Miss my old neighborhood back in the days in the 80s early 90s so much fun miss all my original best friends from that time too wherever y’all I love y’all 💪🏾💯
That we “have”? Where do you live? Have is present tense. In that area, at that time this was a short result of men stepping up. Can you imagine if the greens was still there now?
@@honestsupplementsreviews2984You got violet people everywhere in the world but but the people in that neighborhood had enough of gang people doing that
@@honestsupplementsreviews2984wish i could find my mamas best friend from The Green. He used to live in Cali... Ira Johnson... need to tell em my mama was looking for him before she passed in 2020
I was a teenager in the 90's, but over on the west coast area. Things were bad back then. I used to keep an eye out for any headlights coming down the street from either direction if I was outside in the neighborhood after dark, if I saw any coming in the distance I would take cover and hide behind parked cars, electricity boxes, random houses front porches, anywhere I could long before anyone in the car could see me and I wouldn't come out until the car was a good ways away because drive bys were so common. I started doing that at 8 or 9 years old. Things calmed down a bit after the early 2000's and partying and going to the club became the popular thing. But of course, its getting bad again. Sad to see, but not surprising.
@@TravisBourgeois rate… that’s out of 100k people and it’s only 300k people in NO. Compared to Chicago or Baltimore where the murders are concentrated to a certain area
People fail to acknowledge how despite the “crime” and rivalry, we were a family and took care of each other in our own way. I lived in 714 w division and my village watched over me from sunrise to sunset. Now today I am a PhD holder and I always pay homage to my play aunts, uncles and cousins because they were my “gang” and I’m in my 50s and still connected with them to this day.
@@franktruth6322 murder is a Proximity crime, of course Family kills Family, Miachael killed Fredo and it's Art. People seem to understand why, But it's always looked at differently when we do it. " La Violencia", "Omerta" and Vendettas, are Valid, Until it's a Certain group doing it.
@@SeekingGreetings I guess it’s true when they say ignorance is bliss because I’m obviously not referring to “taking care of someone” in this manner. God rest his soul
Nothing in the 2000s, as far as serious crimes (murder & drugs) has hit the marks of violence of chicago from the late 80s to maybe 1994. That was back when we had real drug selling and real gang wars on the streets. Same applied to places like NY and LA as well. All 3 big cities were wrestling for murder capital titles back then
Sadly by Design,it was the same in New York we practically almost lost a Borough in the 70's ,crime all the way to the end of the 90's .just freaking terrible. This is what they don't tell the news which in turn the reason rap existedin the 70's to the 90's about the " Inner City Blues"
Wrong , i moved from DC to around Oakland and LA , in the 2000s there was a lot of murders soemtimes even worse than the 80s 90s I remember at one point hearing of 5 funerals in 2 weeks.
@jawbreaker8363 over the last 23 years (which would be the entire 2000s) places like Chicago, NY & LA have hit the murder numbers that they were consistently getting during the late 80s - mid 90s only 2-5 times. Chicago was getting almost 1000 murders EVERY YEAR from the late 80s - mid 90s. this period was the time when bangin & drug dealing hit its peak; before the decline. Places like NY & LA were getting close to 2000 murders per year around that same time period. u typing about what u HEARD lets me know you dont know what youre typing about. u werent out there. Your pov seems to be that of a person that was born less than 35 years ago. ur not typing not facts
*Crime peaked from 1968 - 1997. Those were the most violent years in modern US history. The 70s alone was much more violent than anything decade in the 2000s.*
If your curious what causes all this Google Maps of lead water pipes use in the USA Maps of areas of the highest crime Effects of lead water pipes on the health of people They all match up perfectly all the areas that still use lead water pipes are all the high crime areas and the effects of lead water pipes are the symptoms of these areas
@@Kellz-l9z I wasn't trying to get points ...I'm sorry I'll learn from this like lil Reese did. I wasn't in my right mind that night ..so I got my mother to cook and we are donating plates to the homeless twice a week this point forward !!!! Time to right these wrongs
its the youngins causing all the problems. don't worry though. by 2030. that generation all dead or in jail. you won't have these "clout" rappers no more by 2030. media is already starting to pull the plug on mainstream rap/hipop
Every city needs it, furthermore Chicago isn’t the murder capital. Memphis is, the southern states are more dangerous than Chicago. Y’all don’t want to speak on that you rather go with the media lies. Florida,Mississippi, Arkansas,Georgia are the worst states as far as crime and murder is concerned.
