I've heard a few dead guys say "idgaf if he got a gun, he ain't going to do shit with that gun" ran up on a person with a gun and got killed. If they scared of you they will shoot you if they have a gun. People now will shoot you if you beat they azz. Don't never underestimate a person with a gun. Even if he soft
@@adrianv5642 he said even if he had the gun he wasn't going to do shit with it. He old enough to know better than that. A old lady will shoot you with a old rusty 38 lbs
It didn't start off how it is today these grown ass men tryna change things and educate. You and I will never know what it was like to make ignorant comments. Its no different from soldiers going to fight pointless ass wars.
@@mclovin9236 exactly. A man is critized for being a Crip or Blood but that same man can join the army and kill innocent people based off his military affiliation.
It's not that it's like if you are a military man you are that for life if u were president you are that for life it may go over folks heads but the streets are the same for some
Most of the old timers, OG’s, the “gang” is family. Like brother, sister, mother, father. A lot of the gangs were formed bcuz the guys wanted structure. I “rep” my family, these guys do to 🤷🏻♂️ can’t knock that
@@boobie04 was he asked about him or did he voluntarily speak on him. He's speakin facts bro..CW wont keep LA Gang Culture out his mouth..You overlook all the positive programs he's offering to focus on the lame..says something about your silly state of mind.
@@1tarikross161 nobody gives af about gang culture in LA, you really think mfers scared of that?? Yall really letting mfers with no education tell you what to do
@@glenbrown7423 and you are literally telling ppl to denounce the same youth you say that you want to help. This makes no sense. Hence, you don’t know what you r talking abt
As far as I see, CW ain’t perfect and has a lot of flaws but his stance on what gang culture and rap culture have done and continues to do to black people he’s correct. Melvin is an example for the youth of what gang life leads to…he still won’t denounce gangs but we should listen to him??? Nah longtime gang members are pitiful.
Bcuz clowns get praised nowadays CW is a straight clown this shit bigger than gangs stop letting CW gain credibility by knocking gangs. He’s sidetracking y’all from real problems. Go at them white folks like that. He got y’all downing ur own kind take time to see what they are doing. CW AINT DOing NOTHING BUT BEING LOUD. but he will not do that to white folks bcuz he on their side. Pay attention
@@jamescollier7360 I agree the thing with CW is he lied to get a fan base. Men talk n it’s very obvious he doesn’t wanna do that. He sits down with these guys n start arguing it’s very weird I thought he was a community leader as he say.
This interview validates everything CW said about the OG’s in LA being unable to retire and how detrimental it is to children of the community because of their (OG’s) inability to let the past go. Skull appears to be lost and a complete contradiction to himself.
Crips at the beggining where fine in code with each other, but they began spliting up and lost leadership, and they started fighting in the streets and prison too
Xoospikey....ppl like u are straight bullsh#$…....comes on her talking bout ppl Grammer....go take ur az somewhere girlydude.....go read somewhere else wit dat bullsh@#
@@bigkeemy1 People choose to live a life of sin... God gave us all free will but understand this earth is the devil's playground and we deal with wickedness in high places and gangbanging is wickedness all around... What's going on in the world is not God's fault
So dudes mad as hell about Charleston calling them out for being delivers of death and destruction to their communities while blaming everyone and everything else.
He actual did admit that gangs are the problem in another interview he is tryna right his wrongs these days but is also saying gangs are still apart of history.
gangs aren't the problem. Gangs are not going anywhere because Humans in general divide each other by race, religion, class, profession, etc; forming "gangs" and just calling it something else: cliques, clubs, branches, tribes, etc....countries going to war killing their own ppl to bully another country for it's resources, and ppl encourage it, but you don't get jumped in you "enlist". Marines Army, Navy, bloods, crips, sureños, it's all the same thing. The problem is accountability. Ppl use their affiliation to excuse their wrongs.and too often is violence and craziness in general, encouraged and celebrated. war heroes in military, names like Locos, criminals. Mental illness is the problem if you ask me... Even cops formed their own gangs within departments, and killing is like a rite of passage or initiation who knows.. but again wrongdoing is excused and violence is celebrated...
CW did say he was a "character". Really that's cold blooded device he uses with character shit. Because at anytime for any reason he can just fall back and say "I was in character"
@@boobie04 who? Me? Nah. Not me personally. I'm 41 years old bro. I'm not impressionable at this point. I live in Alabama and I got 4 chi'ren. So I'm just an observer. This particular shit has absolutely no resonance in my life and what I got going on. But like I said. It IS a cold blooded smoke screen to be able to CLAIM u in character anytime somebody calls u out. That's all I'm saying. Cause u can't say he not. U get it bro?
