Soon after his mother's funeral, Carl discovers that another part of his family (and former gang, the Grove Street Families) are having difficulties with some competitors. Karl finds himself drawn back into the street of gangster life, apparently, at one point he tried to give it all up in the past.

Hernandez does not agree with the methods of Tenpenny and Pulaski, and later tries to expose them. Tenpenny soon discovers and Hernandez pays the cost.

Officer Hernandez, voiced by Armando Riesco, who acted similarly in GTA Vice City and Midnight Club II. Riesko similarly made some pedestrian voices in GTA San Andreas.

Woozie
Cool, relaxed and collected. Suggested simply as "Woozie" by his comrades, this is Oriental gentlement heads up The Mountain Cloud Boys-A Triad gang. Woozie is blind, but he trained his own senses to such an extent that you would not see his handicap. He is proud of his abilities as an experienced race car driver and golf pro.

The blood feather triad has been one hundred percent destroyed, and now they intend to hit Farley. Wu Zi Mu is obliged to carry out a memory on Mr. Farley in order to guarantee his place in the Red Gekko Tong.

However, he doesn’t tell much (in fact, he doesn’t tell anything at all - just an occasional grunt) RAS Fa Li is voiced by Hunter Platin. Platin performed a similar voice in Manhunt, Midnight Club II, GTA Vice City and Grand Theft Auto 3.

Su Xi Mu
Often referred to simply as Susie. Su Xi Mu can help Woozie and RAS Fa Li, and assumes the Triads basically. His main place of work is located in a bookmaker's market in Chinatown, San Fierro.

Fiery. Cesar Vialpando's cousin is the most intimidating female hero in the GTA3 series.

Catalina is in love with Karl, despite her bad disposition towards him. She proceeds to date Claude Speed, the "snake without a tongue" (widely recognized as the GTA3 Guy). The two prepare to move to Liberty City. Powerful, unhealthy, constantly looking for interest.

Catalina is voiced by Cynthia Farrell, who similarly played Catalina in GTA 3 (2001).

Claude's playfulness
“A snake without a tongue.” We are able, after all, to put a name on the main protagonist of GTA3. Claude is currently dating Catalina, a crazy bitch (as Carl adores her) living in Fern Ridge, Red County. Claude is a talented street racer. Carl beats him in a suburban race and is rewarded with business in a garage in San Fierro, which, to his amazement, is running downhill and no one wants. Claude prepares to move to Liberty City with Catalina.

As in Tera (2001), Claude does not speak a single word and therefore has the voice of an actor.

Mark "B-Dup" Wayne
OG B-Dup recently (and suspiciously) moved out of his own Ganton home and into the Glen Park area - balla. Gossip implies that he drifted apart from the knocking gang and into "the rest of the activies." Allegations of false imprisonment and kidnapping of comrades persist. I often saw up close with Barry the “huge bear” Thorne, whom he pumped up.

B-Doop is voiced by Jayceon Taylor, who is referred to as "the video game". The video game was born into the lives of a gang of banging and fussing—his dad being Crazy Block Crip and his mom Hoover Crippelette. He remembers how he saw his ancestors preparing for the journey.

Jeffrey "OG Loc" Martin
Wannabe gangsta rapper Jeffrey Martin. No criminal record, apart from a couple of unpaid parking tickets, but, of course, no danger to society. Stay away from his music. Speaking about his own music, he released only one album, “Straight from Tha Streetz,” which he recorded shortly after returning from prison. At the same time that some say that he was the worst rapper in history, others say that this is a completely new image of hip-hop. The exceptional person who prevents him from becoming a star is Maddog (or so he thinks).

OG Locke, voiced by Jonathan Anderson, who starred in the movie The Fountainhead in 2002.

Maxer
Actor from Manchester, UK. A former member of boozy Manchester dance group The Gurning Chimps, Maccer was once a millionaire poster boy for hedonism. A “return tour” is currently planned. Born in Salford in 1965, Maxer made partying a lifestyle, and hard partying a religion. He invented a musical image that became known as "very baggy." There are no drugs, he didn’t try it, he didn’t practice any form of lynching, and he didn’t break any musical taboos. Check the Maccer official web portal, here.

First seen during the quest mission Las Venturas, in which Paul and his old friend Maxer are stuck in the Arco del Oueste as a result of one of the "adventures" of the truth. It appears that there are connections with Ken Rosenberg and the crowd at Caligula's Palace casino. Maxer often calls him "Paulo" and "P".

Kent Paul is voiced by Denny Dyer, who similarly played Kent Paul in GTA Vice City (2002). Dyer began his acting career in 1993.

Ken Rosenberg
Simply referred to as "Rosie" by his comrades. Ken, just like he was in Vice City, has no confidence and suffers from severe psychological depression for the sake of a troublesome mafia gang. Leon and Sindacco are not in a position to decide who should run Caligula's casino, and for this reason Rosie is put forward as a neutral party. If one family attacks another, the opposition will kill Ken. For the sake of the drug problem, Ken can no longer work with the law. It appears that there are connections with Maxer, Kent Paul and Madd Dogg.

