Receving a Detroit pinprick is the same as getting shot, several times, in the chest or head...sometimes when it's not meant to be lethal...the dick.
Tyler: Dude I just saw Jim hittin on your girl, wat daya want to do bout it?
Shane: get my gun we're gonna give him a Detroit Pinprick.

Hyena Crips
Local street gangs based in Brooklyn, NY, and Detroit, MI, involved in violent crime, including murder, robbery, and fraud. Members call themselves “Hyenas” or “Heenz”.
Brooklyn: Founded in the early 2010s, members in East Flatbush faced federal charges for racketeering and multiple murders. Around 2015, some Brooklyn members placed affiliates in Detroit.
Detroit: Known as “83GC” (Hyena Crips Got Control), a localized Crip set active in Five Points (ZIP 48219). Operates in a Gangster Crips/3X-Movin Gang and Gangster Disciples area, adopting the “Treys” identity. Famous for tag wars and disputes with rivals like Black P. Stones and Rollin’ 60s Crips.
Media & Recognition: Outsiders often confuse them with L.A.’s 83 Gangster Crips due to graffiti. Featured in YouTube videos, news coverage, and an August 2025 Detroit News interview decoding their internal cipher.
Notable Members: Drippy, Cradley, Juice, Kappy, Jab, Weezy, Breezy, Tiny Joker, Syxx, Baby-Bear, M-Loc, Bleu, Dino

“You better watch where you’re walking in Five Points—those Hyena Crips (Brooklyn & Detroit) tags aren’t just graffiti, they mark territory.”—Detroiter

A rap genre which innovates on the traditional hip-hop beat structure with its use of Anti-Harmony, in which the Artists sound like they're actively beefing with the instrumental. It is also notable for the fact that everyone is either a Spiritual Lyrical Miracle Individual or Mumble Rapper, no inbetween, both of them use the same instrumentals and drugs, so Detroit is the only scene where these two arent at war. Every type of rapper from here has a distinguished freestyle cadence, not unique to Detroit but most prominent here, known as "yapping" in which you say anything on a track as long as it rhymes.
Guy 1: Man I love Detroit Rap Snares, I wish I could hear what he is saying tho
Guy 2: He's saying hes a spiritual lyrical miracle individual on the criminal cynical pinnacle residuals

Detroit is an American city founded in 1701. A struggling city, went bankrupt from 2013 to 2015. Lost a lot of people, but a lot of white people are here now. A lot of gang influence in the Westside. Blight programs are in order to get rid of all the abandoned homes to make land for another use. Recently built the best architectural looking arena ever, Little Ceasars Arena. We have Detroit-Style pizza, which is extremely good. Crime has gone down so much, we moved 5 in most dangerous cities in the USA. Detroit isn't that bad, you just have to see it for yourself, if not, then don't talk shit.
