I heard about this situation from all of my OG’s. They said that the Jamaican guys came to DC trying to take over. But the DC natives was not allowing it to happen that easy. They said that the Jamaican’s was no joke, they came ready to K!LL. It was a tough time back then, from what I was told. Respect to DC for holding they’re ground, Condolences to all that lost their life during that time…
Lost a GREAT brother in that situation up NW DC..RIP MIKE..BUT yes they came and SOLIDERS made them Jamaicans AWARE that NO SUCKERS was in the town..PERIOD
I was in jessup Maryland prison with a guy from the posse. He's a Muslim now, and taught me how to play soccer. Very humble guy, and I didn't know abt his past for abt 3 years until I read a don diva magazine. ✌❤
Yeah Slim. Another Banger. I'm from 14th street upt D.C but move to Landover. Me and my brother thought Maryland was sweet but learned fast it was hoods everywhere
@@getwoke1148 yup that voucher is exactly what we used. my mother thought she was moving us away from the hood lol. but staying in da city was probably better for us.
I was 13 and lived around Glenarden when this happened. They had the whole complex off the chain. My moms broke her lease to get away from there after a few months. It was crazy.
They was deep out Langley Park /Lanham basically Northern PG. I think a local comedian ran into them. Forgot his name but he mentioned it in a DJVlad interview.
Crazy, I was shot by them Oct 1987 at the McDonalds on Central Ave and Brightseat Rd, became one of my best jokes.. 3 months later they hit that apt. Shit was wild back then. Blessed to still be here God Bless all the fallen
I come from the other side of this. All my friends from Flatbush Brooklyn were Jamaicans. I remember in 1990 my friend’s little brother went out to DC to work for some local Jamaican crew. They didn’t get killed though but they didn’t stay out there that long.
The first I heard about DC was 90/91 from a chick who had to leave there and move back to NY. She told me it was super violent. RIP fallen soldiers and all innocents who got killed. 🙏🏾✌🏾
Same in philly they went to war with a organization out here that was called J.B.M get down or lay down. 90-92 trying to set up shop outside of the projects and certain hoods to cut dick. And steal customers
@@nightryda707 bro U slow if u think dc dudes was the one’s getting off they turned that whole city out everywhere they went they left blood if u ask them I bet they tell u dc was sweet compared to where they came from bro police got them out of dc or anywhere they went to they was priority bro dudes in the comments section don’t even know the story no dc dude that actually live through that era will say ya chased ‘‘em out of there because of a couple of body’s that’s completely false. Some of this clown dc dudes on here reppin they city like there is something going on there that isn’t goin in every inner city
@Bobby Flynn what your saying is a fact but the only thing is, I’ve said that in this video. I said “The posse’s had to worry about the locals, law enforcement, and other rival Posse’s… I also said they were vicious with the murders The proof is in the video with the guys that killed 5 people in in the apartment. Trust me I know they put work in
Glenarden side of Brightseat Rd. Not the Landover side. Maple Ridge Apartments. Right across the street from Landover Mall. Right next to Glenarden Apartments.
Jamaicans left their mark all over the East coast. I heard stories about them in Boston back in the 80s. They was ruthless and didn’t care about prison or death. If you wasn’t Jamaican, you was food in their eyes. They was beefing with the Cape Verdeans in Boston and it got ugly. If they didn’t get deported 20 at a time, they would be running a lot of shit on the East coast! Thing is they came from those political wars in Jamaican and were trained to kill. So they come out here and it was like taking candy from a baby until the locals started fighting back.
It's crazy how Philly n DC has similar stories when it comes to Street tales We had beef with them shower posse Brothers in the 80s when the jbm junior Black Mafia chased them out of Philly and shut them down. They was trying to run through Philly but we wasn't having it get down to lay down.

I use to hustle in that neighborhood back then it was called village in the woods directly across the street from Landover mall. Back then it wasn't no IHOP only hot shops. Shit even I got shot 7 times
From 88 - 90, DC and parts of PG were a damn killing zone shit was off the chains.

Nice Work Bruh Keep Em Coming 💯 I’m From BrightSeat Rd ( Glenarden Apartments) Of course they torn down the hood it was wild out there…I’m a lil too young for the Jamaicans era but I heard some crazy stories from my OGs
I was 12/13 at this time living in Landover about 3 miles from where this happened! The whole DMV was a war zone back then….I remember a day at Columbia Park rec, some guys from DC threatened to kill Jay Bias and take him across DC line to add to the murder rate! I was scared out my mind! Still have PTSD from growing up in the DMV.
