Og's are the best story tellers u get to see from there perspective I love it

Squab is the INDIGENOUS word for fight.

Mr. Barry White🎤🎼🎤 was a Businessmen....RESPECT!
Braddah Bu that’s true people in that area still remember

That skin is beautiful
Good LA . Earlier gang History powerful message from a Good Brother.
Shout out to the tilted brim...👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾...sheeeeesh!!! That the real MVP of this interview!!!!!
Og got some knowledge I'm young but I'm listening
The way he rocked that Fedora is straight OG! Never seen one worn to the side like that! 💪
Going back over these older interviews with the first generations and the ones above them like OG Shorty RIP... Definitely missing the older men in my life and our society in general. Even though we're grown and men and leaders and providers...i miss the guidance of our elders. Now we are them lets keep it going while we are alive. Pass on good knowledge and guidance to young people 5-2-24 Long Beach, California
My dad [Triple OG/SLEEPY] is from South Park [ businessmen]
So My daddy once saved 5 crackheads from a burning building by his self now what 🤨
My dad had 5 degrees..now what?
Hey Nicky!! First of all I want to say, your a perfect example of what black is beautiful signifies, you are so pretty. Nicky, I wonder if your dad knew Joe rock head. I saw km videos on him and he was bad dude coming up. I'm glad he changed his way of thinking and now helps trouble youth all across the U.S. Not just in Compton and in the state of California.
What up Nikki
Sleepy from TTP?
It's still gladiators around today. They all be on their motor bikes riding around the 50'z between Vernon and Slauson down Hoover street with their 54th st Gladiator hats on. And uncle Johnny Lee is still living too who was from Gladiators and later became a 52 Hoover.
All gladiators came off westside
@@pauljenkins4029 Where u get that from ?
I meant to say tookie came from the alkoupouns
That's what's up...real LA history 💯
My uncle John willie would wear his hat EXACTLY like that!! I never understood how he kept it on! Now that I’m older I get it.
Kev Mac Your videos are the truth! A Zip Gun!!! They ain't know but I do!!!
A guy by the name of Floyd was the man from Gladiators. The Slauson I talked to said that Floyd would get down anywhere, anytime.
Floyd could slang them thangs.
Freddie Brooks
@@maurice5338 I don't know who that is.
That's pretty Brooks from gladiators bugsy chili from gladiators looking from gladiators bless the bird from gladiators Don Doherty from gladiators Scott from gladiators rags from gladiators Tam from gladiators thin Man from gladiator kid from gladiators those are the glasses that was on 54th and Vermont fighting the slauson in the river rouses the bartenders glad it is a businessman for allies
Some of the names got messed up the names were loogie Lester bird Freddy Brooks thin Man tam Yogi baby talk so many I can't remember all the name of all I will kill up this whole page but those are the soldiers that stood on 54th in Vermont representing the gladiators in the del Vikings
Big chili
shorty and squirrel was two of the coldest interviews ever on the culture. I could listen to them cats talk for hours.
I appreciate the knowledge cuz this is real history!!!!
I hope that young people get the advice that these wise men are giving. Black people need to come together man!...Don't wait until your old to realize this!
His skin is immaculate and beautiful
I hate this generation.
This dude a G forreal. The hat cocked like the Panthers.
