Hustler shouldn't need to use much violence to achieve his goals, it is then he becomes a gangster if he needs to.

Hustling usually connected with something illegal. Maybe not in the modern sense but traditionally.
But gangsters have ALWAYS been connected with illegal activity.

if you say someone’s a gangster, you definitely ain’t tippy toeing around their activities

see the difference?

They both use words to get hoes but the pimp is looking to make money and manage the hoe while the Mack wants to smash and maybe get some paper but he don't wanna be a hoe manager

Wouldn't a goon good just be a thug though?


A dude selling bootleg movies and socks isn't hustler.
The bootleg man is definitely a hustler. Whether he’s a good hustler is another convo, but he literally is hustling for a living.

and a thug is an all encompassing term for a menacing person in the streets. It applies to goons as well vagrants who just do street shyt for fun.

This is how it was explained to me;

A Pimp has his women do one thing for money sell illicit sex

A Mack has then do different things like steel and scam along with selling sex.

Thugs tend to be thought of as stupid.