They tried to take over philly around the same time. Didn’t end good for them. Shower posse I think they were called it was a big war in philly around 90 92. Got to give it to them crazy ass Jamaicans tho they was coming back just as hard
They came to DC in the mid to late 80's....they couldn't fist fight at all🤣, but they would fire that nine quick....they were too damn wild,and gradually dissappeared....city under siege would show most of the murder scenes,after the 10 o'clock news....Aye, I Never thought this would be on the fckn internet

The posse is an old dinosaur story, I'm from NYC where they were heaviest, they don't exist anymore, their story stops at 1991, there's no stories after that. Delroy uzi Edwards is in prison crying into a 30 year sentence, never coming home, someone did a recent video how he's trying to keep sane due to boredom in supermax ,not worth it,he probably didn't even ball a full 5 maybe 3,4 years most. The black mob from Philly said their clowns because they all snitched while black mob stood tall, streets is wack
If JBM still exist. If cosa nostra still exist. If ms-13 still exist. Shower posse is still alive & well. The problem is black Americans are so used to sloppy street culture, that if your not making the news or making rap videos about the people u murder and the money u make, MFS assume u got no motion or you died out. Silence as secrecy are a forgotten art. Not everybody wants to be seen and validated. Keep thinking a Jamaican Mafia that stretched across 3 continents just "died" out lol and NY was not the heaviest headquarters for the posse it was FLORIDA. Go sit down somewhere
Big up yourself, your narrative is on point. The notorious SP. An the British link up. Dangerous set of Yaad man. On the other hand, got my headphones on couple rolled enjoying your video. 😤💨💨💯👊🏿
@Festus Aniemeka lmao you must be a Shower Posse Cheerleader look here slim it’s been well documented that them bammas were in with the CIA how the hell do you think they were coming into play with high powered American assault weapons plus them niggas were snitching as well. I’m from Trinidad NE born and raised don’t believe the hype that these dudes just came into local areas just praying upon local residents and streets crews like Robocop trust me them Jakes tried but failed yeah they tried to muscle there way in and it cost them a lot of deaths by trying 💯

I remember this …..the DMV was never as violent as it is until the Jamaicans started pumping around here,after them? Shit it’s still going on….I remember the name “Kirk Bruce” to this day for some reason
They had members all over United States including places like Alaska I wouldn’t be surprised if they were in all 50 states they also had members in Canada and England aswell
My brother was one of the person that was killed Donnie if fuck me up for years because I was the one he talked too and than he left the house I wouldn't have thought that would have been the last time that I see my brother continue to rest peaceful my brother love you

@@stldsfine there was one guy that were looking for them. I have the news article, I’ll probably talk about it on part 2, but he didnt get to them - the feds caught him and locked him up with some guns. He was trying to do some damage
The feds were on the Jamaicans in the late 80s and were busting the operations all over that's why they didn't flood DC I'm have an all-out War unless the real it was the Jamaicans remove the Italia's Italians from the drug game

Yea DC always been treacherous. New York, Baltimore, Dc and Philly were some cities that you couldn’t just go to and set up shop like some other places. You couldn’t even go there to party if you was flashy and nobody knew you. You would get robbed eventually and you would be lucky if you didn’t get smoked.
I was born n raised around Mayfair in NE DC & I remember my folks used to tell me stories about da Jamaicans back in da 80$... I remember when da Nation of Islam used to secure the neighborhood in da 90$
Peace,I tell niggas all the time,out of everybody that came to try and take over our project the Jamaicans was the only ones to have a little success,this real rap,last day of school in 89',we get off the school bus it's a nigga in the middle of the street busting a shot gun,I seen a lot of shit growing up,but for a unknown nigga to be doing that shit in J.Ward was unheard of,they had bt a 2 month run,but niggas was at they ass,the main nigga name was small man,don't know if that really was his name but that's what we called him,I seen niggas flip his car shooting it up,that nigga got out the car and said,u can't kill me,the run was coming to a end at that point, Richmond,Va.was approaching murder cap the next year,but them niggas were smart they ended up not far from our project in these apt.nobody hung in,they were ragged as hell,but that's were they ended up at,was to easy to get at them then,real life
@@nightryda707 these are foot soldiers groups of ten, u all have stories but it ain’t that deep. the feds dealt with the yardies, we don’t run from war.
