Group from mid 90s...called Lordz of Brooklyn. They were a hip hop group back then...think they branched into punk/ rock afterwards. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDxTiVAzv1UGotta ask, since this board exists...were/are any of these guys connected? I'm 100% certain that these guys got a record deal because of the success of "House of Pain". HOP and Everlast had actual talent though, LOB were GARBAGE.... They used the cosa nostra imagery so heavily that I figured that they had to be affiliated or backed by one of the families.

bumping after a year AGAIN saw promo for a show about an Italian American rapper named,.......wait for it.............G-Fella has a show on fuse called G-thing..again..heavily using lcn imagery. said promo is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9oWUW9sPkE&feature=c4-overview&list=UUGJkwVTCREz-RDqMAlTa0dAeven has a song/video called "10 mob commandments" featuring an appearance by actor from the Sopranos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVLDLod_eBAGotta ask about him, like I asked about LOB years ago....is this guy connected? He wouldn't be able to get away with portraying this type of image if he wasn't even remotely related to somebody .....right? -------------------------------------------------------- and yes.....on the surface the show is very derivative.. entourage and the sopranos are directly being copied

DD, thanks just looked up the old thread here http://www.gangsterbb.net/threads/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=600025about this guy's family frowning upon the content of one of his music videos.....revealing too much think that was a leaked story/publicity stunt or real? reason why I ask is I can't see this guy being blood relatives of known killer(s) and affiliated people and not knowing what's acceptable and what's not acceptable in terms of imagery.
