Just to add to the video, which I didn't make clear enough. He is NOT a gang member. He just happens to rep the crips. I added in the description some sources showing that DeRozan may represent the crips. You guys can connect the dots, my fault for making this not clear enough. But, the evidence I showed, he definitely has some form of ties to them. He ain't no criminal, I never said that. He obviously never participated in any criminal activity. I'm not a fan of any gangs, don't get me wrong, but I for one don't give af if he likes to represent them.
LOOOOL DeGod DeROZAN ur dumb af.
DeGod DeROZAN the fact that you can't connect the dots of all the facts makes me believe your like 5 yrs old.
Handles UP what other players represent gangs
1:17 nothing just walking by with a pistol just your average day in da hood
Handles UP yo whats that song in your video
"Derozan struggled in college...only a 52% field goal percentage."
Lol
Bruh most of em were layups dumbass
Fam 52% is good it's not great
Isn’t the highest fg % in the nba like ~50%
@@justok2502 50% is good for a guard but there are centers who shoot 60% or even 70%
Just Ok Zion ahooting 64% from the field
He was never in the gang. He said that the gangs protected him cause they knew he was going to make it. But he was never in a gang.
Bruh, didn't he say that in the video? He said the Crips are who were protecting him and that's why he reppin them...
Never watched the video. Just saw the title😂😙
Lily O You must have burned 300 calories by jumping to conclusions that fast lol
sergio soto Nah. I'm in shape. Didn't need to burn any😂😂
Lily O THEN WHY IS HE THROWING UP TWO C'S??? LMAO... WHERE YOU FROM???
Lmao he was a crip but now he has to wear red everytime he plays in a game. I find this shit so ironic 😂
He could've went to the Lakers haha he ain't a real crip like me
Ha!^
IToGoatly_ ™ soooo???
IToGoatly_ ™ some crips have no problem wearing red.. if you a real crip everybody gonna know regardless of what you wear
Alternate jerseys are blue tho lol
He wasn’t a crip the crips protected him
Yea
Yea but thats why it says "Crips"
Why? Because you said it
he's an honorary crip then and that's basically the same thing
@Joseph Rivera they run Atlanta and LA how do they suck?
From Crip, to Star, to Spur
And hopefully an NBA champion
@@joncortezz rns
Belongs to the yyz
accurate.
Franky YT what does Vegeta have to do with this video?
He was here in Toronto for 9 yrs and we love him!So upset when he was traded. He was loyal here in t.o. too. We love Kahwi but Derozan will always b in our hearts
Woah he is *_STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON!_*
Noya👍🏻
So original ...
He's the one who picks those blue Toronto huskie unis 😂 all the time
NO WONDER VINCE GOT SHAKEN UP WHEN HE & HANNIBAL WAS TALKIN BOUT DEMAR 😂😂
I saw that 😂😂
What’s this about ?! Lyrical lyrical
This puts into context his sense of loyalty and the betrayal he felt after getting traded to the Spurs. As a Toronto sports fan for life, this is the first star in my lifetime who chose to re-sign stay in Toronto, instead of ditching the team and the city to join a better team. ( Bosh, McGrady, Carter ). For this reason he’s my favourite Raptor of all time. Only disappointing thing about the championship was that he didn’t get it, but without him we wouldn’t have gotten Kawhi
Hey, crab still lead to your teams Championship so you can still have mad love for him, even on another team.
Exactly!!! Loyal to the end!!! Toronto!!
Yo do Jimmy Butler's story. He went from being homeless as a kid to NBA superstar
NothnButHeat *Nba star*
The Chosen One #LOB #GoHawks yeah
There's already a video on that
superstar????
nicholas jamele yes SUPERSTAR
“Iam just like derozan, if I shoot it, it goes in😴💥” - KYLE
"I'm just like DeRozan, if i shoot it it goes in " im here because of that phrase
Yea Demar DeRozan was protected he wasn’t a crip
he reps Compton not Compton Crips...smh. By the way I live in Compton and he comes by Compton High to support the basketball Team
James Jeffers which Crip hood did he grew up in?
DeGod DeROZAN I didn't say he was a crip. I just asked which crip hood he grew up in.
DeGod DeROZAN alright I feel u. I was just wondering. I've seen also that Arron Afflalo of the Nuggets went to centennial high so I'm guessing he grew up in Westside Piru hood.
