i won't act like i ever know about all the ins and outs of the gang shyt in DC. but i do know that shyt is broken down into crews and its by blocks; from the quadrants to the streets. i think one day, i was around some peers of mine who stayed in Anacostia who broke it all down to me one day since i was from the south. but yeah, back to the battle rap shyt.

I'll address this but I genuinely don't want to hijack a battle thread with this, just wanted to address the Drugz thing, but I'll explain it quickly.

I'm not in the loop with the new generation so I'll speak on how it was when I was a youngin. We (and I did it for some time so I'll include myself) represented our neighborhoods and any crew formation was on the basis of that (in fact you didn't really form anything, the shyt just existed and you and your friends just folded into that shyt once you got a certain age). In addition, you had the heavy hitters (in terms of people dealing) sometimes had groups that included people from different neighborhoods for the purposes of pumping in different sections of the city and you MIGHT have groups of hitters that formed a coalition that committed murders for hire (although most of the violence was just done by the young people representing their neighborhoods). That's it. The gang shyt never existed here, at least not in DC during the crack era (maybe they had old gangs back in the day like on some gangs of new york shyt, I couldn't tell you).

I remember watching Colors with my uncle when I was younger and asking him why these dudes was wearing team colors and coordinating clothes and shyt. It made no sense to me. I remember asking him if these dudes were wearing uniforms. That's how oblivious I was to the shyt, I had no point of reference for any of that from out here.

I'm sure they support the homie, but damn man, must've been rough watching the bag fumbled away like that when you're powerless to do anything about it. Props to Nick for giving them boys a platform to make good money though.

Man that nikka Drugz is like two years younger than me if Riggz accurately quoted that boy's age. I'm also still out and about in DC all the time (although not in the type of spots that I used to frequent, I literally mean just through the city) and I don't see any signs of any type of gang influence, but I can't speak to what's happening in certain parts of Maryland and Virginia. But as I said, Drugz is about my age so I know for a fact that the nikka didnt grow up anywhere near no Piru gang shyt if he's actually from here like he said he is, and on top of that we know that he picked the shyt up fukking with Twork, so Im guessing the shyt he's claiming is rooted out there anyway.

I'll concede the point that I'm getting older though, shyt is an accurate statement

Chess got washed by a lite Magic. And he washed his damn self

 

[T-K-G]

nikka got the jbp cover, phone call, AND they played multiple haymakers from the battle that's really crazy considering where his career was at just a week ago
