Shout out to K. Mac for the national geographic lesson @27:55. Hahahaha! "Usually the smaller one is the female". " You see these ain't regular Hawks, these are what we like to call Hood Hawks. They dont fly, they float." Hahahha. You the man Mac!
@@manizahir8987 And you aint go hands so everybody even I guess. He is stamped in LA street history. His lineage traces back.. and after. You just a disrespectful punk typing behind a keyboard. Where you known from?
The Monson brothers are really good people. When I went there to train in their backyard with Teddie Monson 8 years ago he is a very down to earth dude. He didn't look at me differently because I wasn't black. All he cared was about getting you fit and swollen. He left me with a wealth of info on muscle growth and good advise on finding a good woman. Now I'm 50 and still motivated and pumped.
This is how I learned history as a child, sitting at the feet of my Grandparents. This series has been the closest thing to that. Thanks to both Big Macs, Kev and S. This is dope.

Sitting in the backyard telling stories of the old days. I can watch all day. Especially the way Craig Monson answers you can picture it in your mind as if you was there. Good touch throwing the archives in there as well
Craig Monson… I met him in 1984-85 at Serge Nubret’s gym in Paris. He was preparing Mr World, tall class. There were other bodybuilders from the USA who were preparing the contest. Jeff King, Jeff Primm and John Brown, also a number of French bodybuilders Serge Nubret was doing the Pro Mr World wabba, Gabin Lambert, Jules Jupiter, Daulcle, Christian Gomba, Eduardo Kawak was training elsewhere, keeping away from Serge Nubret as they were competing against each other. Craig was a nice guy, very communicative. Unlike most bodybuilders he was truthfull. He spoke to me about putting turkey into a blender and drinking a milkshake of turkey a day. Craig Monson was incredible strong even pre contest he was pushing some serious heavy metal. Good times
I remember when I went by his crib, he signed my book. He told me that when he went to go see my pops in The hospital, my punk ass sister wouldn't let him in to come him. That hurt my heart dearly that she did that and i didnt know cause i was flying back n forth from Vegas to L.A. checking on him. Me and my sister fell out after my pops funeral 5 years ago this May cause she was keeping people, family, and my pops old buddies like Monson, Rick Ross and others. Rick came when i was there. But Craig Monson is a living legend and i was deeply pissed when he told me that.
Craig ended up being one of my favorites if not my favorite. His memory and attention to detail are what make him, A.C, Cutes and Jimmy Lavender my favorites. Excellent series as always
Kev Mac: did you take steroids ?? Mr Monson: yessss! This is why I respect this man. Kept it all the way real from the jump. Got nothing to hide or be ashamed about. Just honest. That's a man's man.
Deep into a story about Bunchy Carter and Geronimo Pratt, then all of a sudden: “is that your pen or my pen?” 😂😂 man, this is golden. You can’t pay for this kind of experience listening to a legend talk about other legends. Classic.🙏🏾
Black American's We Are A Different Brand when I come to genetics. Especially those of us that from the SOUTH. Great Interview I Can't Get Enough Of This History!!
Arkansas in the building.I've watched every video you put out. This is best thing to watch. Nobody will every top your style Kev Mac. I have family in Cali. Much luv my brother
I love these interviews...Mr. Munson keeps it real, genuine and authentic. "It was 7 of us in the house plus a momma and a daddy. It was almost 10 of us, I ate what momma put on the table. I ate that from 13 to 20. Then from 20 to 25...I ate whatever the state gave me.". I wondered why those dudes look smooth and plump...they wasn't built like us"🤣🤣. "What it look like cuz; what it it look like cuz?"...Ahh man!!! he got you cuz"🤣🤣🤣
S Mac is hands down a great interviewer respect to that brother. He definately asks the right questions at the right times. and isn't afraid to ask the tough questions...salute
These 30min+ videos go by so quick!!Instantly hooked from start to finish !! Appreciate it BIG KEV MAC ✊🏽 And big ups to OG MUNSON for sharing the history of the culture from his perspective!!! Could listen to his stories for hours if not, days!!
One of the best KevMac interviews ever. I learned so much about the times back then. I didn't know OG Craig was so close to Bunchy Carter and had run-ins with Karenga, and was locked up with Geronimo Pratt and went to San Quinn not too long after George Jackson and the Solidad Brothers. OG Craig was surrounded by so much Black History, beyond just the streets and the gangs and the formation of the sets. This was beyond all of that.
Craig Munson had respect for Big Tookie like a little brother 💯💯💯 Classic Hawks flying in the middle of the interview was like the ancestors watching 🙏 Much Respect to Tow Trucc for sharing this untold history....
This interview and Monster Kody and Lil Doc are the best interviews Kev Mac conducted. Three different guys who were able to tell stories like an author
Dope Vlog Bro KM ! OG Munson was in between the Social Change of Blaq Nationalism & The War on the Blaq Community. OG Munson put his Stamp of Authenticity on Bro. Jimel Barnes .. great video.
Great series and tons of insight from a South LA Legend dare I say Icon. Mr. Craig Munson thank you for your insight, knowledge and experience of life in the late 50s and into the 60s, 70s and the early 80s. Not only did you work out with the Legendary Tookie to Mr. Hollywood Arnold S. Don’t flex in the pic Craig-he did anyway. To me it’s incredible how all these guys are tied together. From Bird, Bunchy Carter to Big Craig Munson, Raymond Washington to Tookie and can’t forget OG Cutes. This is how you know the stories about the History of the Crips is true. Plus he mentioned Jamel Barnes as well and that just speaks for himself. I love hearing about working out and his diet and then the Extras just to get a little more cut. I love hearing about Arkansas and that’s where my Moms from. Anyway much thanks Mr. Craig Munson, Baby Smac-you are appreciated a lot and no doubt. Thanks once again Big Kev Mac!! Peace!! #Salute!!
Big Willie Robinson, he drove the Hemi "King Daytona" & his wife Tomiko drove the "Queen Daytona". Only her Daytona is still around, it got "sympathetically" restored, his has never been located/found
Shit a few years ago hardly anyone knew Cutes everybody said he must have been PC and was lying about history. Feels so good to hear the homies name popping up consistently. Real crip!

The female is actually bigger.
Love how he said “That’s a Hawk! Koool!“
And all hawks glide on air currents wtf
These interviews with Monson motivated me to start back buffing.
