Chambers Brothers (gang) - Cultural Effects

Cultural Effects

In the novel Warpath, by Jeffry Scott Hansen, the street gang, The Six-Mile Syndicate, is based loosely on The Chambers Brothers gang. In the 1991 film, New Jack City, the character, Nino Brown, is largely based on, and influenced by, the real life Detroit gang The Chambers Brothers. Brown had also made a name for the group as "Cash Money Brothers". Also, The Chambers Brothers and family members: Randy Bridgeforth, Terrance Stewart, Damion "D.D." Bridgeforth, and Anthony King, were known for having their own apartment building to move their drugs on E. Ferry Street in Detroit; in New Jack City, it was known as "The Carter".
