Blood and Crip shit being to commercialized......

[kverdugazo]

^^^ yeah ok... cuzz we all know that yahoo is the ultimate source for Crips and bloods and their validity. Man I guarantee that most niggas outside of Cali and the Westcoast never would of known or heard about most hoods if it wasn't for the music and media(magazines, internet,etc..) Most of these niggas never even met a real nigga from the off-brand hood they claim... Niggas need to get off nuts... no monte trompa

[phenomenom]

most of these cats thats bangin outside of Cali don't even know what they bangin for you could ask them and they wouldn't even know.

fool, cats that bang in cali dont kno what they bangin for either. they grew up in the hood, their parents were in a gang, whatever. its the same sh*t in other hoods nationwide. blood and crip is just a name. a gang is a gang. a hood is a hood.

I agree with you nigga but Blood and Crip is a CALIFORNIA THING I don't wanna go to New York and see fools actin like they B's and C's cause that ain't New York..... These niggaz ain't got to be perpatrating to be Westcoast when they got they own gangs out there Latin kings, Gangster disples and all of them other gangs. My point is if you bangin blood or crip but ain't bang it Cali style then don't bang the shit at all. Just like niggaz in Chicago addin 5 and 6point shit to there wannabe crip gangs out there... they distortin it and making a mokery out of it and any real Crip or blood from Cali will tell you that[/quote]

The United Blood Nation, simply called the Bloods, formed in 1993, within the New York City jail system on Rikers Island's GMDC (George Mochen Detention Center), sometimes called C-73. GMDC was used to segregate problem inmates from the rest of the detention center. Prior to this time period, the Latin Kings were the most prevalent and organized gang in the NYC jail system. The Latin Kings, with mostly Hispanic members, were targeting African American inmates with violence. These African American inmates, organized by some of the more violent and charismatic inmates, formed a protection group which they called the United Blood Nation. This United Blood Nation, which was actually a prison gang, was emulating the Bloods street gangs in Los Angeles, California. Several of the leaders of this recently created prison gang formed eight original Blood sets to recruit in their neighborhoods across New York City. These original sets were: Mad Stone Villains (MSV), Valentine Bloods (VB), Nine Trey Gangsters (NTG), Gangster Killer Bloods (GKB), One Eight Trey (183) Bloods, Hit Squad Brims (HSB), Blood Stone Villains (BSV) and Sex, Money and Murder (SMM).


By 1996, thousands of members of the Blood street gang were establishing themselves as a formidable force among gangs and continued a steady drive for recruitment. At this time, the bloods were more violent than other gangs but much less organized. Numerous slashings (razor blade or knife attacks) were reported during robberies and discovered to be initiations into the Bloods. This Blood in ritual became the trademark for the Bloods. Bloods recruited throughout the East Coast and began spreading their drug networks rapidly. Blood gangs can be found in the New York City area, Upper New York State, New Jersey, Baltimore, Hagerstown, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Connecticut to name a few.


Recently, Blood gangs have become a favorite target of Law Enforcement because of their connection to violence. Bloods will commit violence against other Blood sets and there is no direct Regional or National leadership or connections. According to some sources, East Coast Bloods and West Coast Bloods conducted a series of meetings in 1999 and formed the United Blood Nation as a way to align all Blood gangs as one Nation for the purposes of power and unity. This alleged unification resulted in the Bloods referring to themselves as Damu, a Swahili word synonymous for Blood.


Bloods refer to each other as Dawg (DOGS). They will burn an upside down triangular shape, looking like a dog paw, on their upper arm. The three circular burns, usually from a cigarette, can be found on a member of the bloods. Some Bloods will have a tattoo of a dog, usually a bulldog, like the Mack Truck logo. Bloods will also use the acronym M.O.B. (Member of Blood or Money Over Bitches) to identify themselves. This can be seen as a burn scar or sometimes a tattoo. The Bloods have recently, in the year 2000, become more involved and connected to their People Nation affiliation.

You idiot, LA MARA IS FROM EL SALVADOR, NOT MEXICO!!!!

If you REALLY in MS-13, then you should AT LEAST be able to recognize a whole COUNTRY YOUR OWN GANG IS FROM.

YOU are fake, even though D.C. MS-13 is real.

And NO, the NY UBN has no connection to Cali, I'm IN California, and yes, there are SOME bloods in NY with a real connection, like some R20s, etc., but UBN started independant of Cali bloods, they started as a protection system, like you yourself said, but never even tried to set up a connection to Cali. And most of the NY bloods with a Cali connection were there independant of UBN.

The closest thing UBN has a connection they have is Game being in that "Certified Gangstas" video with Dipset, lol.

[A Ghost]

This is just my opinion.

I believe that media has had a major influence on the spread of Bloods and Crips across the country.

