Dipset:
Had the hood, the suburbs, AND the country on lock.

Blacks, Latinos, whites, Asians, Native Americans.. f***in Pacific Islanders, everybody was flying the Dipset flag. The Dipset era was a rare moment of unity no matter what your background was.

Dipset was the strongest force in the streets and the music industry from 2002-2005. You couldn't go aaaaanywhere in NY without seeing niggas wearing those Dipset eagle shirts. They didn't do the biggest numbers, mostly cause Africans had entire stands dedicated to slanging bootleg Dipset CDs.

Literal street gangs all across the USA named themselves Dipset. Even the legendary Fredo Santana was named after Juelz and from a Chicago gang named Dipset. There's still gangs, to this day, putting Dipset in their sets name.

Changed fashion forever. You wouldn't have niggas with rainbow dreads and pink durags on if Cam didn't break down the unspoken barriers of masculinity by unironically wearing pink and driving pink cars and s***. Juelz couldn't be found without wearing 6 pieces of wave-related headgear at once -- a durag under two wave caps and starched bandana and upside down headband + oversized hardwood classic fitted was what Santana would wear on a minimal day.

Every time Dipset got 'caught slippin' was on some coward 30v1 s***. Anytime the Dips got pressed in an evenly matched encounter, they came out victorious. Cam got shot and drove to the hospital in a Lamborghini and ended up bagging a nurse. Freekey got jumped by two niggas with gats, RAN OVER, and still managed to steal one of the robbers guns, put him in a chokehold, and used him as a human meatshield while the other nigga was shooting at him. That's some comic book superhero s***.

Put Tru Life and his band of Puerto Rican Taliban insurgents on suicide watch. Superthug Tru got his chain snatched dolo by Shiest Bub, never got it back, and retaliated by sending 28 Puerto Ricans to rob Agallah for his chain when he was alone. Agallah got his PCP chain back after someone from Tru's camp was kidnapped

Meanwhile, Mobb Deep:

Both members barely above 5 feet

Redman, who Mobb Deep dissed, ran up on Prodigy IN HIS OWN PROJECTS IN QUEENSBRIDGE and told him to step if there was a problem. Prodigy apologized.

Portrayed super thug image but were soft in reality.

As OP said, they were basically terrorized by Tru Life and braided up Puerto Ricans from LES for the better part of 00s and never did s***.

Got robbed for their jewelry during a video shoot. The jewelry ended up being costume jewelry

PM Dawn was from New Jersey, but KRS One literally threw them offstage in NYC lol. That's all they're known for. Dipset and Mobb Deep both legends.

Growing up in Harlem and watching Smack dvd my head was filled with ”Dipset had the streets and the world on lock” until i was old enough to realize alot of them were getting punked in the streets. I remember too it was a older Rican dude from the Bronx who told me that Puerto Rican’s used to bully Dipset

that's embarassing, but getting knocked out and your chain took hurts way more than getting thrown off of a stage. plus, PM Dawn is a alternative rap group that was soft af and never faked the thug persona.

that's how it happens. when you start seeing things for what they truly are and realize that they were p**** this entire time. s*** f***ed me up from what I remember Jim was legit horrified by Tru Life. not on some gangster s*** but on some man to man s***. on some alpha vs beta s***. as a dipset fan, i f***in hated tru life but eventually accepted that he was jim's nightmare and none of my concern
