Michael was chris’ protege and he went to Chris for help not Marlo. Marlo didn’t really have much interaction with Michael it was Chris that bonded with him and took him under his wing
He definitely interacted with Marlo a couple times.. He directly went too Marlo when he wanted his brother father killed off Marlo also got him his own apartment but yes he definitely had a more closer bond with Chris
@@DIRTYSOUTHSHINOBI I know he interacted with Marlo but not much is what I’m saying and he asked Chris to kill bugs dad not Marlo and when he couldn’t tell him y it was Chris that understood what happened
A king needs two things to stay a king. Fear and respect. Marlo is what happens when you only have one of those things. Fierce while in power but soon forgotten when he gets taken off the board. Fear is great but if no one has any respect for you all you have is a bunch of scared subordinates waiting for you to fall
It was Avon coming at Marlo's corners not the other way round. Marlo already had a big bit of Westside but after the towers came down Avon lost a lot of territory so tried taking from Marlo
i was listening to this at work last week Friday so im not about to listen to this again....said no one ever...if you reupload all those old videos im taking in every single one...again...
Are you doing all your videos. Great series. I especially enjoy how it relates to HR. Wish you would do other series. Succession, Billions, ect. Thanks so much.
I remember a funny scene in the show when him and the guy he was beefin’ with were shooting at an assembling of the infected and all of a sudden they started shooting at each other.
@@LionsandLegions I have to check that out. I didn’t even know he did a cop role. I’m so used to him being a gangster. It would be weird to him as a cop.
Vinson was never Marlo's Equal though, when he was among his equals, not of them went against him or criticized him for the way he did things. Not Stringer, not Prop Joe or even their Lieutenants like Cheese (cause he liked it) or Slim (cause he disagreed with it but bided his time). No one else in the Co-Op even said anything despite the fact at the time they had the "protection" of the Co-Op while Prop Joe was the Head. If Prop Joe had been harder on Marlo and more importantly if Stringer had sided fully with Marlo and did the same, attacking Marlo from another angle at the same time that Avon hit him in the streets, then he would have been nipped in the bud much faster. Hell, Stringer could have hired Omar to take Marlo out like he tried to do with Brother, or Avon could have swallowed his pride and went to Omar himself but well we saw what happened.
I think slim Charles was king of the streets.. he played from every position and sat back until it was his time 💯 he made it thru every war/conflict unaffected and was always inviting of change 💯
Michael had seen the worst in humanity at an early age (recall his stepdad) and realized quick nothing is free. .. he became toughened by it and so what did he care about the next drug dealer in rotation on the streets of Bmore stepping lol that’s why he didn’t back down. Marlo’s predatory ass just recognized that steel and wanted to sharpen it (for his benefit of course) that’s all lol

dude, you are WAY off. Marlo is not weak or confused but the hardest, smartest player in the game. Michael didn’t sense any “projection” in Marlo because there wasn’t any. Marl9 recognized that Michael was principled and understood a man in the street game takes favors from no one, there’s ALWAYS a string attached. Marlo recognizes talent and brings him in. Snoop and Chris are loyal, able soldiers more dedicated and useful to Marlo than any other boss had. Prop Joe and Avon were both betrayed by their lieutenants while Marlo’s did their bids as he walked. Marlo Stansfield is the one and quite possibly the future King Of The Baltimore Drug Game.
@@Connect200 if the Co Op coulda the Co Op woulda. Marlo would have an army and back in control before they knew what hit them. dictators always catch alliances flat footed.
Omar really brought down specific players and operations in Marlo s activites. Hadnt Omar pulled da spiderman shit, and crewed up with sum more mexican muscle, Omar clip Marlo in a week, and everyone in between. Michael was utterly scared by a limping Omar, outsmarting 5 ninjas at daylight. That scene speaks volumes on how true it was when Omar told Marlo at the card game, he would find his ppl easier than they could find theirs.
Marlo was a king without a country and all his “hitters” were contract k!llers w the exception of snoop and of course Partlow, which meant their loyalty came w a price. Avon had a name, legacy and the love/fear of his country (Bmore)which is why he remained king although he no longer wore the crown.
PROP JOE WAS TOO SMART FOR HIS OWN GOOD …. IN SEASON 3 INSTEAD OF GOING AGAINST AVON FOR GOING TO WAR AGAINST MARLO HE SHOULD HAVE JOINED THE FREY WITH HIS ARMY TO NIP MARLO IN THE BUD , HE COULDNT HAVE READ THE BOOK 📕 THE PRINCE 👑 💯🤞🏿
Avon was not the king… only reason Marlo had to pay Avon the 100,000 dollars was because surrogate knew Avon not Marlo and since them both being from west Baltimore surrogate figured Avon would know him so he sent Avon to talk to him… surrogate is not about to do business with someone he doesn’t know.. so fast forwarding Avon vouched for Marlo but it’s going to cost you to meet the plug that’s just how the game is played and honestly Avon should have charged Marlo more than that…you have a kool page but some of your breakdown is not on point…