Sure maybe they would have hit the major cities after a while like the Chicago gangs, but do you think it would have happened as fast as it has?

I'm not saying that people in these Blood and Crip sets outside of California aren't real. I'm sure they are willing to die just as much as Los Angeles gangsters for their gang.

But do you really think that if the media never talked about gang life in LA things would be the way they are today?

It just seems that people were to lazy to think of something original so some guy said "F#ck it, let's just call ourselves Bloods."

And don't yell at me for saying that, Phenomenom said it himself

This United Blood Nation, which was actually a prison gang, was emulating the Bloods street gangs in Los Angeles, California.

With people like R. Kelly and Lil Wayne putting lowriders in their videos even though they aren't from the south-west? Like rappers from the South throwing up different signs with their hands and getting tattoo tears as well as other tats that resemble LA gang tats?

And if people are going to get mad at Jim Jones and Dipset for wearing colored bandanas because they aren't from LA, why aren't you going after every single other rapper that is out there for doing the EXACT same thing?

Look at the videos. It seems that 7 out of 10 rappers wear bandanas. How come nothing is being said to them? Just Dipset and Jim Jones?

How about how before Los Angeles rappers talked about gangs nobody outside of LA talked about gang life at all. Now everyone and their mother is all of a sudden a "gangster".

As a matter of fact I see a lot more rappers down south saying that they are gangster and all that more than I see New York rappers saying it.

And didn't The Game do "Certified Gangsters" with Dipset and Jim Jones?
The Game says he is a real Blood from Compton so if he had a problem with dipset would he have done the video?

That's just my thoughts on the subject...

Here's some pics to prove my point. It's not just Jim Jones and Dipset emulating LA style.

^^^ those niggas above is garbage anyway...The difference between them and dipset is dipset came out last yr saying they were from some invented slob set those other niggas just commercial. It's basically cuzzz niggas don't wanna be original so they feel they gotta copy some style and the Westcoast style has pretty much stayed the same for decades but these niggas recently is bitin the style cuzz niggas stopped caring and set trippin... now the shit has got way outta hand. As far as the game doin songs w/ dipset... niggas would do anything for $ so... but Im sure the nigga knows they fake as fucc at the same time. Game isn't the mouthpiece for Compton anyway he don't represent all of Compton just himself. Im sure niggas from his own hood don't like hearing Jim Jones rap about some hood he didn't even know about 2 yrs ago. These niggas that came out in 2000 bangin is fake as fucc.

Actually, Lil' Wayne is supposedly claiming Vicelords, which is a Chicago gang, and from what I heard his set in NO is official (can't confirm that first-hand, though)

And Bandanas and Hand signs are not just "LA" Style. IF you really want to take it back, street gangs wore bandanas first around the face and loosely on the neck to imitate the "bad guys" from cowboy movies. Hand signs can be traced to gangs as old and the ancient Chinese Triads, and in the US, NY and Chicago Invented their own signs as well, not just LA.

Causes of the problem.

You all have to keep in mind that both Bs and Cs moved out of LA in the 80's and set up shop in cities all over the country. That's why in St. Louis we got GSWs, N-Hoods, 60s, R20s, ETGs, BSVs, CMGs and thats why Wayne Day got caught up in coldass Minneapolis. He put locals on the set there. The Bs and Cs from LA set up their own sets and local bangers joined up. The local bangers did the same thing by taking the sets to other smaller cities. At least, that's what happened in the STL.

The thing is that at the same time, the Chicago Nations moved into other cities to try and expand. The difference between Chicago and LA was, and I can only speak for the GD's, but the move to other cities was planned out on every point. The GD's came and set up things the same way they were set up in Chicago. They even had us sending cash up to the Chicago Lieutenants on a monthly basis. That's why the Chicago Nations spread so fast.

There were also problems when the sets moved into the same city at the same time. From what I heard, there were problems between the GDs in Minneapolis and the GSW there. Since its so near to Chicago, the GDs didnt want people moving in on their market and there were problems. In other cities the GDs and the Crips worked together. Alot of that had to do with the whole colors thing. Thats why Crips started using the 6 point star in some places. The GDs basically stayed GDs but the Crips started combining the GDs lit and handsigns into their sets. Some hoods would strike up an 8 on the walls and throw up an 8 hand sign. (if you combine the GDs handsign and the Crips C you get an

Moving into cities also created new enemies. Our worst wars were not with the Vice Lords but with the CMGs and the BSVs. A lot of the peewees didnt even really know about the VLs. They only knew that the CMGs were the ones riding on us. So, they viewed the bloods as the real enemy.

The handsign and bandana stuff isnt just LA. GDs got a whole complicated set of handsigns- even more than the LA sets. Its basically sign language and hard as hell to learn. Every Chicago Nation wears bandanas and always has. About the tattoos- every folks got tattoos. Its like the bandanas and handsigns- Its not LA. Its not Chicago. but, the Chicago Nations are more into branding.

