He didn't say he had beef with boy George ,he said boy George pressd him and told him he was going to kill his family and Joe said he cried and ask George not to kill his family. He kept it real to me
Those were crazy times in the Bronx. Living in Soundview myself and running with cats from Castle Hill. My parents saved up and moved us to Long Island in 1976. That was a life changing move for me an my siblings. I still got nothing but love the the Bronx!
Damn you was there at a time when a lot shit was going on as kid ? You don’t have to elaborate or give examples I’m from west Oakland?ca l..we’re not as sophisticated as the times in New York And I always thought New York system of hustling was economically sound for everyone..
George was in a group home with my brother in Westchester. He used to bring George home to Queens and he would occasionally stay the weekend with us. He was a real cool cat. Was shocked when I heard he was Boy George.
Probably Children’s Village. That’s one of the most common ones in Westchester. Right in Dobbs Ferry. So many guys go there and end up turning out like him, spending years locked away. Sad.
The US doesn’t want you meddling in their drug business so they throw the book at you because they can. Ever notice how pedophiles and rapists only get a few years? Yeah, that’s because the elites be doing that shit and don’t want to make laws that are as harsh as the ones they have for drugs.
I remember meeting a guy back in 1989, i was looking to put piping on my brand new BMW 5 series leather interior. Piping is the trim that go around the headrest and seats. Depends on where you go, it can cost from $1500-3k. This guy I met, asked me if I’ve ever herd of Boy George? I told him no. He told me he just finished doing the interior of BG 750 BMW in Ostrich skin and would I be interested in doing mine. At that time, I’ve never herd of a cars interior done in Ostrich skin. I followed him to his shop, that was somewhere in Mid Town Manhattan. He started showing me all the James Bond features the BMW had changing license plates, Oil slicks etc etc. Then we got to the interior, I kept steering at the Ostrich skin front seats. They were amazing!!! I asked how much? He said 7k. I was thinking to myself, that was pretty expensive. Remember. I had only thought about the 1,500-3k price tag for the piping. I kept thinking this Ostrich skin would be different, not many had interiors like this. I made up my mind to get the Ostrich skin, but before I could tell the guy yes. He tells me, 7k is for the front seats, the back seats are 11k. Even tho I was getting some money, this Boy George dude bag was different😂 18k for the interior, not counting sound system, spoiler kit, rims and all the bells and whistles he had done to that car. I’d say he spent about 50k on extras for that car, not counting the 70-80k price tag the BMW 750i cost from the dealer…. #ThefirsttimeiherdthenameBoyGeorge

Dope cover… I read a book that was a associated with one of his side jawns when I was locked up at like 15 years old. I was by Adrian Nicole LeBlanc random family. Book was fire 🔥. It was definitely relatable and mirrored a lot of my up bringing in the 90’s asa Boricua Kid growing up in the streets of Reading PA.

“The loudest in the room, is the weakest in the room”…people seemed to be confused about the life in prison for a 2 year run. He killed & had people killed. Y’all seemed to be missing that. It’s premeditated murder. Of course you’re going to get life for that 😂
Dude, get your facts correct brotha Houses in Puerto Rico were not $400K cash in the late 70s to 1980s. $400K in America back then would get you something extravagant.
Damn this dude was a legend in the Bronx too bad just like alot of heavy hitters got too flashy and had a short run and got caught up messed up story 💯
So true !!!! That’s one dude from Harlem richard fritz was the real plug never was flashy never had a car but he was the real Wholesaler if you needed 100 keys richard had it he wouldn’t dress flashy most people didn’t know who he was .

I wouldn't trade my freedom for a life sentence without the possibility of parole for only 2 years on the streets and his whole entire crew snitch on him. Boy geroge will die in prison and never see the streets ever again.
Dope is the harshest drug. Breaks families. Creates Monsters out of ordinary people, begets violence and disorder and generally destroys communities. Since that's all he ever knew, he would attempt to recreate that reality to his benefit wherever he is unleashed.

@@billymercedes-le8pl I hear you, I'm 6 years younger than Boy George. But, I got pics from 15 days old and up. Video of my baptism at less than 1 year old and video of me at 10 years and up. Then again come from a family that always like to document stuff with pics and videos way before all these smart phones folks. Used to go all concerts and record at least on audio. Sneak in recorders and stuff...
“Just think about what he was doing in high school and what you were doing?” Thinking about it. Had a fast food job. Fast forward some time later. I’m glad I had a fast food job. Perspective.
None of these drug kingpins invest in anything or stash their money anywhere, that's what needs to be done before buying any flashy luxury items especially in that kind of work.
@@YankeeWoodcraft boy George wasn't a straight killer like Pistol Pete but he did kill one guy who ripped him off when he was making a deal with the Asians. Thats the only murder I know that George commit. But George was violent and I would beat the ish outta his girlfriend to a bloody pulp.
