@@SupaSavage24 I'd say yes for the info but these videos are no where near the same chi scene is more like a dark documentary but they are definitely the best videos on TH-cam for inside info on the chi
The self snitching just reminds me of how psychopaths/serial killers have an ego and want some sort of recognition for their murders. It’s a common trope.
That's pretty much what it is. To a normal person, after committing a crime like this, it only makes sense to do everything in your power to keep it under wraps and avoid attention, but these lunatics want clout, more than they want to keep their freedom.

Some people are just stupid or ignorant fam it is what is but real talk Mamma duck way to old for this BS… People always make excuses because of her kids and age but fact is she just a toxic hood mamma who had a famous son who rapped
Forreal. He also makes it clear that he isn't someone who picks sides in these gang wars too. Some people do and its so dumb, especially being far away. Should never want these guys to kill each other.
@@920WASHBURN yes statistically people from those circumstances have very little chance to be much else. So yes. Who could judge that? Your attempt to remove the context from the reality is a hilarious attempt at satirical wit
The 40 something year old dude that got shot at work, broke my heart. I worked at a convenient shop in the hood and was robbed twice before we put a magnet lock on the door. 8 years removed and a 6 figure salary now, engaged, closed on a house, baby on the way. I always look back at how it could all have gone away because someone refused to raise their children right.
I’m very glad that you were able to make it past that and I agree it is incredibly heartbreaking. They had no idea that was going to happen to them that day.
Y’all see how he did an entire senior thesis, auto-biography, research dissertation and he’s never been to O-Block? These guys put everything and everybody on the internet. Snitch on themselves. Well done sir. 💪
That’s why it’s so easy for cops to catch folks. And if they can’t get enough evidence from the artists then they’ll eventually find a opp that will snitch
@Jason Allen corny AF 😂😂 it’s funny tho all them facial expressions and shit he really think he doing something. Folks really praising this dude like he Sherlock holmes.
@Jason Allen I used to feel exactly like you do. I felt like he was the ultimate culture vulture and while he probably is.. at least he does his best and the end result is typically fairly high quality.
His mom failed him. Instead of trying her hardest to get out the hood while they were young, she embraced the ghetto lifestyle. Grieve your son and all but stop acting like everything that happened wasn’t a product of their environment and her choice to not better their living circumstances. She needs to get off the internet and seek therapy. We don’t hear from no other mom from that beef because they realize both sides played a part in each other’s demises.
@@JoneallRichardson-r5e Yeah he was getting money and wanted to stay simply because he had fell in love with the lifestyle and the hood. It was her job to get them out of the projects before he even could. The projects should be used as a stepping stool for hard times. Too many people get there and stay there. She failed them and herself. She was cool with it as long as her sons was living. What about the broken homes and hearts they caused? So until she takes accountability, nobody wants to keep hearing the same thing. She not letting her own son rip. I wish none of them were dead cause they had potential to be real big and successful and left children behind but it was their mindset that hurt them the most.
Phenomenal journalism man, if you edit all this yourself that's even more impressive. As a Chicagoan all I can do is pray. I'm a father of 2 and I pride myself on raising my children to stay out the street! To never have to rob, steal or sell anything illegal. To be leaders and focus on education and not only traditional but self. I'll be in their lives and PRESENT to lead them in the best way I know how. This hurts me so much to constantly see my people wiping each other out like this.
@@timyrabbit absolutely, it's the most fitting for my actual life. I'm constantly learning and growing in all areas of life and documenting the process in hopes of helping others 💯
The feds must be 100% Sure about it otherwise they will fuck everything up, also they dont care about catching just a killer, they will usually try to get more people in one occasion
The word "can" is doing a lot of legwork there. 60% unresolved murder rate in chi city, and yet if they tried you reckon (and you'd be right) they could to 2x the job of people on the net who actually give a fuck? I doubt we'll ever see it, them actually even bothering to investigate Duck is almost a miracle
There's LOTS of fantastic irony in this saga. Like the fact Von dies instigating a FIST fight of all things. The ultimate rapper shooter savage, decides to throw hands wit Rollin 60s from GA. The fact that Durk was literally vibin' to Back In Blood on IG Live when he finds out Von got stretched. The fact that Vons dumbass decision got his bff T-roy's brother (Slutty) murdered. The fact Slutty's gun jammed as he bouta head-tap Lul Tim. The fact that Von caused OBlock Louie to take a headshot *eerily similar* to Wooski.
"Honestly, it's not even worth wearing the mask if you're going to be running around telling everybody you did the crime for a year." - This video in a nutshell.
@@AntyeStudios it’s not what u know it’s what u can prove. What ur talking about is called hear say! They will definitely look into it! You’re probably a cop Encouraging people to do crimes without a mask on to make your job easier
Let’s be real here. They didn’t do this for no damn justice for no FBG Duck. They could care less about justice for him. They did this because of where the murder happen. It spilled over in there world (there side where things don’t suppose to happen) and that’s why they went and got the guys. If he would have died in the hood, they wouldn’t had did all they did to get them and sad as it is, ITS DA TRUTH
Lmao facts, but maybe if they want to blow each other away they should do it in their hood rather than involving and possibly killing innocent bystanders/witnesses, so it makes sense why the feds did their thing
I like how Trap Lore Ross actually holds Von responsible for his actions. "Von and his crew rode around thinking they were untouchable, but perhaps it was that same attitude that led up to him getting killed." And "his go-anywhere-and-kill-anyone attitude is what got him killed." This is some of your best work.
