Gerald “Prince” Miller shared the story of his early involvement with the Supreme Team during a recent episode of the Thanx4Askin Podcast, detailing how he rose to a leadership position within the infamous Southside Jamaica, Queens operation. Prince described starting under his uncle, Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff, learning the structure of the organization, and how loyalty, strategy, and careful decision-making shaped the group.
He explained that his path began with observation and learning, drawing parallels between strategic thinking in chess, a game he had played competitively since childhood, and navigating the complexities of street operations. Prince recounted his own early run-ins with the law, including a 1981 arrest that led to a prison sentence, after which he transitioned smoothly into the Supreme Team.
Prince emphasized that his rise was earned through proving himself on the streets, taking on responsibilities, and building relationships with key members of the team. His reflections highlight the structure, accountability, and internal dynamics that contributed to the team’s notoriety and influence in New York.
The episode provides listeners with a firsthand perspective on the Supreme Team, offering insight into one of the most talked-about street organizations in the city’s history and the personal journey of someone who lived it.
