      facts the most feared and respected nigga in LA was not Affiliated Street niggas... they were making power moves and had to move around hood to hood. Also nigga was would jump from hood to hood when the parents moved. So, from 2 to 6 you were locked in tight with bloods, then you move to a crip hood from 6 to 11 now you locked in with crips. Most of the street niggas went from school to school so you get to know folks that way. Then you get your first pinch, and you go to YA. Now you get cool or get to know folks form other hoods in the system. You start selling drugs... now you are pushing in the projects... so you get to know project niggas. It's the low-level niggas that stay in one hood... don't leave the block and think it's just that one program. That whole crip and blood thing is funny too.. how many crips kill crips and bloods kill bloods.... your homie boy/ childhood friend going to step for you no matter what color you got on.

For example, when jermerker and her mother were evicted from home in South Central, she always wanted money and have her own. With many trials, tribulations through poverty led her to the game. Like louie, who was introduced as a scrappy ride or die girl of Jerome with dreams and goals finding another way out and sharing the same entrepreneur spirit like jermerker expanding her empire. Even when times get hard, she never folds. She can hold her own, she got her own, and remains LOYAL

      @SMOOTHCUTPRODUCTION In the docuseries. "Here's how the crack epidemic brought the city to its knees." Based on The War of Drugs, the US began selling arms to Iran, with Israel being the middlemen. USA military aide Oliver North devises the Iran-Contra Plan. For example, Teddy entered the season as a CIA agent diverting money sale of drugs in LA to fund Nicaragun Contra rebel in Central America in an effort to stifle the communist Nicaragun government. Analyzed the second season began with President Regan on March 16th, 1988, and the address and threats the USA posed by the Nicaragun government Soviets Union support to topple democracy in South America. Proposing $100 million dollar aid packages from U.S. Nicaraguan "freedom fighters." With the scene cutting to Teddy watching Reagan address the Congress for $600 million in 1983 to prevent the Soviet Union from gaining more control in the region.

    In the 80’s growing up in Inglewood and South Central. Fila’s and all the shoes you mentioned. I’m not a a gang banger and I wore chucks with Levi’s and polo’s we all have different styles and me and my homies were unique in putting our wardrobe together. Fila and Sergio Tacchini was in my wardrobe in the 80’s. My uncles used to buy me all the sweat suites and shoes. They was balling.

    The WEst Coast at that time was defining itself. Part of my fam migrated to Inglewood in the 70s from Chicago(by way of Mississippi). Black folks were showing up from the deep south and all over and moving to Cali. There was no "LA accent" back then even if you watch the old videos. A lot of folks had country accents, So Jerome was an accurate representation of what you had back then.

    I don't watch these kinds of shows but on a side note I am a Brooklyn guy and I first went to Los Angeles in 2000. Went straight to the hoods everyone told me to avoid lol...Inglewood, Watts, South Central, Compton etc...the homies knew that I wasn't a street cat and showed me a lot of love and respect. Shoutout to my people out West ❤

    I said this from day 1 that snowfall was perfect they just needed somebody to fix wardrobe. Early 80s my pops n them had Afros and perms, few Jheri curls, suede Pumas with the fat laces, and tucked in white tees with gold ropes, bracelets and watches. Nobody on the west wore adidas tracksuits and kangols! And nobody had high fades in the 80s out west yet 😂 yea that shit bothered me a little.
