Skip was dropping great knowledge about our hometown. Stand up, Detroit. 313 ! All day.

[@ShootersShitzShow]

Anyone that ever makes a comment comparing Al Profit to Vlad bumped there head. Al was raised in Detroit he’s from the D and he’s got a ton of respect here from the old true real Gs of the history of Detroit even the younger generation shows love. Keep it up G you already know you got our city behind you…… He literally interviews every single real one that all the stories are actually about. Royal Oak township is where I went to school at Grant elementary and our principle Mr. Brown literally was like 6 ft 4 or so if you acted up in school my man would snatch you right up take you in the bathroom or the office lift you up in the air shake you up or literally pull out a paddle yo and send you right back to your class. I remember sitting in class at Grant when the space shuttle challenger was on tv and we watched it blow up. Man if only people knew about those days it would blow your minds how this metro Detroit area really the entire Tri county area in Michigan was like YBI changed the game by far yo kids buying a Benz with cash not used brand new literally couldn’t wear triple fat goose or Kangol hats at our schools because you didn’t want to get took people from here they know what’s up simple facts back then we lived in a generation that all of this stuff today had tried to live up to that’s impossible to do. Mongo so right about Hollywood having it all flipped around great interview

Detroit’s history reminds me of D.C.’s in certain ways. Of course Detroit is much bigger and had other things to offer as well as on a grander scale. But both are a black Mecca

[@realtalk6195]

You should consider updating the title to _Detroit Black Mafia (Young Boys Inc): Skip Mongo Legendary Family_ There's also some punctuation problems in your description box. I first thought your guest was a hairdresser, which is actually his brother's business I assume. There's also the earlier Detroit Black Mafia (Murder Row) and the later Black Mafia Family, and the original Black Mafia (Philadelphia Black Mafia) and its successor the Junior Black Mafia. PBM spanned 1968 to mid-1980s. JBM spanned 1985 to late-1990s. DMR spanned 1974 to late-1970s. YBI spanned 1978 to mid-1980s.

[@alprofit]

Ybi was an organization. A group of families involved in crime that was a de facto Black Mafia dates from the 1950's. Understand the difference.
