Who is Wayne Silk Perry?
Wayne “Silk” Perry was considered one of the most notorious gangsters to run the streets of Washington, D.C. in the late ’80s and early ’90s. Ruthless, calculating and dangerous are just a few of the adjectives attached to his name. He was a professional head hunter and alleged killer until he became a Muslim and A Black Nationalist.
The Washington Post described Perry one of the District’s most heinous murderers. Jay-Z immortalized the gangster in rhyme in the song “Tom Ford”:
“This is my Wayne Perry flow/Y’all know nothing about Wayne Perry though.”
Perry was born in 1962 in Georgia. It didn’t take him long to get involved in the criminal world. In 2005, Perry told writer Seth Ferranti, who interviewed him for the book, “Street Legends, Vol. 1,” that he put his “first foot in the dirt in 1974,” when he was just 12 years old, Ozy reported. By 16, Perry said he was involved in illegal activities such as drug trafficking, violence and bank robberies.
By 1976, Perry told Ferranti he “was hustling on the street and gambling, using crooked dice and marked or cut cards.”
Perry acted as a hitman and bodyguard for Alberto “Alpo” Martinez, the Harlem drug lord who trafficked cocaine to Washington, according to law enforcement. Police said Perry killed witnesses, disloyal gang members and rival drug dealers.
