Ground breaking interview and it's always good to hear about life in a different Clique and hearing a different perspective on his Gang affiliation. Looking forward to hearing Part 2!!

      Reason why is OGs that grew up with Latino's back in the day. And then they get kicked out or shipped back to Asia. And Latino Culture is all they know. Their friends were all Latino. And they bring it back home. And influence the locals there.
      I knew a black kid whos parents moved him to live with his grandparents cause hes parents didn't want him hanging around gangs. He ended up starting a gang here, so now there was American gang culture influencing the young teens cause it was introduced to them

      That's because DJ Vlad isn't a efficient Interviewer. He has good guests/Interviewees & even great ones but he himself is not good at doing the interviewing. He also bases some stuff on sources that aren't even legitimate. Like his whole thing about Cholos was based on "American Me" smh. I seen that in an interview he did with Big Tray Dee. He also asked Tray Dee what I thought was a dumb question if there was "Mexicans" in Long Beach smh. I thought hello LBC is in Califas of course there is as there would be in many places here. Also he asked if there was Mexican Gangs in Long Beach well yeah most Cities & Towns & even unincorporated areas/CDP's have Varrios in them here. Long Beach yes they have West Side, North Side & East Side Longo which are all separate Gangs by the way, Barrio Small Town & Barrio Pobre & there was an older Varrio called T (Toker) Town Flats that died out. The 3 Longo Gangs & Barrio Small Town are the oldest of them all & Barrio Pobre started up there in the early to mid '80s. T Town Flats was around I wanna say in the late '70s til sometime in the '80s.
