When all the Latin folks were at war the Mozart park, hermosa park area, Logan square, was down and dirty in the early 90s. The devil side was wild, the northwest side Latino gangs cleaned up a lot since then. They’re more Belmont cragin now but the don’t bang outside no more, I don’t even know how they bang, o don’t see anybody hanging in their hoods no more.
They just pop pills get drunk and ride around in stolen cars or they moms car's and they bang or shoot at each other in traffic. But that's a good thing because alot of us would not be here right now if it was still like the 90s.
@@Essh500 you act like MFs didn't have heavy artillery in the 90s, they had mac 10s mac 11s, A-K 47s with drums,tech 9s with extended clips. Murder rate was way higher in the 90s, go sit down somewhere you don't know nothing.
props to west love for diggin this up......I was born in uptown in 79, alot of this is all too familiar man.... my pops left my mom w 4 kids in 87 and by the same time this was filmed, I was goin thru the same shit....became a peewee and by 92 93 I was out there bad, sellin rock and riding my bike on seguridad 🤟..... even tho I was a whiteboy northsider me and my boys would always hangout at the "motherland" of humboldt park...that narco w da bulls starter jacket was notorious back then from Shakespeare district.... because of my affiliation the east side of the park was always an entity to me, straight up "no go zone".... I had one homie I grew up with that was an insane campbell boy then he turned YLO C and was cool with the dude Gitano in this video..... they are both dead now sadly RIP Speedy RIP Gitano C🙏
I remember how crazy logan square was in the 90s i grew up by diversey and central park... Everyone was in the church parking lot by lawndale and wolfram
Yeah, a different time. In the 80s, we were right off of Fullerton and Lawndale. Then near Belmont and Cicero during the early 90s. Then up around Pulaski and Lawrence after that.
I grew up around these people and in that environment Gitano was shot in the head and killed , My wife’s uncle was A cobra and Gitano was his best friend
JR is a saint what the hell, this video is wild. He’s playing with frogs, playing with a bird, picks up a puppy “all JR can think about is gang banging”

Tell me you're just a corny kid online who has never been in the hood for real without telling me that. You're just another weird white kid even though you have a Hispanic name, you're still just another white boy... Fu*kin white boy.
we need a JR update !
What ever happened to J.R.? 🤔
Thank you again please keep up the good work. 🖤💙
I have a cousin whom now lives in the suburbs but she grew up on SE corner of Armitage/Albany and later on SW corner of Cortland/Kedzie.
Hella good work. Keep this stories alive brother 🙏
Wow this is dope. Is there more Logan or humboldt park footage coming anytime soon? I can’t seem to find anything from the 90s on UA-cam.

I think the cop at 8:13 was found guilty for racketeering with a gang
the interesting thing here is that she kept talking about his anger but wont realize that they get the anger from her.
I grew up around these people and in that environment Gitano was shot in the head and killed , My wife’s uncle was A cobra and Gitano was his best friend
When did that happen. I grew up on Mozart and Cortland and saw a lot of those guys go down till I moved. I’m glad I never joined none of those gangs.
This was originally broadcast in 1990.
I believe early 91 or late 90

Isn’t that guy Joey zaza from godfather 3
And Fat Tony from the Simpsons
Any update on little JR..hed be about 40 now...
And I lived with the guy in the ymca With the red shirt Julio his son Married my sister now divorced
always crazy to me that while enduring poverty they think its a good idea to add the burden of 3 more kids to the mix.... absolutely wild
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Because the more kids the more welfare the more money from the government And it’s still like that today
The love from a family helps you get through the struggle of poverty
They don't have support at home from educated parents.
Girl….

My stupid parents thought it'd be a good idea to move to logan square in the 90's.
Why tf did they move there?
I lived in Logan Square in the 1990s. It was pretty nice and safe above Logan Blvd. Below not so much.
Former Chicago Mayor Richard M Daley 1989-2011 had the police do their jobs and booked criminals as cook county's states attorney!

Better than filthy Philadelphia. What a pit.
Don’t believe in politics, that’s just a smokescreen. Two wings of the same corrupt bird.
Calling "Boss" Dick Daley a Democratic Liberal is hilarious work!😅😅😅😅😅
