stout shall we eat don't breakfast
against the see the game's wrong
home for the Southside what he needs to
do is cracking it
that's why I write what do we tell our
kids about particular
genius our
they're sold
- its way like two
yeah
you know I got me working on it
yeah we're hard
no block you know that's like the
neighborhood
as igb of luck and like o clock that's a
block
like a block neighborhood look and
Chicago you know you got you got to get
you got the beauties black recycling so
you know
we hunted is just another way of saying
black disciples and GBE everyone Android
you know is an organization divided
front of lacking cycles as far as all
the heart and some in his fortunes
didn't didn't necessarily originate
with music you know started this history
or whatever but all art as he
started rapping when I got with DJ Chen
they start a rap and they just you know
just transcended a DJ can is a Japanese
hip-hop aficionado who accidentally
discovered that three honey
Cole discovered him wandering their
block Inglewood instead of rolling him
they took him in and Ken taught them the
ropes of the studio eventually producing
some of Keith's earliest tracks
he's the drill music mr. Miyagi just as
DJ can inspired Keith and the three Hana
to give up Street for music their
success has inspired countless other
Chicago gangs to try to turn their guns
into rap shares
mgs are another South Side gang from a
terrifying neighborhood called the
village who are trying to break into the
hip-hop industry and try their hand at
music instead of crimes
[Music]
if you listen to mts music you don't
hear no facesheet they're
talking about the lifestyle they trying
to have they're talking about what the
they been through they're talking
about what the they going through
they releasing a voice do they music
this is real
so you guys do around here the same
as anywhere except for the guns now how
tough is it like living like they're
today you have to deal with every
day
you need a fighting over
these block melon p.m. so getting
worse man we ruling is now you guys give
a little structure to you wind you see
my shooting videos in the crib
in a house all the time no that's
come from Chicago and the reason why we
do that in Chicago because of the
lifestyle some of us gotta be forced to
shoot in the career we can't
shoot a video on the block but that's
just hot in here like a tension proviso
like you think like police and stuff
will with you yeah they with
us because they with us because
they see now we ain't on the Block
selling no more drugs they see
they see we ain't doing under that
so now that they see we doing something
positive they want to come and try to
that up every time we shoot a video
they come with us
what the you with us for we
shooting a music
we're doing some positive if we got kids
involved right when they can get paid on
fun what's Ossetian
a group of kids going to play basketball
or hanging out that's fine we're
protecting them we want them to have a
good time
but when you have a group of people are
gonna be violent and hurt each other and
shoot people that's a game and they tell
you they're a gang they tell each other
as a gang they give gang signals they
mark up their neighborhood as a gang we
know who the gangs are our job is to
keep everybody safe whether you're a
gang member or a good person lives on
the block whether you're young or old
our job is to protect you okay so we do
that first
if the rappers are just shooting a video
and they're doing a law-abiding even if
their gang members they can do that if
they start doing anything wrong and we
are paid to take care of that and make
sure they stop
[Applause]
[Music]
morning we're back in Inglewood
last night's rap concert went well
everybody enjoyed themselves nobody shot
anybody it was I mean maybe that's
shitty of me to have expected going in
but it was actually a really good vibe
other than our buddies in the squad the
breakout star was a 14 year old kid
named young Trel anyway he's 14 we're
gonna go hang out with him hold his
first thing that's in studios
I was I was this age I just I was just
started to go into the studio about
three months ago well I never used to
tell my dad and none of my people's own
cuz I'd never thinking a happy like that
right and when I told them they kind of
made it happen funny this my dare I
already met her
I think in a second right this might be
coming to you I even helped me anything
this uh my cousin the this one just
walked away
bodybuilder this parts this fast I said
I'll be posted on my blog I see it up
quick he get shot from your
I get taught a lot of headshots body
strap if I - that'd be great laudanum I
was I said link a lot of people don't
want those shoes before you know that's
from here because this is different life
is it like you can say a lot of places
can relate to Chicago but it's only one
shy right some people might get the
wrong impression on me just cause the
way I rap I'm not seeing like go through
all that or what I rap it about that's
how yeah I'm just saying this I really
is out her what do you guys think of
Chief Keef and uh this is cruel well it
ain't really what we think I think I
think that they made history you might
not have a million dollars you might not
have a big label behind you might not
have none of that but at the same time
you can go hard you get you can give it
a hundred and ten percent and hopefully
get your neighborhood value and things
can change however not everybody in the
Chicago rap scene is thrilled with Keef
or the tales of gritty Chicago street
violence he's built his career on I'm
here just kind of try to learn as much
as I can about what's been going on
Chicago especially through the music
that's all the way I hear it's just like
Chief Keef songs stuff you know just cuz
I got dress I'm nothing like you
all the kids from here they minds is
still influenced by what they learn from
the streets of Chicago if I actually
lost my son on the gun violence looks
like I got shot nine times 15 I got a
real mural on my back and all the guys
and women did I lost what's at the
bottom of the wall that's my son on my
trail
