Great breakdown by Melvin Farmer on how the Wedtside Sets started. Not being from the Land gives me a better breakdown of the Original Westside Sets and once again no matter what interview you watch l always hear the name... Hoover. Hearing about how the Eight Tray's and 60s formed is the most interesting fact Melvin brought to the table. I just can't get enough of this South LA Tribe History. Thanks OG Melvin Farmer-Props!!!

Hoover is the main reason why Crips split up. If you from LA hoover got enemies on all sides and their location make them enemy to Bloods, Crips and ESE hoods. Only true Hoover ally is Shotgun and 83 Gangster and Longbeach. HOOVER, is before crip but they grimey. 100s strong now but remember, 107 is 1 set against all of the 100s. Takes allot to do that. 112 hoover is extinct, Licks been serving them. 90 NH is a really A hoover set that went rouge . 83 warring with them now hard. Hoovers really pushed them selves in on allot of sets because of their size. Either you turn Hoover or your not. Most people forget that on the Eastside, once the ECC got established, they got them out of their. ECC got hella numbers too. Also the Swans pushed 74 hoover out of Freemont, 40s also big hoover killers. 40s is the strongest NH crip today.

[@Rashawn_Bmore]

Damn so 40's is stronger then the 60's & Harlem 30's??

[@SuperbNProsper]

I would Say Hoover’s & The 100s Feuding was the Start. & then 60s & ETG beefing made the Divide grow more with people pretty much choosing sides of NH & Gangster . Shit was like a domino effect for Crip on Crip Beef

[@kano3030]

What makes me wonder is that tha 80s Crips was down wit 100s and NHOODS before Hoova came out but yet he said they was tha problem? Melvin went to jail and got out and started Gangsta Crip to play tha middle man gang between 100s and Hoova but yet they aligned themselves wit Hoova and not tha NHC whom he hung around wit first! Obviously he had a run in wit Hoovas in jail .... To this very day 83 Gangstas really don't even claim Crip cuz they know tha Original WestSide Crips are Originally 100s and UG NH BC ....
