- www.vladtv.com - Kurupt detailed growing up around gangs and being shocked when a kid on a bike stepped to him for wearing all blue shoes in a Blood neighborhood. He explains that at first he blew the kid off, but Kurupt said he didn't think twice about running home when the kid said he was going back home to get his gun.
Tha Dogg Pound emcee also spoke about getting a firsthand look at the gang life while visiting family in Compton, but Kurupt says he's not active and adds that he's not a gang banger.
Check out the full interview above.
I visted my aunt in Compton back 1990. Iwas wearing a blue jays jersey, blues jeans with some blue laced nikes. Before i went to her house, stopped inside a store to grab some snacks. By time i walk out, about 20 dude draped in red and burgundy bandanas surrounded my car throwing up gang signs and shouting wuddup Blood! I stood there confused cause i didnt know much about banging. Then 1 of the guys looked at my Michigan licence plate and said"Oh Blood from out of town, he aint no Crab" then they all just hopped back inside their minivans and cars and pulled off. Man you talk about relief! I was scaaaaaaared!
😂 thats wild... i was 8yrs old in compton in 1990
Crazy!
Man I got story's to being from Inglewood man s.m.h
Yea sure
Damn you lucky man most niggas don't give a fuck what yo license plate say they still bust, god bless
I like Kurupt's response to the kid saying he was going to go get his gun and shoot him. Kurupt could have easily lied and said some shit like he stayed put and the kid never came back, but no he said he got the fuck out of there haha. You've got to respect that kind of honesty. I would have bounced too haha.
Respect it or expect it!
He started that story over about 4 times and his bike sound effects killed me every time! Lol
Right before he said he ran I said to myself "I'd dipped soon as he left on his bike" lmao. Real shit ain't nobody standing there
7Chambers, Inc Interesting, but actions of a scared man, weak, almost like a pussy. I'd wait for whoever if I was unarmed. Tell them shoot me. And see what they do. Why run. Life is like that.
Well, you do that deez723.
deez723 You'd got shot too, or gave up your kicks when he came back.
7Chambers, Inc word. Gotta bounce when shit go down, and you ain't prepared.
7Chambers, Inc
hahahhahaha
Ppl complaining they can't watch this video because Kurupt sucking his teeth, but will probably sit through a 30 minute video of LL cool J doing his liplick routine lmao.
😄😄😄😄😄
platano214 Indeed
platano214 LL cool J Lip exercises lol
platano214 lmao 😂 ...Are you from Plano? I see the 214????
miro11912 yeah but for real, he seems fucked up on something tho.. mad respect for this guy but I'm thinking maybe he should have stayed home today... Lol. Great rapper, one of the goats... But drunk/high on something... It is a little annoying... He just keep on repeating himself over & over & over... Haha..
I just came here to count how many times he sucks his teeth and says "indeed".
Lol
That shit is terribly annoying..I hope the homies pulled his coat to how stupid he look..
sooo....what's the tally?
Bruh same shit i was thinkin get a toothpick
Popcorn stuck in the tooth ass nigga!
I lived off Hoover Bl in late 70s. Maybe around 78 or so when I was 12, I got into a scrap with my 12yo neighbor. He told his 14yo brother who came out and pulled 45 cal 1911 on me. It wasn,t needed because he could kick my butt all day everyday but, he was making a statement. Over the next few years kids with guns was a common problem. Many parents (not all) were single mothers in my neighborhood. All they knew was they sent their kids to school & took them to church Sunday. I never told their mother or any adult about the gun because something about him fucking me up, rang true in my head.
By the time I was 15, I probably had five gun stuffed in my face on real serious deals. Luckily that was before the mid 80's when idiots would drop you for no reason. Before then, they actually needed a reason (not a big one) to actually kill you.
"I knew he was serious... especially the way he left"... lool that lil nigga werent playin no games.
Keeping it 100 kurupt I respect that.
“ I knew he was serious, especially by the way he left “ 😂😂😂😂
You already know😅😂🤣
They gotta do the cartoon version of this
Man, this brought back memories. I used to teach high school right over by Crenshaw and Slauson. I pray my kids make it out the neighborhood and do big things in life.
