O’Block is one of the most known sets in Chicago.
They’ve got big artists like Chief Keef and King Von who put on for them all over the world,
but they also roll deep with some of the most savage shooters in the city.
In 2017, a respected member of O’Block named T. Roy was killed.
His death made members of O’Block and 600 come together
to form one of the deadliest cliques in Chicago history:
The GetBackGang.
Let’s get right into it.
T. Roy was one of O’Block’s key members.
He was born and raised in the neighborhood, and jumped off the porch at a young age.
But what turned him into an assassin was when his homie Odee Perry got killed in 2011.
Odee was from Wiic City, which became O’Block after his death.
He was allegedly killed by K.I., a female shooter from STL/EBT,
as revenge for the death of a GD named Tooka.
T. Roy and King Von were both close to Odee, and his death turned them both into savages.
T. Roy allegedly caught his first body when he killed an STL/EBT affiliate named Baby Doc.
Then he took out another dude from the same set named Boss Trell.
Boss Trell was a major loss for the GDs, so when T. Roy allegedly took him out,
it made him a major target.
Over the next few years, T. Roy became one of O’Block’s main shooters.
Some people say he shot at over 30 dudes and is responsible for at least seven murders.
But on February 15th, 2017,
his opps caught him lacking and he was allegedly killed by a dude named TB.
TB was from a GD set called Tyquan World, who was known to beef with O’Block.
On the day he got killed, T. Roy was allegedly out hunting for TB,
but was spotted by his opps before he could find him.
According to rumors, FBG Duck’s older brother FBG Brick
spotted T. Roy and gave TB his location.
So, TB was able to get the drop on him first.
T. Roy’s death was a huge loss for O’Block.
He was one of their most well-loved members and top shooters.
After he died, his brother HK formed the Get Back Gang
and kicked off one of the most violent beefs in the history of Chicago.
King Von was in prison at the time T. Roy was killed.
They were close as brothers.
So, revenge was the only thing on Von’s mind.
Everyone knew that a war was brewing.
A dude from 600 named Booka put the whole city on alert when he tweeted
“Y’all don’t know the half of what’s finna transpire.”
The opps might have gotten T. Roy, but his homies were about to make them regret it.
But before GBG could get to work, the BDs lost another member named Bob-O.
He was one of the top shooters from THF46,
a BD set allied with O’Block and 600.
Just six hours after he posted bail for a murder charge,
Bob-O was allegedly killed by Drilla and Montana from 051 Young Money,
a set of the Micky Cobras.
At this point, GBG was ready to shoot every opp on sight no matter what set they repped.
The first body they allegedly caught was a dude from Jaro City named Lil Ho.
Gleesh, Edogg, Duke, and T. Roy’s brother HK were hunting for opps in Jaro territory.
When they saw Lil Ho on the street,
they let off shots without hesitation and made the GetBackGang official.
After the hit,
Edogg let everyone know that they were just getting started when he tweeted
“Summer 2k17 Lotta GetBackGang Shyt Boutta Be Goin On
#ItsGonnaBeAColdAssSummer.”
One week later,
Makado and CapFck12 from 600 ran up on Jamo from MOB and shot him to death.
Then, HK and Duke supposedly caught an opp from Tyquan World a month later.
They were roaming around in enemy territory when they saw a dude named Poppie.
That’s when HK allegedly hopped out and shot him in the head,
earning him the nickname Headshot King.
According to rumors,
the next hit came when O’Block and 600 were sliding in STL/EBT’s turf.
They saw FBG Brick and his cousin Coby Mac walking down the street
and pulled up next to them.
Coby walked up to see who was in the car, then Gleesh and CapFck12
allegedly started letting off shots.
Brick tried to run off, but Trey 5 and HK chased him down and killed him.
Killing Brick was massive for GBG.
After the hit, they mocked Brick on social media and made it clear
that he wasn’t gonna be the last opp they took out.
EDogg tweeted “#ItsGonnaBeAhColdAssSummer.”
A few months later, HK finally got revenge on the dude who killed his brother
and started GetBackGang’s brutal killing spree.
On September 26th, 2017, HK, Gleesh, and Makado
allegedly tracked down the location of TB from Tyquan World.
TB was with another dude named Side, and both of them got hit in the head.
Side survived, but TB died at the scene.
GBG finally had payback for T. Roy’s death,
but that wasn’t enough.
At this point, it was like O’Block and their allies were trying to wipe out the whole city.
Chicago was always violent,
but GetBackGang was dropping bodies like nobody had ever seen.
Two days after TB’s murder, Edogg, Makado, and Gleesh
killed a dude from Jaro City named Fredeo.
Three days before the TB hit, Edogg tweeted
“#GetBackOnTheWay JustWatch.”
GBG wasn’t just hitting the opps on sight,
they were posting their moves on social media for everyone to see.
They ain’t care if the opps saw them coming,
they thought they could step on anyone in their way.
By this point, GBG looked like they was untouchable.
It was like they could kill anyone they wanted, whenever they wanted.
