Doesnt appear he holds any weight on his own and not even from his own set. How you a blood but need a big OG Crip to prop you up? Means he ain't about shyt ans there would be no repercussions from Big U for clapping this slob, he would just have someone else to take his place in the scheme which would be another blood no doubt
2 P's is the biggest gang in its area on either side, there is alot of reputables from that gang (one of my relatives from Van Nuys used to run with them before he moved to Arkansas years ago). That's not just some quiet in the house hood, there's some separation and internal friction with them but if none of the older cats from his era really putting him in line like that he gotta hold some weight...
And the understanding I have is he has at least some sweat equity, he did alot of time upstate and ain't no hoe stories out about him. And I'm saying all that to say I don't think he's this Tough Tommy---->he an older cat you can find in any hood, living off his younger self while trying to make up lost time...
Wack is a plant though, he not breaking no molds in the managing aspect and I completely agree there would be any number of other nikkas to do what he does. Its industry shyt. He just seized the opportunity with the right people at the right time...
End of the day, if any of them dudes who don't like how Wack speak on Nipsey, they can get at Wack, and I'm not talking about gunplay. But cats have and have had the opportunity to get at Wack, he ain't exactly hiding. So that means either there's alota fake love going around for Nip or nikkas speaking in his behalf just trying to be heard---->like Wack. But none of that to me means Wack is this ultimate g, like some people in here have intimated...
For TI, he should recognize instantly this is kinda Wack's thing, say some unpopular shyt and flex like he pulling cards. Tip is a more prominent player I'm the game than Wack, so I have no clue why he even dignified dude with a response, but this is why Tip never realized his "Jay-Z of the South" potential. Hov didn't get where he is by responding to every little thing random nikkas said about him, and when he did choose to respond to people it wasn't often instant and emotional...
