Wed Feb-14-18 11:46 AM by maro

Middle school? High School? College? Now? Don't front like you and your peoples didn't band up and create a lil crew you rolled with.

Thinking back, mine were ridiculous:

Scorpions
Mad Dog Blunt Squad
23RD Parallel / 23P
Mo'Grubbins Foundation

We bought some fake Fila hats (the shoes werent even in Charlotte yet, but my homeboy lived in DC and had a pair, so I at least knew what they were) and dubbed ourselves "The Fila Crew".

The whackest part of it all? The "Adidas Crew" made up some fake beef with us and tried to jump us at the skating rink. (yes, the Adidas Crew was a "gang", smh..we were trying ya'll) Needless to say we broke up shortly after (ie:stopped wearing the hats)

So Damn Tuff was just my dance group in high school..nothing major

was the name we came up with but we were just high and bored one day.

Freshman year of college we were called the 6 Man Crew. That shit actually stuck. We even had one dude who wasn't in the crew who hung out with us on some "I just want to be +1 cause I know yall ain't changing the name"

almost all the crews in school were off whatever street/ave you lived on or the park you kicked it at

4th grade

Kings Of Art.

we were taggers. it was catholic school.

i tagged the bathroom with KOA and within 5 minutes the whole school was questioned and they quickly figured out it was us and then it came down to figuring out who would take the blame.

fucking, no one spoke on it and in the end we were all punished lightly

On the 4th floor, obviously. There were like 12 of us on the floor, and about 10 other dudes that would roll through.

In retrospect, we would've have shit BUMPING if we took some initiative and got a big spot off campus. We had the floor lit as it was, even with all those rules.

There were only 3 of us really into hip-hop, the rest of our friends chuckled at our group names and our homemade album covers. It was fun as hell though.

and The Medallions....

in my city there were The Smurfs (crips) and there were The Knights (bloods) (they song was Siberian Nights by Twilight22)....


I did tracks for a group in MD that was called The East Coast Connect because everyone was from a state on the east coast.

26. "Natives Not Savages, Ses-Phi-Hi, & The Track-Agents "
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

When I was in HS me and two other friends part of a rap group called Natives Not Savages, we weren't making our own beats but I was just looping up beats or 2 or 8 bars beats on some pause mixtape style.

Then when I got to college I teamed up with a crew (made up of 9 rappers) who already had a name, Ses-Phi-Hi, they use to battle each other, and one day I battled one of their members and basically kicked him out of the group, then a year later a few members dropped out except three and then we added two more.

Years later my best friend who made beats and rhymed, he met up with another kat, and we started offering to produce for other rappers who didn't have good productions and called ourselves Track-Agents (similar to Trackmasters), and then we added another producer and two other rappers to the group.

But like all groups & all three I mentioned above we all eventually went our separate ways as we moved back to our hometowns, one of my HS friends got killed, the other went to the military, most of my college friends graduated and stopped rhyming, one help's his father out at his African import store, one I don't even know what happened to him, as far as my best friend he still makes beats & rhymes but is bi-polar and has a habit of buying equipment and then pawning it a month later, over the years he has had everything from SP-1200, MPC 2000, Dr. Rhythm, ASR-10, Esoniq EPS, Yamaha SU700, Triton LE1, and multiple 4tracks, 8Tracks, and mics, delays/reverb boxes, and even a few DAW packages too; all of them gone and I don't even remember some equipment he had for only a few weeks.

Anyway it's just me, him, & one kat from Brooklyn who rhymes I usually work with, who now lives in Philly.

Denver Street Thugs
culdesac we grew up on. About 15 kids all within 3 years in age. During the summer we walked to the high school pool and we rolled 15 deep and took over the pool. Every morning for school the kid at the end of the street knocked on doors until we got to the end of the street and rolled to school 15 deep. Same thing after school. We would challenge other streets in baseball, basketball, and football games. Still keep in touch with a few of them. Everyone knew about the DST's.

November 8th, 2005 The greatest night in the history of GD!

Lol, we were sitting in home room and D was like, “Let’s be a rap group!” randomly. Big Boi is his step-brother’s distant cousin, so he thought we were shoo-ins to just freely record in Stankonia or some shit. We started one day in 2nd semester of 8th grade and never got past 8th grade graduation.

In marching band in HS, we had our fake Dungeon Family shit going on in the tuba/baritone storage room. My boy lugged an ASR-10 between home and school everyday.

37. "Pi Squared, Transfer Row and the Four Horseman"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

In high school, seniors ate lunch on the cafetorium stage. My clique was the Black preppies; Black kids who were in the gifted program, AP classes, college bound...etc., and weren't nerdy. One day one of the jocks was sitting with us, kicking it, and one of his boys came over and , said, "Gerald, what the hell you doin' sitting over there with the Pi Squared Club?" The name stuck, and we started referring to ourselves that way.

My freshman year at FAMU was perhaps too fun. I became a raging pothead and party guy. After a first semester of a .25 GPA, I was in danger of losing my academic scholarship. The second semester was heading in the same direction, so I decided to transfer the next year before i got kicked out. I contacted my Plan B school from high school, and told them I had decided to take a gap year post high school and was my acceptance still valid. The said it was, so I preceded to drop all my classes at FAMU and spent the whole semester under the radar, still living in the dorms and partying my ass off. I fell in with a crew of cats, who for some reason or another had all decided to follow my lead and transfer. Transfer Row was formed. So while most of the dudes in my dorm were headed to classes and seminars, the gentleman of Transfer Row were smoking weed and playing frisbee on the lawn of the School of Business building.

After transferring, and getting my act together academically, I eventually pledged Alpha Phi Alpha. Among my chapter brothers were my roommate, my best friend from high school, and a frat brother who had grown up in my hometown, and became a great friend. Together we were the Four Horseman, dubbed that because we were always together and were similar in personality to the great Four Horseman clique from WCW pro wrestling.

Crew of rappers/producers that I rolled with whenever I was home from college/back home after graduating from college. I'm pretty sure we had other names, but I'm forgetting them.

We were the only black girls in the class, so we were automatically crew...we had:

2 Smooth
2 Cool (me)
2 Cute
2 Cold
2 Bold
2 Live


We signed our Graduation t-shirt with our names in a little box on the shirt and my Grandfather flipped out, saying "We worked hard to get black folks out tha box, and you put yourselves right back in the damn box!!!" *eye roll*

It started off of them teaming up at the park and always playing on the same squad. They played some Asians one day, and somehow the name derived from that. They even hit up my yearbook with the shit, smh
