Mob Piru on the Eastside of Compton

Home > Bloods > Compton

Eastside MOB Piru is a predominately African-American street gang located on the eastside of Compton in a northeast section of Compton which has a territory adjacent to the City of Lynwood. The MOB Pirus are closely aligned with another Blood set, the Lueders Park Pirus, located just south of the MOB across Rosecrans.

The most well known member of this neighborhood is football play turned music executive, Marion “Suge” Knight. During the 1980s, Knight was pursuing a football career in high school and then in college at UNLV in Las Vegas. He briefly played in the NFL during the 1987 strike season as a “scab” player but was later cut.

By 1990, Knight was doing bodyguard work and looking to get into the music industry and he began to represent the MOB Piru identity more aggressively. Many people who played college football with Knight claimed that he never exhibited a “gangster” persona.

During the early 1990s, he founded Death Row Records along with Andre “Dr. Dre” Young, with seed money provided by Michael “Harry-O” Harris, and they soon produced music for Snoop Dogg, Mi’chelle, Kurupt and Tupac Shakur making the record company one of the most successful ones during the 1990s.

Mob Piru member Travon “Tray” Lane may have been a part of a conflict that eventually led to the murder of Tupac Shakur in September 1996. Earlier that year around April, Lane was at the Footlocker at the Lakewood Mall, when confronted by Southside Compton Crips member Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson. During the conflict, Anderson and several others allegedly took a Death Row necklace and medallion from Lane. Months later in Las Vegas on September 7, while walking in the lobby of the MGM Grand Hotel, Lane coincidentally sees Anderson and tells Tupac Shakur that Anderson is the one who stole the medallion. Shakur assaults Anderson as others in the entourage join in on the beating which is captured on surveillance tape. Later that night, Shakur is fatally shot, allegedly by Anderson. Knight was sent to prison on a parole violation for his role in the beating. Death Row Records was never able to recover following the events of 1996.

The two brothers were found guilty in 2010 following a trial on felony counts of first-degree murder with use of a deadly weapon, first-degree kidnapping, conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to commit kidnapping. Ernest Mitchell outside his home near the intersection of Smoke Ranch Road and Michael Way in Las Vegas and his wife, Katrina testified against her two brothers.

    you all are animals especially all you blood sets you fly the red flag the 5 point star so why are you all fighting other bloods i dont think the founders of the BlOODS or the CRIPS wanted you all to fight your own gangs i meen that just puts a bad name on your whole gang… you can say all you want rep yo set but know at the end of the day you take a risk of getting beat down or having your mother cry over you because she has to see her 18 or 25 year old son in a casket. im only 15 years old and i know that the gang life only gets you two things dead or locked up. so why dont you all do your selves a favor and put the guns down and the words up.
