Origin: West Coast Gangster Crip identity adapted into Detroit’s local framework

General Territory: Originally formed along W. Seven Mile. Through the early–late 2010s held a large zone between Evergreen and Lahser before a major RICO case took down 16 members. A small, scattered presence also exists on the Eastside.

Notable Subsets / Cliques:

*In No Particular Order*

7 Mile Playboy Gangster Crips (7M PBGC): Heavy activity along W. Seven Mile between Lahser and Evergreen

East Warren Crips (EWC): Heavy activity along E. Warren Avenue near Conner Street

• Eastside Playboy Gangster Crips (E/S PBGC): Older, smaller clique tied to blocks along E. Warren

Notes:

Detroit PBGC sets operate independently of LA-based PGC but retain the Playboy identity and Gangster Crip structure. Considered one of the most organized Crip sets in Detroit’s history, with extensive documentation of coordinated criminal activity.

• 24000 Blocc a/k/a “ScoreGang”: One of the most visible cliques, heavily seen on walls and in rival crossouts

• Baby Hyenas Gang (BHG): Youth-gang of the W7M Crips with a strong street presence

• Tiny Lok Krew (TLK): A prominent graffiti clique affiliated with the W7M Crips

General Territory: Eastside and Westside; most active along 6 Mile and across various W/E Warren pockets

Notable Subsets / Cliques:

*In No Particular Order*

• GreenGuyz: One of the most visible SGC identifiers

• 1229 / ReaperGang: Youth-heavy clique with a strong music presence

• 6 Mile ShoutGun Crips (6M SGC): Activity along 6 Mile near Livernois

• Warren ShoutGun Crips: Presence around both E. Warren and W. Warren corridors

Notes:

ShoutGun Crips are one of Detroit’s most fragmented Gangster Crip sets, defined tightly by blocks and micro-territories. Some cliques, such as 1229/ReaperGang, maintain ties to Rollin 60s Crips, underscoring how Detroit’s “Gangster Crip Card” operates far more fluidly than out-of-state Gangster Crip structures.

General Territory: Minor but steady Westside and jail-system footprint; street-level activity is viewed as largely defunct with no known youth pipeline

Known Subset:

• 6 Mile 52 Hoover Gangster Crips: Small clique tied to the 6 Mile–Schaefer area

Notes:

Detroit Hoover sets operate differently from West Coast Hoover politics; alliances and rivalries do not map cleanly. Periodic 107 Hoover Criminals Gang (Y.L.S.) tags have appeared near ScoreGang graffiti, though not consistently enough to confirm an active presence in Metro Detroit.

General Territory: Minor but steady presence in the Brightmoor neighborhood of northwest Detroit; street-level activity is viewed as partly defunct with current activity being minor

Notes:

BGC (Brightmoor Gangster Crips) is documented as a small but active Gangster Crip–aligned street organization operating within the 23 Zone (48223 ZIP code). Available sources indicate alliances with local Gangster Disciples–affiliated groups, including BMG. The group maintained a consistent tagging presence in the Brightmoor area during the mid-2010s, particularly in the context of localized graffiti disputes often referred to as “tag wars.”