But I do have a problem with the media and companies making money off the stuff. It hasnt been as bad with the GDs, VLs, LKs, SDs as it has with the Bloods and Crips.

And I dont view NY bloods and crips as real sets. But thats what happens when you dont really have gangs until the late 90s. you steal off what other people did before you.

[SAINTJAYMES]

just because something has cought on where it didnt originate dosent make it any less valid ........ look at hip hop started on the east coast and let them east coast niggas tell it the west coast aint doing it rite dose that mean that any place hip hop now lives is fake

just because something has cought on where it didnt originate dosent make it any less valid ........ look at hip hop started on the east coast and let them east coast niggas tell it the west coast aint doing it rite dose that mean that any place hip hop now lives is fake

are you seriously comparing gangbanging to hiphop? It just aint the same. I'm not going to bother explaining it because you wont get it. even making that comparision tells me that you never banged a day in your life.

[SAINTJAYMES]

you rite i aint no gangbanger but the compairson is still the same something that started in one place and spread world wide i know hip hop aint gangbangin but by what im reading in this thread only new york niggas have the rite to hip hop cause it started there crips and bloods may have started in la but many la niggas took that shit out of state for a number of reasons and now places like new york atlanta minneapolis have crips and bloods and the bullets form the guns will peel ya wig back in little rock the same as in la

And Bandanas and Hand signs are not just "LA" Style. IF you really want to take it back, street gangs wore bandanas first around the face and loosely on the neck to imitate the "bad guys" from cowboy movies. Hand signs can be traced to gangs as old and the ancient Chinese Triads, and in the US, NY and Chicago Invented their own signs as well, not just LA.

Causes of the problem.

You all have to keep in mind that both Bs and Cs moved out of LA in the 80's and set up shop in cities all over the country. That's why in St. Louis we got GSWs, N-Hoods, 60s, R20s, ETGs, BSVs, CMGs and thats why Wayne Day got caught up in coldass Minneapolis. He put locals on the set there. The Bs and Cs from LA set up their own sets and local bangers joined up. The local bangers did the same thing by taking the sets to other smaller cities. At least, that's what happened in the STL.

The thing is that at the same time, the Chicago Nations moved into other cities to try and expand. The difference between Chicago and LA was, and I can only speak for the GD's, but the move to other cities was planned out on every point. The GD's came and set up things the same way they were set up in Chicago. They even had us sending cash up to the Chicago Lieutenants on a monthly basis. That's why the Chicago Nations spread so fast.

There were also problems when the sets moved into the same city at the same time. From what I heard, there were problems between the GDs in Minneapolis and the GSW there. Since its so near to Chicago, the GDs didnt want people moving in on their market and there were problems. In other cities the GDs and the Crips worked together. Alot of that had to do with the whole colors thing. Thats why Crips started using the 6 point star in some places. The GDs basically stayed GDs but the Crips started combining the GDs lit and handsigns into their sets. Some hoods would strike up an 8 on the walls and throw up an 8 hand sign. (if you combine the GDs handsign and the Crips C you get an

Moving into cities also created new enemies. Our worst wars were not with the Vice Lords but with the CMGs and the BSVs. A lot of the peewees didnt even really know about the VLs. They only knew that the CMGs were the ones riding on us. So, they viewed the bloods as the real enemy.

The handsign and bandana stuff isnt just LA. GDs got a whole complicated set of handsigns- even more than the LA sets. Its basically sign language and hard as hell to learn. Every Chicago Nation wears bandanas and always has. About the tattoos- every folks got tattoos. Its like the bandanas and handsigns- Its not LA. Its not Chicago. but, the Chicago Nations are more into branding.

But I do have a problem with the media and companies making money off the stuff. It hasnt been as bad with the GDs, VLs, LKs, SDs as it has with the Bloods and Crips.

And I dont view NY bloods and crips as real sets. But thats what happens when you dont really have gangs until the late 90s. you steal off what other people did before you.

Thankyou for clearing that up guys. Seriously. Instead of everybody arguing back and forth.

And about the argument of comparing rap to gangbanging.

Gangbanging causes deaths. Rap doesn't.

Do not compare the two.

^^ I agree... niggas in LA was bangin b4 hip-hop even existed. We all respected and loved the original niggas that started hip hop and always had love for the Eastcoast artists...even though there was always a westcoast bias... I respect niggas like Rakim, Guru, KRS-1, etc... those niggas are original...but the eastcoast niggas nowdays atleast the so-called "bangers" like dipset, jim jones, etc.. are garbage. If the Westcoast was more united we would just snuff those niggas..but to these niggas that don't live in the hood it's just a fad to them.

Why is everybody arguing and fighting over this?

If what you say is true then why can't anybody simply prove it?