+7601jrod he grew up in poccet hood crib on Norde st
he probably does a lot for the community that we don't know of cause the media won't dare to go there.
DeRozan ❤
TGMTube yoo
That nigga look like my ass
purple haze Talk shit when you make it to the NBA
purple haze Stop talking about yourself bitch
you mean 💙
Cemar CeRozan.
This narration Sounds like a bad high school report.. C-
You look like you use your index finger when you read .
Nah, I use your moms.
b brim21 whatz up fool
Rafeal Luna- whatz up fool
the narration doesn't matter as much
I went to Compton high school with him never seen him throw up any hoods up its was blue cuz that school is on crip side nd centennial is piru all red on the other side of compton
Matt Lombardo net ass banger
That’s big cap
Eli Gomez ya sure you went to school with him
@@tripps607 y'all act like it's impossible to go to school with someone who is (now) famoes dumb ass nigga
Its Piru’s on both sides
The fact this dude tweeted he wore blue everyday in high school as a professional athlete for everyone to see is tight as hell
"I am just like Derozan. If I shoot it it goes in"♪edit: Update guys it's 2018 and Derozan still frozen in the playoffs
RJ McDonald ik someone was gonna say it
Joka XD I was thinking it the whole time. lol
What's the name of the song? B
Martin Martin "ISpy"
RJ McDonald thanks
3:46 lol that face though 😂
He looked like Deebo
Nah he look like dude in the wheelchair on Don't Be A Menace... Lol
Thank you Demar, you are my inspiration and my game is fully shaped around you. You may be seen as inefficient, a choke artist, overrated, but I will never forget what you gave to my city and i cannot thank you enough. You are the reason i watch basketball the way I do and you are an instrumental piece to our championship despite never touching the chip. Dont listen to the haters and shoot them 3s bro, ik you can make em.
I really hope y'all understand his numbers were always good. For a rookie to get 9 ppg is good. Now I personally didn't think he'd be the player he is now but great for him hard work will put you there
Beat is from Citizen Cope - let the drummer kick that
THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Zillfred we need more people like you
Zillfred aye!!! He came to my school!!
Zillfred dude thank you so much!
He shoots it and it goes in
FAZE Mozzy nice rap song reference
Holy shit i was just thinking about that
Jimmy butler had a more inspirational homeless, father left, mom kicked him out
DOGOESMEOW And stuf mj is his father
Joka XD lmfao that's just a rumor bozo
but he aint a crip so.
Pope Francis DeRozan ain't a crip he was just protected by them coz they knew he was gonna make it
It's not a contest.
(Is a Crip)
(Wears a red Raptor Jersey)
“wait, that’s illegal”
Uzi ! Colors don’t matter much crips can wear red and bloods can wear blue it’s not the colo r that matters much it’s the type of clothing they wear it’s just that colors help distinguish gangs but that’s not the main thing.
Uzi ! Who color bangs
Diego ! Dum ass you can wear red if you a crip you a kid nigga
Diego ! That’s not how it works buddy
@Jesse Reichardt it only matters 6out da colored flag dey wearin in dey poccets not they shirts n shit ya goofy
“But when he decided to shoot, you KNEW it was a brick” lol that made me giggle like a mf
Say that shit now..
when you have a mill subs remember that I was wit you since the start
Aha, thanks!
Handles UP me too
Still ain't gettin nothin
Raafay Piracha yeah man been here since like 100 subs
XYFUSIONHD lies
HE HAS SOME HANDELS 😂
Áskell You mean Handles. (No hate)
Áskell gies men ai nooy
Handles*
@@kian6787 it's Handel not handle!
He's a crip. John Wall is a blood. Nobody's throwing up gang signs without being in one.
DeGod DeROZAN I wouldn't know it, but I mean some don't bang
you must not watch modern hip hop videos...huh lol
probably
not true look at drake.
