What are you talking about? I've never even heard of a black gangster. Gang member, yeah, but not a gansgter. Gangster's, the real ones, are hardcore Italian.
wannabe: "Yo, sup, man, why you gettin all in my crib and face, dawg?!"

gangster: "I prefer that you speak english if you do not want me and my boys to see that you are "six feet under" very soon."

wannabe: "Whatchyo talking about, foo! That be some tight sheet!"

gangster: "very well. you have made your choice. I shall see that you get a proper funeral with the fish, so that you do not disturb me any longer."

A badass dude usually associated with the mafia. Not to be confused with some lame ass nigga that thinks he is bad because he has a group of friends he does stupid things with that can't spell worth a shit.

n. - A person largley involved with illegal activity, such as hired hits, extortion, shakedowns, loansharking, and in some cases prostitution.

Gangsters are generally very discreet about who they are, thusly exempting 50 cent, Ludacris, Nelly, Ja Rule, Chingy, and any other person who claims to be an "iced out gangsta" and expelling them from the definition of gangster.

True gangsters are respectful towards people generally, until you cross them, and not one of those "bust a cap in yo ass becuz u look at me rong" wannabes.

A man of underworld power like Al Capone, usually noted for being italian or associated with the early to mid 1900s. Not like those fag rapper wannabes who claim they're gangsters because they know how to shoot a gun or sell small-time drugs like weed. You know someone isn't a gangster when they run around calling themselves one. BTW none of them were black, so WTF r u on?
Al Capone, Frank Costello, Big Jim Colosimo, Johnny Torrio, Frankie Yale. Those men were real gangsters. True OG's not those compton posers.