They swear the violence is worse now and it’s not this video is talking about the same exact shit there happening now kid talking about he scared to get shot in the face by a bullet simply walking down the street Ain’t nothing changed only difference I see is with those elders the elders are no longer around the new adults are the ones in the streets or in jail when they supposed to be the elders to the young people
🤔 I grew up in Chicago. I remember the killing of little Dantrell Davis. He'd be 35 now. 2023. Cabrini Green is no more. It was torn down over 20 years ago.
gun violence is related to poverty. Poverty stricken areas are more likely to be dangerous. the more dangerous an area is , the more likely people are to own guns (illegally or legally) for protection . . people born/raised in poverty 'USUALLY' don't have a stable house hold, so they 'USUALLY' grow up not knowing how to resolve issues or deal with stress PROPERLY .
Gun violence is related to missing fathers not money. I didn’t see any rich man or government funding stopping the violence in this video. I saw men/father stoping the violence.
@@eddiekaine8820I agree and the sad part about everything else is that there is not enough positive male role models that set a good example for the neighborhoods to stop the violence and create safety zones is important to get involved and not expect politicians and powerful people to stop the violence. And like I always tell people all the time is become the change that we need not our worst problem.
@@eddiekaine8820U REPEATING BULLSHITT IF THAT MEANT ANYTHING THERE WOULDN'T B ANYBODY IN JAIL RAISED BY BOTH PARENTS BUT THERE IS,,, SO THAT THEORY IS DEAD
Rubbish. Other nations (like India and China) the people are much poorer. They don't go shooting up each other. Unfortunately, it's all one demographic.
Man I wonder whether these guys being interviewed are alive today. Things were not that different from today. I think if social media was available back then it would’ve just been the same self-incriminating and all. I hope our communities do better 💯💪🏾
Self incrimination definitely would’ve been the same. You see how they flocked to cameras and were willing to take interviews back then. Nothing was different, it just depends on the personality
@@bodilly6221exactly people dont really change as the decades change , the lifestyles of them do tho , its all depended on wat ur exposed too , if they grew up wit the internet u are right they would be just like us
No that's not way it's because they had gang leaders back then. The united states government has a destabiliztion campaign on the African American community. They don't want anyone in power so they keep the violence going
Accepting a community service award "On behalf of the Traveling Vice Lord Nation" is the most 90s Chicago thing of all time, you would never ever see that today. There isn't anyone in charge enough to go on stage for it
I DON'T BELIEVE THAT GANGS CAN BE TOGETHER PEACEFULLY. (as gangs eat together on camera) I DON'T BELIEVE THEM.. - The Mayor and City Officials Thanks For Your Support. And Encouraging Words. -CHIRAQ
"Goathead". Some gang members have weird names and idk why but it makes them a little more menacing to me. There was this Asian🇱🇦 gang in the neighborhood I grew up in, they had this big buff ass Asian dude named The Chicken Man. Caught a murder charge for stabbing someone with a samurai sword.
No the hell it’s not. That’s what the media has us FOOLED about. “ Back then was so great” bs look at the murder rates, assaults, rapes. Way higher back then. The focal point is (especially in this video), the non existent recognition people got for trying to spread peace! Mfs wanted us to kill each other then and ain’t a damn thing changed now
I miss the old Chicago, IL where it was all about having fun going to the juke parties having cookouts and people getting along in addition, Sticking together . It was not killing each other and shooting in addition, Like they are doing today. It was about protecting the Women and Children in addition, This new Mayor /yet Governor don't have Chicago, IL best interest .This new Mayor /yet Governor energy comes Off EVIL and not GOOD
I'm 55 n remember the peace ✌ treaty in 93-94. It lasted a Lil bit, but felt funny ngaz who shot at you or tried to merc you walkn round freely in our hood. I stayed on 075th coles barnone half block Eastside crazy. And we had 1 of the only liquor stores that stayed open til 4-5am. The other was on 68th Halsted. Just 2 stores stayed open that late. So we did feel some kind of way. We GD's marched 10,000 deep from 35th to city hall to get kids back in school n health care. I member getting to the snakes 27th state, but they didn't want no smoke, cuz the gds was too strong n deep. That's why we are still considered the most hated organization. Our laws n policies relied of us always on defense. Meaning we wasn't starting shyt but we dam sho wasn't ducking none
@@Lilblue904beginning of the day and end of the day we all Disciples if you know your history it’s a good thing you understand the importance of leadership an understanding the demographics of the organizations

Shit crazy ain’t it but I swear the OGs been doing this shit in Chicago but nighas ain’t want that attention or cameras now this shit went World Wide our style going over viral lingo influence the culture Opps, Bust Down, Thot, Goofy all type of shit
@@DjSonnyKorleon that shit influence The culture in a bad way, All y'all influence is to kill black people and smoke on them, no different then the KKK
It's foolish not to at least give these young guys credit for the effort.....if the city recognized them for making peace with eachother maybe something would've changed. How can crime not drop if the gangs stop doing crime?? They're the ones committing them right smh?? Them folks like it this way....that's why the system is set up the way it is
@@oscarhunn8658 they did make peace. Why would the community praise them if they didn't?? They were the ones being terrorized. Law enforcement didn't wanna give them props saying would never recognize a gang member. So they went back to what they know. Police didn't want them to really have peace anyway.....they don't care

There is no OGs and never was there any OGs throughout the city of Chicago ! Jeff Forte/Larry Hoover/ Willie Lloyd/ Walter Wheat and other gang chieftains was never called OGs but they all were strictly called by the title that they had owned and held down !
