My cousin was gang banging, now he's locked up for a murder that happened while he was robbing some ladies house with his home boy, his grandmother died a couple weeks ago and I don't even think he was allowed to go to the funeral. Living that crime life is stupid.
@EseChava 22 facts man, you never know what you'll end up doing if all you're concerned with is getting some bread. All the more reason to be on that straight and narrow.
@@francisngannouhaircut2616 Nerds are uptight cause they're frying their brain trying to save the world. Geeks can be uptight jerks but over stupid shit like who is playing this comic guy in a movie.
Never join a gang, gang members are moochers, they call it tax but it really is more like give me free stuff. I hated it I'm full of tattoos and regrets.
Irie life absolutely thank God for sending us this man to share his story I honestly feel like big herk is preventing millions of kids from getting locked up thank you very much brother and may God continue to bless you and your family this is exactly whatever young man needs to hear

I remember growing up in blood territory. I was so scared I tried joining so they wouldn’t rob or jump me and an older guy said I had too much opportunity. I really would’ve died. Definitely ain’t like that.
Love this video I have watched it a thousand times I will watch it a thousand more too show that I'm not as tough as I think and I can lose my life out here in these streets because it rough out here and it's nothing but hate and murder out here every day. Thanks herc for the strong 💪 message
I knew a kid that in middle and high school was a good student, nerdy fut funny and fun to have around to an attempted killer by age 19 and dead less than a month after getting out of prison for the crime. He got into a gang and while huffing paint one night and riding with friends, shot ( and actually was the triggerman) at the backyard party of the house of a rival and paralyzed a girl. He did over 12 years and the girl's family killed him after he got out. He really was a good kid from what I remember. Some people change in drastic ways.
Maaaaaan that is fucked up bro. He only did just over 12 years though? Or what? Exactly how many years later did he actually get killed? I GUESS I'm asking, in other words, what exactly was his sentence for that??? I wonder how the family did it... Like, how they found him. I'm imagining some crazy shit like the Family found out the exact DAY he was getting out prior since those records are public I think, then followed him the day he got out, all the way back to the house or place he got dropped off at and just blasted him right then and there. That would suck so bad.
True, My family are in a gang. But I always refuse to join, beacuse where the benefits. I was a bad person getting into trouble but I knew when to quit, before I get lock up or dead. I'm in college going for Architect drafting and design. I'm happy not impressing people with no future. Love your positive vibes man.
You see that's what they don't tell you. You wanna leave that gang life behind, and elevate your situation the homies will try and set you up for the worse.
This is one of the most real videos I've seen Herc do. You can tell he's dead serious and wants people to have a nice life and not live a life like that. Keep bustin cheeks and living big man.
don't join a gang homie ain't no way to go in life when that man tell you life in penitentiary it's real like that I've been a gang member since i was 18 man I'm 44 now cuzz chirch is what's up now bruh I'm serious man it's not worth it at all.
@Corey Ferguson was going to say, that may the most ruthless punishment for living that life. Imagine getting shot up for some routine dumb-ass fuckery (ex. trying to hit a lick/retaliation from rival gang members), then waking up to realize you'll move nor never feel a thing below the neck for the rest of your life, all at the young age of 17.
Or be a shot caller which in a lot of ways is worse than jail, being a vegetable or dead. You become party to all the gang BS and direct a lot of it and you get so deep in it, you can't get out of it even if you wanted to and your family on the streets become potential targets if you don't do what the higher ups in the gang tell you to do. In many ways, that's even worse than being a rank and file member.
I love the jewels you're dropping for the young men of today, I just pray that they listen. But don't stop Big Herc, I guarantee you're reaching somebody! #salute
I remember when I was locked up I had a moment of enlightenment. I asked my celly "If we're willing to put our energy into things that risk our life/freedom then why should we be scared to put our energy into good things and fail?"
Damn herc I love listening to you and seeing what you do and I feel big time! I grew up in the hood and could of joined a gang im so glad I never did and now I look at my friends that did and it's sad to see all the potential go to waste. I wish there was more people like you in this world that had the balls to speak up the way you do and just spit straight facts! Love your channel this world needs these positive vibes man
It's really not worth it bc in the end you're just going against your own kind why the hell would you want to kill your brothers when you could help your brothers and all come together and change the future Also you'll never which day Is your last think about it you only have 1 life
I’m 53 about to be 54 and I am so glad I tuned in I was so close to becoming a gang member I really haven’t chosen the gang yeah I’m white so my options are very limited but thanks for making this video Mr. Herc
Fantastic message BigHerc. I think you have saved some kids life from destruction with this video. You're a a Guardian angel. If only this message would be compulsory taught at schools.
Good info! In the process now of trying to convince my teenagers how ridiculously ignorant it is to think the gangster life has anything positive to offer at all.
Had a classmate that died over a year ago. He was a blood. Got shot trying to rob someone. His brother and sister both bloods and in prison for life for murders they committed. His mother will never hug any of her children again. Were in the bay. One dead and two imprisoned in So Cal. Smh.
This is the realest fresh out episode I've ever watched