@@boobie04 i on know how old you are bro, but I can promise you my people reading skills have been honed over YEARS of experience. And there is ABSOLUTELY no substitute for experience bro
I've come to realize this generation idolizes the people that lie and make they story sound good but aren't true To them if the lie is more entertaining than the truth who cares
"The only thing that's stronger than a man's pride is a mother's Love. A man will swallow every pill in the world to stay alive, but he won't swallow that pride" 🤔 #Message So cold & so profound Melvin Farmer ~
Is that a bad thing when bad guys kill your brother or cousin. Would you have taken monster kody in your house when he was living in a tent. Him being around your kids. You think mk needed to be left to kill who he wanted to and not call the police. Before you call me goofy think about your kids being around a confessed serial killer like monster kody.
Blacks have been taught to identify with the avatar and not what they really are which is a consciousness that makes all the choices for the avatar ......nobody chooses to be black , white , Arab ect ..we are the choices we make..we are not the avatar
It's a song from 1979 from "Rudulph and Frosty's Christmas in July" movie: Chicken today and feathers tomorrow One day is good and the next day there's sorrow I don't care what, long as I got my guy Chicken today and feathers tomorrow One day I lend and the next day I borrow I don't care what, long as I got my guy I'm like a river, rolling along A carefree river, singing a song And where my hat is, that is where I belong Chicken today and feathers tomorrow Life is that way; there's some joy and some sorrow I don't care what, long as I got my guy I'm like a river, rolling along A carefree river, singing a song And where my hat is, that is where I belong Chicken today and feathers tomorrow Life is that way; there's some joy and some sorrow I don't care what, long as I got my guy I don't care what, long as I got my guy
No matter how you try to clean it these gangs are a thorn in the side of the Black Community I'm in the MF hood what do gangs as a whole do productive in the community ... Shit
I agree, it seems like they are trying to validate a life of violence and incarceration. I understand why they formed, but that is a tribalistic mindset that just separates people more than they already were in the end. If Melvin is actively trying to dissuade people from joining gangs then more power to him but it sounds like he is just feathering his nest and living off his reputation among the younger members
I wanna say GREAT JOB TO ALL THE OLE AZZ GANG DUDES..... cause if any kids are watching they will see join'n up with that foolish gang bullsh.t that they will only end up with a bunch of old stories,no money and maybe a interview on RU-vid KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK OF BEING PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHAT NOT TO DO OR BE ✊
He really doesn't even care if you believe him or not, because you don't even exist in his universe. he just telling his story to those that are genuinely interested,
Believe us your favorite rapper has been robbed in L.A and you will not even know about it. Your favorite actor and athlete as well. Someone getting robbed is nothing to brag about because it is negative and dysfunctional.
@@kevinvines9763 and look at what it manifested into self hate at it's worst we killing over neighborhoods n color schemes.Anybody embracing gangbanging n street culture in general is goofy we dying over this shit and nobody has a problem with it that's crazy in my book
Wait… Wait… Wait… Maybe I’m slow as f**k. But, did this dude just say you can be 50 and join a gang? Is he really advocating that grown ass men join that shit? Somebody help me?
Same white folks in the comments speaking disrepctfully about how 'dumb' we are, are the same folk who cheer on Italian mob movies and mob culture. Most important thing I learned at a very young age, was to never speak on shit I hold no knowledge on. Don't speak on town business if you don't inhabit the land. You could never understand the decisions we are forced to make.
Gangsta! Too many chads and miltons in these comments trying to relate to something that isnt in their environment this shit is cancerous in my area idk why this shit be entertaining to these suburban weirdos
If somebody wrong you at 35years old. Why in the hell you need to join a gang. A grown ass man handle his business. What he said is for the weak. I'm hoping everyone in California don't act like cowards.
Cause y’all not from LA, a 45 year old can catch a case and go to jail, what u think that 45 year old gonna do he’s either gonna become a blood or crip to survive inside
As far as I remember Charleston white says he doesn’t have a problem with LA he has a problem with LA gangs and just from record gang members are the bad guys right or has the role reversal I could be completely wrong 😑
nahh he steady disrespecting Cali as a whole.. he has plenty of videos disrespecting California.. then he tries to back track and clean it up.. nah fck all that
@@maxxpayne309 he only disrespected Cali because they came at him first his original video he called Texas bloods and crips slobs and crabs and said they immitating la that's they shit not ours so that's why he going in on California people they started basically.
