Tray Deee on Him & Snoop Being from Rival Gangs, Signing to Him Anyway (Part 12) 

Trey Deee my favourite regular Vlad guest. Guys a stone cold g all the way through. Keeps it all the way 100 and respectful . Doesn't try and act hard or glorify anything . Just reflects on his life and keeps it positive. Not many dudes like this anymore.

"Im a OG" - this is one of the rare times when you hear a rapper say that and you KNOW they tellin the truth.

Man Snoop Dogg presents the Eastsidaz is one of the most slept on Klassic albums ever!!! S/O to Tray Dee

You should get Goldie loc. That’ll be dope for the people and the Eastsiderz fans .!

"Twenty first street, birth street, where it all started, you know east side Long Beach, the hardest!" Bars from a G!

Big tray Dee a lyricist that holds the title and respect of an OG 💪

I heard when gang members get older they realize how silly it all is💯wish our black people would get it together ❤

Vlad: So what did your homies say?? Tray Dee: I'm a OG!! In other words, they ain't say shit.

Trey Dee exudes so much confidence .. you can tell he knows who he is and is very comfortable with himself. I respect that. Most people aren’t that way

Everytime Vlad says "Ah-ha" I be like, "he going to jail!"

Let us get a W.C. Interview 💯

Tray Dee a real one. I can listen to his interviews all day!! His knowledge is untouchable.

VLAD! Get GOLDIE LOC in that chair!! And get DJ QUIK in that chair!!!! Do us a solid bro! 🤣

You know trey dee can spit when even Kurupt recognizes his lyrical ability.

vlad treats people in gangs like they're some exotic mysterious animals, "Really you guys have friends who've fought". Like normal people dont have friends who dont know each other who fight

Snoop & Tray Deee could be an example that all neighborhoods could actually get along & make money together & squash all dat shit

WHO REMEMBER THE NATIONWIDE RIP RIDE ANTHEM..♿♿♿

I remember moving to Long Beach from STL to live with my ol dude.. My mother sent me with all brand new cardinals gear and brand new red dope man Nikes.. I was about 8 or 9 at the time my ol dude tossed all that in the trash and said we gotta go shopping in the morning.. We went to Compton Swapmeet and got all blue gear from the dickies to the blue suede Filas.. This was late 80s early 90s.. It was about survival.. It's sad but I went from 8 to 18 that lifestyle taught me how to move and what not to do..

21 Jump Street was a classic cut. They were on some real emcee sh*t on that

Did he say "Ah Ha!!" like he solved the case???

Kinda crazy that Big Tray is almost 14 years older than Goldie. Most def the OG of The Eastsidaz

Nate Dogg put the beef out there on wax between 20’s & Insanes back on the Dogg Food album: “Some homies wanna Roll With Me(Rollin 20’s)...some homies claim insanity (Insanes) but if you wanna set trip I will...if you don’t wanna drop be still...”

Count Vlad: “Ah ha”

After Bangin' On Wax dropped, is when you started hearing neighborhoods/sets being mentioned in the mainstream. Before that, like Tray Dee correctly said, it was just alluded to. Bangin' On Wax broke that barrier.

Tray Deeee needs his own podcast like yesterday

That shirt he wearing go hard..I remember buying that CD ,that album is a west coast classic.

Still can't get enough of that shirt or that great album. That and West Side Connection Bow Down are all classics(Both are Top 10 Hip Hop albums)

Goldie loc is a true spitter very underrated

I'm the OG gangsta rap historian..lol. "Squeeze the trigger" by Ice T(1987) was actually the first rap song to reference gang sets.. He referenced the "Rollin 60s," "VNG," "Grape Steet" & "The Jungle,". Your welcome Vlad:)

That 21 Jump street is 🔥!! But Tray Dee blacked out on that verse on Reality on the DPG album .

Just think how powerful our communities would be if it was about our people and not hoods or colors and our young people properly guided, educated and organized!

No the crip and blood album and albums came out before Snoop shortly after DJ Quik who remember those records?

I love tray dee for being a real one they dont make em like that no more

Give It To Em Dog was their first song? Daaaaaamn, thats my shit. That bassline tho!!

It would be cool to know more stories about Tha Eastsidaz album

That shirt is 🔥🔥. I use to see that cover all the time in record stores back in 99/2000.

I need that shirt, one of my favourite albums

21 jump street still bangs

Signing to enemies been cool since Death Row Era/94

Vigilant Los Angeles Detective TV (VLADTV) continues his obsession with 10 - 20 year old Death Row/Blood/Crip related drama!!!!

ay i enjoyed that shit haha, storytelling on point, Tray Deee was a real cool guest to see interviewed. West Coast 🌊

Say it Tray, gang banging is the stupidest thing to ever happen to our culture

Dj Quik was saying....Swinging from tree to tree in the 80s

Dat song Trae Dee mentioned called "Give it to em dog" is still a slapper

Deee being modest he was bangin on EVERY song he was on.

