We do got patreon five days a week and we got merch This is the deadly battle of hackney burrow at war Let's get into it. This is my kid nerd by the way man. Shout out kid nerd man Hattney a place where thousands of people all over the UK rush to meet you with some of the best schools social life and quality of Living in London. Hattney really has something for everyone with one of the most thriving nightlifes in London located in Shawditch and Doulston a Unique opportunity of inner-city nature and wildlife in London fields and the Hattney city farm while also having wonderful Examples of art and culture with his several museums and street art while also being home to a wide range of different Cultures and social classes who live side-by-side of each other all of this while being so close to the center of the city But in the background of all of this, there's a darker side to the borough a side which is constantly getting covered up today We'll be getting into the history of hackney and the deadly gang war that's plagued the borough for decades. Let's get into it Before I get into this video guys make sure to follow my Instagram in the description I'm going to be doing a lot of giveaways on there soon. So make sure you don't miss out now Hattney was very different in the past to how it is now There wasn't much covering up what it was back in the day Which was a poverty-ridden area with a lot of crime in the 1960s. Hattney was seen as the heart of East London Despite its harsh poverty Made it a very bright and exciting area but in the background Residents lived in relative fear due to old-school English gangsters who self-governed a lot of what was happening around the borough Probably one of the most famous examples being the Kray twins who grew up in the slums of hackney and grew up to be one of the most powerful and influential duos in the criminal underground around London Decades after this a new fool started to emerge inside London the Jamaican yardies and they were building up a big Reputation for violence around London some of the first areas the yardies were building their influence was inside hackney and another area in London called Tottenham and it wasn't long before gang members in hackney and Tottenham started having issues between themselves in the late 90s back-and-forth issue He's mainly between the London fields and Pembroke areas of hackney and the broodwater farm estate in Tottenham Escalated in a full-out war, which was one of the deadliest gang wars the UK had seen at the time Thankfully this feud ended up dying out after the younger generations didn't keep it alive Instead the younger generations in hackney were more focused in petty feuds inside the borough School fights between kids from London fields and Clapton started being a cause for concern in hackney It started getting a bit more worrying when different areas in the states around the borough started picking sides a Couple kids from nearby estates in Holly Street and balance road in Hormerton started teaming up with Clapton against London fields But at this time it was just an innocent group of kids fighting each other outside of schools Unfortunately, it's all changed on June the 9th 2003 a few days before Boys from London fields and Holly Street had a group fire like they had been doing throughout the last few months Holly Street were looking for revenge and decided to take this feud to the next step So on June the 9th, they drove to London fields Which is no less than two minutes away from Holly Street in three different cars loaded with a pistol and a shotgun when they arrived They spotted a group of kids playing outside the London Hey, man, I swear this is one like at the pinnacle of gun violence in Chicago I feel like I feel like everybody was on the same timeline Like we was all fighting fighting fighting using fists at one point and then at the same time Everybody was just like you know what? I Filled to stay and immediately started shooting two shots hit an 18 year old called JD Brissett sadly killing him Starting a war which goes on till this day This murder was all over the news and was labeled as the first ever postcode war death in London And more was to come throughout the rest of the 2000s virus was erupting all over the borough with divided hackney into two sides Red side and blue side with different estates picking different sides Hatties a small place as well with it being the fourth smoothest out of 32 boroughs in London And with so many estates and gangs all over the borough with most of the time only a street separating them Violence was becoming an everyday occurrence Especially in the summers during school holidays on one summer in 2008 a 16 year old boy called Ahmed was with a group of his friends Like a good kid Bro is chilling feet up knees together relaxing Continue It's on the top floor of his house in the state in London fields when they spotted a group of boys riding bikes towards their building Ahmed's friends scattered while the group were chasing them to the top of their building But Ahmed lost his friends and got cornered by the gang So he attempted to climb down the high-riser state on the side of the building which was his only escape He ended up falling 60 feet to his death a day before he was meant to receive his GCSE results Which he passed nine subjects on ten days later London fields boys went to like I said, that's a good kid He was just trying to get away from trouble. I'm cornered that man. He thought he was Could do something that nobody could probably Revenge so six boys from the London fields area rode bicycles near an opposing area called Pembury and stabbed a 14-year-old boy who went by the name of fester just yards from his house leaving him to die The boys then proceeded to even slasphester 16 year-old sister in the face He was with him at the time around the same time all of this mess was happening on the streets a group of slightly older guys From London fields were starting to pave the way for They hit a bunch of civilians Hackney musically a few early artists from the London fields area like Marx Askel Hypo and tricky made a rap group called Mastown They were really making noise on the music scene in the time before big record deals for UK artists But Mastown's early success really showcased to a lot of younger kids that there may be a chance of success outside of the streets Younger kids from the London fields area also tried their chance on music One of these kids being someone who went by the name of Eric here He jumped on tracks with other younger members from London fields But sadly in 2009 his music career was cut through after he was attacked by members from