Westside Connection At The Source Awards
- Thread starter caff
- Start date
If you mean by them bein' at the Source Awards then I think it's good exposure. Although I hate Benzino and his weak ass mag, I gotta give him props for this. I never expected them dudes to be there. Especially fitted up like that. Hopefully they album gets good national criticism and elevates the West towards the right direction.
I THINK THEY SHOULD PUT AWAY THEIR FLAGS IF THEY AIN'T DOWN TO BACK UP WHAT THEY REPRESENTIN.....BUT I DON'T GET HOW THE B'S AND C'S GET DOWN....IT DON'T LOOK GANGSTA TO ME....TO ME IT MAKES THEM AND THEIR AFFILIATION LOOK LIKE A JOKE....IF THEY AIN'T DOWN TO FUNK AND PUT IT DOWN FOR THE GANG THEY FULLY REPRESENTIN....THEN WHY GET ALL BLUE'D UP AND FLAMED UP LIKE THAT....I DON'T GET IT....MAYBE A CRIP OR BLOOD CAN EXPLAIN IT TO ME CAUSE I DON'T SEE THE POINT IN BANGIN OR REPPIN IF YOU AIN'T GONNA BACK IT UP....
As far as Mack 10, B-Real (Cypress Hill) said (in an interview I saw online) when Cypress was feuding w/ Cube, Mack 10 called B-Real up and said to him, "I don't really want to get into this w/ you...I'm a Blood and you're a Blood" or something like that...
Also, in '97, XXL had a story dealing w/ Rap beefs, and in the story of Cube Vs. Cypress, B-Real again told the Mack 10 phone call story and said "I had a lot of respect for Mack 10's calling me up, 'cause that's a street nigga just like me," so who knows...
PEACE!

B-Real is a Blood?
I THOUGHT HE WAS STRAIGHT UP REPRESENTING THE SUR X3.
"Hailing from the small suburb of South Gate, a small, rough and tumble community literally a stone's throw from Watts, B-Real (Louis Freese) and Sen Dog (Senen Reyes) grew up in the thick of the activities--hip-hop music and gang activity--that obsessed many a Los Angeles teenager. Sure, the house parties with break dancing were frequent, and rap music burst from the seams with shows like "Uncle Jam's Army" and the legendary all rap AM station KDAY on the airwaves. But when the smoke cleared, if you weren't part of a clica (gang), your ass was gonna get smoked. To hang out on the street, you had to have quick hands and a strong reputation.
B-Real, whose father and older brother were veteranos of the street life, took to gangbanging and slanging drugs like a fish to water. He rolled with a set called Neighborhood Family, and for a long time lived a vida loca that would scare the s*** out of your average Ricky Martin fan.
"I've seen it all," B-Real once recounted to Los Angeles Times and Vibe magazine contributor Cheo Hodari Coker. "We moved all the time when I was little because my father never wanted anyone to know where we lived for too long. He was always doing some down-low gangster s*** that he didn't want to tell us about. He got shot 12 different times--and lived. Most of my family had been involved in gangsterism, so it was easy for me to be attracted to it." www.cypresshill.com