BigHerc, thanks for this. I wish there were more OG's like yourself that would do what you are doing. But you are enough. I hope people listen to these words of wisdom. I know I am.
Big Herc you really need to get out to these high schools and junior highs and really speak to these at risk youth. Please I encourage you to start a non-profit get some donations and work your magic. You are very articulate and you really can make a difference in people's lives.
All I’ve ever seen with this life is people and their families dying, incarcerations, and the end game of being a drop out with a target on your back from your own gang because you are now re-evaluating your life and the irreparable damage you’ve caused. Nope never worth it.
absolutely right, rappers be glamorizin da hood life but ain't nothing fun bout runnin bacc & 4th 2 ya mans house & different family members kause u on da run every week kause u doin stupid shit just ta eat gettin paranoid hearin every opp siren shit is nothing to want to do
It's true what Big Herc said. Your true friends will be happy for you and support you when you change; the ones that bring you down are the friends that despise you. People do this because it is in our human nature to compete with each other. Friend(s) has to bring the "changing" friend down to their level because of their own insecurities (due to not willing to change for themselves). This is the same concept that goes with bullying. Bullies project their own insecurities to a victim to make them feel better about themselves, it's a quick boost to the bully's ego (kinda like a quick high); but it is only a temporary feeling that the bullies get; therefore, bullying continues because of in search of the quick boost to the ego/quick high when the bully's own insecurities creeps back up, or seeing the same victim reminds them of their own insecurities.
The thing i hate is when you got old fools still banging and got kids and dont do shit for them but for ther homies they go ride really fast for them they need to grow ther ass up and do something for ther love ones im glad im change my self keep up the good work
Well said brother. You message resonates well with what I’m going through. I’m a family man and by no means interested in a gang. But I’ve been following your channel and you have some good positive messages on life. Especially with the fact about surrounding yourself with good, positive people. And losing ties with anyone negative.
The only retirement plan is death and the life being purgatory living the life is a treacherous one I respect this man big Herc for putting me on knowledge and freely guiding me man when things seems hazy and overall being in a gang isn’t what most think and it’s unfortunate because youngsters don’t understand the ramifications. Don’t fall for it if it’s too good to be true most of the time it is.... it seems crazy that vatos get indoctrinated.... to who ever is listening and reading take these words into account “Don’t make the wrong decision because it just maybe your last one”
"most people in a gang haven't left their block"
Most people don't know it's like that

Wish God would just come back or just guide me. I don't wanna f up in life....

And I'll bet no one in his gang has paid him a visit, or helped his family or done anything to support him in any way.
Join a nerd gang. Seriously though listen to Herc, he's 100% spot on and being 100% real.

A gang is the ultimate manifestation of how misery loves company. You join a gang, you join a box or a jail cell.
100 big herc.. Not to mention when u join a gang u also gotta be ready to sacrifice snd willing to lose your whole family..
Correct. From The Crips to The Hell's Angels... you're gonna have to make sacrifices and disregard basic human thought process.

Big Herc lacing you up with knowledge!!!!!!
Jail, vegetable or dead. They got 3 options
@Corey Ferguson was going to say, that may the most ruthless punishment for living that life.
Imagine getting shot up for some routine dumb-ass fuckery (ex. trying to hit a lick/retaliation from rival gang members), then waking up to realize you'll move nor never feel a thing below the neck for the rest of your life, all at the young age of 17.

In many ways, that's even worse than being a rank and file member.
Big Herc giving good advice. I have learned a lot from you since subscribing.
They think once they join that set it’s gonna be a butt party up in there, but they don’t realize they gotta put in work or become the work.
People forget that Scarface actually died at the end of the movie.
Scarface had principles, he didn’t hurt children or women.
Keep pumping these straight talks out man! They motivate me so much.
This video is on point. It's like they own you and you can't live your life 100 percent the way you want to. You're not free.
Second. Also I would say no. Be your own man and leader
Love the positivity ,this will help young confused people analyze things a lot more. Life is important
I've been to jail and the worst thing is looking out that cell window and regretting everything

Real talk Big Herc! You're a huge positive influence!
This has to be one of the realist videos you've made. There are a couple of people I grew up with that I wish could've seen this.
It's really not worth it bc in the end you're just going against your own kind why the hell would you want to kill your brothers when you could help your brothers and all come together and change the future
Also you'll never which day Is your last think about it you only have 1 life
I think the same way as you do
But... Some people are just fucked up in the head and never learn
Filipe Figueiredo remember not everyone is fucked up sometimes some are a product of their environment most of the time

How are gangs still a thing anyways?
the legacy of gangster rap, NWA specifically
Cause of the rappers and movies . Most want to live the easy life
Gangs will never go away its deep
