Philadelphia lowkey has some dope street legends.


ALL CITIES and small TOWNS lowkey got STREET LEGENDS and SENSATIONAL STREET TALES that are movie worthy

when i first moved down south as a Tristate Transplant (ny/nj/conn) to attend college i use to think the South was LAME with the exception of South floida .

i assumed everything down here particularly the southeast part of georgia was just SLOW and EASY GOING.....

i didn't have a clue how DIRTY the south was ....till i got into the promotional game and started traveling to various towns and shyt

and realized how DIRTY THESE COUNTRY MUTHAPHUKAS CAN GET :whew:

and in many times its WAY DIRTIER than the big cities up north...because alot of these street legends and underworld guys find it easy to control and manipulate thier SMALL TOWN GOVERNMENT and POLITICAL AND LAW ENFORCEMENT FIGURES

and they were getting to the MONEY TOO!!...still is

like JEEZY said..."he worth a MILL on the low!" :damn:

i done came across so many country azz kingpins that not only got spots but they got LAND....HOMES...AND STORES

one cat i wont name whom i met yesterday at a wedding reception ..he is a blackman who has like SIX.. 99 cent franchise stores throughout middle georgia

all while alledgely running pounds of Kush for the past decade throughout the same counties his stores is at :mjlol:

but like i told you it's about POLITICAL EXPEDIENCY

this cat is related to a county councilperson and cool with a sheriff in another county

i remember passing thru small hick towns such as Baxley Georgia...Claxton Georgia and coming across all these Flordia plates and all these dudes with Hurricane Jackets on and Gold teeth bumping Jam Poney mixtapes

come to find out all these cats were either Miami dudes or plugged in or working for the Miami Boyz who were supplying these towns with all this product

can't forget the rural areas just outside of augusta and macon where my uncle would take me to make Moonshine runs......

he basically would get a whole pallet or multibags of Sugar from the Cport (savannah) and then get with this crakkker in the country areas outside of savannah and basically go on his "sales route" moving moonshine thru all the "dry counties" (no liquor sales) selling to all the juke joints and illegal bars and after hour spots

he did that for a good minute till his "sugar connect" got busted by the ATF (alcohal tobbaco firearms) and decided to flip on him :snoop:

mane..its so many crazy stories coming out the dirty south from these small towns its crazy

read that book about the CORNBREAD MAFIA and their political connections

What's so great about these cities, really? The racist Italian mob and a bunch of black people selling dope to other black people? Turning whole apartment buildings into drug rings...a continuous cycle of dope addiction...why worship this?

Those cities have more than just crime in their history

In light of this Tekashi fukkery. Discuss...
nyc because the underworld is tied to hip hop along with fashion . ex: dapper dan fashion designer and the shirt kings, and designer karl kani many hustlers catered to them helping them to become famous along with rappers. rappers having ties to street underworld.

. you can make a case with other groups also the mafia history along with other ethnic history and the allure of that underworld led to movies and influence.

Let's face it. People love a good "anti-establishment" story....

Whether it's freeing slaves, writing a Declaration of Independence, selling narcotics, or creating hip hop....makes for great storytelling? even if the outcome may not have been so noble, in the case of poisoning your own people.:unimpressed:

Low key, high key, and middle key, the city is #1. Scarface basically alluded to it in "Feels Good to be Gangsta".
Hell no. Thread title said “interesting.” DC streets only known for murder. They didn’t create any brands or set trends like LA with the bloods and crips, or go from a retirement town to a world class city with an entirely new skyline due to the cocaine economy like Miami.

DC just known for savagery and record-setting murder rates.

Surprised DC of all places didn’t make the list.


No disrespect to DC......

but i think it largely gets overlooked cause its not seen as a BOSSED UP CITY....NOT SAYING THIER WASNT BOSSES THERE ...

respect Michael Fray....

but mostly because of it's proximity on being in the "middle" between New York and Miami on the infamous I 95 DRUG route ..it's a transient spot for hustlers..dealers and killers passing thru along with it's peers virginia and maryland

along with the HBCU's ..howard and hampton it attacted alot of out of towners

Ain't no telling where I may be
May see me in D.C. at Howard Homecoming
With my man Capone, dumbing, fukking something


Its mostly seen as a city where others such as ALPO , Corey Buck and many new york cats along with the Black Mafia outta Philly came to make $$$ and boss up :win:

even the DC natives such as Rayful didn't get truly infamous till they got put on by OUT OF TOWNERS

like when he met this connect WATERHEAD BO from CALI

and lets not forget when Black Tony and the Showa Posse would make thier presence known and start funding all those soundsystems like Emperor Sounds

even D.C comedian Pierre alluded to the Shower Posse presence in the DMV area in that time

New Orleans has to be included. I was gonna run in here and vote for NO.

LA can get a vote, just based on the how Hollywood and the streets/gangs/organized crime/underworld intertwine.

OG Crip Mike Conception making his forey into Hollywood and rubbing shoulders with artist is one such interesting LA tale.

:wow:

I never heard about the Tampa mob till I moved here. People don't talk much about it but what I heard was :sadcam:
Yea the news and city loves to lowkey praise them

The tampa mob is gone and might be the only mob family to go full legit ...They never went to jail like the mobs in the other cities because they actually ran florida