6ix9ine already told him my goodness
69 is a blood I think
@@IllShivyou they kick him out because he snitched
"And his daddy"😂
😂😂😂
Lmao that gun was big as a bitch 😭😭
myob2dac Lmfaoo
He wore blue everyday in high school, he must be a crip ! lol wow
lmfaoooo
He always throws the Compton crip sign lol
For Christmas, his Santa suit when showing up to a children's hospital in Toronto was all blue... He's definitely a crip 😂
I also wore blue everyday because the was the school uniform
He wore blue everyday then in the nba he had to wear red
“flashing gang signs.... remembering his roots” 🤣😂😅
DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS they don’t color bang no more
Fk off
Demar Derozan is probably the most under rated NBA Player right now, he has a lot of talent
Facts. It's crazy that people think he sucks just because he cant shoot threes
@@samuelgould4274 jordan was never known for threes
@ 5:11 when your finally about to see wizard Kelly for the first time 👹
Still think Jimmy Butlers story was more amazing
MattDaMiner who cares. that isn't Demar's story. What the f*ck does Jimmy Butler's story have to do with Demar's story? Demar can't have his own story without it being compared to someone else's story? lol
MattDaMiner why don't u do a butler video and stop complaining
Brock Vaught bitch ass nigga that's his opinion cuh nigga leave his ass alone cuh
This is a great story man great job! He's my favorite player but I never really knew his back-story!! I subbed gr8 job bro!!!
Touching story honestly, I got nothing but love, and respect for him rs💯💯💯🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I just pray that he remain humble and dont allow his gang run his pockets dry🙏🏾
Compton has definitely made their share of feel good stories considering the elements .Keep striving to get better Compton!
Lol, i like how you make the crips sound like good guys. “The crips protected him.” From who? The crips themselves? Wow such heroes.
Anthony Arnold you are so dumb
Money Mark fr
From different sets dumbass
From other gang members? You know innocent people in the street get shot up all the time right? Dumb ass comment 🤦🏿
1:59 my old high school 🤙🏻😭
Lol nice profile
😍😍
Demar Derozon’s b day is the same as mine 😂
Glad you mentioned how humble Demar is, that's what I respect about the guy he is truly humble.
Look at Demar man such a inspiration
ALL HAIL THE KING OF THE NORTH!!!!
GARRY S stfu
How bout you stfu.. Deebo in the north you dumb fuck..
Baby Jordan what up

Some Dreams comes True.
Welcome to San Antonio DeRozan !!!
When you come from where DeRozan came from and you end up where he is, he's definitely the blessed one. His grandma was a prophet.
Great story for someone who strove to work harder. This vlog is a keeper.
0:40 should have been nicknamed sharkboy
Fariko Xphyr lmaoooooooo my exact thoughts
Demar DeRozan is my favorite player, Hearing this story was really sad for me.
Late but why does it make you sad?
Samuel Gould His family members died....
@@darthvader3 Yeah but bro made it lol, he made then proud.
Who is here after the trade
Meee
DeRozan must love wearing those Huskies jerseys 😂😂
I now have a whole new perspective and respect for Demar derozan, i have always liked him but i like him even more now!!!
you can't leave a gang...
Áskell nope
yes u can... you can get jumped out yourself or DP’d meaning they choose to beat u up and kick u out
Áskell on gang that tru
What should I name myself dam calm down with that hate
siberscorpian 13 that’s not hate at all idiot
That's not even his eyes on the left in the thumbnail smh.
Nemo ur dumb it's just a picture it's not supposed represent him
Splash In yo mom Should roast him
Nemo no shit dumbass
Nemo it's supposed to show the gang sign i think
Its 1600 Oaks Park E/S Santana bloCC Compton Crip on mine since age 13 and God bless me to see 38 today. Been knowing De since he was in Jr High. His family was always Lo2C!
Demar derozan was always a good mid range scorer. he never had trouble shooting.
Demar derozan is one of my boys he plays on the bulls with me on 2k he really needs to be known for how great he is
Wasn't John wall throwing up gang signs to?
This channel underrated af
Kavi Gupta this channel is horrible. Facts aren't even near accurate. He speaks about the urban community as if he never been outside in the city a day in his life.
J B preach
Kavi Gupta not really think it’s where it should be. I personally regret watching this video.
Lmaoooo “ Compton crip sign “😭 just say crip sign 🤦🏼♀️😂
Compton crip is what he threw up CC
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
The most astonishing NBA story is Jimmy Butler's
He’s The Man.
I’m ballin in da city like derozan💯
DeMar DeRozan not Crippin' no more, cuz on da court makin' millions
He forgot to mention how derozan got Lil Romeo his buddy a college scholarship
Crip + wore blue everyday in High School *_But plays for the Toronto Raptors, whom main colors are Red_* 💀
KillaBoy 28 ya lol
KillaBoy 28 lmao some of the most well known crips wear whatever they want. Plus he was never a crip, he was affiliated with them, big difference. He wouldn't be a basketball player if he was jumped in.
