In this episode we traveled to 55th and Denker in Los Angeles to meet with gang member and local celebrity Crip Mac. Things took an unexpected turn when Cmac insisted he demonstrate a gang initiation on Nic--who now goes by the name Dynamite Blue. 

Cmac goes on to describe the psychology of gang banging, his affinity for "big booty bluetiful sitches," and the importance of giving back to your community, especially the homeless. 

As things were wrapping up on 55th and Denker we caught wind of a nearby Slipknot concert and asked Cmac if he wanted to tag along.


<3 Enjoy,

--Andrew, Evan, Dynamite

Cmac is eccentric for sure. Yet on his YouTube channel he also explains how he has diagnosed but untreated schizophrenia (hears voices, paranoid), bipolar, and has outbursts of explosive anger. That's what he means when he says his grandma knew he was "crazy" since he was 10 or 12.He explains the medications make him feel dull and that's a liability in the streets, so he doesn't use it. He's pretty earnest and self aware about it, which is impressive. Hopefully this all ends well for him. I just hope Channel 5 doesn't make characters out of people on account of their mental illness (cmac , perhaps Kelly j Patriot?). You five me? Aw what am I sayin. Nifty Nicc aint no custer. He'll keep it 55th street. Have a bluetiful day 😎

It actually does have a point in communities that have been forgotten in America. It looked like the only people there to do anything at all to help the crisis of homelessness in Skid Row were crips or at least wearing blue. When we talk about failures of institutions, those failures have became institutions in themselves.

And just like that, another classic. Insight into communities that are largely misunderstood / unheard while simultaneously being stupidly entertaining. Makes me feel like I could relate to people I wouldn't expect to. No one else is anywhere close to what ya'll are producing. Fuck yes.

channel 5 brings out empathy in corny but somehow authentic genuine way. i think its the connection between the audience and these often overlooked people that channel 5 fosters is the real magic behind this show that's why I wasn't the biggest fan of the previous video it lacked that human connection. but overall great stuff you're well on your way hopefully the world doesn't collapse before you peak.

idk if anyone has noticed but theres 2 different version of crip mac. the one here is edited slightly different than the one on youtube. ive only noticed 2 differences and i will list them below, if anyone else notices more please add to it. 1. On Patreon version Nick says "ive never been put on, but it seems worth it" this is excluded from YT. 2. On Youtube the " cactus jack logo" guy gets told by crip mac to "ok get up out of here" this is for some reason excluded from patreon. that is all.