I met him several times in the CITY OF NORTH NEWARK, NJ. HE WAS A MAYOR KEY PLAYER TEAM UP WITH , ANOTHER HUSTLER. FROM NORTH NEWARK, NJ. MISAEL CORDERRO. AKA- MISA FROM HALACK STREET. NORTH NEWARK, NJ. HEFTY TRASH BAG'S FULL OF MONEY, THAT'S HOW INSANE THE CASH FLOW WAS. I'm Pacheco from 7th PROJECTS NORTH NEWARK, NJ.
That was the 80's cops and Fed's did what they wanted. Just look at what they did to those innocent kids from Harlem the Central Park Kids that was even worse.
Shout out to Morris High School.. George was in a few of my classes. I remember in gym when he claimed he was going to be big in the game. Random Family is a book he's in for a short period.
No run is worth forever! That’s what they giving out. He was young. I never met ngas that got millions on the streets and had 30 cars and ran wit 100 ngas that didn’t get popped. I remember old cats sitting on the stoop with the mouth shut watching cats fly through the block with the top down. “What you thinking bout pop?” “We talking bets on how long that crew gonna last.” They was right 100% of the time. Why? Cause they still had the paper from back in the day. They knew how it worked and what it took. Old Bronx cats who was under the radar slangin heavy. Youth and street fame don’t mix.
I was born in the 60s, in Fordham hospital the Bronx. I like to see him, and others out. So, he can play the second part, and help clean New York City up. (Puerto Rican's broke the Ice in New York City, since late 1800s.) We open the doors for other Spanish races. Easy ride. Lucky them!
@@raymonbristol9628He’s talking about Puerto Ricans opening the doors for other Hispanics. Us Black ppl were already here & have nothing to do with this convo..stay on topic.
Alpo was Puerto Rican an could speak Spanish as good as any Spanish speaker, an I heard a interview from alpo he knew of George but never did any business with him
I did 3 years in da Feds and I’m from Brooklyn never met him in the can always heard about him and how much a great he is and such a heart gold type a nigga buy the whole NY Car commissary and sneakers
Firstly, the word BOY, is appropriate. A 17 year old is still a child. Their brain is still developing. How many teens you know don’t make mistakes and do dumb shit? It’s no excuse to be a killer, at all, but as far as dealing is concerned, it was survival. Opportunities for young men of color in those times were next to zero, especially if you’re in a group home. Secondly, they def used him as a fall guy. Him and many others like him. The guns and drugs are not made in the hood, nor are they distributed into the hood by kids. Many other adults are culpable. Some work for the government. Lastly, 2 years is a blink of an eye.
If was him, I would've moved quiet. No flashy sht, even present day it is the flashy sht that helps people doing well go down - especially because of social media.
The crazy thing is like they say history repeats it's self and every big time guy who wanted to be flashy show boat got popped from the 60s.60s.on down all the way to bmf lol the blue print been there fir yrs yet they continue to cluck out
Legend 🤔 For selling drug's ? Having a short run ? Ruining the community he resided in for self preservation ? Losing all the money he made ? Spending half his life in a 6 by 12 with a population filled with other men ? Legend huh...
Don’t understand what’s the debate about he had people killed his team told the feds everything that’s it it’s a wrap 😮he could have got the death penalty for these crimes
He didn't say he had beef with boy George ,he said boy George pressd him and told him he was going to kill his family and Joe said he cried and ask George not to kill his family. He kept it real to me
Right, the exact words that Joe used was that he had a "Run-In" with Boy George that could be one occurrance.

Quit hating homey you don't know the game. Exotic means just that.
@@Kevin-so7sp Not hating, but cmon who really wants to sit on some ostrich ball skin? Lol
He who has such little imagination
A 2 year run, compared to the time he got sucks.⚖️
He caught a body and put a hit on 5 more. Meaning connected to SIX homicides
That's crazy!!
Dope is the harshest drug. Breaks families. Creates Monsters out of ordinary people, begets violence and disorder and generally destroys communities.
Since that's all he ever knew, he would attempt to recreate that reality to his benefit wherever he is unleashed.
I think this is the 3rd Boy George video that you've made. It's just as good as the other ones. But why the repeated interest?
I got feedback to simply make a full episode instead of the old part#1 and part#2 which are unevenly watched.
@@BigCityCrimeTV Fair enough fam. I still watched and liked the video. I was just curious. Actually, I've watched all of your videos at least twice by now. Thanks for the great content.
Salute. and much thanks
Boy George should be released asap‼️💯 Cop killers are sent home on the regular in NY‼️💯
Came here like Boy George, The "Do You Really Wanna Hurt Me Guy...?" Nah, no way... lol 😂
Boy George was OBSESSION.
