What I got to say is :
Pharoh, man did you get the message I sent to you a couple weeks back bra ?, I aint tryin to put all these suckas up on shit but Little D. did an interview for a magazine, I got the shit. I said earlier this year that a friend of mine went to high school with Little D.. My partna tell me he went to high school with Little D. and he said they both finished high school in 1986, my parta said D. had a BMW, a Maserati and that D.'s main girl was named Elizabeth. My partna also said Little D. was a vegatarian.He also mentioned one of his friend's found $10000 in a phone booth that was inside a brown paper bag and my partnas friend returned it to D. and D. didn;t give dude shit just thanked him. In this article Little D. said he didn't really get started until 11th grade when a friend of his moved into some apartments on Mcarthur where crack was being sold 24/7 and Little D.'s partna asked D. to buy a 16th and it was on from there. Little D. said he first heard of crack in Junior High. Little D. mentioned he had a Maserati, and a BMW just like my friend said, If you go back and check your messages you will see what magazine that I told you about that Little D. did an interview for, not only that Little D. got the cover story. So it don't look like Little D. dropped out after 7th grade as my older partna that graduated from Fremont High in 1986 is solid as fuck, and says D. went to Fremont.My partna tell me bout B. Bishette, T. Washington, R. Jeter who's cousin is Q-Tip, Fox and he upped me on shit about Ant Flowers and Slo Mo Smith in 1996. I really don't want to drop names so the people who know will know who I'm talkin bout. Now gettin to yall's debate I see it like this Rudy Henderson was a wholesale supplier, his name didn't ring as big a bell on the streets as Felix Mitchell's because Rudy's thing wasn't sewing up hella spots and breakin shit down any lower than keys, while Felix's crew the 6-9 Mob was funkin with The Family and renegade members who tried to start their own crews, plus other smaller organizations leavin' more blood on the streets. Felix Mitchell was there to give back to the community, he had businesses in the community and employed impoverished people in the communitee who through dope including emplying kids as lookouts, and dressed flashy and drove a flashy red Ferrari. Felix employed people from the 6-9, putting money in their pockets. Felix left a legacy for future kingpins to follow. Felix used methods the feds aint seen up to that point, and had a 11 to 13 year run in the game. Yeah Henderson may have made more money, but Michell infuenced more people, and paved the way for future successful crews as Mitchell created the success model on how to run a criminal enterprise like a corperation. Plus look at Mitchell's funeral it was televised around the USA and it was beyond lavish with 10's of thousands of onlookers. Mitchell influenced every major player in Oakland from Little D., Black, Ant Flowers, Slo Mo, Pondo, Big Harv etc., ect. Henderson may have generated more money, but Mitchell kept the his name ringin' in life and in death. Plus the estimated 50 to 20 million dollars per year that his organization was bringin' in aint no kind of chump change. Felix Mitchell's name is like royalty in the streets. You can ask the Oakland Tribune, the Police and Feds, who was a bigger impact Felix Mitchell or Rudy Henderson and I'm sure they will say Felix Mitchell as he impacted the streets more. Now Henderson's impact may have put tons of shit on the streets creating a domino effect and one can argue a good case for Henderson, but ask around as most will say Mitchell made the streets more violent, also removing him from the game left the streets more violent as drug prices went down, murders went up, more crews attempted to sew up streets, one man's word no longer means shit as there is less diplomacy in settling disputes all of this as the king left his thrown and everyone is vying for a piece of the action, whenever this occurs anywhere in the USA the feds call this the Felix Mitchell paradox.