The crazy irony is the amount of self snitching that occurs. It used to be that if you wanted to get away with a crime, you wouldn't say anything about your involvement and try to make yourself as inconspicuous as possible. Hell, even try to leave town. These days, the police don't have to do much investigating given the amount of people telling on themselves.
I found you today from Momma Duck. She gave a huge shout-out to you on her live today, saying how accurate you were on this documentary. What a compliment, congratulations! 😊💕💯
0:05 Huge shout out to British people making money off footage of black Americans getting shot on camera. Love channels like these. Big ups to queen elizath. I would tea bag da fuq out dat bich
@@SheaAujanel duck never killed anybody. He said and his mother said it... and she also said she's proud that while he's a gang member, he's never been a shooter, and wasn't ever referred to as a shooter.... not every gang member is a shooter
nooo. Their number one mistake was doing it where there were a bunch of witnesses and cameras. Their second mistake was doing it in a nice area. And the main difference between the hood and a nice area that is not the hood. Is that in the nice area, witnesses actually talk. And in the hood, you are very seldom to find someone who saw something.
I’m getting PTSD from binge watching all of their cases🤦🏾♀️ I seen a video from the 80’s in the CHI projects…it was heartbreaking but those teens actually wanted to make it in life they actually had dreams and aspirations
This shit was already on the net for anyone to see by the people that actually live in in the areas these events took place all he did was leech from them and package it up for the vulture community
@@MCR-M8 I told you why I was "salty" no need to conjure up a red herring because it shows you lack credibility. The very fact that you tried to make it about TH-cam popularity shows you are a vulture too and you are willing to disregard the valid points of him pilfering off people who actually live in these communities work because that's what leeches do - leech with no regard. Also Richard Cranium, just so you know, I don't do YT as means for income but for fun and archive purposes. Next time instead of using scarecrow and red herring arguments try addressing the actual issue of him being a leech.
@@butchatv6397 sounds like you hate white people, it looks deep and incurable. Keep crying while you hate yourself for not being part of the group you so very wanted to join
The craziest thing to me about all this is that there’s never any real issues between them. They hate each other so much, enough to kill each other, over nothing. It’s insanity.
Hatred for each other and evil is built into their genetic makeup, that is why those people can never thrive together anywhere and they remain firmly at the bottom of every society on the planet, they are the cursed people mentioned in the Bible, they'll eventually wipe themselves out all on their own without their enemies having to lift a finger against them.
No doubt right , just got home from work shower sat down to play some vanguard and figured I’d check TH-cam to find a podcast to listen to while I play and boom a long as TLR vid , looks like cod gonna have to wait till later.
The crazy part is just….other than it being a last man standing game ….they literally stay minutes away from each other….they basically went to the same food spots cause it’s all on that same street…so it’s so easy to catch one another
I lost a brother in Iraq, and another in Afghanistan. The grief and anger I still live with today was enough to motivate me throughout my own journey overseas with the marine corps. I cannot imagine myself as any better than any of these guys. Broken hearted kids, numb and angry, willing to do anything to make it hurt a little less when those birthdays roll around. It’s sad, but as humans, it’s just in us. It sucks to see multiple communities and hundreds of families torn apart by the never ending cycle of vengeance, but at the end of the day, that’s life. We are humans. This will be in us until there are no more humans.
I like how trap tells these stories unbiasedly with as much truth and facts as he can but also condemns their behavior instead of glorifying it like a lot of these other bloggers do. I’m definitely addicted to this particular documentary, stories like this happen all the time especially in my hood but it’s good to see someone shining some light on it
I might be out of place for saying this since I'm miles/kilometers away in Asia commenting, but I feel really sad for the mothers. Can't imagine kids dissing my children for killing him/her, showing no respect. I really hope situations like these could get better by time. People overlook Momma Duck claim feds or the government watching for that big bust on the most violent streets, y'all gotta remember there's an Asian proverb that goes like this: "mother hen will lose their life first before the snake got to their chicks"
You should do the murder of young dolph next. The suspects have been non-stop self snitching since the murder, and all their music videos were shot at the house where they found the getaway car from Dolph's murder
The attention to detail that TLR put into this as well as having a heart by saying none of this should be glorified is a very good reason why I feel he’s qualified in talking about stories like these. He broke it down on both sides and left no room for interpretation.
I expected a little more at the end, he could have shown how the families have been ruined. Duck's mom has lost 2 sons and a daughter and a nephew Coby HK, T.Roy and Slutty's mom lost 3 sons and a nephew Zell who she raised like a son. LA Capone's mom lost her son and her other son is now hated by his ex friends for snitching. Wooski has brain damage and his brother Big Mike is who went to prison for the murder King Von did with him, they were opps with their own brother. Cdai and Edai one dead on in prison for a long time. Lil Durk brother and cousin were killed. It's a mess of a situation where hundreds of families have been destroyed with their sons dead or locked up until they are old men or forever for petty nonsense since they were kids.
He can say dont glorify it all he wants tho, fact remains he’s using the misfortune of Blk guys in the hood to make money. In a sense he’s [re]selling their souls. Which he’s free (no pun intended) to do of course but let’s not pretend its some philanthropic, altruistic undertaking bro.
@@issa.israel you’re completely right and we both know some white kid from England should be the last person having a take on the turmoil black Americans go through but at the same time this is the internet and there’s not always a reason to find the deeper meaning of why
2 and a half hours of pure content man, I honestly feel compelled to put money towards your patreon strictly due to the top notch quality. That's how you know you're doing it right. Much love from Pennsylvania.
