Being in Texas I was one of the only guys getting Don Diva, Fedz, Troy Reed videos from Black Star videos in Harlem I think. That Frank Lucas was tough, and that Troy Reed "Alpo" was Amazing, it was an adrenaline rush.. They had Alpo talking, kind of narrating his life. I get that the Ray story was more cinematic like. But that Alpo was super nice. Karlton Hines is a slept on gem as well. Just so I'm not glamorizing this stuff... Those vids/mags taught me that no one ever Won.. Frank Matthews included.. 2-5 years of balling for 20 years to life isnt worth it... millions of addicts, children displaced, growing up in poverty with pure pain/hate. Yuppies millionaires off of the prison complex. All around Lost for our people as a whole.
Im from the DMV and I will say….What Gully saying about the Rayful DVD is true, that shit was a dvd man classic and was before all these youtube docs BUT that Dunkin Hines joint was classic too….He just wasnt on Ray level. Classic nonetheless though 🔥🔥🔥
Women don’t care about the same things men do. A lot of the DC Old heads some who you had on your channel was pissed about the video and was calling people out who are hype about his release I follow them on IG. Of course the people who he looked out for will still appreciate and have love for him.
@@TaeLuciano88 How would you know that and what does Alpo have to do with Ray? They both snitched, have big egos, charismatic, charming, flashy, and flamboyant. Everyone who spoke on Alpo that knew him personally said he was a likable dude I personally think they’re two in the same. Having more money doesn’t make someone more likable.
@@aigneraigner6122 I can agree to that it is saying that rifle is more charismatic in his appearance. And also, I study a lot of Street history and I could just can tell from the two.
Salute Gully Tv You right King …Big Meech Ain’t Have the bread rayful had..I came across Rayful at the Basketball games back in a days and he was that Dude
Yo, I moved to DC to live with my people in 1987. We ALL were getting money!!! Years later I moved to Apartments in Lorton, VA across from the prison to wrap up the whole DMV legacy.
I need to say this to you dude you actually lied on one of your shows. I had respect for up until that point. You a real crab and we can make it personal if you like
Rayful WAS a God in DC but he isn’t anymore. I was just watching a news broadcast and the news anchor said there’s many people who still love him but there are also many people who’s not happy about his release. He said those people didn’t want to speak about him on camera but they spoke about him off camera and they’re displeased. He need to stay from out of DC but it seems like he has a big ego he’ll be back.
@@ourcultureourmusic3299 Even Alpo laid low for awhile before he really popped out and showed his face we didn’t really start seeing videos and pictures of Po until like 2018/2019 after his mom and sister passed and he got out in 2014. Rayful seems like he just got out of PC and already letting it known he’s out.
I was reading the comments on the blogs that posted about Rayful and was surprised to see that a lot of people didn’t know who he was even some young people from DC and didn’t know that he turned informant.

Rayful and Tony Lewis were on the same trial and got found guilty on the same trial. Rayful didn't snitch on Tony Lewis. He started telling years later.
Back in the day Rayful was hitting everybody in DC and everybody was getting a lot of money he looked out for a lot of dudes I remember it like it was yesterday.

Morning J, Know This Is Ain"t No Stop The World & Let Me Off Info.. Ive Been Hearing Rayful, & T.V. News Reporters, Have Had Rayful At 4 Different Ages ,.... Between 55 - 59 !!!!
I still got Troy Reed/ Alpo DVD number one out that era but Ray was a true definition of a King Pin. No one did it bigger than him from the African American community …
Wait the wire was out then. I have the rayful dvd tou soeakjng about as well as the wire. Used to but each episode of the wire via bootleg. Matter of fact rayful the wire alpo paid in full by azie i had all them joints rhat bkackstarr was selling and more around that time
Disclaimer: I don’t care about street ninjas and street politics however I do care about the truth and want to make a correction. Gully he did tell on Tony Lewis and Tony confirmed this in his vlad interview. Toney Lewis Jr confirms it in interviews and his book. This notion or narrative that he only told on dudes that stole money is false. In fairness, they did lock the dude her family up, including his mother and other immediate family members. When he 1st told it was to get his moms and other immediate family members out of jail. He got caught again selling drugs after he was already locked up and he told again. That’s why he did 30yrs despite him cooperating with the Feds. I have no problem with you, I watch your channel, and follow your IG page. I’m just stating facts that are not included in this video.
More money don't make you bigger.. mean you got More money. Alpo was feared, he had crazy impact. How you know people don't want Rayful dead. Seem like you tooting your own horn, it do matter that he not coming to you. If not why speak on it
HBO NETFLIX NEED TO DO A SPECIAL ON HIM THEY HAVE THE RESOURCES TO GET ALL THE OLD DOCUMENTS PICTURES VIDEO WIRE TAPS ETC .. GET OTHER PEOPLE FROM THAT ERA TO TALK ALSO NEED TO INCLUDE TONY LEWIS ...
I personally don’t think Ray story is better than the PNF/Alpo/Frank Matthew’s, etc. story but that’s my personal opinion. It’s a lot of layers to their story besides Ray being the #1 kingpin out in DC I feel like his story is a little similar to other kingpins.
@@rugbyru9530 Y’all keep bringing up who had more money what does my comment have to do with money? Just because Rayful had more money doesn’t mean anything I just simply feel like the PNF/Alpo story is better. What can’t y’all comprehend? lol
Rayful vs Meech You can’t really compare the 2. Ray was a kid with millions and had a city on lock. Prison at age of 24. His rise and fall was Fast. I don’t think he reached his peak . It was too much $$$ . Magic Johnson was making 2.4m a year. Ray was seeing that allegedly weekly or bimonthly according to the rumors. Meech was in his 30’s when they had their Run. 10 + years later. When I say run I am referring to when the business was optimized for an extended period of time.
Yeah but he switches it up depending on location. He dressed like a Brooklynite, Harlemite, a Philadelphian, and now a Washingtonian. If he start D riding LA or Utah it’s gonna be a whole nother look.
