Re: NOR~CAL STREET GANGS II

Re: Surenos Upstate Cali

I can speak for the era the original poster is talking about from a mostly neutral perceptive growing up in the 80's and 90's in San Jose, I want to address his comment and give an alternative opinion because there's a lot of biases in his post. First thing first, I get the rejection you and your "h...

Re: Little bit of Black and Mexican history

Appreciate the message on positivity but you may lose some people on opinions that aren't necessary fact based. any real Mexican worth their weight and honest knows there was a settlement Africans along the Veracruz area roughly during the colonial period... being 3-4% of what have you doesn't make ...

The boundaries I drew up of the area is a rough estimation. the thing I was considering was keeping the map clean, I'm pretty sure SJG and JSP overlap on some streets, bu...

Re: San Jose Norteno-Sureno Gang Map!

@ J I would prefere leaving all the neighborhoods in place. I know that some of them had faded or no longer exist. It is not meant to be an up to date map though. If that were the case we would be adding and subtracting a lot more. Good point, that was the way I looked at it just wasn't sure about ...

Downtown is accurate in the 1990's time frame. I know a few things need to be changed some to be up to date but for the sake of keeping the map clean I left it alone.

Yeah they did do good for themselves but they came a little before the time when rappers were truly making the big $. Short actually had 2 or 3 number #1 songs I believe. I don't thi...

Tupak was born in Marin City in Marin county.

I was hearing that Bay area rappers were generally having a tough time coming ...

Re: rap around the world.

The Luniz is one that comes to mind, Oakland has a lot of lingo that people have picked up on through the years. I remember hearing the word "Hata" first from them.
On other side note I don't believe Tupac really came onto the scene with D.U until about 1991.
