Gang Signs of Los Angeles

by Joey deVilla on May 28, 2008

Never let it be said that you won’t learn anything here at The Adventures of Accordion Guy in the 21st Century. Whether you’re entering a freestyle rap battle in Compton or just trying to “keep it real” in your suburb, be sure you know these gang signs!

Hand signs of various Los Angeles gangs.
I should ask my co-worker Rachel which gang sign she threw when she lived in L.A. (my money’s on “Crip Killa”).

On that note, here’s Dynamite Hack’s 2000 cover of Eazy-E’s Boyz-n-the-Hood:

I really should add this one to the accordion repertoire.

All of them. Really quickly, in a row. To confuse the gangstas and prove I’m craaaaaaaazy and not to be messed with.

I liked Boyz-n-the-Hood. You should also check out Nina Gordon’s Straight Outta Compton. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otL6FvpALQg&fmt=18

if you took your banner “accordian-guy.jpg” and turned it into a PNG8 file you would not have that blotchy red color you get from jpeg compression on solid colors, especially read. PNGs handle solid colors much better, as well as the alpha shadows, FWIW.
