GANGS OF MEMPHIS KILL OR BE KILLED

This video dives into the violent and tumultuous history of Memphis, Tennessee, particularly focusing on the infamous gang known as LMG (Love Murdering Gangsters). Set against a backdrop of the city’s rich cultural heritage—including its roots in blues music and barbecue—the narrative highlights the stark contrast between Memphis as a tourist destination and its grim reputation as one of the deadliest cities in the United States. The transcript reveals how gangs, particularly LMG, emerged from the poverty-stricken neighborhoods, specifically the Le Moine Gardens housing project. The story follows various gang members, including D’Angelo “Wild” Bills and Curtis Crump, as they navigate a life filled with crime, violence, and loss. The narrative culminates in the story of their notorious leader, George “G Train” Huet, whose reign of terror ended with his assassination in 1999, leaving the gang fragmented yet still a significant threat in Memphis.