If Shorty was still alive to this day he’d be so disgusted with how much killing is goin on today
OG SHORTY WOW !! Priceless History told Raw and uncut
Rite of passage, ushered into manhood extremely articulate and respectful
Those eyes have been through and seen alot, respect to the og
This guy aint no joke
I love this shit right here...even got the old grill in the background 💯💯💯
A my uncle was a baby Gladiator name Tam,,rest in peace uncle june
Rest in peace to this King! Man he spoke the real but in a cool collect way. Black gangs especially crip in fighting is the real reason and responsible for most killings in LA county. Crip in fighting set the tone for gang wars as we know it. 83/Hoovers vs 60s may be the most notorious war in La gang history! You have some notoriety of Blood vs crip wars such as IFG vs 60s/90s/Raymond/100s. You have DLB vs Hoovers/Raymonds/ etc.. 118 ECC vs Athens park, bounty hunter vs Grape, ect...etc.. but none of these beefs i mention seem to have that dark body county as much as crip on crip. Not to mention cars dont even mean total unity, giving now 40s nhc warring with 60s nhc! I mean even grapes fight way more crips than bloods they fight PJays crip, ECC, Fudgetowns, Ten Line GC, just to name a few...now bacc to the hoovers whos only real blood beef was with DLBs and some brims. Other than that hoovers was going at anything NHC! Shit 102 raymonds and 92 NHC (Legends) are the only true Inglewood crips oh and Tongans. MAD Ass Gangstas came much later and they kind of in Lennox if yiu ask me. But they claim The wood. But raymonds and legends both 2x/NHC was going hard at eachother! Despite being a minority in the wood! Shit on the east side: Coastas, Broadways, Avalon, Mains, 4 pacc, 97/87 GC and hoovers....all of them go at eachother heavy one way or another! Not to mention Long Beach is a Crip City which means all the wars there are crip on crip by default! And Compton??? Man forget about it! Santana vs South Side is the CPT version of 60s and 83! To put it in perspective like this makes me wonder if its some conspiracy where unknown outside entities create and perpetuate these wars. Like i wouldn't put it pass, CIA special Operations, FBI, NSA, one of these intel agencies, commite murders on both sides to get a war going, in order to crush any idea of unity or peace treaties.
Mike sixhunna I grew up in Watts , and all of this is dangerous and makes no sense.
The pjays and bounty hunters are linked up against grape
@@TheDevineFempressyou aren't from Watts .
been banging Hoovers since 13 and I learned more from this video than I did from the big homies that put me on Gotta love the OOG's
Frfr 100 interview
OOOG
Rest Easy OG 🙏🏽
Everyone has a story. I enjoy 'em all. Shorty is a good speaker.
My Parents Were from Outlaws back in the 1960's.
I love these 3x OGs
DAMMMMN HE PASSED🙏🙏🙏 R I P that was another good 1 and he mentioned BIRD! just watched the bird joint! A yo kev, you like Paul Pierce (THE TRUTH) JERSEY
From Texas did 10 years in prison here. Glad to see some real Gs to speak and clarify on day ones.
Had go watch this again!!! The beginning
I love this interview
They had del Vikings in Chicago too
Shorty! Good one.
Yo when you watch the videos of the Black Spades from the Bronx ...same thing...and they breakdown the signs too! Aka Bows and Arrows
Good damn video, man. I enjoy the gang history from the original fellows. please bring more of this.
" O.G SHORTY 💯PROOF FROM DA ROOT 2 DA ROOF" (GLADIATOR)
Thats crazy that chicago back in the day we had a gang called MIGHTY DEL VIKINGS on the low end of chicago...we have more in common as a people than we know
Unite Black People!!! #weallwegot
im with you brother
Thats right homie. Whites and Mexicans dont want us to be united
The biggest ennemy of the black community is the blacks, stop finding excuses
We need to unite everywhere.✊
Aint happening we hate each other too much im from st.louis . It gets real
The Outlaws Kev Mac We Need More Information On Them
CERTIFIED
I’m from Carson me and friends wore Levi’s and white sweatshirts and roller skate at skate land back in the day our house parties were legendary they did get shot up occasionally but surprisingly we still went to them and had a good time.70-80’s
London locked in king Kev!!!! ✊🏾👊🏾
Westcoast California Homie much love and respect 🙏🏿 Kev Mac Sincerely thank you
Skate Land wasn’t around then,it was the bowling alley and Dutos on Central and The English Square in Compton across from Wilson Park
Where is Shorty now? I hope he's still around and doing well...
it said he died in 2004.....
thank you for giving the OGS a platform. and let the real be known.
hopefully this will inspire ppl to think more critically and give some insight to these younger cats on the hows and whys gang culture was formed. TO PROTECT and GET MONEY for the community. 🙏
Nothing like that now hah!
Every time I here og talk I think of my uncle right by the girls boys club
Brims n Hoovers were once 1?.......Gladiators n Buisnessmen
Man got history.