Marlo is dark triad that is why he fell off he was a wannabe he bailed when he got busted at least Avon went back to business after he got busted and later released
Marlo(Jamie Hector) was a student at the JHS where I work. He's a legend there.
His name IS his name
Michael was chris’ protege and he went to Chris for help not Marlo. Marlo didn’t really have much interaction with Michael it was Chris that bonded with him and took him under his wing

@@DIRTYSOUTHSHINOBI he only went to Marlo to find Chris homie you gotta look at the wire again
Marlo even referred to Michael as chris' pup when he ordered the hit on bodie.
@@kingjayrico3926 yeah when he showed up, he says that he was looking for Chris.
This is a top 10 channel for analysis
If you take this and A Man's World and combine the analysis, you don't even need the other 8 in that to 10
I love that everybody’s ambition was the first domino to their downfall
Ambition is important, UNTIL it gets away from you.
What downfall? He won
@@jeremiahsymonette4781 Marlo didn’t win. He never got the one thing he wanted. For his name to be immortal like Omar
@@jeremiahsymonette4781no he didn't slim Charles did 😊
Prop Joe's downfall had nothing to do with ambition. And Slim Charles was the least ambitious dude to come up.
Marlo represented the game as a whole…you cant civilize the uncivilized…I.E. The Co-Op and Hamsterdam
A king needs two things to stay a king. Fear and respect. Marlo is what happens when you only have one of those things. Fierce while in power but soon forgotten when he gets taken off the board. Fear is great but if no one has any respect for you all you have is a bunch of scared subordinates waiting for you to fall
Word, Avon was locked up but was still respected in and out the pen, so his name still ran the streets
No respect and honor does if they fear you they will eventually revolt and kill you. Avon was respectful respected and honored not feared
The King Stay the King ‼️‼️‼️
That be slim Charles 😊
It was Avon coming at Marlo's corners not the other way round. Marlo already had a big bit of Westside but after the towers came down Avon lost a lot of territory so tried taking from Marlo
1:25 Actually Avon attacked Marlo first with the two guys that didn’t wait for Slim and Cutty
i was listening to this at work last week Friday so im not about to listen to this again....said no one ever...if you reupload all those old videos im taking in every single one...again...
Good thing you reuploaded this. Great takes and you got a sub
Are you doing all your videos. Great series. I especially enjoy how it relates to HR. Wish you would do other series. Succession, Billions, ect. Thanks so much.
😊
A masterpiece. Breaking down the pro’s and con’s of Marlo.
This is the most interesting take on the character I've ever heard 👍👍
Even when you win you can still lose
AVON IS THE KING 👑 THE KING 👑 STAYS THE KING 👑 💯🤞🏿
Great videos bro!!! Thanks!
Jamie Hector (the guy that played Marlo Stanfield) was in the horror series “The Strain”.
He did a great job.
/Excellent analysis btw
I remember a funny scene in the show when him and the guy he was beefin’ with were shooting at an assembling of the infected and all of a sudden they started shooting at each other.
@@JoeDoe1
Remember when he tried to hustle the Master? I was hoping he was going to say “One more thing the price of blood goin’ up…”
How is he in Bosch? I heard that was a good show
@@LionsandLegions
I have to check that out. I didn’t even know he did a cop role. I’m so used to him being a gangster.
It would be weird to him as a cop.
@@muaddib989 If you think that's weird, the guy that played Chris Partlow had a role in an episode of Law and Order as a Catholic Priest LOL
I remember this when it first came out
My name…is not my name…
I’m not even Greek
Vinson in Season 3 did challenge him, but Marlo just skated past his questions and concerns.
Vinson was never Marlo's Equal though, when he was among his equals, not of them went against him or criticized him for the way he did things. Not Stringer, not Prop Joe or even their Lieutenants like Cheese (cause he liked it) or Slim (cause he disagreed with it but bided his time). No one else in the Co-Op even said anything despite the fact at the time they had the "protection" of the Co-Op while Prop Joe was the Head.