@@1008mduh… ducks mom literally disses the oblock/600 dudes all the time. she literally brags about her son wanting to kill people and she literally let and encouraged her son to be in the streets like that
She acted like she knew what wus up. Reason I say that is she spoke with street lingo and language. This is reality and it will never stop until we (mostly minorities)can stop acting like savages out on the streets my self included. And if they are real gangs lots of times it's not over nothing. If someone from some other hood is slanging in your hood they are taking money from your pocket. That should not b enough motive to kill but everyone in gangs knows the rules. And everyone knows what the punishment can be for breaking those rules. Not saying that this is what this is over. When you diss someone's dead homies you know what you are opening up for you and any of your homies.
I think this was the first 2 hour video I’ve ever watched and it was done so amazing , this was probably the most respectful video to come out about what’s going on in Chicago and not judging anyone in the video , great work ,
It’s because he clearly has zero ties to the streets, classic formula of speaking about black folks lives and profiting while not contributing any of those profits to the community he gains from…. Great story teller tho
I remember being in my 20s and going to Chicago a few times with friends. Everytime I felt an instant sense of gloom and evil just riding through. Everyone had a sad or scary look in their eyes/demeanor and I stopped going…
I love how the only reason we kill each other like this is just because we're told to hate the other side but its really over nothing. People say because we lost people to them but never asks why to begin with
When I finished watching this, I just felt so down and depressed man. This is such a depressing life these people live, so many young people have died in such a short space of time to the point each one is just a statistic. People like King Von are glamourised even though this man is a psychopathic serial killer, same with many other people from Chicago. I genuinely cannot believe people live this lifestyle. What is more crazy for me to think is that, just a 5 minute drive from parkway gardens/63rd is University of Chicago, where students live happily, enjoy life and educate themselves for a better future. Crazy how two different worlds are 5 minutes apart.
One of the high school's in my hometown is literally 2-3 mins from the projects and about 1 minute away from the worst neighborhood in the city. Crazy how many places are setup like that.
So much respect for Ross and what he's done here. This wasn't just another click bait video fetishizing gang culture. You can really see a better understanding of the conflict in chicago and compassion that most people lack on this subject. I can admit that I've been listening to these songs for so long with only a slight clue of how much of it was really true and never really knew the facts. I remember the first Von song I heard and my first thought was he isn't gonna last long. Something about the detail in the shit he was saying and the sheer disregard. A few months later he was dead. Shit is truly sad. Him and Duck could have done so much with their lives and been happy but at this point I can't even say I don't see why this lifestyle makes sense to them and people like them. All they know is violence and death. Think about how long you've been hearing the "smokin tooka" line in rap. It's been a long ass time man. I probably just found out what it was actually about within the last year but he was 15 when he got killed. 15! He was a kid! This shit has been going on so long that years later you still have grown men referencing the murder of a child as a diss. No wonder the the only thing that's important to them is get back. It's easy to judge if you don't live that life and can't understand it. Imagine living with all that loss and the constant threat of death looming over you. Just a fucked up situation and I feel for everyone involved.
Na this is still fetishizing the gang culture even if you think it isn't. I was like what 16-17 when Chiraq drill blew up and I 100% understood what was going on and how fucked up it was. I was a kid back then so I didn't care as much about what was happening but I still had a clear understanding, they literally rapped about what happened lmao yea the normies and new gen will now know what was happening but this channel is still making money off the gang shit and he not even part of it, he probably in a whole other country. Not attacking this dude but it's still Makin money off of talking about shit he not apart of at all
I watched a video of Tooka’s mom begging people to stop saying it and it broke my heart. All these guys were somebody’s little baby at one point in time. Your environment really does have so much to do with the person you grow into
the Irony was smoking tooka was like his guys like remembering him and missing him - then the opps took it and flipped it to like "yeah we smoking that tooka ass well" and every other dead opp -
@@litneyloxan there are plenty of folks that come out of the hood and live productive lives where they aren’t a burden on society. There’s no reason to give folks an excuse to do whatever they want because they grew up in “the ghetto”. Plenty of folks have it way worse in other parts of the world, and a lot of those folks live productive lives instead of being murderous scumbags. It’s sad for their parents and any innocents who miss them; but these “kids” are criminals who destroy their own community while stupid people cheer and line up to buy their garbage music. I pray that those who are still in that life see the light instead of continuing to WASTE their lives like they’re doing today.
took me 4 days to get through the video because I fell asleep watching this at night lol but I finally finished it, great work and extremely professional Trap Lore Ross. It's like watching a netflix documentary.
The saddest part is that, after losing their mill ticket, Von's team doubled down on the "we still here" "we still killas" aint nothing changed with them, they didn't learn anything from that tragic night in November. At least when we lost Pac and Big, the entire hip-hop community came together at Minister Farrakhan house and came to an agreement 🤝🏿 to stop the beef. I Wonder if these new guys have the maturity to do something like that?
I totally agree with this. And I don’t think they would, their pride and ego is too big and there’s always some clout thirsty person quick to hop on live and clown dudes for being real. Also, did you mean “mill ticket” or “meal ticket”? Just curious.
