CRIPS & BLOODS - MADE IN AMERICA by STACY PERALTA

0 comments








Like i said, I cover all aspects of the city. Shoes, clubs, fast cars, fashion and music are a big part of our lifestyle and contribution to the world, but we are also a major influence in the gang culture. It may not be the best lifestyle, but it is something we heavily contributed to mainstream culture as it has influenced music, fashion and slang across the nation and even the world. So I was surfing HypeBeast the other day and saw some of those images and realized, damn I grew up over there, so of course I took interest in finding out more:
Stacy Peralta known for his involvement in the skate culture and directorial involvement for Dogtown & Z-Boys delves into Los Angeles gang culture to document it. Baron Davis (of the Clippers) and Steve Luczo handle production while Forest Whitaker takes the narrative duties to bring you a gritty look into lifestyle and its impact. Showing between February 6-12 at the Laemmle's Sunset 5 in Hollywood and a couple dates in NY this is worth going to check out. For more info go to www.MadeInAmericaTheMovie.com

In the words of 2 Pac, he's the last person that was attacked just off the Las Vegas Strip while accompanying Mr. Knight...anyways, Suge was arrested today for assault then released on bail not too long ago.  But going back to court for his charges is where the problems may arise...read more here.

Jay Rock - Blood Walk '08

0 comments
Jay Rock outta WATTS gives an ode to his side of the color bar.  I mean there was Crip Walk in '98 by Kurupt so it's only right to let the other side represent as well.  This is not posted to glorify gangbanging or offend any other gangbangers.  But this is L.A. culture and Jay Rock represents west coast hip hop.
