Background


The film highlights YG's life on the streets of Compton before his rise to fame. Co-written by YG with the help of Darryl "Lucky" Rodgers, Blame It On the Streets draws inspiration from two of the rapper's album cuts: "BPT", a song about YG's initiation into the infamous Piru Bloods gang, and "Meet the Flockers", which describes his experience as a house burglar; YG said, "It's a group of your homies, so it's a flock of y'all going out lurking, looking for some s--t to rob," he explains. "That's why we call it flocking. I'm basically showing you the life behind those songs."[1]
