808 is a set located in the West Chatham neighborhood that consists of Gangster Disciples and some Black Disciples. Its territory ranges from 87th to the north, 89th to the south, Holland to the east and Harvard to the west. Members consider its main blocks 88th and Princeton as well as 88th and Yale. 808 is completely isolated from other hoods by the train tracks surrounding it, making it a unique residential enclave.

808 has been gaining popularity in the drill scene over the last few years thanks to its younger generation of members. The set has had connections with people all over the south side including late rapper TP from THF46, who made songs with its rappers back in 2010: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyO1b_acMh8

808's history with gangs is generational and can be traced as far back as the early 90s. The set took one of its earliest losses in 1993 when 19-year-old Michael Shariff, who lived on 87th and Princeton, was shot and killed after getting into an argument with two 15-year-olds from a rival gang. The proof of this incident occurring can be found in this article: https://www.chicagotribune.com/1993/06/07/girl-charged-for-role-in-gang-killing/

Other names 808 goes by include 808Mobb, 8Block, 80sBabies, 808Reapers, YoungFlyGuys (YFG), JumpOutGang (JOG), WamTeam, WamWam, DonnyGWorld and FreddieWorld. The earliest uses of the name 808 that's been found online so far can be found in their members' Chicago hood vlogs from 2009: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7wmkNaWW5Q, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8TTLuaMmHw

Freddie Walls: he died on December 16th of natural causes.

It's surprising no one's talked about him yet since he died 12 days before Aiki from the same set was killed.

He was also an aspiring rapper and one of his songs is on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVDqEAyl8w8

I couldn't find an article discussing his death, but from what I've gathered he was killed near his home on 69th and Harvard. This happened back when BrickSquad was known as NTG, which stood for Normal Town Gangsters.

Tribute rap made for him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEt9LCaAl3w

This post covers every person from the set that died or were killed between the years 2002 and 2006. I found them by searching through the Facebook accounts of other MOB members who payed tribute to them. I also went through Chicago's homicide dataset for confirmation.

WillieVille is a Gangster Disciple set located in the West Englewood neighborhood. Their territory ranges from 64th to 66th, Justine to Bishop, with their main block being 64th and Bishop. Before the death of their member Lil Willie on October 30th 2004, the set went by the name 064 Bishop Boyz.

WillieVille also has a generation of shorties called Six4 that hang around the area. The new generation's main block is on 64th and Laflin, while members of the older generation hang around 64th and Bishop. Notable Chicago drill rappers such as Ayoo KD (goofy) and MondoeSix4 share ties with this set.

061 Money Gang or BSG was a set within Jaro City consisting of Outlaw Gangster Disciples and Black Disciples. They'd usually hang out between Vernon and Rhodes on 61st street. People such as Reese G, 007 Nate, OneTrey, Lil Bro, Dalvin🕊️, OJ🕊️ and TuTu🕊️ were some of the notable members of this set. They also made music which can be found on YouTube.

This was before he left the set and decided to claim Brick$quad. None of the songs can be played on MySpace due to the site losing all of its content in a botched server migration in 2019. There's three songs from this tape that can be listened to on YouTube. Two of them feature Lil Reese, who was only 15 at the time:

"Chevy Ridin" ft Lil Reese: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpe__orqQg4

"Pipe Down" ft Lil Reese: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTzn54UR3Io

"Lamron": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GgSVJOnDB4

Unless someone (or Kellz) still has it saved somewhere and is willing to re-release it, the rest of the mixtape remains lost.

Also, there's a lost song called "Get It In Remix" that's 6 and a half minutes long so there's probably some crazy features from Lamron members in there.

SB grew up on PerryGang (73rd & Perry) territory and was friends with some of their members, who later payed tribute to him through old Facebook posts. He was affiliated with a now extinct Gangster Disciple set called CrashVille 075, located on 75th and Michigan. Their block now belongs to MMG/KOWay, which was called Young Money 075 before the killing of their member Murda Mook. According to his family, SB was a cool person and tried staying away from gangs.

SB died on October 8th 2008 after getting caught in a brawl between a group of teens and his friends days prior. One member of the group knocked him unconscious with a brick and that's when they began stomping and kicking him repeatedly. He later died of his injuries at John Stroger Junior Hospital. Four of the teens were caught and arrested for second-degree murder. Supposedly, the fight was over a basketball game that happened earlier that day. Here's a link to his death article: https://www.chicagotribune.com/2008/10/08/chicago-student-hit-in-head-with-brick-dies/

In 2017, SB's friends spotted two of his killers at a restaurant in Greektown and another fight broke out. There's more info about this situation here: https://patch.com/illinois/chicago/3-charged-brawl-shooting-greektown-restaurant

LL SB aka Spiffy. It sucks he died over some petty shit.

Stan was one of TYMB's earliest casualties back when it went by YMB/065. Garryl Willis aka Boo G or BooBoo from EvansMobb/LonCity was convicted of this murder. Despite rumors, JaroCity/ABM was never involved with his killing.