Free the Puerto Rican james bond ...Bronx legend ... He in the feds but he ain't on NY he was actually running with the G27s then they got at him poked him up and no NY dude helped him so now he running with the Surenos. ... He stood tall never folded been down a long time... Let that man go he was just a kid ..
Why was NEW YORK suppose to hold him down when he wasn’t in the New York car? And he was dealing with them red dragons like them D.C boys do..
He in Florence supermax now
@@MrWARBUCKS24 word what happened this time around!
@@moe3496 Just curious who are the red dragons. Why is it that NYC didn't look out for him being a major guy from the Bronx.
From the 1980s Bronx hiring big daddy kane to running with the surenos in 2023. ..Wtf?? Life is crazy
Ain't that crazy for someone to have that much money..that many new luxury cars..that many properties...but only 2 pictures of yourself in a lifetime. 😂
Not in those days fam
@@billymercedes-le8pl I hear you, I'm 6 years younger than Boy George. But, I got pics from 15 days old and up. Video of my baptism at less than 1 year old and video of me at 10 years and up. Then again come from a family that always like to document stuff with pics and videos way before all these smart phones folks. Used to go all concerts and record at least on audio. Sneak in recorders and stuff...
There are pictures, we just don't see them. That's actually refreshing.
“Just think about what he was doing in high school and what you were doing?”
Thinking about it. Had a fast food job. Fast forward some time later.
I’m glad I had a fast food job. Perspective.
None of these drug kingpins invest in anything or stash their money anywhere, that's what needs to be done before buying any flashy luxury items especially in that kind of work.
One thing I like about this guy is there’s no pics of him with money and cars
That's because there was no social media
@@fitness_wit_princeit's not a matter of social media.
This should be a movie
Why TF do you reference Mike Tyson’s fight in this video? That’s so strange and random lol
Yeah that's was random as hell i thought atleast he was gon be at the fight or something
Who here after hearing Fat Joe 🧢’n
You know it…Hahaa
Me 😂😂😂😂
🙋🏾♂️
I’m from the Bronx a few block from where they use to run.. legendary stories of what they did
I read about him in the book random family!!! I always wondered “ what he looked like “ as I read and constantly re-read the book
Wow. I'm in that first photo. I had to be 2 or 3 years old!
Just like Pistol Pete.
Both went to prison around the same age, around 20 and were given life.
Overcharged because he was too big in the game.
@@YankeeWoodcraft neither were that big. Pistol Pete did kill about 6 people in total.
@@kevindelgado7252 George didn't hit anybody though.
@@YankeeWoodcraft he had 6 people hit... that's gotta count for something
@@YankeeWoodcraft boy George wasn't a straight killer like Pistol Pete but he did kill one guy who ripped him off when he was making a deal with the Asians. Thats the only murder I know that George commit. But George was violent and I would beat the ish outta his girlfriend to a bloody pulp.
I met him several times in the CITY OF NORTH NEWARK, NJ. HE WAS A MAYOR KEY PLAYER TEAM UP WITH , ANOTHER HUSTLER. FROM NORTH NEWARK, NJ. MISAEL CORDERRO. AKA- MISA FROM HALACK STREET. NORTH NEWARK, NJ. HEFTY TRASH BAG'S FULL OF MONEY, THAT'S HOW INSANE THE CASH FLOW WAS. I'm Pacheco from 7th PROJECTS NORTH NEWARK, NJ.
That was the 80's cops and Fed's did what they wanted. Just look at what they did to those innocent kids from Harlem the Central Park Kids that was even worse.
No money like dope money
💯💯💯
Shout out to Morris High School.. George was in a few of my classes. I remember in gym when he claimed he was going to be big in the game. Random Family is a book he's in for a short period.
Shout out to Morris HS BX Ny....Across from Forrest Projects
My fav book!
🧢
You goofy. If you was around in the BX back then chances are you knew these folk by some means. Goofy ahh kid @artieslang1333
@@artieslang1333 nope. He still in the FEDs and highly respected.
I’m from the Bronx and never heard of him good stuff.
It's lovely making money, but it's the other side of drug dealing, and that's when you get caught
That’s the fucked up part when everything is going good and everybody getting money you out there partying then the feds come in and it’s game over.
Life for 2 years is beyond extreme
No run is worth forever! That’s what they giving out.
He was young.
I never met ngas that got millions on the streets and had 30 cars and ran wit 100 ngas that didn’t get popped.
I remember old cats sitting on the stoop with the mouth shut watching cats fly through the block with the top down.
“What you thinking bout pop?”
“We talking bets on how long that crew gonna last.”
They was right 100% of the time.
Why?
Cause they still had the paper from back in the day.
They knew how it worked and what it took.
Old Bronx cats who was under the radar slangin heavy.
Youth and street fame don’t mix.