We need less Melvin Farmers and more Bobby Johnsons. These dudes still wear their old colors and brag about their reputations instead of talking about how embarrassing it is to shower with men for 30 years. The movie "South Central" is the perfect example of how these dudes should be or they're not worth listening to
@@loufromthalou7268 I know who Melvin Farmer is,that's why I left that comment. You should watch the movie South Central to see why I said more Bobby Johnsons. Melvin and other "OG's" are not effective, they just pocket alot of cash. I've seen interviews based off his reputation, not shit to do with changing anything. If he was truly rehabilitated he would talk about gangs the way I do, not stories about how they started and who started what.
@@AlfaQgoode understandable. I like Melvin and basically all the OGs. I did come up a Crip so I can relate. But you’re right about that statement. I just think that being in the trenches and trying to change things you may relapse.
@@loufromthalou7268 I agree,I like them too simply for changing but as activists they're not much help. Most of these former gangsters are becoming RU-vid famous and flaunting their reputations. When people are ashamed of something they usually refuse to speak about it,these dudes tell stories like they're sitting around a camp fire.
@@boblemonade4635 dane why u all up in his pockets lol ? U on the internet talking about how broke somebody is and dont even know him. Worry about your own pockets smh
@@terrellgaither8699 whether hes broke or not thats his business. Im not worried about nobody else money but mine. Just dont go on the internet talking like u know their bank account when clearly u dont
Not from west coast but I my father told if you don't know about another guy's home or were he's from keep your mouth closed 🤔 this man on here is serious business I can tell by his com demeanor and presents not talking loud very articulate and direct. Real gangster
Man I'm from Cali and I know better than to feed into how Charleston White be thinking he tuff with Cali....look at what happens to rappers and gangsters in Cali...they dying back to back and R.I.P to them dudes... Charleston Whites worst nightmare would be to wake up in the middle of South Central or Compton and that's with his gun on him...
@@CriscobangzX3 exactly bro. And it's that attitude is why CW go off on theM way he do. Mfs can get killed the same way anywhere by anybody for anything. Then motherfukers get big mad when he calls out the whole gang culture for being as stupid as it is, especially when motherfukers try to justify it. LOL. Like what kind of sense do it make saying you might have to join the game for your protection from the beef you inherit by joining the game.
And how is this some ish to brag about? It sounds stupid that you taking pride in that Bro. It also shows how much of an adverse effect that gangs have had on our communities. California in the past was a place that black people ran too for opportunity. But here you are today bragging about how someone would be scared to wake up in South Central, with their gun on them. Shii sound like a bunch of ignorant m####f###as running around terrorizing they own people.
Exactly. Yet these so called og's who many call knowledgeable, allow him to use them for these bs interviews. This internet ish for the birds. All these cats are attention starved.
This a grandpop .... still trying to push that "im hard gangsta" bs..... he will watch the community of youth burn if it meant he could keep his pride. Its why young cats dont respect OG's or have OG's . they know they talk riddles of circle of life that leaves a person in square one they whole life. This is what square one for a life time looks like. You can have a damn street cred i knew i wanted change because this is so painful to see. He allowed a character to get him into his character. The thing he hops around is GANGS ARE POISON STOP HONORING THIS IGNORANT BS.
He should just say "we was wrong, young, and dumb. We caused more genocide of our own people than any white man" but nah, he got his pride. Old fool wasted most his life in a cell.
@@Nobody-ji1oe You right my grandma and grandfather from Hollandale Mississippi and I was born in Chicago and my grandfather and my uncles said that shit all the time 😂
I don't understand y people dont see what cw was saying?he was talking bout dont honor the rappers character or persona he was saying honor the real person thats it 4example LL Cool j dont honor his rap name honor his real name another example is i know people for over 35 years and some of them don't know my real name the know me by my nickname ?
How? Nigga like 80 years old talking about him being a gang member and wearing a colorful sweater. I wish my grandfather would act and dress like that.
@@Whunter22 that's his wife car lmao. I remember in a interview they asked him what he does everyday . He slipped up and said he has to get up early and drop the kids off so that he can drop his wife off and get the car
"Chicken Today and Feathers Tomorrow" is a song sung by Lilly Loraine in the 1979 Rankin/Bass Christmas movie Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July.

@@MicDropBBQ You think that country singer just MADE the saying chicken turned to feathers?? I’m pretty sure it’s a literal saying before the country song the guy was maybe just a good musician…