PAY ATTENTION!!!
Schools in session...
A real black soldier, here to teach and mold ya!
Aye kev mac are their any of your interviews where one of the older cats speak on keistone from 60s and how he died from the 60s perspective. ive always been interested in hearing it from the other side
You know he a certified OG if he drinkin colt 45
He aint lying. His nose has been broke. A FEW times. Clearly! And he aint playing with that fedora either. Gone head OG! Strange as this sounds, I have a feeling that _OG Shorty_ was a handsome brutha in his prime.
9:10- y'all all need to meet up at the park with the og's need to lead again
I wish we get back to those hands and keep it pushing but it’s 2022 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yo Kev Mac, you need to interviews like this.
I wonder how early/original Crips, Bloods, Supreme Gangstas (now Gangsta Disciples), Black Gangstas, Black P Stones & Vice Lords would have interacted with each other if they all had a sanctioned meeting in the 1960s???
I wish gangs stayed like this. Young men are gonna get into trouble, it's their nature, but I'd much rather see young men beating each other up at the park than shooting each other up. Drugs really turnt our community upside down
Facts💯
I think a fraternity should be created for the OG's
The Gladiators area was, Slauson south, expedition north, Normandy west to Broadway east, 54 was our sign. I new of shorty, I claimed my set THE GLADIATORS, only a few of us left, we started the Hoover Groovers, there are no reason for clubs today, I'm only 73 years young, We fought, didn't shoot, unless you had a zip gun I'm taking about 1963 in Los Angeles
@@OnDubbz summer of 1958
What gang was Inglewood back then ?
@@playboi1872 none it was a all white city in the 50's and 60's
love you og
Yessirrrr businessmen rest up my uncle butch from businessmen miss u unc
Bro a real one 💯💯💯😎
wondering if TREE TOP from Slausons started the Treetops off rosecrans...
TTP got its name because the names of the streets over there are the names of actual trees… spruce, maple, cedar, elm, etc… same way FTP (across from them) got their name, from the streets in their hood that are named after actual fruit. Cherry, peach, plum, etc..
I remember the gambling spot was on 59th and hooper my father used to gamble in their all the time back in the day him and my godfather kino .
Go down to Memphis tn. And do a video about their earlier gangs.
“They was No Joke!”
That zip gun tho
It could kill you. Bullet that travels like a .22 caliber in the zip gun. Mosquitos guns and china ball guns used the same principles but not deadly to humans. The old G's much more creative than the younger generations more ethical to.
Just imagine.... wow creating your own
Why you didn't mention jimel Barnes cuz?
If you could walk around wearing a leather jacket...mine was a brown suede jacket...you were connected or known well on the block(s). Hats were being taken as regular from 69' on up.
There is a better way South Central. Represent for your hood, "Man-hood!"

Love your channel bro. Just found it and hooked.
i live right here on 59 and normandie
r.i.p
Should’ve ask what was the reason fighting the slausons?
who says gantsas dont get old !
I talked to a Slauson and he said Compton is nowhere near the top. That they [Slausons] used to whoop on Compton all the time. Now there were individuals who were tough, but Compton as a whole wasn't.
He said Watts had 5 projects and they didn't get along with each other (NG, JD, IC, Hacies, Palm something forgot).
So that made it easier to fight Watts.
Big Slausons like Chinaman had skirmishes with Watts.
Lil Slausons like Roach etc made into a war.
Baby Slausons like Bird turned it into a Holy War lol with Watts.
Watts had some tough dudes Like N.D. who lived and Breath Watts lol.
N.D. and Roach from Lil Slausons had three fights.
MrSilent Takeover
I'm going to interview the Slauson im talking about.
he told me a story about Shorty and fight that occured back in the 60's outside of a gym lol.
ComplexBlackness, you gonna record da interview and post it?
MrSilent Takeover Yup been wanting to do it for years now.
actually i do have some vids from 2015. Some funny stories and interesting ones.
Prison stories from the 60's early 70's etc.
ComplexBlackness we need those videos
Pause at 0:25
