Labor Day weekend I went to NYC for the first time, it was Bangin dog
Gals dem were sexy, I went to Brick City too.
I didnt go to Juvey, my bro did, he said it was like a Caribana Vibe
was on Flatbush and..........something 2 blocks down from the subway station, i cant remember
your streets out there are confusing for a T dot nigga.
Brooklyn was aight still
But i didnt see alot of people rockin red where i was stayin at
and i was flamed up one day
but it was cool, I dont kno why they give us the impression, that New yorkers are bad and assholes
when I went out there, they showed me nothin but love out there
For the most part, Flatbush is a crip neighborhood so if anything u woulda seen more guys blued up. But I was out there too and didnt see too many guys rocking Blue either. Nothing like 2 years ago when I was on church avenue and I seen like 50 - 60 of these guys just walking up and down the street. U was probably around Flatbush Junction. And aint shit gonna happen over there. That's near the good part of Flatbush where the white people live... Mill Basin area. Now if you ass was on church avenue and flatbush then it woulda been a different story. Three guys got bodied the night of Juveut (how ever u spell it). Then I think two more guys got killed after the Labor Day Parade. I dont know where u been...
Im pretty sure i was pretty sure to church. I was stayin just above this laudrymat. My step dads sisters friend owns it.
I think it was the night of juvet and i was chillin in front of the laudrymat, and i seen like 60 mans on motorcycles, it was ridiculous. they was riding deep. woke up the whole block. fa reals lol
but on another tip
Did anything happen at juvet this year?

My homie used to work by the OTB over there. This ni99a was flamed up with red chucks on. On Glenwood and Flatbush.
It depends on what parts of the 50's your talking about.As stated before the junction is basically where yo will find locs from the veer as for the 50's going up towards kings plaza depending on where your talking about there's real dudes over there but it's more on the inside blocks like 50's and h,i,j,k etc but I would agree it's not much crips on that side of the 50's besides around h park

I dont respect that. thats some flip flop shit. When they out the hood they bang... but when they in the hold they dont? I rather u just drop ya flag and become crip. How they gonna be kool with ni99az throwing up BK and writing fuck slobs on the wall? Thats the ultimate disrespect. And ni99az can NOT get away with that.

Hell No !!! I personally say if a Blood nigga live in a crip pj's and they say he cant rag and he acually bang with yall, the nigga is str8 suspect...He deserve to get dropped...And the locs think they slick n shit,,,They know a Blood nigga livin in they projects and they tell him he betta not rag they got the upper hand on the nigga because they outnumber the nigga and he might get served. It first starts off with dont wear no red...Then dont throw up ya sign to go to the store and all that shit.......That shit is rediculous if the blood nigga gonna let crip niggas take his pride.........

What up.
From L.A., CA myself but I'm now living in Flatbush right there by Church Ave. and Flatbush Ave. about five minutes walk. This hood is undoubtedly Crip, but can anybody speak on the clicks, cause I seen some sets up like "21st Jump Street Crip" plus mad amounts of Folk symbols, then the 8 Ball. I don't bang myself, but I'm trying to understand my surroundings, feel me?

Truthfully... It's that a ni99a dont wanna flag in a crip hood... it aint like ni99az dont know he blood. As long as he dont let ni99az disrespect blood in his face, and let ni99az punk him then its all good. Real respect real. But when u turn around and bang with these ni99az... then i got a problem with it. U should just be labeled and kall it a night.

But then again, 21st street is the longest street number in flatbush...Theres different blocks but 21st street extends so the name is 21st jumpstreet so i guess they probably added crips to the name because most of the Church ave crips are UGC's........

Yep that's what they hit up now, like in the last month. Are you saying NHB's turned Crip?
And with all the Folk shit I seen, is it both systems at the same time - B/C & People/Folk, or did Cali type of banging take over at a certain time? All the new graff is Crip related, not Folks related.

Nhb turned crip ????? Hell No !! Read my post carefully homie....I said 21st street is the biggest street in flatbush...21st is known as 21st jumpstreet.. but when you posted u seen 21st jumpstreet crips I never heard of them but i know the NHB's use the 21st jumpstreet in there name...But like I said in my other post, The crips on church ave are ugc's but probably since there on church and 21st, they probably just put 21st jumpstreet crips as an alias or so........

Understood homie. That's what I heard as well. An Old West Indian cat (lived in that hood for 20 years) told me that It used to really be fucked up on those Church Blocks about 4 years ago. Cops over there everyday all day.
Since you didn't say nothin about Folks I'm guessing it's been dying out around there.

Are the gangs in New York City, The Bronx, Brooklyn & Queens of olden days like a lot of the L.A. County gangs, or are they more of recent times.
I've read these Christian books that are named Run Nicky Run, and The Cross and the Switchblade. It tells the story of a Puerto Rican gang member in Bedford-Stuveyssant in Brooklyn whom found his salvation in Christ Jesus. In those books there is mention of several street gangs by the names of Phantom Lords, Mau Mau's, Viceroys, Quentons, Hell Burners if I remember correctly, and others.
In California's cities, a lot of the gangs go back generations and are still going strong, so I was wondering which if any New York gangs which are still around, have generations and historical background ?

Nah....Those gangs you mentioned are not around no more,but alot of og's that was in those gangs are either dead, turned they life around or in jail..but I remember a few years back when me and my homie was chillin in his crib his pops was tellin use he use to be in some gang called viceroys(What you mentioned)...I gotta homie in Shawagunk Thats locked up with old time gangsters...Even some old niggas that use to be Black panthers......

But the new Generation, Im sure you know they done know about the B's and the C's, picked it up and ran with it......Everybody wants to be either blood or crip now......Most of the Folks in ny done transformed into crips...When folks came to Ny they was piggybackin off the crips for the fact they rock the same colors and niggas was confuised....So alot of folks became crips...But there still some Folks that Hold down they set and some acually beef with crips now.......