What ever happened with the Mack 10 interview?

I been waiting for Vlad to ask Tray Deee this question for years now lol

Who said big soldja ain’t from the hood🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

BACK ON THE SMASH w/ Tray Dee and Kurupt is thee hardest shit EVER! The most gang banginest shit I've ever heard. Tha Eastsidaz is one of the hardest groups ever. Wish they would drop another album

One of the realist. No matter the question..O.G keeps it 100 and the deliverance...Goldie Loc and quic interview would be legendary too..salute to O.G trae D..man that shirt is legendary

Wish Vlad would put Tray Deee on the spot an ask him if Snoop was official in the streets😂

He signed because the money was the motive 🤷🏾‍♂️

Definitely got a new profound respect for tre dee!!! Great interview very articulate! Much respect!

Very good interview, but it is sad that we are still talking about L.A gangs 90's gang in 2020

'Make Long Beach Fun Again' - Tray Dee

Vlad's "Ah hah!" be killing me

G'd Up by Tha Eastsidaz is still one of my favorite West Coast tracks of all time. Perfect C-Walkin beat!

it would be dope to see Snoop do a Vlad interview. Snoop come in and get interrogated. what was it like growing up in LBC during the crack era? it was called ready rock 😄

He moved from being a kid to being a grown man.

I ain’t gon lie, I always wondered who the Long Beach Crips fonked with back in the day being that Long Beach has always been and still is a Crip city.

Wow some great inside info on how the Eastside coming together. Props to Vlad for being persistent and asking follow up questions.

Tray Deee is as real as it gets.

Snoop wanted to be Insane Crip first.

80-90 dead homies in one neighborhood/set? That's nuts

It’s crazy how he said the first track him and Goldie Loc hopped on with snoop was “Give it to em Dogg’ That’s my Favorite Eastsidaz track besides “I don’t know” Goldie Loc snapped on that bih how he came in on the first verse

Always a pleasure to see OG Tray Deee on here. Salute to the loc✊

We need another MC Eiht interview. We also wouldn't mind another Daylyt interview

I always thought Trey Deee & Snoop was from the same hood and TD was fresh out of prison and Snoop put him on Doggfather.

That's the one thing about the Crips gangs I've always noticed. They beef more with each other. Even in my city the Crips beef with each other while all the Bloods cool with each other.

Tray Dee is the only guest that Vlad listens to without interruption or talking over, notice that?

what a dope ass story man. salute big tray dee

Swinging from tree to tree it's me/ I'm dj Q and I don't claim fruits/ I hustle for mine and I don't rock suits/ and I'm from 400 West block spruce. Dj quik redtape ,1987 ,no label

Tray dee gives some of the best interviews hands down

Give it 2 em Dogg one of my favorite tracks ever!

MONEY 💰 TALKS

Don't forget Banging on Wax they we're the first too throw up they sets and claim their hoods

Tray dee go on drink champs bro

Tray, "it's all about the paper."

They not mentioning that the 20s and Insanes are all in one neighborhood living next door and across the street sharing turf. From what I understand they don’t have separate neighborhoods

Them Sacramento crips from the gardens represented crip and they set hard in the early 90s

Bloods vs Crips banging on wax they definitely put their sets on the record.

Tray Deee let that shit be known real quick with Vlad. “I’m an OG”

Crazy cause warren g was like hit a left on 2-1 and lewis damn Pittsburgh steelers rollin 20s Insane crips raiders /indians

His neck always makes me want to shave, and Finnish with "Aqua velvet"

Massallah Tray D a real one

Get DJ Quik and Goldie Loc on Vlad.

I was in the fed joint with insane crips and insane vice lords

Thank God Daz wasn't in the Eastsidaz...

Tray Deee is always real with it..

Man this brother is what we need... he should be thE president of gangstaism

1:14 I never knew the 20s and Insane war had that many bodies dropped. Sheesh . That’s like the 60s vs 8trey rivalry from Long Beach

Lol😂 Vlad got ✅by A OG!!! "I'm A OG"

Keep'em coming Vlad... Salute...

Tray dee is a cool cat and chooses his words wisely when vlad spazzes out. Real shit

Eastsidaz the best music came from Long Beach

I went to HS in Long Beach. It’s way more Insane, baby insane , and YFC’s (which is all under insane crips) than any other gang in Long Beach.

Speakin of QUIK🤔Bring him in Vlad!

“I got warrants, bad tags still saying f*** it! Headed up the doghouse, swerving in a BUCKET!” -Tray deee verse on “Dogghouse”
