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.

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.

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 person who belongs to a group of people designated for one purpose, often profit via crimes, such as, but not limited to, blackmail, drug dealing, prostitution and racketeering. The first and most successful gangsters were the Italian mob(Mafia). For black/latino gangster, see gangsta.
I live in New York, my town is very much Mafia run. The Italian gangsters will leave you alone so long as you do not interfere with their business. If you do, you will very likely end up dead at the bottom of a lake.

2. A whiny person who was obviously touched at a young age who wears bandannas over their faces. The usual gangster wears a jersey and baggy jeans that fall off every other minute. Their contracted kills are "bustin' a cap in dat nigguh'z ass."