I'm from 14th and Newton DC uptown I grew up around that time and we stood our ground back then if u had dreads u were a target dats why when I got lock up in 2000 did 5 yrs in feds yungins from city coming in wit dreads talking about dat was da style. I was shocked when I went in u got killed if u had dreads
The issues in DC - unlike NY - is that there are relatively small immigrant groups and most of them hail from the elite (they’re in DC for diplomacy/government/international affairs), so the poorer elements can’t blend in like NY and don’t have a native client base for the drug game. Thus they resort to trying to work into DC’s native black population and forget to play by those rules and get got! That’s not to say those Jamaicans, Panamanians and PR were not thorough dudes - they was just totally outnumbered and didn’t know the lay of the land so they had nowhere to run when shit got hot.
Uzi Edwards recently came up on one of these hood channels, he's crying, going somewhat crazy in prison from boredom, these guys are not to be idolized, wasted life, in 30 years so far, balled out probably 3,4 years at most
I remember back in the mid 80's early 90's when the Jamaicans tried to take over in Richmond Virginia that didn't end so well. Don't get me wrong they bodied niggaz too but majority of them didn't make it
I think this statement is hilarious. I'm a Jamaican living in Richmond. In a Jamaican community. Living my best life 😂 y'all did nothing to us! Stop it 😭 Jackson Ward and Creighton court were the only projects that stood on Buisness everybody else welcomed Jamaicans with open arms we brought the cheap weed to every hood its Jamaican restaurants all over RVA. And now y'all letting the Mexican Mafia do the same thing lol
@Palo_ATG I totally agree with what you're saying not to stagnate others in thee process. Respect it goes a very long way even back then till now. It was a major drug war going on in thee streets. The crack epidemic which made it more worser. It destroyed a lot of neighborhoods families businesses communities. Let's talk about unity

Delroy uzi Edwards is in prison crying into a 30 year sentence, never coming home, someone did a recent video how he's trying to keep sane due to boredom in supermax ,not worth it,he probably didn't even ball a full 5 maybe 3,4 years most. The black mob from Philly said their clowns because they all snitched while black mob stood tall, streets is wack
Clown really
If JBM still exist. If cosa nostra still exist. If ms-13 still exist. Shower posse is still alive & well. The problem is black Americans are so used to sloppy street culture, that if your not making the news or making rap videos about the people u murder and the money u make, MFS assume u got no motion or you died out. Silence as secrecy are a forgotten art. Not everybody wants to be seen and validated. Keep thinking a Jamaican Mafia that stretched across 3 continents just "died" out lol and NY was not the heaviest headquarters for the posse it was FLORIDA. Go sit down somewhere
Big up yourself, your narrative is on point. The notorious SP. An the British link up. Dangerous set of Yaad man. On the other hand, got my headphones on couple rolled enjoying your video. 😤💨💨💯👊🏿
You forgot to say the shower posses were in with the CIA that’s why they had a lot of firepower. The CIA was training the Jamaicans in Jamaica 💯
Facts they were old muthafukas and we were teenagers
Bro quit with ur conspiracy theories them brothers jus wasn’t scared to die
😂😅😃😄 your killing me bro.
Nicaragua, Guatemala,Cold War, Gangs,Guns,Crack & now Jamaica. What isn't the CIA involved in? Lol 😅
@Festus Aniemeka lmao you must be a Shower Posse Cheerleader look here slim it’s been well documented that them bammas were in with the CIA how the hell do you think they were coming into play with high powered American assault weapons plus them niggas were snitching as well. I’m from Trinidad NE born and raised don’t believe the hype that these dudes just came into local areas just praying upon local residents and streets crews like Robocop trust me them Jakes tried but failed yeah they tried to muscle there way in and it cost them a lot of deaths by trying 💯
I remember when they came to Philly with that tough guy shit soon after anything
Rasta was getting killed
Cap 😂😂😂
It's always serious when you see newsman Walter can't remember his last name but the story must be very factual
They were also in Langley Park Maryland
Baltimore? I'm not familiar... I was born & raised in Baltimore, never heard of them. Learn something new every day! Thanks for the video!😊
In mid 90s Jamaicans were deep park heights. Back then Belvedere was weed strip
In the mid "80" the the "90"..Park heights was lil Kingston...Nuff yardmon. Rip Bumfree and lil Paul.
@@kaylatroutmantroutman2856 I was teenager 14 messing with them guys on grass like 95. I believe the ma or auntie had restaurant around there. The guys I knew been deported. They stayed Apts around ford's lane
@@jojofreelancer1210 thanks for the info!! I didn't know too much about Park Heights area until mid 90's but it's good to know! I was born & raised on the eastside. My Uncle was west he hung out with Lil Melvin. Lil Melvin actually spoke at his funeral.
