Boosting #Polo by #RalphLauren is 'Played Out'


In the late 1970's and early 1980's, a small group of youngsters from Brooklyn formed a crew known as Lo Lives. The Lo Life crew was allegedly started by a guy who calls himself "Rack Lo." In that era, many inner city youth from parts of Brooklyn, particularly from the east Flatbush section, would band together and either ride the bus or most likely the NYC subway to Manhattan with intentions of boosting that Lo. Lo, meaning Polo by Ralph Lauren. Most of the Lo Lives from Brooklyn were so successful at boosting Lo that it became a full-time career for them and an addiction that spilled over into adulthood. Real heads from Flatbush who stayed rocking Lo:The cat everyone knew as "Tyson" F.P.K. (Flatbush Pulley Kids) Decepticons (Construc, Emerge, and N.B.C. - Nightbreed) P.B.S. (Paying Back Society - Dinker as leader) C.I.A.
