Crip
Blood's sworn rival
Crip is a member of the Crips, a predominantly Black street gang founded in Los Angeles in the late 1960s, known for wearing blue: He claimed Crip at fourteen.
The gang has spread nationwide and appears frequently in hip-hop culture.
Separately, crip is a reclaimed term used by some disabled people to describe themselves or disability culture, deliberately repurposing the slur "cripple": crip theory, crip pride.