the opposing areas of Holly Street and Hudson leaving him dead more young is from London fields also started dropping music So Mars and tricky have a podcast in the part of the culture. I've heard the names Within themselves are OS or rideout squad and they were making a lot of noise on the scene in the early 2010s Other artists throughout Hattie started gaining more notoriety as well One of the first diss tracks to come out of Hackney was from a rapper in home and called Kemsie He dropped a song called balance block, which was a big diss track to London fields A rapper called rimsy from the upper Clapton area also started dropping some big Good production value The next big thing out of London, but while stuff was looking up for him on the music scene Unfortunately the streets of Hackney got the best of him on January the 10th rimsy alongside two others were riding Bicycles through Hackney loaded with a revolver looking for any opposition gang members and undercover police car spotted the group and Started to pursue them when rimsy let off one shot into the unmarked police car before his gun jammed the group cycled away Eventually ditching their backs and making the run for it But the trio were cool and rimsy was sentenced to 11 years in jail another up-and-coming artist from an estate called fellows cool And you know what's crazy? I didn't know that was why rimsy was in jail for that long Bro got the role is moving reckless. Why would he do that? I Understand they was on a ride out looking for office, but like Into a police car got to be the worst luck Hackney was starting to get his name out there on the scene when he dropped a tune called trash town Which was a direct diss track to London fields But sadly just that rimsy he let the streets get the better of him His name was Dubzie and alongside three other friends from the fellow courts estate They took a five-minute trip from their estate to an opposing estate in Hackney called hot stone When they spotted the 18-year-old called Marcel a die He was recently seen in a hot stone music video the group spotted him and ran him down Until Marcel tripped up after he felt the group proceeded to hold him down and stab him 14 times leaving him for dead The worst thing about this is not too long before Fellows cool and hot stone used to be part of the same gang until civil disputes brought them apart Dubzie would receive a live sentence for this cut in his music career short But one murder that affected a lot of especially younger people in Hackney happened on April the 23rd 2013 a kid who just turned 16 that went by the name of D. Dot was traveling home on his bus from school Ready to celebrate his 16th birthday when he passed a school called hybrid Grove another school kid Who spotted D. Dot through the window who did the bus stabbed him and run off D. Dot collapsed and sadly the next day He was pronounced dead D. Dot started getting close to the London Fields gang in his area Who are still viewed in the nearby area of Pembury who is 15 year-old attacker was from due to the close proximity Like a people a lot of people tick on that gang moniker that gang lifestyle I really don't know what they're getting myself into Because like you might not have done nothing on a roll But you with some people to have and they are your ops now. So you got to be on point There is no more taking the bus. You better stay at home or stay Uber or you know, I'm saying call for a ride You have all these feeding areas Different gangs would come into close contact to each other Resulting in even the simple task of going to and from school a constant risk Even sending kids outside of Hackney was no longer safe with Hackney being both in North and East London Gangs from nearby boroughs like Islington and Tower Hamlets also started getting involved in Hackney politics Which was becoming an increasing problem But stuff for a little while was looking up for Hackney due to the 2012 summer Olympics taking place in London The government used the Olympics as an excuse to clean up parts of East London, which was lacking behind other parts of the city The Olympics took place in Stratford a town just outside of Hackney, which had his own issues of crime But by the time the Olympics was beginning Stratford and parts of You look unrecognizable to his former state Tower blocks were being taken down and replaced from modern apartments And many low-income residents were being relocated to areas further away from the center of London Business the crime rate actually went down in Hackney But this didn't last long it would only take two years after the Olympics for the crime rate to go back up And not long after sadly another laugh was lost to the feud J. Dot was a straight-A student from Hormerton who came to the UK with his family from Congo searching for a better life But unfortunately while residing in Hackney, he started getting involved in the streets from early J. Dot and his two friends Gashi and Sana were around an hour away from London in a town called Swindon Where Sana said the trio were out selling drugs in a county land operation on January the 6th 2015 the three were traveling back to London on the train But what J. Dot and Gashi didn't know was that Sana was in communication with a 17-year-old London Fields member Letting him know that the three would be arriving at Hackney Central Station that back door them Never know who you think you're hanging around with man. That's why you just can't trust nobody in this game There is no honor amongst thieves man. You think somebody in there is your homeboy. No, you can't trust them either 11 p.m. When the three arrived J. Dot and Gashi stepped out of the station Not knowing that their so-called friend Sana had set them up in a trap of multiple London Fields members packed of nests Once they walked out the station the three dispersed after being ambushed by the London Fields boys Luckily they managed to get away Eventually ending up in their area Hormerton But at this time they didn't put two and two together that their friend Sana had set them up The London Fields members spent the next half an hour searching through the Hackney Streets in an attempt to find both Gashi and J. Dot Sana managed to locate the pair and once again leaked their whereabouts This time they weren't as lucky J. Dot was stabbed several times with a fatal stab wound to his heart Four people including Sana were arrested for this murder where Sana even turned against the other three and testified against them They all got back doors crazy I'm not trying to say nothing. I'm not trying. It's always a female though It's always a female playing both sides because the odds