Sad But True... But in all Respect it bad blood an this is real street beef... Its a big difference between entertainers an actual gang bangers... But still sad
@@mkisternkumberthree7676 PAC got killed over gang banger trash. The guys Heron an them he shouts out in to Live and Die in LA are bloods. The fact the death row chain was stolen by crips. Him attacking a crip over the stolen death row chain. The fact he got M-O-B member of bloods and MOB fricken Piru tattooed on him. Then he got killed for it. He should have never associated with them. “Neckbone, Tre, Heron, Buntry too Big Rock got knocked, but this one's for you”. Literally all MOB Piru gang members. Tre or Tray is Trayvon Lane the fool who pointed Anderson out for stealing his chain. It was real street beef. It’s just that it was a crip and blood beef. Biggies involvement only comes from second hand guess work because biggie or diddy hired crips as bodyguard alleged or that Diddy offered a bounty to crips for Suge/PAC to be killed. That’s where it’s foggy. But as far as the main reason PAC got killed is obvious. He got involved in gang drama.
@@ethoslost2887 Funny you say that... MoB don't stand for member of bloodz... Its Money Over Bitches Piru most of my Family from there an heron is my Dads first Cousin... You not telling me anything i don't know... An PAC put himself in that situation... Those dudes in Chicago started doing that from a early age an was rasied in that. Pac wasn't champ
Von told us many times he was who he was. I dont think he cared about living a long life. He just wanted to live how he lived until the wheels fall off. If you told him he was possibly gonna die that day he probably would have said f*ck it...it is what it is. Duck in a way was the same.
Seems like the maker of this video like fbg duck more. He kinda painted von as a monster even though duck was a gangster as well. I didn't hear him say 1 negative thing about KI?
R.I.P to everybody who’ve lost their lives. I pray one day the people finally figure out an end to this cycle. Especially when it’s really over nothing at the end of the day.
This war has been going on for over a decade and I never understood any of it. Not the gangs, not the blocks, not the rivals, none of it. But you sir have done a tremendous job at putting it all together. And I’m only 30 minutes in Lol haha Bravo!!
@@reaper.-._.-._.-._.-. I think our children deserve better. Enough with young men dying and hating on each other. Planet earth cannot sustain this energy any longer. The more we broadcast hate the more they will absorb it.
Your analogy of FBG Duck is 100% on point. They needed Duck to be the opposition to create that excitement for the fans. Fans love a rivalry. But by killing the rival ultimately killed they self. Damn that's deep. I hope these knuckleheads out here see this and learn from this.
Those knuckleheads won’t learn from this, cause they idolize and romanticize it. Some of these channels I’ve seen talking about this story almost make it out to be like it’s a tv series and not real life senseless tragedy lol
I would normally never watch something for 2 and half hours, but this was amazing work, as usual. The effort you put in is unreal. Such a tragic story, your summarisation at the end is spot on. Look forward to your next production.
The real evil ones is the fans taunting the family’s of the deceased members. Ye the gang members are evil but they have been naturally moulded to be that kinda person due to growing up into this beef losing family/friends themselves without choice. That’s all they know. The fans they have nun to do w that shit & probably have lived a real good life but really be picking sides like they involved. Man that shit is sick🤦🏾♂️
Yeah its Entertainment for us. And for them its their one and only Life. Dont get me wrong, but its like the system wants it to be the way, and them are glad to fulfill their objective and call it honor or pride.
Until a cops shoot one than they all say " dey din do nuthin "... they good boys than they run around yelling blm till the next day they go back to killing each other lol
@@PauluzP you came all the way over here just to find an opportunity to say something stupid and irrelevant. Same stupid mindset and filled with hate. Go read a book and stay off the internet.
Imagine being a doctor in Chicago and constantly seeing all the black youth coming in and leaving in body bags or severely disabled. It's like a little piece of hell going on in that community and one has to ask exactly why? It's sad and I hope Light shines on that community to wake up the beautiful spirit that lies within.
Ducks mother wasn’t realistic, her son was super disrespectful an most likely a killer or had a hand in orchestrating some deaths… Duck is a street cat an he played the game an lost like most of em do. For you to be a mom an taunt your sons killers is ignorant. Hard to feel bad for mother who looked liked she rooted her son on. She was supposed to drag that man out of the city once he started making money. Sad documentary smh
Who wants a Gangster mama? Duck is responsible for Death in the streets of Chicago. Mama Duck should have been deterrent to Gang Violence instead of promoting it. Mama Duck unfortunately has NO CLASS....😢
This was longer than a lot of movies that are played in the movie theaters and it's free for my enjoyment is very much appreciated and it's clear that putting this whole thing together took a nice amount of time and I'm also very much appreciated about that as well.
You did such a wonderful job with this video. You truly care about the stories you cover, and provide so much depth in everything you explained. You’re in the top 1% of content creators without a shred of doubt. Keep it up, TLR.
@manij.7724. Insightful!! A loooong way looking for it! Maybe you can shed light, too, on why it would be “true” that a bunch of GDs from IL-concept (formerly the French colonial) “sound” as if they grew up in Alabama-concept instead?? IF these people grew up in the Midwest, what are these accents doing up there? ? I have relatives in Chicago, too, myself, who’ve lived there for two gens, or three (3). NONE of them says “fo’nem” for folks & them/forks & them. WHEN was there a Second Great Migration? I’m sincerely baffled. Or did they contrive these, too, for “authenticity” as dictated?
straight up, i wish this dude would do a documentary on my life... if you willing to do that for a fee lmk, it's a crazy one, either way, you're the best I've ever seen at this
True and it's a very good point but time is still of the essence in these kinds of emergency situations, as the first responders very well know. That time that Duck was lying on the pavement( while still alive and dying from his wounds) could have cost Duck his life. I could be wrong but I personally believe( and I've believed it for a long time and as far back as the murders of Tupac and Biggie) that the lives of these guys doesn't mean anything to the authorities and elected public officials. I don't know that I would say it( necessarily) about EMS and the doctors and nurses that attend to gang members and drug dealers because they'll do their job( as they have to) regardless to save someone's life- no matter what they've done or what kind of person they are but I do think it with law enforcement and the government-that they couldn't give two craps when someone like FBG Duck gets killed. I think that they cared more because it was a brazen attack that took place in broad daylight in a nice, ritzy area of Chicago and that it scared the people there( most of them white).
