My understanding is that before they got famous, many of them were actual active gang members.

Chris Brown is a Blood
Drake and Lil Wayne is are connected heavily with Jazz Prince who is a very scary dude.

Dr dre, Suge Knight, Snoop Dogg etc are affiliated with the crips I think.


Just because they get famous doesn't mean they stop gang banging, once you are in, you are in for life unless you get blessed/blood out.

I may be wrong about this, just my thoughts.

Chris Brown and Drake? I thought they were from middle class suburban backgrounds?

But what about the east coast rappers that for years have been arrested and convicted on and off for one thing or another, people like DMX and Meek mill? And then you have someone like T.I who is forever getting charged with something. Even when they are released from jail about a year later something else comes up they've been arrested or jailed for.

Did you not see what I wrote, they are active gang members still running around doing the gang bang thing, just under the guise of celebrity.

They are not all active gang members. DMX is not an active gang member, neither are any of the G-Unit,T.I, Cam'ron, Meek Mill, etc etc.

TI got popped on a wepons charge, did his time got out and then him and Tiny ( his wife ) got pulled over and there was meth and mdma on them. He took the charge so his wife could watch the kids.

DMX was an active gang banger at one time, he falls into the guilt by association thing, where in those around him get him into trouble.

I'm not sure about G-Unit or Meek Mill though, but my guess is the rap game and gang culture in general run together hand in hand.
