I love how respectful the old school real OGs speak and carry themselves. That's something that got lost in translation and missing from the young generation. The loss of respect and "acting hard" is what became the start of rampant and prolific violence. Back in the day, even gangsters had their own code of respect.

Of course black on black crime should not be celebrated. And Melvin has more than certainly paid for his crimes. But i am not talking about that. I'm talking about a person i knew that you didn't. In every young person there are good and bad qualities. I saw the good qualities in Melvin even as a teenager; who would stand against his father who was committing black on black crime in abuse against his own mother. If that don't take guts i don't know what does. There are other qualities i saw as well. Part of being helpful to the black community requires the ability to see potential in individuals who are living in less than ideal situations and circumstances, without a good father, without older brothers who could set a good example. This how God sees us. This is how He saw me. He saw what i could become even when i was committing foolishness and did not write me off, but re-channeled my energies in a positive direction. And Melvin certainly has done that by using his voice against gang violence. And truly, he can be more effective than you nor i could ever be, because he's been there done that. It would be more helpful, rather than being quick to condemn those who are now committing black on black crime, to rather develope relationships with them, to see whatever good is there, and motivate them in the right direction. The difference between Melvin and i was that I was able to come out of that life sooner, because someone recognized gifts and talents in me that i was not aware of, and told me i was special. I believe that's how God sees all of us even in our ignorance and foolishness, he takes all factors into consideration. Why? Because he knows us. He knows what we can become. Two things i knew about Melvin was that he had courage and he was smart. I knew he was special. I didnt know how to guide him in that awareness because I myself was in the same boat. I was told as a child by my own mother, "I should have flushed you down the toilet." But at some point in my late teens early adult years someone told me i was special. And i was motivated to obtain at least three degrees and dedicate my life in service to my community. The same community as a child where i participated in unlawful acts in my ignorance. Yet years later Melvin has written a book, "The New Slaveship". I haven't any book as yet. He has helped to quell gang violence far more effectively than i ever could. Because he was not perhaps as fortunate as i was to be influenced away from that life sooner, nevertheless, I know the man, and in conversation with him now and is actively doing what can to prevent others from walking in the same path that he walked in the same communities where we grew up. So believe that Melvin can still be celebrated, not because of the sins he committed in the folly of his youth, but because of what has done to turn his life around and help others do same. Plus he is alive and well. God must have him here for a reason.

Kenny G - He most likely was once a crackhead, but not Necessarly by the term of using drugs, because that term crackhead was used way before the drug nickname crack was ever thought of matter of fact people who are on the drug was called that because they seem to be as a crackhead, but the term crackhead was orginal ment to define some who lack a mental capacity of knowledge, intelligent, no sense, dumb, or just plan ole stupid

Very articulate; seems to be a true historian: very informative!

Great Interview

One of my favorite interviews real talk

I love hearing from OG's they be so smooth with it and real💙💙💙🖤

Wow, when he mentioned The IVC’s at Imperial and Crenshaw, it gave me a chill because I grew up in Inglewood on 112th and Crenshaw. On the North side of Imperial it was Bloods. South of Imperial was Imperial Village Crips. Probably the worst beating I experienced was at the hands of IVCs back in late 1979

For a guy who dropped out in sixth grade he speaks highly intelligent etc. He's def got that O.G. vibe type cat you can just and listen to his stories for hours . Bless this man he survived the start of the crips he survived the crack era and the 90s when Gangbanging was the most viscous ( well I dunno at least they had some sort of code back then ,these young cats just going wild with the shit , but they were def violent and crazy decades ) this man seen some shit . Thanks for telling your story Mr. Farmer .
