CRIP, the Personal Registration and Identification Code, a number used Mexico's states (with the exception of Mexico City) as a personal identification code
He was also mentioned in Poppin' Them Thangs when Young Buck states "You ain't no Crip like Snoop you ain't no Blood like Game".
He is the father of Colton Simpson, the notorious Crip OG who authored the book Inside the Crips, and is currently serving a 126-year sentence under California's 3-strikes law.
A two-part 2002 article by journalist Chuck Philips called "Who Killed Tupac Shakur?" reported that: "the shooting was carried out by a Compton gang called the Southside Crips to avenge the beating of one of its members by Shakur a few hours earlier. Orlando Anderson, the Crip whom Shakur had attacked, fired the fatal shots. Las Vegas police discounted Anderson as a suspect and interviewed him only once, briefly. He was later killed in an unrelated gang shooting."
Evidence gathered by Philips showed that: "the shooting was carried out by a Compton gang called the Southside Crips to avenge the beating of one of its members by Shakur a few hours earlier. Orlando Anderson, the Crip whom Shakur had attacked, fired the fatal shots. Las Vegas police discounted Anderson as a suspect and interviewed him only once, briefly. He was later killed in an unrelated gang shooting."
In contrast, on Doggystyle, he had displayed himself as a Crip (a street gang).
