Comedian Faizon Love had a lot to say about New York rapper Dave East and his alleged ties to the Crips during an interview back in September. Love went as far as calling East “a fake crip” and questioned why an OG like MC Eiht would give the Harlem rapper a pass. It doesn’t look like Love is done talking about East as he recently spoke about the rapper and his comments during an interview with VladTV.
At around the 4:00 mark, the comedian agreed with Compton rapper B.G. Knocc Out, who questioned why Love cared about East’s Crip affiliations during his own VladTV interview.
“Listen I saw what B.G. said, and I texted him, and I was like ‘nigga you right. I’m 52 why do I give a fuck if he’s a real crip or not’,” Love said. “But it’s in me, and it’s not on me. I don’t know if you know what that means. It’s apart of our real culture.”
Love went on to give an OG lesson to East and all the other rappers he thinks are falsely claiming a gang as their own. According to the comedian, if someone wants to go out in public and say they’re apart of a gang, he hopes they’re ready for everything that comes with that life, including rival gang members.
“You can’t just say something,” Love added. “Once you put that out there you’re letting people know. So I’m not your worst guy, your worst problem is a young brother coming up from ESP, a real blood, catching you and that’s it.”
“You can’t rap when he comes up,” Love continued. “‘I’m from ESP Piru. What it do?’ If you banging, that’s what banging is. You don’t aspire to be a gang member. You’re from that set, you grow up, you don’t really grow out of it. It’s always apart of you.”
All this commotion started when Love was a guest on The Hip Hop Podcast show and mentioned East while airing his grievances with fellow comedian Katt Williams. After Love questioned MC Eiht’s cosign of East, the legendary West Coast rapper issued a response during his interview with HipHopDX.
“He ain’t called out Snoop or J Stone who also has songs and videos with my nigga [laughs],” Eiht tells HipHopDX. “I guess I’m the lil nigga so it’s all good. I did a song with an artist and a homie, period, verifying his gang affiliation is my now job. My nigga J Stone and Snoop fuck with Dave, but I’m the one getting called out. Now that’s comedy for you [laughs].”
East has yet to respond to any of Love’s claims. He recently released the deluxe edition to his mixtape Karma 3 in October. In our review, HipHopDX gave Karma 3 a score of 3.7/5.

Diabetes will kill Faizon Love before any bangers do.
I fuck wit East…
Dave East is a mediocre rapper and a semi-decent actor when playing Method Man. All New York Bloods and Crips are on some cosplay shit. They used to be in corny gangs called “Decepticons” and other weird ass shit. They all decided to consider themselves Crips and bloods to start acting like LA motherfuckers. Drink Hen, carry around rags etc. it’s sad that the birthplace of Hip-hop felt a need to copy some shit that should just be left alone. The south too. Little Wayne claiming swamp alligator blood gang. That dummy 21 Slaveage with his cosplay Hogwarts ass on são-me made up shit too. Just stay out of LA when you do your Naruto runs. You should be fine.
you gotta love you fake net knowledge dudes who speak on things like you know what you’re actually talking about.
Sure “Kold Breeze” LOL. I live in Inglewood California. Ever heard of it8 graduated Inglewood high in 1995. Where are you from moron? LOL. Where were Crips and bloods invented? Hahahaha. Idiot.

Invented: create or design (something that has not existed before) be the originator of. Not only are you a moron but you also don’t speak English. LOL. Maybe keep your opinion to yourself until you can get that GED, or at least spell GED. LOL@your mom not having an abortion.
Lol, tangible objects are invented. Groups are formed or created. You can use them interchangeably if you like, but you come across as an oaf.
Stfu you grammar queer
Lol, go invent some more people, bro.
Uh, dummy. Your L and lack of a life is very obvious. Hahahaha. You still haven’t said where you live or are from. Moron. According to the English language, you can INVENT a movement or cause. You can invent an idea. Dumbass. LOL. Dude was wrong and then tried to argue with fat and and was wrong again hahahaha. Nice one dork. Keep posting.
Why are you so worried about where I live? Are you trying to invent a friendship with me?

Your mom has already been invented…
Would you like to invent your own gang?
Lol, who invented the Civil Rights act?
Please tell me, who was the inventor of these gangs you speak of?
Damn. The second definition on there makes you look like a bigger moron AND a nerd. Why are you speaking on bloods and Crips anyways? You still haven’t said what city you’re from “Kold.” Hahahahaha. Here’s literally )used correctly) the second definition for invent. make up (an idea, name, story, etc.), especially so as to deceive someone. Huh. Ideas are tangible? LOL. You can touch them? Idiot. We get it. You’re from Minnesota. You got clowned and can’t let go. LOL

Someone doesn’t know what the word “invent” means and is laughing at his own ignorance. LOL. Bloods and Crips were conceived, though up or INVENTED in what used to be called South Central Los Angeles. Idiot.
I was at a Friendly’s in Los Angeles about five years ago and Faizon Love was there. My infant son had to use the bathroom, and Faizon was coming out of the toilet stall. The smell was so bad my son who was being difficult that day started crying and asked me why the “big man” did that.
And he wonders why he was left off the Couples’ Retreat cover…
This fat fuck just needs to shut up. Don’t understand why this site gives this idiot what he wants by reporting on this bull shit.
That fat bastard is as pointless at the person writing the article
Faizon is a sucka *ss n*gga! We’re startin to get tired him and his clout chasing ways.