Gotta love the OG LMAO "I'm from 60's, so it woulda been all bad"
your majesty mrmac215 tf are we gonna look up nobody know’s who u are 😂💀
@your majesty mrmac215 how does it feel to have such a cool cuz
@your majesty mrmac215 Just because you say it don't make it true anybody who been listening to Kurupt know he's originally from Philly
I know who he is, he's a Killa 😂😂
😂😂😂
Not kurupt 🤣🤣🤣😂
Lol wow
He on youtube?
He grew up to be a beast... A real killa... 💯 👏
Knowing what I know about gangs I can easily assume that the kid who tried to check Kurrupt was from Hawthorne Piru.
+Carlos Wilson Jr. Probably
Yea but where is he now
L.A.
look at the big brain on Carlos
them dirus weak
One of my favorite lyricists of all time. His flow was serious
he got pressed by hawthorne piru
they extinct now
"We gonna play a game. Who can get to the house the fastest." The funniest story I've ever heard on Vlad Tv.
Get the homie a toothpick tho vlad.
the way he said I'm fraaaam siiiixties
Lol you caught that shit too
D-ice LOL shit too funny
Sounds like a surfer bro for a second
He is not from 60s ..🤦🏾♂️..stop it
Kali Pooh he's a Rollin' 60s crip
I liked how he was just honest about getting the fuck outta there when the kid stepped to him because he knew the kid was real. No stretching the truth about being hard. He was out!
That's the funniest story and the saddest story at the same time.
I think its amazing for a brotha that grew up in this type of environment and never claim he’s a bad ass or throw up gang affiliated signs even though he’s Rollin 60. Unlike a lot of new artists that grew up far in the or midwest to show a rep a set after they become famous and move to Beverly Hills. Much respect ✊🏾. Prime example that you dont have to be the environment from which you came. Just stay real, keep it in your rear view and move forward in life. Its a part of your story and thankfully you made it out to tell it.
Vlad(being from the burbs) be so fascinated by these hood tales. All giddy & shit
I had a similar story happen to me back 96 I was middle school in L.A of course I was wearing brand new adidas shell toes, some ESE kept talking about how much he liked my shoes, he asked what size I was, I said 6 1/2 he said " you lucky that's not my size homie, or else I wouldve taxed u 4 Em"...That same year a kid our age was stabbed in the chest and killed by a rival gang member. Some parts of L.A are scary
you should of stuck em just for talking reckless, you can't let people talk to you like that. next thing you know, one of his boys might just happen to have your size.
+Kanye Christ idk where you are from, but where im from it means getting hit.
mioch bioch In Maryland stuck means stab him
You should've said MY size homie
mioch bioch you would be shitting you’re pants if someone pressed you
Crazy shit, him and I had the same experience almost. When I came out here from Chicago, moms bought me red suede pumas with the fat red laces...little dude came up to me after school (3rd grade) and said, "You can't wear those shoes around here, this is a crip neighborhood". Had to ask moms what he was talking about cause I was too young but needless to say, I never wore those shoes again.
Not where you from where you @
yeah u did it good cuuh, we should be careful of what colors we wear dhz
Subhanallah 😮
Fools think that West Coast Gang Bang was to play with!!!! Nope!!!! You’ll Die!!! I’m from the Midwest. I knew better!!! Straight Tan & White with No Ball Cap when I was bumpin thru USC, Compton & Watts!!!!!!
he talkin bout Hawthorne Piru Gang
My dad moved right across the street from HIS when my parent got divorced. Up to that point I grew up in Redondo Beach. Got my hood education real quick!
+Topper Harley Yeah, being in it makes you learn quick...
teach me
Remember .. This man has brought us "Moon Rocks" .. will go down as a legend on and off the mic #respect
I'd take a little 13 year old seriously, too, if they said they were going to shoot me. You never know which one actually will.
c walk homie
+shanaaynay69 Kurupt ft. Tray Dee & Slip Capone
shanaaynay69 c walk home..