He calls people “Brothers & Sisters” that shit is extremely powerful for me! Congrats on another big doc sir! You’re a true legend! -ChiTown is here for Ross
@Modia Ways my “daddy” died when I was 12 shorty lol sorry I find it empowering as a people when some random white guy across the pond in England knows that our brothers & sisters should be treated as such instead of us killing each other 🤦🏽♂️ carry on bud!
@@battlersbeware7095 I hope u have an amazing and happy life. Don't listen to negative people on internet. Internet is really evil and is ruining ppl lives. This clout shit got brothers and sisters killing each other just for some instagram live views. Its so sad to see. I hope people start realizing this isn't a joke and stop celebrating people deaths because it attracts some attention. Honestly i hope this stops asap so people can carry on living normal lives, happy in their communities.
hmm idk about not picking sides. In this vid TLR is clearly moved by Ms. Duck, maybe its because its specifically about FBG duck but he doesn't seem near as impartial as gds vs bds or 300 vs jojo vids. Looking at this you would think those BD's were demons and not also retaliating just because their mom isn't on camera defending them after they passed. I mean Ms. Duck believed her son to be feared for a reason and that seemed kinda glossed over for a hit piece on O-block members.
Seeing Duck and Mama Duck crying on the ground made me shed a tear.. damn I remember crying in my mama arms wen my daddy died. Boy life is really really hard
I truly appreciate you and how you discuss these stories man. I love here in the US. And media outlets are so dismissive of the tragedy these kids go through. I love the work your doing man. Please keep spreading that positivity, and discussing these topics the way you do.
“It’s hard to believe that this kind of thing is happening on American soil” why is it hard to believe? America is one of the most ruthless places on earth
I understand her being happy her sons killers were apprehended but her son was guilty of the same exact acts. This is all so sad because all parties involved are in a vicious cycle. These kids in these neighborhoods need better resources and outreach before they become full blown killers. They need better role models.
She has done a lot to work with other mothers on both sides, she acknowledges Duck’s life but he was still shot going shopping and to my knowledge wasn’t a shooter.
@@patsysadowski1546 "If you diss me, I'm going to kill you."--- Duck. He also constantly disrespected the dead. He had this coming one way or another, and she shouldn't be so self-righteous about it, since he brought it on himself. He even had an opportunity to leave the city with an opportunity most do not get in those area. A two million dollar record deal. He didn't take it.
I watched the entire documentary, it was thoroughly researched, excellent storytelling, and very informative. Great job!!! Thank you for all your hard work on this documentary.
@@liveyourbestsoftlife5705 you sound ignorant. My comment wasn’t to you. And this has nothing to do with race, which you also forgot to mention Native American. I was asking about bots. So what you said makes absolutely no sense. Bye troll 👋🏼 🧌
You know it took a little ol lady that just so happen to be a substitute teacher in my school for a while to show me that there is an exit out of the hood. Alot of these guys don't even see a way out. I don't mean physically, psychologically they don't. Until this woman decided to invest in me and show me and equip me with tools I wasn't provided I was in this same mindset. People from the outside can't see it, or understand sometimes but I've been on both sides of the fence.
This documentary is phenomenal. It should truly be submitted to many academies for award winning journalism. Thank you TLR for taking the time to create these heart wrenching yet much needed looks into how systemic racism, poverty, oppression, lack and health inequalities have created and contributed to the inevitable demise of so many young black people.
The tongue is very powerful! Unfortunately, Von’s death mirrored FBG Duck’s murder. You have to be careful of what slithers off your tongue. It’s been said when you dig a grave for your enemy ~ dig two. This is just sad….Rest In Peace to all who are no longer amongst us.
This is the best thing I’ve ever come across on TH-cam. Ross thank you for covering the human element of these stories and speaking with respect and honesty.
Never heard of king von until he got killed and man, the guy was really out there like that. It's crazy to see both sides take a life and just laugh about it.
@@NealBonesasfff dude would have millions in his back account rn if he was here he could’ve directed movies too!! He was mad talented and he let them goes to waste
No one’s a winner in this story, it’s just senseless violence that wiped out an entire group of kids who grew up together minutes away from each other, if this was in another area of the country they’d probably all be cool with each other except the stupid fights you get in as kids but they’d all still be alive today to see what their lives would become but instead they were told to follow this gang war mentality that told them they had to hate these dudes they went to the same school with as kids, this violence needs to stop man

The self snitching just reminds me of how psychopaths/serial killers have an ego and want some sort of recognition for their murders. It’s a common trope.
Good lookin out on that one fr👀
That's pretty much what it is. To a normal person, after committing a crime like this, it only makes sense to do everything in your power to keep it under wraps and avoid attention, but these lunatics want clout, more than they want to keep their freedom.

