I Was a Crip Inside New Jersey Prisons — The Truth I Never Told | Jahquan Allah
Jahquan Allah grew up in the heart of New Jersey, surrounded by poverty, violence, and gang life. At just 16, he caught his first gun charge and spent most of his 20s in and out of jail, surviving the brutal reality of life as a Crip inside New Jersey prisons. After serving six years on another gun charge and being released in 2023, Jahquan made a decision to change everything. Now free, he’s the founder of a fitness brand focused on discipline, redemption, and second chances. His story is a raw and powerful look into gang culture, prison survival, and the mindset it takes to rebuild your life after incarceration.
