, and "cuzz" every other word, which told me they weren't a new thing, they were comfortable in their environment at that party in Landover...

DC got a bunch of them block gangs that function like B and C hoods anyway, just like in Richmond, but its not true that there isnt Bloods and Crips in DC...

Lol @ da comments in this thread.

I aint saying you haven't seen anyone saying they were Blood and Crips, i've worked in a school for many years and you might have kids write ms-13 and blood on bathroom walls, but they doing that to be cool,, wasn't no real gang members. maybe them bammas just moved here from new york, jersey or baltimore

the functions, i used to be deep in the gogos, dc events like Georgia ave day, Unifest, stone soul picnic etc. and i never seen anyone with a bandanna claiming

people around here used to scream where they from proudly, you gonna hear Souf Souf East, places in southeast like 3rd world, simple city, Barry Farms, Condon terrace,Minnesota

we always said Cuz around here, i say it alot

ok, i might not be the only gogo head on this board but if anybody else in here, gogo tapes they always shouted out hoods and affiliations, there is not 1 gogo tape, not a single reference or shout out to anything Blood or Crip, and everybody hood from Pg,DC,Moco, even bamma ass Va has got shouted out by a Band

the rappers from here, if you look at the music videos that have recorded out here, you not going to see a blood or crip, Q da fool, Shy Glizzy, Fat trel, bamma ass Wale, you would atleast see 1 member in they video

 

[Insensitive]

Gang banging is corny.
But you not gang if you started claiming it at 20.
Those fukking people don't know you breh.
When you're that old, you're the neighbor, you're not family.

 

[lightbearerchef]

Fairfield still got Bloods, San Jose got both, Vallejo used to have em but I'm not in tune with where they are now, EPA for sure got Bloods, etc...

People gotta stop saying "The Bay" don't have Bloods and Crips, when they really just mean The City and Oakland, because there are active Blood and Crip gangs in The Bay right now. And you hear mixed shyt about them two all the time, you got nikkas in those cities who will tell you there was The Culture at one point or that its still some stragglers around...



I believe you g but Philly had some, I heard thru word of mouth. Cant say I saw them personally like I did in DC though...



Stones have always been Bloods in Los Angeles...

Ion be in Fairfield. All my time ina V I ain’t never met no bloods but I know them Cuddies tho