"Oh No No NOOOOOOOO" 😭
DPG - New York New York still one of the hardest 90's songs. That whole Dogg Food album was fire start to finish.
I met Kurupt a while back. Cool and funny dude.
Kurupt understood gang culture and knew how real shit was. He remembered that old saying " I'd rather them say there he go 🏃 then there he lay"🤷
KC? Where Jo Jo?
Real nigga here
I heard him freestyle one night on the radio,the onlything I could say was( DAMN) I did not know he could flow like that
"I'm just Kooo-Rupt Cuz"
That's a damn shame parents let their kids act like that. With no self respect or shame. I bet whoever that 13yr hoodlum was he's either dead or locked up
He doing life
Likely
Why can't we glorify peace the same way we glorify killing?
Kurupt need to rep Philly more. He was practically an adult when he moved to LA.
I was in Pomona, Ca in like 1994 and I said "whats up cuz" to a kid playing pool at a recreational center. I had no clue that was gang talk. The kid flipped out and I didnt even know why. I was confused. Blood for bloods and "Cuz for crips". If you dont know the rules things could get dangerous.
What's Brackin Blood?
I'm from Pomona it's real over here I was asked "do I bang?" by some crips in the neighborhood at age 11. Didn't even know what bangin meant at the time. Started witnessing drives bys and shit. It's no joke.
banging is for pussies who can't fight
I disagree. Banging is ignorant but a fact of life , since the inception of this country, for poor communities whether that community be black, italian, jewish or otherwise. People who can fight have banged. I feel your sentiment, but the issue is bigger than being a punk or not.
Ummm no banging doesn't have to be a fact of life, maybe in your life but not in mines. That would be like me saying serial killing is a fact of life. You have a choice we not living in Rwanda, so again banging is for pussies.
Rich Rollin Ne6orhood 60'z Crips....Kurupts a legend...lyrical beast in his prime.....much respect to him!!!!!!!!
This nigga got more stories than Quentin Tarantino shiii
sucking teeth or kiss ma teeth is a Jamaican dissemination towards a person of dislike
2:35 The way he told that story was immaculate and funny as hell! Watched it like 50 times already. LOL. Glad I didn’t grow up in that environment. Smh.
I agree but small city are wild too. But the LA shit I crazy cause that environment no matter what you claim you have enemies eveywhere
Vlad: do you remember the verse
Kurupt: INCREDIBLE......
Gotta respect a man whom tells the truth opposed to tall tales! Keep that extra shit on beats or in movies. Mess around and die trying to be Invincible I
@3:30 in case you didn't know he was talking about lil roscoe from Martin!
This is actually a sad story.
L.A.GangBanging is it's own reality. If you wasn't there in the 80's you really can't understand... I remember a time i was at my potnah's house which was right on the edge of the Jungles,.... and we was walking to the liquor store but we weren't gang members,.. still we knew we were not exactly from the red side of town. Next thing you know another potnah who was with us noticed a crip dude walking into the jungle,.. He was blue'd up with a trench coat on and a cane with six blue rags tied on it. we stopped him to talk to him and see what was going on,..... cause we kinda knew him,... and he said,.. Cuzz I'm finna go Kill me some slobs right now,.... then he showed us the sawed-off,........ mind you,.. I'm talking bout a fool WALKING "INTO" the Jungles,.....That shyt was like a one way in,........ one way out.....HE WAS JUST ON ONE!!! That's why when I see these so called gang bangers from all over the planet,... I be laughing at they just add water ass... Oh Yeah,.... Kurrupt ain't lying,.... And He from 60's..... met him at battlecat's house when I got out the military,.... He was the one who told me what a "bird" was,....I know he thought i was a corny motherfucka,.... But I never gang banged,.. just rap and Hip hop from the Crenshaw District,...... I guess maybe I bang that shyt!!! Ohgeezus2wyce...... Crenshaw District Emcee!!!! Westside.... Knegah....!!!