@@kaylatroutmantroutman2856
This happened to O’Donnell heights bmore in the 90s ,
Another great video
Fabulous was said to have 100 bodies or close to it.
The rapper?
@@yessir8805 no there was a Jamaican shooter who had the nickname Fabolous
Jamaicans tried to take over every city they went to.
The real shottas
They weren't so tuff. If they were, they would've invaded Beverly Hills or somewhere like that instead of picking on their own.
Bro awesome content 💯
a lot of these dudes live in delaware now. BBS club !
I remember this …..the DMV was never as violent as it is until the Jamaicans started pumping around here,after them? Shit it’s still going on….I remember the name “Kirk Bruce” to this day for some reason
DAMN I DIDN’T KNOW THEY HAD MEMBERS IN DALLAS AND HOUSTON!!
A few in orleans i heard
They had members all over United States including places like Alaska I wouldn’t be surprised if they were in all 50 states they also had members in Canada and England aswell
@@Ddgjyfd Damn!
@@billpeart4809 THEM BOYS WAS DEEP FOR REAL!!
@@esimpson31828 💯
My brother was one of the person that was killed Donnie if fuck me up for years because I was the one he talked too and than he left the house I wouldn't have thought that would have been the last time that I see my brother continue to rest peaceful my brother love you
Sorry for your loss u will meet again
Great post 👍🏿
How the fuck do you survive 2 headshots??? Man what??!!! I believe in God even more for sure. 2 headshots???? People barely make it off 1. Blessings to her.
I was scared to death of the Jakes as a kid. They was tearing shit up in the dmv
Did anybody retaliate for the murders?
@@stldsfine there was one guy that were looking for them. I have the news article, I’ll probably talk about it on part 2, but he didnt get to them - the feds caught him and locked him up with some guns. He was trying to do some damage
@@stldsfineIM FROM DC,THE JAMICANS GOT KILLED AROUND MY WAY UPTOWN
Yeah but jakes got done dirty uptown, I mean really dirty
The feds were on the Jamaicans in the late 80s and were busting the operations all over that's why they didn't flood DC I'm have an all-out War unless the real it was the Jamaicans remove the Italia's Italians from the drug game
You must weren't informed about Langley Park.....
“Mayfair don’t play fair”
Wow I remember this time in the DMV
I use to live in Mayfair the Jamaicans had beef with the NY black guys down Mayfair in the mid 80's the Muslims moved them out but the Jamaicans were everywhere when I was a lil jit
The NOI made em step off 😁👍🏿
Fun fact Minister Farrakhan’s father is a Jamaican 😆
@@JigziPep never 👎 knew that u learn something new every day I appreciate you. But them NOI members didn’t play that 💩 in N.E. It was stop 🛑 pushing drugs or die
@@JigziPep hold for real?
@@davesylvindeckerii4528 I don’t remember his last name or which parish he was from but check the Mutabaruka interview with Farrakhan where they talked about it
@@JigziPep ok then
I rembrr styn n stone lake and the Jamaicans came threw ther sound lik a war zone out ther tht day
At this time they did this in all major cities they did the same where I'm from Dallas,Tx but we ran most of em out and the ones we didn't the Feds picked up
I’m from Atlanta I didn’t know Dc was getting down like this until I watched this channel don’t get me wrong I know it go down anywhere but damn
Yea DC always been treacherous. New York, Baltimore, Dc and Philly were some cities that you couldn’t just go to and set up shop like some other places. You couldn’t even go there to party if you was flashy and nobody knew you. You would get robbed eventually and you would be lucky if you didn’t get smoked.
U must be 35 yrs old or under
@@Mytho17 29
You must be like 20 years old DC been off the hook
@@jkkennedy8919 nah 30 I’m from Ga I never been that way
Back then Landover md was called baby se
My mother and them told me the story they say DC held it down 💎💪🏾💯💯💯
I was born n raised around Mayfair in NE DC & I remember my folks used to tell me stories about da Jamaicans back in da 80$... I remember when da Nation of Islam used to secure the neighborhood in da 90$
The Kirk Bruce at 7:04 looks completely different from the one in the lineup with the other two guys.