Randy Holcomb is my cousin. His brother Corey always looked out for me. One day Corey saved my life. These BDs wanted me dead because they wanted to get back at my uncle. But, Corey convinced them to let me breathe. Corey left and went out west a few weeks later, the BDs were after him. I never saw Corey again. I hope you’re well uncle Corey 🕊️
I'm from Louisville,Ky & my grandparents drove up 2 Chicago in the mid 80s when I was like 4/5 4 a wedding my grandfather's sister lived there & was getting married long story short my grandparents asked some random people 4 directions 2 a good hotel & they got directed 2 a hotel full of nothing but pimps & hoes they hurried the fuck outta there & got downtown 2 a nice 1 I thank God my grandparents made it back 2 Kentucky safe...💯
Wow i was a in 1st or second grade around this time i remember the slick boys used to come to my school all the time and hold assemblies them and dare. My how time just flies.
My-oh-my look how the tables turned you got rid of a lot of the drug dealers in the streets but you took it over commercialize it and call it a new name that's called pharmaceuticals
Give it up to the community leaders! We have HIGH population of people from Chicago in my city. Unfortunately, they brought this mentality with them. I live in the twin cities Minnesota.
It’s been that way since the late 70s and 80s and 90s we left K town (out west) and moved to north Minneapolis in October 1989 and I was only 3 but remember my uncles, my youngest and oldest uncles were 74 and my middle uncle was Black P Stone they would take me to the park over there around Oliver and I think Penn (can’t remember) and they would run into so many Chicago folks and folks they knew personally from there. It’s been like that for decades up here.
😂Crazy in this videi dude said opps and slkck boys said gang gang in those days nobody said that now everybody say it😏They could of got rich off that back then if they did it the right way 💯Imagine that 🤔
Whats crazy is the gang members back then seemed more reserved but the murders were pretty much double late 80s early 90s chicago was averaging thousand and more murders each year
I was 10 in 1990 we had are family reunion days/love it was so bad my brother's and cousins had to be extra careful walking to the store we couldn't wear hats or certain colors my family was on the south and westside i lost so many i lost count
I'm from 5266 in the 80's n 90's we use 2 go down stairs n play football go over 2 Beasley n ride our bikes play with the girls playing it no social media at all run up n down the porch n hallways.
@@HOODKINGSofficial you acting like y'all created something to help the community and culture, y'all should have kept that dumb shit in Chicago because y'all niggas hurt the culture more then help
@HOODKINGSofficial chicago and la are the birthplace of modern gangbanging over the past 60 plus yrs. All these gangs from Rhode Island to cali got gang sets that originated from those two cities
Omg grow up in the robert Taylor’s in the 80’s and 90’s I remember we use to get out of school early at hartigan because the gang members were about to shoot🙄 well I guess only good thing they warn us first and you have to go in the house and closed the door…i remember one time I was running up the stairs when the shooting started because the elevator were filled and omg it was so scary because the gang members would shoot all in the stairwell 😭
Yeah the goofies like to claim that term came from Lil Wayne and some west coasters. Just like those LA dudes weren't putting everything on "dead homies" until they heard Chicago gang members saying that stuff . Chicago gangbangers been doing that and tagging their dead homies names all over the walls.