Hell, Stringer could have hired Omar to take Marlo out like he tried to do with Brother, or Avon could have swallowed his pride and went to Omar himself but well we saw what happened.
@@maylabrown4584 You’re correct. He’s not because Vinson stepped out of the game for a more sideline role. He still did drop those gems on him though.
@@maylabrown4584 Vinson role was more specialized. He was more of an advisor/banker to Marlo--similar role Butchie had with Omar.
@@sfn7219 Yup 👍
Marlo grew on me. He is my favourite villain
Prop Joe should have never put Omar on Marlo card game 😂
So many characters that would be great content from breaking bad and game of thrones
I would love to see you do character breakdowns of the cast of Snowfall
I think slim Charles was king of the streets.. he played from every position and sat back until it was his time 💯 he made it thru every war/conflict unaffected and was always inviting of change 💯
THEY WERENT IN PRISON AFTER THEY WERE ARRESTED THEY WERE IN CITY OR COUNTY JAIL I HAVE BEEN TO BOTH AS WELL AS REAL PRISON IN THE PAST 💯🤞🏿
definitely a bigger fish in small, SMALL pond. Marlo ran the game for a bit, but he gained no respect along the way which led to him being forgotten
Michael had seen the worst in humanity at an early age (recall his stepdad) and realized quick nothing is free. .. he became toughened by it and so what did he care about the next drug dealer in rotation on the streets of Bmore stepping lol that’s why he didn’t back down.
Marlo’s predatory ass just recognized that steel and wanted to sharpen it (for his benefit of course) that’s all lol
Marlo got his hands dirty though. He killed Devon. And when ever he kills, two to the chest and one in the mouth
Vincent asked the questions but didn't have the power to challenge him
Bodee didn't get beat down his crew did
What you shoulf do if you have a boss like marlo .... Step 1 wait for chris and snoop to give you your termination papers 😅
No one fucks with me now
Marlo saw himself in Michael. Micheal never had any choice but to stand and fight
18:56 TO 19:09 [PEOPLE NEED TO PROVE THEiR CHARACTER BEFORE YOU GiVE THEM YOUR TRUST] HOW OFTEN DOEZ THAT HAPPEN ?

How would he get the coop back?
Marlo is done. If he attempts to come back Co Op will have him wacked. Marlo price gaugled them on the brick.
@@magicmoonmonkeHe won't dude is trolling.
@@Connect200 if the Co Op coulda the Co Op woulda. Marlo would have an army and back in control before they knew what hit them. dictators always catch alliances flat footed.
Exactly. Marlo is like the amazon of the drug game. For whatever reason the narrator is completely off and trying to duscredit him
Bringing Omar out of retirement was one of Marlos many downfalls
Omar really brought down specific players and operations in Marlo s activites. Hadnt Omar pulled da spiderman shit, and crewed up with sum more mexican muscle, Omar clip Marlo in a week, and everyone in between. Michael was utterly scared by a limping Omar, outsmarting 5 ninjas at daylight.

Scarface sounds about the same as marlo
Paper crown? Marlo change the game and dos it his his way
There is absolutely no way Marlo could take out Chris.
But why would Chris do his bidding if that's the case?
@@paul-dq6lkexactly, and any others excuse is just personal bias
Marlo was a king without a country and all his “hitters” were contract k!llers w the exception of snoop and of course Partlow, which meant their loyalty came w a price.

Not true at all

Why so much hate towards Marlo?
And Marlo walked away alive and with the money and free
A true narcissit
He's a psychopath not just a narcissist
I don't agree with your assessment of Marlo, he was willing to get his hands dirty.
Kenard or Bro. Mouzon got Omar?
Kenard killed him
Kedarn* not Kenard @@LionsandLegions

Tf is this Paulie Walnuts dialect
Marlo is dark triad that is why he fell off he was a wannabe he bailed when he got busted at least Avon went back to business after he got busted and later released
