With the recent death of Harlem World group member Huddy Combs still in the air, VIBE rounded up the late 90's rap collective—Murda Mase and Islam convert Loon excluded—in Dumbo, Brooklyn, one month after the tragic car accident that took Huddy 6's life. The crew's main man, Blinky Blink, reminisced: "[Big] L, and Cam and Mase and all of us was from the same area. Huddy lived across the stress in Delonor, like 141st and Lexington Ave. His passing got us all working again. We trying to bring back Harlem World." They may be momentarily down, but looking ahead it seems like Harlem’s on the rise.