I remember when I was 7 years old seeing him driving a Lamborghini on courtlandt Avenue
I was born in the 60s, in Fordham hospital the Bronx. I like to see him, and others out. So, he can play the second part, and help clean New York City up. (Puerto Rican's broke the Ice in New York City, since late 1800s.) We open the doors for other Spanish races. Easy ride. Lucky them!
Black races too
glorifying a drug dealer is insane.
@@philly1559 he’s not a drug dealer . He’s a drug king pin .
@@raymonbristol9628He’s talking about Puerto Ricans opening the doors for other Hispanics. Us Black ppl were already here & have nothing to do with this convo..stay on topic.
I wonder if he ever came across Alpo? I heard Alpo was afro Puerto Rican and could speak spanish.
He was not
@@puddincup9879 Po mom and sister was Puerto Rican. He spoke fluent Spanish.
@@LesterWallace_ Alpo was Puerto Rican too
@@puddincup9879he was Puerto Rican an yes he could speak Spanish as good a any Spanish speaker
Alpo was Puerto Rican an could speak Spanish as good as any Spanish speaker, an I heard a interview from alpo he knew of George but never did any business with him
Bro when it’s that short time at the top is it worth it
Thank you!!
Was that big 80s Newark nj bust a part of riveras ppl too or were they just linked to the Torres gang in Puerto Rico?
He got life, he didn’t make it.
In the dark world of a dealer, you will screw up and perhaps let your ego ruin your life for just showing off.
I did 3 years in da Feds and I’m from Brooklyn never met him in the can always heard about him and how much a great he is and such a heart gold type a nigga buy the whole NY Car commissary and sneakers
You can only spend so much on commissary how he pull that off?
"To get attention from girls and federal agents..." Ok. Nice line.
Lol from the girls and federal agents... something to think about
Love your stories!
Much thanks
I can’t wait til 50 do this series
Shits so crazy.
I was slanging lots of weed back in the early 2010’s & bought 1/2 bmw’s thinking I was really balling. Then I watch this 😂
He could've been a CEO. of any company .. I guess you could say crime don't pay when it's all said and done 😢
This would make a great movie !
Mike Tyson put me on him!!
It’s time to make a movie about him.
Nobody made it.
first time seeing the pic of him wearing that shearling.i thought i seen all his pics .
Firstly, the word BOY, is appropriate. A 17 year old is still a child. Their brain is still developing. How many teens you know don’t make mistakes and do dumb shit? It’s no excuse to be a killer, at all, but as far as dealing is concerned, it was survival. Opportunities for young men of color in those times were next to zero, especially if you’re in a group home. Secondly, they def used him as a fall guy. Him and many others like him. The guns and drugs are not made in the hood, nor are they distributed into the hood by kids. Many other adults are culpable. Some work for the government. Lastly, 2 years is a blink of an eye.
Bottom line,,,, he knew right from wrong, and he made the decision, there are no excuses for him, period!
@@roadrunner381 reading is fundamental
For 24 months of grime he got life. He needed nino brown’s lawyer.
If was him, I would've moved quiet. No flashy sht, even present day it is the flashy sht that helps people doing well go down - especially because of social media.
Why do we act like every drug dealer story isn’t exactly the same lol
2 years wow, his life in prison.. he's telling the story in prison.
Cautionary tale
His run was too short. The most they ever talk about him is like 15 mins.
Miss the 80s
Dude looks like Hynief, shout out to Money Island, Shadyville
It's king pins in South West philly.i would love those stories.ty
The crazy thing is like they say history repeats it's self and every big time guy who wanted to be flashy show boat got popped from the 60s.60s.on down all the way to bmf lol the blue print been there fir yrs yet they continue to cluck out
What month was George born in 1968
Damn his hitman was efficient
You just can’t fix stupid 😂😂😂😂😂😂 😢
He/she “DIDNT MAKE IT” 😂 classic
😁
Lmaooo 😂
Boy George only had a 2 year run damn 🤦🏽♂️ George a real one tho he was getting snitches gone 😂😂😂😂😂
Let me get ten bundles of obsession
Blue thunder and sledge hammer lol
New to the channel good video King!!
Salute
Free Boy George. Time Served
They should let the legend go, he did his time.
BX 🙏
too much time
Do you think the family of his victims feel he should be released.
He would have been out if he hadn’t stabbed all those people in federal prison.
Legend 🤔
For selling drug's ?
Having a short run ?
Ruining the community he resided in for self preservation ?
Losing all the money he made ?
Spending half his life in a 6 by 12 with a population filled with other men ?
Legend huh...
I've never heard of this guy, but a Fat Joe interview got me to look this guy up! Interesting story!
Don’t understand what’s the debate about he had people killed his team told the feds everything that’s it it’s a wrap 😮he could have got the death penalty for these crimes
This the same Boy George that’s cool w/ Tyson?
You can trust a soul the crew snitched on him … smh
can't*
U fine as hell u from the bronx