are always gonna be thinking with a Little head instead of the big head No matter how old or anything That's why the back door is so you know it works so well pause Well, then few sentences around the same time as what is happening the UK drill scene style popularizing in South London Hackney as a whole was a bit late to the drill scene in 2018 The borough started making their mark on the genre a London Fields rapper named That's blew up on the scene after dropping his hit single called the truth another rapper coming out of the opposing area of Hummington was also making waves called KO especially after dropping his mad about bar freestyle Which solidified him in the genre But it was another hummer rapper that really put on for Hackney after he dropped no doubt the biggest drill song to Come out of the UK at the time the rapper being someone who went by the name of unknown tea Unknown tea hadn't been rapping for too long But when he dropped his single hummer and be on August the 19th 2018 the song grew to a point that the drill scene had not seen before This UK drill song to chart in the official singles charts, which was a shock to a lot of people after this drop Unknown tea was looking like he was gonna be the first drill artist to cross over to the mainstream He secured the deal with the big music corporation Universal and even performed alongside big Canadian rapper Drake at the old two But there was one issue unknown tea was under investigation for a New Year's murder in 2018 a murder which took place not long You might want to forget the streets with the first streets will never forget you man What's done in the dark is gonna come to the light man remember that when you in those streets Like I know you want to make a way out, but man Just just know what's what you got It's gonna you know probably come up before he dropped his first big single Basically during the New Year's party unknown tea and other hummer and members attended a 20 year old man Completely unrelated to Hackney's gang politics was stabbed to death after an altercation at the party Unknown tea alongside three others were arrested and charged for the murder another man Part of the hummer and gang was also meant to be charged for the murder as well called Shegg But sadly him himself was also killed by London Fields members some months before unknown tea managed to be the murder case Claiming he wasn't involved in the fact but his two co-defenders was not as lucky and ended up getting sentenced for the murder Throughout the next few years back-and-forth murders shootings and stabbing have continued throughout the borough So much that I can't even cover everything on this video one murder that was covered heavily on the news was the murder of a 29-year-old man called Joshua wet on the 26th of April 2019 just before this murder a young member of the Stokey 16 gang who Are allied with London Fields received threats from an older Stokey member who was in jail the older member said that he wasn't putting in enough work for the gang and Quoted that feel needed to get somebody down or he would be derecreated from the gang So feel alongside two other Stokey 16 members rode around in a stolen SUV looking for people around hummettin When the group arrived at Frampton Park Road in E9 they spotted 29-year-old Joshie aware He used to have links to hummettin But was about to start a job as a train driver soon feel alongside two other Jumped out on Joshie aware and chased him into a shop stabbing in multiple times of a two-foot sword All in front of a young kid who fell to the ground while getting chased Unfortunately, Joshie would die from his injuries, but the gang wasn't finished there They jumped back in the SUV and searched for more people. They eventually found someone else They recognized he was with his partner and young child at the time But this didn't stop them and they proceeded to stab in multiple times not long after the second stabbing police were no Both of them kids for life Fired about the attacks happening out of an SUV So while the group was looking for more people They ended up getting into a police chase where they crashed the car and dispersed all three attackers are cool around the same Time as all this happening members of the hummettin and Holly Street gangs linked up and started calling themselves 98s they started dropping music under the 98s name and instantly started gaining millions of views on their songs Unfortunately, their success was not long-lived with four of their biggest rappers on some serious charges looking at some serious time Quite recently 98s rapper D.A. who had some big star potential got sentenced to 28 years For a mis-identified Occasionally shooting 98s rapper Billy Billions is also locked up right now in relation to the same case And if he's found guilty he'll also be looking at a long stretch another two 98s rapper Called KO and Hitman are also currently on trial for a 2022 murder of a London Fields member called KB on August the 13th of that year KB was attending a children's birthday party in Wolfham Stolt East London when he stepped out the party to go to his car Two men who police claim is KO and Hitman were waiting for him and fatally shot him not too long after KO dropped a song called laughing stop which was quickly building up a lot of attention after recent events But it was building attention in all the wrong ways The police monitored this song heavily which had a lot of incriminating lyrics one lyric even described how the same gun Which was used to kill KB was also used to shoot KB's older brother previously Which was something the feds didn't know until they listened to the song It was later found out by forensics that the same gun had been used in seven different shootings before the murder After heat from the song and other evidence KO and Hitman were both booked for the murder not too long before this Another up-and-coming rapper from the London Fields side was also starting to look promising called Blacko But once again his career was cut short after a shooting in 2020 with a submachine gun sprayed out of control Hitting several civilians outside the children's park Blacko alongside a cab driver was sentenced to 35 years for the murder Unfortunately, it seems that this feud has no signs of stopping with many lives lost throughout the small borough It's kind of crazy that this is all happening within a place where a lot of people Believed to be one of the best places to live in London But this turf war which escalated from a group of innocent school kids having fistfights more than two decades ago Has made life living in health and many residents growing up in the borough.