The mom is irrelavent. Boys need to be raised by a mother and a father. Most kids who end up in jail or gangs didn't have a dad around
Why do we blame the mom when the fathers and male friends are the ones in gangs?
She was such a bad mom

His mom failed him. Instead of trying her hardest to get out the hood while they were young, she embraced the ghetto lifestyle. Grieve your son and all but stop acting like everything that happened wasn’t a product of their environment and her choice to not better their living circumstances. She needs to get off the internet and seek therapy. We don’t hear from no other mom from that beef because they realize both sides played a part in each other’s demises.

@@JoneallRichardson-r5e Yeah he was getting money and wanted to stay simply because he had fell in love with the lifestyle and the hood. It was her job to get them out of the projects before he even could. The projects should be used as a stepping stool for hard times. Too many people get there and stay there. She failed them and herself. She was cool with it as long as her sons was living. What about the broken homes and hearts they caused? So until she takes accountability, nobody wants to keep hearing the same thing. She not letting her own son rip. I wish none of them were dead cause they had potential to be real big and successful and left children behind but it was their mindset that hurt them the most.

I like how Trap Lore Ross actually holds Von responsible for his actions.

The attention to detail that TLR put into this as well as having a heart by saying none of this should be glorified is a very good reason why I feel he’s qualified in talking about stories like these. He broke it down on both sides and left no room for interpretation.
I expected a little more at the end, he could have shown how the families have been ruined.

She acted like she knew what wus up. Reason I say that is she spoke with street lingo and language. This is reality and it will never stop until we (mostly minorities)can stop acting like savages out on the streets my self included. And if they are real gangs lots of times it's not over nothing. If someone from some other hood is slanging in your hood they are taking money from your pocket. That should not b enough motive to kill but everyone in gangs knows the rules. And everyone knows what the punishment can be for breaking those rules. Not saying that this is what this is over. When you diss someone's dead homies you know what you are opening up for you and any of your homies.

So much respect for Ross and what he's done here. This wasn't just another click bait video fetishizing gang culture. You can really see a better understanding of the conflict in chicago and compassion that most people lack on this subject. I can admit that I've been listening to these songs for so long with only a slight clue of how much of it was really true and never really knew the facts. I remember the first Von song I heard and my first thought was he isn't gonna last long. Something about the detail in the shit he was saying and the sheer disregard. A few months later he was dead. Shit is truly sad. Him and Duck could have done so much with their lives and been happy but at this point I can't even say I don't see why this lifestyle makes sense to them and people like them. All they know is violence and death. Think about how long you've been hearing the "smokin tooka" line in rap. It's been a long ass time man. I probably just found out what it was actually about within the last year but he was 15 when he got killed. 15! He was a kid! This shit has been going on so long that years later you still have grown men referencing the murder of a child as a diss. No wonder the the only thing that's important to them is get back. It's easy to judge if you don't live that life and can't understand it. Imagine living with all that loss and the constant threat of death looming over you. Just a fucked up situation and I feel for everyone involved.
Thank you so much for this comment.

There’s no reason to give folks an excuse to do whatever they want because they grew up in “the ghetto”. Plenty of folks have it way worse in other parts of the world, and a lot of those folks live productive lives instead of being murderous scumbags. It’s sad for their parents and any innocents who miss them; but these “kids” are criminals who destroy their own community while stupid people cheer and line up to buy their garbage music. I pray that those who are still in that life see the light instead of continuing to WASTE their lives like they’re doing today.
took me 4 days to get through the video because I fell asleep watching this at night lol but I finally finished it, great work and extremely professional Trap Lore Ross. It's like watching a netflix documentary.
Ya I had to watch it in multiple "installments," as well lol
Advertising knives in the uk is nuts 😂 whole lotta “chefs” gonna use that code 😂
It's funny, I didn't even think about that living in the US
Yeah ik London niggas bout do a different type of cutting wit the thangs
AYO 😂😂😂very underrated comment
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah I caught that to
This tookaville vs o block deserves a Hollywood movie. The back to back killings and retaliations are crazy
Ross puts so much work into these videos. Always impressed.
The saddest part is that, after losing their mill ticket, Von's team doubled down on the "we still here" "we still killas" aint nothing changed with them, they didn't learn anything from that tragic night in November.
At least when we lost Pac and Big, the entire hip-hop community came together at Minister Farrakhan house and came to an agreement 🤝🏿 to stop the beef. I Wonder if these new guys have the maturity to do something like that?
I totally agree with this. And I don’t think they would, their pride and ego is too big and there’s always some clout thirsty person quick to hop on live and clown dudes for being real. Also, did you mean “mill ticket” or “meal ticket”? Just curious.
Sad But True... But in all Respect it bad blood an this is real street beef... Its a big difference between entertainers an actual gang bangers... But still sad
@@mkisternkumberthree7676 PAC got killed over gang banger trash. The guys Heron an them he shouts out in to Live and Die in LA are bloods. The fact the death row chain was stolen by crips. Him attacking a crip over the stolen death row chain. The fact he got M-O-B member of bloods and MOB fricken Piru tattooed on him. Then he got killed for it. He should have never associated with them.
“Neckbone, Tre, Heron, Buntry too
Big Rock got knocked, but this one's for you”. Literally all MOB Piru gang members. Tre or Tray is Trayvon Lane the fool who pointed Anderson out for stealing his chain.