Instead of cussing somebody out, help out and post good information.

I can't remember who, but somebody said that there had been Blood sets in New York City in the early 90's.

Who set them up? Where are the news articles about it? Did they come directly from Los Angeles?

[kwalei]

Some in the westcoast are saying that Eastcoast Bloods and Crips are fake. Most of the crips and bloods in New Jersey are real and stem from the westcoast. The Queen St Bloods in Inglewood came to New Jersey and started a set called Double II's. I got evidence of that. The others stem from the UBN which MIGHT be fake. NY has sets that stem from LA usually the ones with the LA names like NHB 20s, TTP, etc. Nine Trey, GKB, and SMM stem off of the UBN and originated on the east. Somebody told me that OG Mack was given the green light by somebody name Queen Sheba???? I don't know about that! Some crip and bloods out of LA are real. Many of them migrate.

[OG Redbone]

blood and crip is just a name.

What about Nine Trey, GKB, SMM and other UBN sets are they fake?

[MafiaVL5]

I read all the post on this subject. There was a few I strongly agree with. Let me start by saying that, yeah of course Blood/Crip shyt started in Cali. I understand that fam. But to say that ni99az in other states is fake fa claimin Blood/Crip is down right foolish. If anything, I would say it's a compliment to Cali that a movement like the Bloods and Crips would influence a whole nation. Check it out fam...What do we define fake as? I define fake as not practicing what you preach and not following the pursuit of actions that would be expressed due to ya beliefs....
What I'm sayin is this....If a brotha in Minnesota claim to be a Blood and say he bang it 24/7, but when shyt hit the fan, and his enemies approach him with drama, and he don't get down fa his, then yeah that brotha is FAKE. Fam, I don't know who this would go out to, but you can't get upset and pissed because it's homies in other parts of the map claimin a gang (Blood or Crip) that was started by ya state. You gotta understand that ni99az that claim Blood/Crip, and People/Folk do so in an undenying fashion of RESPECT for both Chicago and Los Angeles. Sure, the homies that are claimin Blood and Crip in other places probably do it different, but thats just the way it is. Out here in the midwest Bloods are aligned with us People nation members and the Crips are aligned with the Folk nation. Actually it's like that in 75% of the nation, probably with the exception of Cali, becuz I'm not sure if it's evidence of Folk/People alliances out there. I know the Black P Stones was started by a People nation member , T Rodgers, but still not sure about the impact of People / Folk orginazations. However, getting back to what we percieve as FAKE.... Let me ask you this...Should Detroit, Michigan label all record companies, specifically Black record labels fake because arguably we can say that R&B started in Detroit? (Motown Records)

Should Detroiters call every singer, and every singing group fake, because this genre of music (R&B) evolved from the midwest? No, we can't. It'll be ignorant.

Therefore if people in the state of Michigan, specifically Detroit was gonna think that Motown Records would be the only black Record label, then they was gonna be sadly mistaken....

Blood/Crip...People/Folk, is here, wheteher it derived from the Chi, or L.A.
It's all about keepin it real, ...

That don't mean puttin on a mean mug a shootin up everything in site, but just remaining with the street code...

"All is Well"

I would say it's a compliment to Cali that a movement like the Bloods and Crips would influence a whole nation.

NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!

You must obviously not live in the hood or something because a real kid from the hood knows that street life isn't something to sensationalize.

Why would you want gangs? Why would you want violence?

Not only should Crips and Bloods have been stopped from migrating, so should have all of them!

Hells Angels, Skninheads, Vice Lords, Latin Kings, ect..

None of them should have grown.

Gangs start out as neighborhood protection, sure, but all of them eventually turn out wrong. It all ends up in bloodshed and murder.

Why would you say that????

Did you even see the F.E.D.S documentary?

You referred to T. Rodgers. T. Rodgers himself CONDONED the spread of the Bloods gang to New York. He said it himself "OG Mack destroyed a lot of lies"

The fat guy that was an original Compton Crip said that gangs were wrong. All these people that have witnessed violence due to gangs all know that, that life is wrong.

However, getting back to what we percieve as FAKE.... Let me ask you this...Should Detroit, Michigan label all record companies, specifically Black record labels fake because arguably we can say that R&B started in Detroit? (Motown Records)

Should Detroiters call every singer, and every singing group fake, because this genre of music (R&B) evolved from the midwest? No, we can't. It'll be ignorant.

I said it before and I'll say it again.

DO NOT COMPARE RAP OR R&B OR ANY TYPE OF MUSIC TO BLOOD AND CRIP MIGRATION!!

Rap never cost the lives of thousands of people over the years.

Rap and R&B are an artistic form of expression.

Gangs kill.

When you watch the 6 o'clock news you don't see 3 people die every night over rap battles.

Don't compare them. EVER!
