Philly is Probably the Only City Where Rappers Don't Get Extorted By Gangs

So basically LA where it all started....the leaders/OGs out there shifted their focus from dealing to extorting artists...

They know rappers/singer have to come to LA and move around (record/perform/club appearances).....so essentially they get money extorting them where artists have to pay the hood tax and in turn they get instant clout and protection....that's why you see soulja boys and the chris browns of the world all of a sudden reppin blood or crip

Beefs between artists are usually settled by the OGs that "represent" the them not the artists themselves

In Philly gangs don't fly here ...there's no bloods or crips or any of that. Strictly neighborhoods and "Ol' Head affiliation" This is way Game and Wack and them hate Meek so much cause they can't tax him or have him claiming blood and shyt....he moving squad deep and calculated...and his Ol' heads are certified BM & JBM .....

Long story short I don't really see artists from other cities that fall into this category maybe Oakland? (I see Oakland as Philly's sister city lot's of similarities).....

So whenever i see rappers and singers from all over living in cali and all of a sudden reppin a set i just shake my head... it's sad they are acting hard but are getting extorted heavy.....

No they get extorted by Muslims

Yep:beli:

Dudes are ruthless up there. Beyond that, Philly rarely has a gang problem, it's more so hood shyt. Like Erie Ave vs Nicetown even though they in the same fukking area:snoop:. Oh yeah my personal favorite, Lehigh Avenue vs Erie Ave where this dude got beat the fukk up at a bus stop for claiming LA as he was going to EA:beli:. Bottom line, Philly is weird but it's no gang shyt.

"And you gotta pay Teefy weekly!!"- Ar Ab dissing Meek Mills


All those offspring from the JBM and the Nation of Islam mosque no 12 been extorting philly rappers and deejays for decades now....

The Philly Black Mafia set the trend in the 70s when they provided the muscle and funds for Philly International Records Gamble and Huff artist's Teddy Pendegrass...Patti Labelle..Billy Paul and Harold Melvin

And lets not forget the almighy LG ..old philky heads remember him as the boss of the Hilltop Hustlers (steady b...cool c...tat money etc.)

Same shiit in DC(and the mid Atlantic as a whole), is neighborhood shiit. No gang shiit.

This is not true at all breh.

This is actual factual bruh trust me I am tight with a lot of industry cats....Im not saying all rappers in every city...im saying I can't think of a philly artist that claim blood or crip while other cities can't say the same ...if you don't think bloods and crips aren't taxing artists in LA then I don't know what to tell you bruh.
What’re you gonna extort out of Philly rappers anyways? Cheesesteaks and old copies of The Roots CDs? :jbhmm:

So who's extorting who where brehs? Haitians in Miami? Crips/Bloods in ATL? J Prince in Houston? Who in NO? GDs in the Chi? Who in Detroit?


I was alluding more to the fact that no one coming out of Philly ever repped blood or crip and got taxed out in LA.....im not talking about local shyt.....most artists are backed by someone usually a hustler ....that's a given they bankrolling....im saying they aint out in LA paying gangs for protection to move around....and claiming sets