It was real street beef. It’s just that it was a crip and blood beef. Biggies involvement only comes from second hand guess work because biggie or diddy hired crips as bodyguard alleged or that Diddy offered a bounty to crips for Suge/PAC to be killed. That’s where it’s foggy. But as far as the main reason PAC got killed is obvious. He got involved in gang drama.
@@ethoslost2887 Funny you say that... MoB don't stand for member of bloodz... Its Money Over Bitches Piru most of my Family from there an heron is my Dads first Cousin... You not telling me anything i don't know... An PAC put himself in that situation... Those dudes in Chicago started doing that from a early age an was rasied in that. Pac wasn't champ
Yeah it’s very sad but it’s a big difference between this beef and the biggie and Tupac situation
Von told us many times he was who he was. I dont think he cared about living a long life. He just wanted to live how he lived until the wheels fall off. If you told him he was possibly gonna die that day he probably would have said f*ck it...it is what it is. Duck in a way was the same.
Cold shit to say don’t care if they live or die 😢
It's rap. Dudes exaggerate because it's a persona they have to uphold. If he killed all those ppl, he would have got life before rap
@@antoniosmith197 you have to remember 60% of murders in Chicago go unsolved that's over half.
@@antoniosmith197 he beat the body
Seems like the maker of this video like fbg duck more. He kinda painted von as a monster even though duck was a gangster as well. I didn't hear him say 1 negative thing about KI?
R.I.P to everybody who’ve lost their lives. I pray one day the people finally figure out an end to this cycle. Especially when it’s really over nothing at the end of the day.
This war has been going on for over a decade and I never understood any of it. Not the gangs, not the blocks, not the rivals, none of it. But you sir have done a tremendous job at putting it all together. And I’m only 30 minutes in Lol haha Bravo!!
It’s honestly so impressive and insanely brilliant on how well put together this video is TLR you are a legend
This was unbelievably depressing and sad.....the cycle of despair literally never ends 😔
So sad
Yes, why we should thumbs it down
We should just keep laughing at what's going on in chicago😂😂😂
@@Quantolosophy what you'd rather no one know about what happend?
@@reaper.-._.-._.-._.-. I think our children deserve better. Enough with young men dying and hating on each other. Planet earth cannot sustain this energy any longer. The more we broadcast hate the more they will absorb it.
Your analogy of FBG Duck is 100% on point. They needed Duck to be the opposition to create that excitement for the fans. Fans love a rivalry. But by killing the rival ultimately killed they self. Damn that's deep. I hope these knuckleheads out here see this and learn from this.
Those knuckleheads won’t learn from this, cause they idolize and romanticize it. Some of these channels I’ve seen talking about this story almost make it out to be like it’s a tv series and not real life senseless tragedy lol
Duck made himself the opposition when they jumped Von on the bus years back.
@@iLitAfuseiCantStop trying to make this like some movie origin story shit
He smacked him up on the bus@@iLitAfuseiCantStop
I would normally never watch something for 2 and half hours, but this was amazing work, as usual. The effort you put in is unreal. Such a tragic story, your summarisation at the end is spot on. Look forward to your next production.
The real evil ones is the fans taunting the family’s of the deceased members. Ye the gang members are evil but they have been naturally moulded to be that kinda person due to growing up into this beef losing family/friends themselves without choice. That’s all they know. The fans they have nun to do w that shit & probably have lived a real good life but really be picking sides like they involved. Man that shit is sick🤦🏾♂️
Facts...super lame behavior.
cold world
Everyone wanna be a shooter in the suburbs 🤭
Fr fans the most disrespectful and they pick sides like it's gonna do something each side got grieving mothers
Yeah its Entertainment for us. And for them its their one and only Life. Dont get me wrong, but its like the system wants it to be the way, and them are glad to fulfill their objective and call it honor or pride.
Stories like this break my heart. They’re so stuck in a mindset they don’t even think twice about what they’re doing….
Until a cops shoot one than they all say " dey din do nuthin "... they good boys than they run around yelling blm till the next day they go back to killing each other lol
@@PauluzP you came all the way over here just to find an opportunity to say something stupid and irrelevant. Same stupid mindset and filled with hate. Go read a book and stay off the internet.
They're subhuman. They don't have the ability to think.
Duck never had a chance in life with a mother like that raising him
@@xxcrump3575 how do you know about his mum or how he was rasied stop talking 💩
Imagine being a doctor in Chicago and constantly seeing all the black youth coming in and leaving in body bags or severely disabled. It's like a little piece of hell going on in that community and one has to ask exactly why? It's sad and I hope Light shines on that community to wake up the beautiful spirit that lies within.
Ducks mother wasn’t realistic, her son was super disrespectful an most likely a killer or had a hand in orchestrating some deaths… Duck is a street cat an he played the game an lost like most of em do. For you to be a mom an taunt your sons killers is ignorant. Hard to feel bad for mother who looked liked she rooted her son on. She was supposed to drag that man out of the city once he started making money. Sad documentary smh
Def not a killer but yeah he did leak location of nuski that's why durk told "rip nuski" when he died
1:46:23
Who wants a Gangster mama? Duck is responsible for Death in the streets of Chicago. Mama Duck should have been deterrent to Gang Violence instead of promoting it. Mama Duck unfortunately has NO CLASS....😢
This was longer than a lot of movies that are played in the movie theaters and it's free for my enjoyment is very much appreciated and it's clear that putting this whole thing together took a nice amount of time and I'm also very much appreciated about that as well.
