However, treatment by other inmates? Well that's another story. Two things happen: 1). you get the dicc-riders who think if they align themselves with the celeb and "hold him down" that upon their release their efforts will not be forgotten and they will be "taken care of" when they get out and reconnect with the celeb/rapper. On the other hand 2). you got the extortionists and cats looking to make a name for themselves at the celeb/rappers expense. Their mentality is "look, I don't give a phucc who you are...in HERE this is MY WORLD and I'M THE CELEB...now come up off them kicks, my nygga" LOL. So Wayne will never make it to GP (general population) for that reason. He will be in protective custody (even against his own will if he prefers GP). For example, Wayne is a known "blood". You got crips on the Island who'd love to earn their stripes off Weezy F-Baby.
But lets pretend for arguments sake that there was the possiblity of Wayne going to GP. Most of the Island inmates are housed in dorms called "houses" by jail jargon. There are as much as 75 inmates in each house with only 1 CO. The CO goes in the "bubble" (observation room) and isn't always walking the house floor. The house is similar to military barracks. You got 75 beds in the house but sometimes there might only be 60 inmates in the house. Yet still, you got like 10 imates sleeping on the floor despite the 15 extra beds. Lets just say if Wayne was in GP and ended up in a house run by the crips he'd prolly be sleeping on the floor or run out the house by the end of his 1st day in there. Each inmate is allowed phone time. Yet the goon who runs the house (not the CO) is usually the one who regulates the phone. Some goons who are on some dictator schit even sleep with the receiver and take it off the line when they feel like it. If you don't got props in the room but you're lucky, you might be given "Dougie Fresh" (which means 6mins) LOL. From the old skool song lyrics "6 mins Dougie Fresh you're on" LOL. If you go over that 6mins, you might get your jaw broke or your dome cut wit your head stitched up looking like "Mr. Met" LOL
I found this damned fascinating, man. Any other interesting information you want to throw at us? I don't think I'm alone when I say this was one of the best realgm posts of the year.
