But how can they do this? they had 53 (58 at most) gang territories in san andreas, i think with a little bit of tweaking, they could easily put a similar number of different gangs into the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poiuytrew Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 True but this time they might make different sets look diff or dress diff.. I think that's what i was getting at, it would be a way smaller number than in real life, but i could see 50 or so distinct street gang types going, all distributed through the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR7 Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 OG Solo (Shawn Fonteno) is also known as a rapper from Los Angeles, Watts CA. Affiliated with another Watts rapper - Kam and early Ice Cube's Lench Mob crew (everybody are affiliated with DJ Pooh). You can hear him on these tracks: Kam ft Solo - Where I Come From (Produced by DJ Pooh) Kam ft Solo & Tyrese - Showin' U Off (Produced by DJ Pooh) Solo appears on these videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJ3CF_5hUj4 As well Solo is known for beatin' up Ice Cube on the streets back in 1997. Beef between Ice Cube and Cypress Hill (watch from 9:55 to hear short interview with Solo about what's going down - stoling Ice Cube's chain, Rolex watch and knockin' him out) When people asked Ice Cube on twitter if he voiced Franklin he said close but no cigar, maybe he knew it was Solo all along since they seem to have some history.

The Notorious MOB Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 After hearing he's voice, it's gotta be him, and he even looks like Franklin, but a bit more chubby at least in the face. Yeah but how old is that film/clip? And that photo.. Considering he was really inactive on twitter before it got shut down that could of been his profile picture for ages. He could of lost weight, who knows.. Can anyone find any recent pictures of him? I tried but found nothing :| Franklin is actually a little overweight.. he's not quite as overweight as the this guy but he's not what I would call thin or even athletic. The voice actor isnt just pure fat either though.. he has sort of a football player's physique so you can tell he works out in some way. In the artwork of Franklin in the vest he is actually quite close to the size of the twitter picture of "OG Solo". Franklin is described as "fit and fashion conscience"...what overweight person is considers fit? Franklin probably just wears those baggy clothes as his default outfit. He could be fit cardiovascerly (is that a word) but still be a little overweight. I know a guy who goes to the gym almost every day and could easily outrun any thin person I know but he's definitely not slim by anyone's standards.

I had a quiet Sunday to myself so I thought I would finally put some effort into seeing what I could find and luckily it paid off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutran Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Kam - Benefits (you can see Solo at 3:11 and other moments. DJ Pooh at 3:20) Kam - In Traffic (at the end you can see DJ Pooh and Solo in a few moments) So OG Solo is well known for affiliation with DJ Pooh (worked on GTA San Andreas and now he's workin' on GTA V).
