With a name like the Bomb squad, they are graffiti writers for sure.

im going for a longshot but i think TBS stands for The BoyS. there was a pinoy gang in LA with that name. maybe they are different?

^You're exactly right on. The TBS in Carson stands for The Boys. Don't think they were ever that deep. The TBS in the Philippines stands for True Brown Style. They go by TBS13 over there. TBS from the Philippines has no connection whatsoever to the TBS that was in Carson. Alonso needs to correct the name on his gang list. Supposedly TBS13 in the Philippines are deep and have two sides. One claims red and the other claims blue. I don't understand how a gang can use the trece and add to that claim blue and red. Confusing, but thats the facts from what ppl say. There was a crew in Cerritos back in the old days called Bomb Squad (BSD) don't think they used TBS. And there was another crew started by Pinays in Long Beach called Blind Sided Dogs (BSD). Completely separate from the Cerritos BSD. Blind Sided Dogs started getting more heads in south OC where they were now a Pinoy and Pinay crew. They eventually dropped the Dogs from the name and started going by Blind Side (BSD). From what I remember the BSD in south OC was close to the AKP in the area. But yea, TBS in Carson stands for The Boys and NOT True Brown Style or The Bomb Squad. Alonso please fix your list.

If all these pic's of true brown style on youtube & what not are really them, then I wouldn't be surprised if they claim whatever gang comes on gangland. Is the bomb squad still around? We had a lil crew like that in SJ back-n-the-days.

There was an early tagging crew called The Bomb Squad (TBS). They were in West LA.

Jus to clear something up, True Brown Style in the Philippines has been around for a while. They didn't get any of their style from watching Gangland. But yeah, most definitely influenced by the LA gang scene. I don't kno when they started I jus kno they're nothing new. I heard that it got kicked off by someone who moved to the Philippines from San Diego. That's about all the info I have on TBS13 in the Philippines.

If those are real tbs members on youtube, then I'm sure they get a lot of their style from the media. Just look them up on youtube if you want to see what I'm talking about.

^I haven't watched the videos on youtube so I can't comment on that. I don't doubt they get their steez from the LA gang scene. I've seen some pics of them. Jus saying they been around for a while now in the Philippines. Way before any episode of Gangland was aired. Gangs all over the world and even here in the states copy the California gang style. You know how it is. Gangs from all over copy each other from what they see on TV and hear in music. I've heard that there's Crips, Bloods and even Surenos in Canada. It's crazy the amount of influence the media has on ppl.

What do they claim then?

^True Brown Style in the Philippines have two sides from what I've heard and seen in pics. One claims blue and one claims red. To add to that they go by TBS13. I don't no how they operate or how that all works out. Confusing and I honestly don't get it. I always thought it was weird for a gang or "crew" to have two different sides. Like how Crazy Brother Clan in the LB claim the white rag. While the CBC in Texas claims blue. And TRG traditionally claims gray but I've heard that in some other states they claim blue. I just don't understand. There's even strange mixed gangs throughout some states that have Bloods and Crips combining to form one new gang. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Well CBC was originally on that semi crip tip, and flagged blue, the TX set was established before they dropped that crip tip and went all "clansta", the CBC in TX(old east dallas) is cool with ABZ there, same in murda mass too. TRG too, originally flagged blue and thats what my homies told me was the reason for the split off that ABZ sprung from, because some fools wanted to keep it crippin and some fools wanted to go independent with it so those who wanted to flag blue became ABZ and TRG dropped the blue, yet funny thing was they claim(ed) the same color as longos claim; black and gray. There are 2 separate TRG sets in murda mass, TRG Tru Blu and TRG gray, Tru Blu heads are cool with ABZ (not cool as in clicced or kicking it, but no drama) but those fools are and have been on the decline since TRG gray came up and been putting them TRG Blu's down.

^Thanks for dropping that knowledge Bullet. I wasn't aware of that history. Didn't realize Dallas CBC went that far back. And never knew much about the TRG Blu side. Like you said before, learning something new everyday.

Wordemup.
Yeah I mean those fools don't date back too too far(because cbc aint that old as it is) but they definitely got founded shortly after the LB set, as did Dallas ABZ but Dallas ABZ can trace more of it's lineage back to Van Nuys heads than LB. You know how it goes man, shit hits the fan and fools bounce out, and with Khmer communities being so tight nit yet sprawled across the US, there's only a few places for you to move/send your kid where they'll be family around, like Dallas, or Lowell/Lynn, theres also a handful of Khmer living in upstate NY. With Viets it's like Wichita or New Orleans, I haven't met too many cali Viets who have family ties to new york though, even though there's a grip of viets there too.

interesting, so abz did split from trg. i was watching the gangland episode on trg and they mentioned that abz split from trg. i didn't believe it and thought they were throwing out wrong info but i guess they were right. what i heard prior to your post is that there was a group called Ultimate New Wave. From this group came the Tiny Rapists which turned into TRG and another group which was Asian Boyz. I am curious to see how the Ultimate New Wave guys looked like because obviously they were fans of New Wave music so they might have borrowed their style from bands like The Cure and New Order.

back in those days when you talked about "New Wave" music it meant groups like Modern Talking, Bad Boys Blue, and C.C. Catch. not The Cure or New Order.

High hair, colorful shirts and acid washed jeans+jean jackets yo, real talk. But a lot of heads in LA(county) were on that tip at the time, tight jeans and shit, it was the style/trend at the time. I mean, yeah, dickies and friscos with white T's have been the uniform for sometime, but thats not to say suckas didn't take breaks in some weird directions before coming back to the 'norm.' Look at all these kids banging in skinny jeans these days hahaha.
At least thats how I remember it, I was just a kid then though.

Yeah, a lot of people don't know "tight jeans" were in for some. I'm not talking like the real tight 1's these youngsters wear these days, but you know what I mean. Bright colors were also in.

these guys were really high watering their pants, michael jackson status LOL. man it's a trip to see how g-style changes with time. when i think about abz or trg it's all about khaki suits, bandannas, locs, sagging, white ts, and cortez. prior to this style, i heard about asian gangbangers being into the new wave style but i really had no clue how they looked like. that picture shing posted cleared all that up. shing are you in that pic?

in there somewhere. and to clear it up, it wasn't skinny jeans. it was jeans or pants that were baggy up top and cuffed and rolled up at the hem. it was called a pegleg. Z Cavariccis made alot of those pants.

from what i remember it was ultimate wave warriors and teenage rapists. that's where trg and abz from long beach trace its roots from. at least somewhat.

Some of em probably still in Carson but they are defunct as a gang. Most likely that was a hit up from a tagging crew, or maybe a TBS vet trippin down memory lane haha