I say the same thing when I see a nga claiming blood or crip from the east coast. Like nga you not from the west coast lol, ain't nobody put you on to the set
Taivelo YRN are you stupid g
+Michael Baker EXACTLY. I'm a 90s baby from Long Beach...and though I was raised in the church, I saw things like this early on...cats loaded, with a loaded gun, down for whatever...and some cats killed just for being at the wrong place around the wrong people...it's sad that it happens but it's a way of life...something you just get accustomed to...it's funny when I meet other people from different regions (East Coast, South) who claim this stuff but don't fully know the background to it all.
+Taivelo YRN I seen a blood nikka in ny on the east coast shoot two crips for disrespecting his set! sane rules n same shit applies not much different
Swindeville 90z Not completely...I've talked with some of my East Coast friends who bang...it's perplexing to them that there are crips who beef with other crips...or that the West still flags...the South focuses more on blocks and neighborhoods than actual crips and bloods...they all have the sane concept, but the West is a bit more complex.
A kid was going to kill him for wearing a certain color...*Were (neighborhood) rules posted in clearly marked areas though?*
the same kid would have seen a white dude in blue shoes and said "nice shooz homie, where u cop doze, suh?"
That's l.a. for ya brah colors and outfits can get you killed out here
ankokugaiBOSS naw they get banged on too brah
I Still Bump Master P Heavy! UHHH! yeah I'm green. You the king of the streets, right?
Zackari s. when i see white people in LA, they be surfing, skateboarding, baywatch bikinis, palm trees, shopping in beverly hills, partying, having the time of their lives like they are in heaven, wearing blue, red, all sorts of shit. I guess the bangers just go through a crowd of white people like they invisible and stop Black people wearing colors and be like "take dat shit off homie!"
Thank you for this refreshing non-supergansta story from Kurrupt. East to West, if a young punk steps to an older head and leaves, take off or be ready to face gunplay because that fool is just trying to get a rep by killing you. He don't want no straight up scrap with hands, he want to catch a body. Kurrupt do ya thing & get back in this game.
Im From LA & Kurupt one Of Our Own & Gets Respect For Keeping It Real With Us Since Day 1!!! 100%
For those that don't know, this is Dave Chappelle's brother...Kurupt Chappelle.
lmao
I hope this wasn’t supposed to be funny
llamf
Rashid Omar 😂😂😂😂
"Such and such said, you need to take yo shoe's off." lol
that wooy sound he makes at 0:40 is hilarious
Kurupt is definitely in the top 10 of all time period.
1:52 when you ask the teacher in the exam review whether he can possibly give you 1 point more because you actively participated in the class
What about REDRUM Kurupt
Hahaha
What if Vlad posted a whole video of RedRum781 just exposing Kurupt?
Carlos Wilson Jr.
Exposing Kurupt on what, Redrum feelings was hurt cause Kurupt never paid him no attention that's what it looks like to me everytime I hear Redrum speak on Kurupt
You know they beef..why bring him up homie?
laxpopov
Because this is an interview homie and VLAD should have asked him about Redrum beef homie and how it started.
RIGHT...BEING TOUGH DOES NOT STOP BULLETS!!
This was sad and funny at the same damn time. Wish people didn't have to kill each other over material stuff
Real shit Words from the wise 💯
From the 60s Damn what is he doing!! Looks like he is 25
Lmaoooooo you are too funny thinking he meant 1960's
+Jamal Jewel haha i am not from America so :) but i gotta say he looks young for his age. He must atleast be in his late 40s
radioclash84 he's smokes alot and when he said 60s he meant Rollin 60$ crips gang in cali
Hawthorne active as fuck too homie don't get it twisted
I would have loved fatal and kurupt doing an album... They wouldn't compliment each other because they were so similar but they would bring the best out each other...t.i.p fatal... kurupt very underated on the Rushmore possibility of rap...
I remember when i could still get that drunk.