STL/EBT, Jaro City, and Tyquan World wasn’t really even fighting back.
O’Block and 600 were rolling so deep that no one wanted smoke with them.
But things changed when Wooski from STL/EBT, Lil Cho from Tyquan World,
and Skinny from Jaro City decided to link up
and take out one of the deadliest shooters in GetBackGang.
Skinny, Wooski, and Lil Cho had all lost homies to GetBackGang,
and they got tired of being hunted in their own territory.
According to rumors, the three of them rolled up to O’Block and saw HK
standing outside the gates.
He saw them coming and tried to run inside, but he got hit and fell down.
Then Lil Cho, Skinny, and Wooski allegedly finished him.
A few days before HK was killed, he jumped into the comments on Skinny’s IG Live
and taunted him about TB’s death.
Skinny and TB were very close,
so HK dissing him on social media made him an even bigger target for Skinny.
After HK died, Skinny posted a caption on his IG story that said
“All Hk Wanted Was Be T Roy Now He With Him.”
HK was the most hated opp for STL/EBT, Jaro City, and Tyquan World.
And after he died, all of them started celebrating on social media.
HK paid his opps back for the death of his brother, but in the end he was caught too.
Before T. Roy died, HK wasn’t really in the streets.
But his brother’s death forced his hand and he got revenge.
Even though they lost one of their top dudes, GBG wasn’t finished.
One night Duke, Muwop, and Edogg were allegedly out looking for a dude
from STL/EBT named CantGetRight.
CantGetRight had allegedly killed two popular members from O’Block back in 2016,
Cheno and Big A.
Someone told Edogg and his homies that CantGetRight was outside a store
in STL/EBT territory, so they slid through and rushed him.
Can’t Get Right was shot in the back as he tried to run away
and an innocent bystander was also shot and killed.
Then the two shooters emptied their clip into CantGetRight while he was on the ground.
One day before the hit, Edogg tweeted
“It’s Gon Be Ah Cold Ass Summer,”
which let everyone know that 2018 was going to be the same as 2017.
Then King Von and a bunch of other O’Block members
started dissing CantGetRight on social media.
Next up on GetBackGang’s hit list
was a dude named Dooski from MOB.
DQ from O’Block and CapFck12
allegedly saw him while they were riding around the city and killed him on sight.
But the next day, MOB had their own get back
when they took out a dude from 600 named Waldo.
Wooski was one of GetBackGang’s biggest opps after he allegedly took out HK,
and the plan they cooked up to take him out was like something out of a movie.
The dudes from GBG knew that Wooski would be at Dooski’s funeral,
and they knew it was their best chance to catch him.
Before the funeral, Edogg and Von hopped on facetime with Wooski and told him
“We will surprise you,”
and a few days later they made moves.
During the funeral, O’Block members pulled up to kill Wooski
and whoever else they could hit.
They started dumping shots into the crowd.
The opps shot back, and all of a sudden there was a shootout going on broad day.
Wooski sent shots at DQ, but DQ hit him in the head
and then ran back to the car.
When it was all over, six people got shot but all of them survived - including Wooski.
This was the last major GBG operation.
Most of them kept on putting work in the streets, but it wasn’t an all-out war like before.
For a while, it seemed like they were invincible,
but then the opps started catching bodies too
and proved that one or two sets can’t just link up and run the whole city
without taking losses of their own.
In 2020, King Von was shot and killed after getting into a fight
with Quando Rondo in Atlanta.
His death was the biggest loss O’Block had taken in a long time,
but it wasn’t even opps from Chicago who ended up killing him.
A couple of months before Von’s death, FBG Duck was killed
while he was out shopping in the wealthy Gold Coast neighborhood of Chicago.
Two cars full of shooters pulled up and started letting off shots,
killing Duck in broad daylight.
At first, no one knew who was behind the hit.
Duck was one of the most popular GDs in the city,
and he had plenty of enemies who wanted him dead.
But in 2021,
O’Block members Muwop, C-Thang, C Murder, and Los
was charged for his death in a RICO indictment.
Duck’s mother said that another dude from O’Block named Zell Munna was involved too,
but he committed suicide before the charges were brought against him.
By this point, Trey 5 was already locked up,
and was allegedly kicked out for snitching on Makado.
600 was never as deep as O’Block, and they took a lot of heavy losses too.
So GetBackGang lost a lot of their main dudes in a very short time.
Some GBG affiliates are still out sliding today, but it’s not the same as 2017 and 2018.
After T. Roy was killed, GetBackGang went on a spree
where they allegedly caught nine bodies in about a year and only lost two of their own.
No one had ever seen anything like it, and GBG had everyone watching their backs.
They were ready to crash out at any time, anywhere,
but that mentality ended up getting a lot of them killed or locked up.
Chicago remains one of the wildest cities in America,
and it seems like the war in the streets might never end.
So many bodies have been dropped on both sides
that there’s almost no chance these dudes move on
without getting revenge for the homies they’ve lost.
So unless something changes, it’s only a matter of time until the next get back.
