These are the true stories of several of America's most notorious Black and Latino gangsters whose careers created the utmost revered legends of the past 40 years. Their exploits and extremes have been chronicled across many mediums, including film and television but as a firsthand participant in the lifestyle, I was a friend to many and a contemporary of most so I have written stories that few have either the knowledge or experience to share. This is BEYOND THE HOOD.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Not bad.. By Lashes Malone While this book was informative, it seems pretty clear that the author does not like Alpo Martinez. The bias really made me want to stop reading it. But who doesn't love a good TRUE gangster story. And this book is chocked full of real gangster stories!!! Not some fictional, wanna-be-New-Jack-City-crap. So, I dived in - nose first. It was a relatively quick read. And, yes, I knew that the author was one of the co-creators of Don Diva Magazine. I have a personal preference for FEDS Magazine (it's grittier and I don't care who squealed to the feds about what illegal stuff they did with the homies - I just want the story "out of the horses mouth"), so I put my FEDS-til'-I-die pride aside, and kept reading. I'm pretty glad that I did because it was a pretty good book.Pretty good...I think it would have been a better book if the author would have stayed neutral and just presented the material. The chapter on Alpo only presented a portion of his testimony as a government informant. Why didn't they get the whole transcript? As a reader I wanted to know if there was anything else in that transcript that would support the whole anatomy of a snitch claim. Also, was it just the one case that Martinez appeared as a witness for the government that kept him in witness protection or were there others that sealed the deal? (I know there were more cases, I'm just sayin'...) If a chapter is going to be dedicated to black and latin drug lords turned informants, it could've presented more than one informant and more information that could better substantiate the "he's a snitch" claim. Did he brag around town about snitching? Just saying, as a reader I was left wanting to know more. The letter from Porter's mother, although touching was not enough to bolster the claim. Seemed like a thinly veiled character attack on Martinez, which lacked journalistic integrity. Both of those dudes where drug barons (I say barons because they were making millions as CEOs of their criminal drug organizations - not lowly street hustlers).There are three sides to every story. Readers have heard Martinez's side, the author attempts to piece together/fill in the blanks of Porter's side and we'll never know the truth. The two dudes that were there aside from Martinez are dead. The cynic in me feels that this is a convenient strategy employed by Martinez to ensure that his tale of the evening is more credible to the masses. With the target dead and the triggerman dead, who can dispute your version of the truth. If this was Martinez's strategy, the strategy was flawlessly executed. No disrespect intended (and my condolences to the deceased and their loved ones) but if you read these true stories with a strategic mindset, then you may find yourself noticing a flawlessly executed strategy and even mouthing the words "well done" while your friends are arguing, whining and crying about integrity amongst criminals in the background. But hey...that's just my opinion.At any rate, Friends, acquaintances, frenemies and confidantes kill each other all of the time in the criminal underworld. Families hate to admit that they are enablers by accepting the money, cars and gifts while turning a blind eye to the behavior and the drug dealing/kingpin career. "Snitching" is an unfortunate, but viable endgame strategy in the drug game. The object is to survive - not die. In the end those that don't die sometimes (not always) become informants. Loyalty in this sinister drug world, is to money.Aside from the "vendetta", the book was informative. Well done, Cavario. By the way, I've seen these stories re-posted on some guy's site. I had no idea that they came out of this book.
