The Sunday Mail has been told that investigators believe gang entry has required some prospects to commit crimes.
However, the groups do not have organised initiations, like outlaw motorcycle gangs do.
A large contingent of the groups are of African descent who rap “disses” (disrespect) at rivals termed “opps”
(opponents), including threatening to bash or kill them if they come on to their turf.
They hold large knives and weapons in professionally filmed videos,
bragging about crimes, drugs and womenin the videos which have “entertainment” disclaimers in them
saying the material and characters are fictional.(

In
2021, police said an ongoing and violent feud between the two youth crews
left two teens in critical conditions.
The same year, an 18-year-old was left for dead on the roadside in Logan after the gangs clashed.
“My squad insane, spot an opp, we bust their brain,” one recent rap from SBG says.
“No tutoring ’cause n---er, this ain’t Major Payne. And when you run, don’t trip, cause you can end up in a frame. If you don’t want war with us, stay up in ya lane.”
Another recent video from SSD, titled Murder Scene, has a rapper saying:
“Don’t come to my block, it’s a murder scene, it’s too hot.”The videos also include
television and newspaper reports about the violent incidents.Investigators say the groups
also have older and smart members who have committed tax fraud and even used fraudulently obtained gift cards to buy their own songs online in a form of money laundering. In 2022, detectives from Uniform Knot
arrested 10 people aged 18 to 22 and charged them with fraud offences.Police at the time alleged the men had
defrauded the Australian Taxation Office of more than $1.8m.Officers
seized items including a BMW, cash, drugs, electronic equipment and designer clothing.The gangs are strongly linked to Victorian street gangs, with members travelling interstate to meet up
.Drill music originated in Chicago around 2010, with explicit lyrics associated with crime linked to street gangs.
The rise of drill music in the UK followed, and has largely influenced Australian groups.
Australian
drill videos first emerged in Sydney, with group Onefour the first to gain popularity.
Members have claimed their lyrics are based on real-life events growing up in tough neighbourhoods such as Mt Druitt in Sydney’s outer west.
