I would say benefits of individuals with gang ties in the hip hop industry from different associations. I think it's a common misconception presently to think guys of rival gangs will just be hostile to each other instantly. Some cases true but mostly it's a mutual interest in the music and other hobbies that brings them together. West Coast will always have the most unique cases in hip hop industry. Of course there's the Midwest , and many rappers had up & down moments with Chi gangs. From Biggie to current day drill rappers.