Man he look super young still, Blessed
KURUPT is awesome! Very dope lyricist. And he keeps it real. #Certified #homie #bigBruh
That jacket is loud as a MF🤨
im probably one of the few people on here who has lived in the south , lived in los angeles and then lived in new york . Most of the comments on here about both ny and la are true from my own experiences and the gang lifestyle resides in both cities but with different codes...for example in la its not about colors anymore its more about hats and symbols like being in compton and rocking new balance and a ny fitted. a fact about la is that you really cant tell when you switch neighborhoods if its not identified by graffiti where in ny you caught wearing beads out here you making a statement like red and green for example. In la i did have several problems with race issues exp mexicans. At the same time though i did have some mexican homies that once they realized i wasnt from la didnt trip
Interesting. Could you explain the relationship between blacks and Mexicans out in LA? Do the two ever mix? Believe or not there was a time when he had blacks in all Mexican gangs. This was during the 80s. If you ever see the 2 Breakin movies they show the unity between the two back then It's funny how as time went on they went backwards.
I experienced racism and friction between the 2 races and in some cases I was in the middle...for instance alot of arguments Where I was not in the situation but was then approached by mexicans because I was black and I was the closest thing for them to take their anger out on. Also its alot of mexicans talking shit in spanish when a black peraon comes in their stores. Its that way in ny too I live and work amongst Hispanics
Wow you hit it on the head...I lived in wash heights ...aka dominican central and they def hate black people .my boy dominican but looks black and he tells me all the time how much he has to fight because his own people hate....and yes you were right when I lived in la it has some bad mexican broads but they def. Dont date black men it was like I had the plague when I holla d at a mexican girl. Mexicans up here in ny say the n word matter of fact I have heard every race say it but when I was in la and in the south that shit didnt get down. New yorkers let races say nigga up here but down south I was fighting for people to keep that word out they mouth. In genwral hispanics are racist from jump when imo black people dont care what race you are
slickkapone I experienced all kinds of racism out in la . First im 6'4 200 so some may be intemidated but that may have been irrelevant. All people hate blacks in la...whites hate blacks ..asians hate blacks ...Hispanics hate blacks and blacks hate blacks. Neighborhood wise heres the problem if your black . Moving to black neighborhoods are a problem. There are gangs everywhere and youll get yourself in some shyt like not knowing what hat to wear. Also u cant tell what neighborhood ur in...theres no signs. Hispanics kill blacks in their hood we dont. White s would walk down the other side of the street to avoid me and I was judged everywhere. Hispanics out there were racist when it came to dating too. I made the mistake of treating a mexican woman as a woman out there to holla at her and it was like I had the plague...she was so disgusted at the Idea of being with a black man...we should start revoking hispanics .dealings with blacks and stop everyone from using the n word. We use it as indearment they use it as racisim
slickkapone its funny I live in ny now and im from nc and fla . Now all I hear is new yorkers coming with alot of jokes on the south but it sounds good out there. I loved la though and I would live there again ...but im just saying if you go keep your guard up know about the race cards and just befriend those that befriend u no matter the race. My roomate was white and we got along fine he was from Illinois...I had mexican homies too but i was having to many issues. Ex 1 crazy bums who will fight u...I was on the bus and a black kid who was mentally gone or homeless tried to make me exit off the back of the bus...ex 2 a homeless man who thought I was b4 talking about him when I was talking on the phone approached me to fight. Ex 3 another black kid put his hand in his waist on his gun when we walked past each other... ex 4 I holla d at a Chiquita and she treated me like it was a disgrace to her to be with a black man. Ex 5 this mexican man was crossing the streets and these crips almost his him..the mexican was drinking and they exchanged words and the crips pilled out. The Mexican saw me sitting at the bus stop and said if I wasnt such a gentleman I would fight u because of that...ex 6 a black man bumped a mexican girl and walked by these 3 mexican men I was behind him and the mexicans wanted to fight me like I did it. Ex 7 police at tge airport my first day in la searched the shit out my bags for drugs...day 1. Ex 8 there was this pool party of my friends from work..all races but in the party it def became segregated even though we all fd with each other.
Im sorry...you and Daz have some bangers i still listen to regularly.....Peace
LMAO! The details of this very impact-ful. Great Job Vlad.

Interesting, I thought Kurupt moved to LA a-lot earlier
