What exactly does the word 'loc' mean and where is it from?

[Mak Deniro]

I'm sure its a proper dumb question but i don't live on the west coast and it seems to be the only place on the planet that use the word

I know enough to realise it means gangsta or something similar

but where is the word from? is it spanish or mexican?

 

[I. Cold]

its slang for crip... like cuz

 

[28g w/o the bag]

it's derived from the spanish word loco

 

[YOUNG BREW]

^^ exactly..derives from loco..has been expanded to mean other shit..like Love Of crip....alot of crips use the term LOC but its not necessarily only a crip thing..me and my folks call eachother LOC..its a click thing..but its only used to mean crazy..livin off crime...locd out criminalz...etc etc etc..