I said the same thing. 👍🏽
The downside is every dude in the street seems to move dumb. Egos is the downfall
Kirk Was Serious About His Work 🎯
Peace,I tell niggas all the time,out of everybody that came to try and take over our project the Jamaicans was the only ones to have a little success,this real rap,last day of school in 89',we get off the school bus it's a nigga in the middle of the street busting a shot gun,I seen a lot of shit growing up,but for a unknown nigga to be doing that shit in J.Ward was unheard of,they had bt a 2 month run,but niggas was at they ass,the main nigga name was small man,don't know if that really was his name but that's what we called him,I seen niggas flip his car shooting it up,that nigga got out the car and said,u can't kill me,the run was coming to a end at that point, Richmond,Va.was approaching murder cap the next year,but them niggas were smart they ended up not far from our project in these apt.nobody hung in,they were ragged as hell,but that's were they ended up at,was to easy to get at them then,real life
Damn that’s crazy bro! I heard about the Jamaican stories as a teen in the 90’s but I had no clue it was that serious in the 80’s!💪🏽💯
Small Man 😂 classic Jamaican name back then. Respect my yute.
I heard about that bro Richmond was wild in the80's and 90's.
Ok da JWARD in here yea I remember they tried it
@@nightryda707 these are foot soldiers groups of ten, u all have stories but it ain’t that deep. the feds dealt with the yardies, we don’t run from war.
Can't wait for next one
Was enough money for everyone, violence made it difficult.
Did you hear about the one where 1989 over in the Langston lane area when one of two Jamaican brothers got shot in the head
I'm from 14th and Newton DC uptown I grew up around that time and we stood our ground back then if u had dreads u were a target dats why when I got lock up in 2000 did 5 yrs in feds yungins from city coming in wit dreads talking about dat was da style. I was shocked when I went in u got killed if u had dreads
How strange!....Every MFkers now has dreads. Ain't that some shyt.
Am at the apartments right now 😂😭🤨
The 90s was dangerous
The issues in DC - unlike NY - is that there are relatively small immigrant groups and most of them hail from the elite (they’re in DC for diplomacy/government/international affairs), so the poorer elements can’t blend in like NY and don’t have a native client base for the drug game. Thus they resort to trying to work into DC’s native black population and forget to play by those rules and get got! That’s not to say those Jamaicans, Panamanians and PR were not thorough dudes - they was just totally outnumbered and didn’t know the lay of the land so they had nowhere to run when shit got hot.
Kirk Bruce look serious
He was - very.
and delroy uzi edwards was in dc wen he came to da us
Uzi Edwards recently came up on one of these hood channels, he's crying, going somewhat crazy in prison from boredom, these guys are not to be idolized, wasted life, in 30 years so far, balled out probably 3,4 years at most
I remember back in the mid 80's early 90's when the Jamaicans tried to take over in Richmond Virginia that didn't end so well. Don't get me wrong they bodied niggaz too but majority of them didn't make it
I think this statement is hilarious. I'm a Jamaican living in Richmond. In a Jamaican community. Living my best life 😂 y'all did nothing to us! Stop it 😭 Jackson Ward and Creighton court were the only projects that stood on Buisness everybody else welcomed Jamaicans with open arms we brought the cheap weed to every hood its Jamaican restaurants all over RVA. And now y'all letting the Mexican Mafia do the same thing lol
@Palo_ATG I totally agree with what you're saying not to stagnate others in thee process. Respect it goes a very long way even back then till now. It was
a major drug war going on in thee streets. The crack epidemic which made it more worser. It destroyed a lot of neighborhoods families businesses communities. Let's talk about unity
@antonioharris2753 let's talk unity family. I'm about improving OUR community in any way I can. Anytime you wanna build or bounce ideas I'm here especially if your still in RVA I need all the help and assistance I can get. RVA was the Harlem Of the South it's time we get back to that. HIGH time we get back to that. Peace and love family
@@Shade_ATG I grew up Richmond my whole entire life 47 years old. I've been through a lot even saw a lot. Just like any other state city or hood it's all thee same. We need to stop glorifying thee bad & focus more on thee good. A lot of lives they were lost in these streets physically as well as mentally. It all started over pettyness dumb 💩 foolishness. My point from thee beginning of my post exactly
I don't care who you are D.c natives is not accepting outsiders coming in and violate
What about alpo
Funny thing is nowadays DC natives are getting pushed out lowkey, it's not because of gangs tho this time but gentrification lmao... A bunch been moving to pg and surrounding areas.
@@billpeart4809 😅😅😅
@@billpeart4809 alpo came in good peace, brought the plug to some guys put money in pockets all he asked was for the dc guys to keep him protected while every1 eat… other hoods was tryna take po down 💯🤐
Yet it’s being gentrified everyday.
He is up Cumberland rite now.
Wci Or North branch🤔
@@baltimorebikelife7134 not sure, I wNt to say north branch but it might be western. I'll ask the homey
Man, i could tell you some real stories about what happened.
Dmv is whooping Jamaica's shii but ms13 is still my Langley park