You did such a wonderful job with this video. You truly care about the stories you cover, and provide so much depth in everything you explained. You’re in the top 1% of content creators without a shred of doubt. Keep it up, TLR.
Duck never had a chance. Just look at who raised him
Yeah sad circumstances but world is better without him and Von alike.
It’s kinda crazy how Von and Troy kinda died the same . They both went looking for trouble and it backfired 🙁
Karma.
Right.
Too damn tough
Exactly
@manij.7724. Insightful!! A loooong way looking for it! Maybe you can shed light, too, on why it would be “true” that a bunch of GDs from IL-concept (formerly the French colonial) “sound” as if they grew up in Alabama-concept instead?? IF these people grew up in the Midwest, what are these accents doing up there? ? I have relatives in Chicago, too, myself, who’ve lived there for two gens, or three (3). NONE of them says “fo’nem” for folks & them/forks & them. WHEN was there a Second Great Migration? I’m sincerely baffled. Or did they contrive these, too, for “authenticity” as dictated?
This is absolutely phenomenal. This whole video was made possible because they just couldn’t resist the urge to self snitch
Amazing work TLR! This is a truly a masterpiece of documentary film making. I have a feeling that your career is just getting started.
straight up, i wish this dude would do a documentary on my life... if you willing to do that for a fee lmk, it's a crazy one, either way, you're the best I've ever seen at this
the sponsor shit you do is perfect too
1:09:18 Stopping EMS from responding to the scene of a shooting is standard procedure. The scene needs to be secured first so EMS isn't put in danger.
Finally someone who gets it.
True and it's a very good point but time is still of the essence in these kinds of emergency situations, as the first responders very well know. That time that Duck was lying on the pavement( while still alive and dying from his wounds) could have cost Duck his life. I could be wrong but I personally believe( and I've believed it for a long time and as far back as the murders of Tupac and Biggie) that the lives of these guys doesn't mean anything to the authorities and elected public officials.
I don't know that I would say it( necessarily) about EMS and the doctors and nurses that attend to gang members and drug dealers because they'll do their job( as they have to) regardless to save someone's life- no matter what they've done or what kind of person they are but I do think it with law enforcement and the government-that they couldn't give two craps when someone like FBG Duck gets killed.
I think that they cared more because it was a brazen attack that took place in broad daylight in a nice, ritzy area of Chicago and that it scared the people there( most of them white).
Happens all the time why should a EMT be put in danger to save killers.
I wish more people understood this.

@@legendal2463 thank you! 💯
@@willbeerr what did I lie about? Lmy father being dead?!? I wish I was lying…
I really enjoyed this…No jokes, all facts, thorough research, and no picking sides!!!…Way to go TLR
hmm idk about not picking sides. In this vid TLR is clearly moved by Ms. Duck, maybe its because its specifically about FBG duck but he doesn't seem near as impartial as gds vs bds or 300 vs jojo vids. Looking at this you would think those BD's were demons and not also retaliating just because their mom isn't on camera defending them after they passed. I mean Ms. Duck believed her son to be feared for a reason and that seemed kinda glossed over for a hit piece on O-block members.
Seeing Duck and Mama Duck crying on the ground made me shed a tear.. damn I remember crying in my mama arms wen my daddy died. Boy life is really really hard
sorry for your loss, Keep ya head up man 💯

Great job on this whole production. Wishing you much success with all that you create. This was put together perfectly
Who's back here after hearing that the killers have been found guilty?!😳
I absolutely love how you kept it respectful about FBG Duck’s mom
I understand her being happy her sons killers were apprehended but her son was guilty of the same exact acts. This is all so sad because all parties involved are in a vicious cycle. These kids in these neighborhoods need better resources and outreach before they become full blown killers. They need better role models.
She has done a lot to work with other mothers on both sides, she acknowledges Duck’s life but he was still shot going shopping and to my knowledge wasn’t a shooter.
He was mentioned in some shootings in 1 of Chicago 88 videos
Exactly 💯
@@patsysadowski1546 To your knowledge, but he could've easily been that.
@@patsysadowski1546 "If you diss me, I'm going to kill you."--- Duck. He also constantly disrespected the dead. He had this coming one way or another, and she shouldn't be so self-righteous about it, since he brought it on himself. He even had an opportunity to leave the city with an opportunity most do not get in those area. A two million dollar record deal. He didn't take it.

I won't sit through a movie but im all in when there's a TLR drop.. Master class in journalism sir. The uncut version is no joke.
You know it took a little ol lady that just so happen to be a substitute teacher in my school for a while to show me that there is an exit out of the hood. Alot of these guys don't even see a way out. I don't mean physically, psychologically they don't. Until this woman decided to invest in me and show me and equip me with tools I wasn't provided I was in this same mindset. People from the outside can't see it, or understand sometimes but I've been on both sides of the fence.
You are exactly right, there are other ways to invest your time in life , life is basiclly what you make of it ,
This documentary is phenomenal. It should truly be submitted to many academies for award winning journalism. Thank you TLR for taking the time to create these heart wrenching yet much needed looks into how systemic racism, poverty, oppression, lack and health inequalities have created and contributed to the inevitable demise of so many young black people.

No one’s a winner in this story, it’s just senseless violence that wiped out an entire group of kids who grew up together minutes away from each other, if this was in another area of the country they’d probably all be cool with each other except the stupid fights you get in as kids but they’d all still be alive today to see what their lives would become but instead they were told to follow this gang war mentality that told them they had to hate these dudes they went to the same school with as kids, this violence needs to stop man
