Part 1: Neckbone on How Mob Piru Formed, Origin of Beef Blood & Crip Beef in Compton
--------
In a recent interview, Neckbone opened up about Suge Knight’s conviction and 28-year prison sentence for the fatal hit-and-run death of Terry Carter, a founding member of the OG Piru Bloods. The incident stemmed from an altercation involving Knight attempting to negotiate over his portrayal in the NWA movie, which escalated into violence. Neckbone described Terry Carter as an original and respected figure in the street and Bloods community, expressing sympathy for the tragedy. He believes the incident was accidental but acknowledges it was poorly handled, fueled by the “everyone wants to be hard” mentality ingrained in that environment. Vlad and Neckbone also discussed how Suge Knight’s notorious reputation likely influenced the harsh sentence. Neckbone emphasized the importance of learning from past mistakes, praising newer artists from similar backgrounds, like Kendrick Lamar and TDE, for avoiding the violence and focusing on success.