KillaBoy 28 He ain't even a crip he just grew up around gangs
Skeets he was affiliated with the Compton crips he was a "crip" I guess I don't think he banged thoe
KillaBoy 28 But sometimes wears blue for the huskies
Wow! I grew up in Long Beach and witness the same and similar thing with DeMar. Jesus his score is amazing.
Yo cuzy, welcome to The Tone 210. Rocking the Cowboys colors is a must here in S.A.Texas.
I miss the backround beat, it felt deep and serious.
MikeBNoel 1 Let the drummer kick by Citizen Cope
He on Spurs now my home town
Damn imagine the crips watching derozan wearing red
Rite Toronto he left they ass 😆
Gangs don’t colorbang anymore, it’s all about the hood you live in
Darren Miller he was never in it
Ppl don't Color 6ang yall Clowns learn shit 6efore yall talk
LowSix Owe where u frm?
and now he's a Spur --- he should fit right in.. Go Spurs go! Great work bro -- thank you
I went to Enterprise Middle School in Compton with bro in 8th grade. I got this memory of my mom talking shit about his pimples on his face at the 8th grade graduation/ceremony, she said she wanted to take a face towel & squeeze his cheeks to pop all the pimples 😂 I first saw him on TV signed to the Raptors in like 2006-2007 & was super proud of him. & We really used to call him Debo too lol. I'm proud of this brotha 💯💪🏾
Do one on James Johnson from Miami Heat. He seems intriguing!!!!
I feel like the crip thing was bate...u offered 0 proof
spaidify he wasn't a crip, the Crips protected him
1:40 99.9% true
great shit deebo we (Compton) are proud of u #C-High4Life
Dbo was my best friend in middle school keep up the good work fam Enterprise days
Nice video. But Mike Korzemba uses that background music just saying .
But this is really a great video though .
Derozan is the best

“I am just like Derozan, when I shoot it goes in” ~ SUPERDUPERKYLE
God had calling all on their life
derozon grew up hard. Im black
woman I didn't grow up around
hood our gangs. I'm glad blessed
your life brother.. Salute for all the
kings keep up great work hard work always pay off.
Caramel Mill women don’t have the same pressures men do in the hood they can use pussy to get by
I think I'm being a hater right now but... I feel like this video shouldn't of been made. Just seems salty and shows Derozan in a bad light overall. He's not a gang member he's bigger than that and I can guarantee you Westbrook, Harden, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and all the other abundance of NBA players from LA all had some type of relationship with gang members. But I really feel like overall with the thumbnail and shit is reaching bro and I pray nobody takes this shit seriously.
Rampart D. how is it "hating" to call out someone with NO journalistic integrity, someone too lazy to get their facts in order BEFORE making a video full of ignorance, and someone that doesn't know what an "inspiration" actually is?
Since when have the punkasses gained a foothold where those calling them the punkasses that they are now start to doubt whether the punkasses are punkasses... or if it is just a bunch of "hating?"
When did this cultural lie become a reality?
Punkasses, lies, unvetted misinformation, undeserved praise... etcetera... calling out these things isn't hate - it is intellect people refusing to allow shitty actions and people to go unchallenged publicly.
"Hating" is right up there with "snitching."
The same kinds of socially WORTHLESS people preach both because they don't want resistance when they rape, steal, kill, lie, cheat, betray, or are just plain dumb as Handles Up is.
Rampart D. Kawhi was not in a gang and neither was Westbrook that's just stupid to say that when you don't know what you're saying.
You read that wrong bro
Rampart D. Paul Pierce is a nhp from inglewood
16k views... 350 subs... What??
crippin bout familia yah ain't nothin. czup to all the freedom fighters. blessed
Respect 👍 overcome the struggle. Stayed true to the game.
Rozen has the same birthday as me
WIN NYJ ok?

Kimbling stinga Too late, but I guess we'll trade ya fo Kawhi
RunningBear ....still a Razon fans❤
ouch
Yikes......
Kinda ironic that the raptors wear red...😂😂
Real crips don’t color code
I know u bouta hit 1mil just know i been here bro since the start
Congratulation to this young man for getting to the NBA. While I understand that he is proud of his community. Throwing up gang signs is unacceptable. The NBA should fine him $1M each time he throws up a gang sign during a game. As Black people we have to stomp out this dysfunctional and criminal behavior in our communities.