Ken Rosenberg is voiced by Bill Fichtner, who began his acting career in 1987 and also played Ken Rosenberg in GTA Vice City (2002).

Salvatore-Leone
Don Salvatore Leone makes his 2nd appearance in the Grand Theft Auto series. Leone returns to the series with his girlfriend Maria and his gang, the Leone family. Salvatore agreed to collaborate with the Sindacco family and launch a casino in Venturas. This is due to the fact that Salvatore promised $5,000,000 to Shindako, for this reason he cannot afford to allow Shindako to cheat him. Forelli will similarly take part and will use every good chance they see to eliminate their opponents.

Salvatore is voiced by Frank Vincent, who similarly played Salvatore in Grand Theft Auto III (2001) and starred in the 1990 film "Goodfellas."

Jethro & Dwaine
Jethro works at the Xoomer gas station in Easter Basin, San Fierro. He appears to have a severe drug problem. Dwayne runs a hot dog joint close to the tram terminal in Kings. Business is slow and he soon finds himself working with hid old pal Jethro for CJ's garage in Doherty. Both heroes were introduced in GTA Vice City, in which Vercetti bought his own shipping business.

Jethro is voiced by John Zurhellen and Dwaine is voiced by Navid Khonsari. Both were featured in GTA Vice City, Manhunt and Max Payne.

Mike Toreno
Toreno is in charge of the Loco Syndicate. Toreno, a shadowy CIA agent, owns a ranch in Tierra Robada, north of Garver Bridge. Toreno blackmails Carl into helping him with his international drug smuggling schemes. Mike has a lot of opponents, and he uses CJ as his own shield. Constantly watching. It appears that there are connections with T-Bone Mendez, Jizzy B, Ryder and Big Smoke.

Mike Toreno provided the voice of James Woods, who won the Best Entertainer section of the Oscar for the role of Richard Boyle in the film Salvador (1986).

T-Bone Mendez
The T-bone is the muscle of the Loco Syndicate. T-Bone made time for the dark resin run from Mexico. He killed 2 men inside.

T-Bone Mendez, voiced by Kid Frost, is an East Los Angeles Mexican rapper - best known for his song "The Sun Don't Shine" from the movie "Americanize Me."

Jizzy B
Jizzy can help set up a deal for Loco Syndicate, but says his cut is very small. He runs the "Jizzy Pleasure Domes" in Juniper Hollow, San Fierro, a premium destination for adult entertainment (stuffing stuff into other people's panties). Jizzy is considered one of the biggest pimps and hustlers on the West Coast. It appears that he has connections with T-Bone Mendez, Mike Toreno and other drug dealers. The most powerful.

The Sperm Giant is voiced by Charlie Murphy, Eddie Murphy's brother. Murphy began his acting career in 1989 when he played Jimmy in "Harlem Nights."

Maddog
Maddog the recording artist is a local legend. He experienced a huge personal tragedy when his leader was killed, and turned to alcohol and drugs (cocaine). He owns a house in Mulholland, Los Santos. Maddog is by no means seen on the streets and has nothing to do with gangs. Albums include "Huslin' Like Gangstaz," "Still Madd" and "Forty Dogg." According to OG Loc, Maddog is the only person stopping him from becoming a big star.

Maddog voices Ice T, the hip-hop artist is best known as the daddy of gangsta music, which spawned the careers of artists like N.W.A., Snoop Dogg and the Geto Boys.

Zero
Zero is a 28-year-old electronics geek who runs an RC shop in Garcia, San Fierro. It delivers reality statements on a scale of 1/10. Zero insists that this is not a toy market. Currently fighting with rival supplier RC Berkley. Berkeley, hell-bent on revenge, cared zero because he had been beaten up at a science fair years ago. It appears that there are connections with the Zim and the Triads.

Zero is voiced by David Cross, who began his acting career in 1992 when he starred in the film Amelia Earhart: Final Flight (1994). Cross similarly starred in "Scary Movie 2", "Men in Black II" and voice-acted in "Halo 2" in the same year he made GTA San Andreas.

A measured, measured and measured man is a hippie! Of course he drives a rather special looking hippie van which he calls the "Mothership". Among the companions are Jethro and Dwayne, who are similarly considered hippies. They met in fierro Lovin "89, probably. It appears that he is connected with Officer Tenpenny.

Voiced, of course, by Peter Fonda, who began his acting career in 1961 when he played the role of doctor Mark Cheswick in the movie Tammy Tell Me the Truth. In 1969, Fonda produced and costarred in the definitive anti-1960s statement, Easy Horseman, for which he shared an Academy Merit nomination for best original screenplay.

Old Rice
Reece is CJ's hairstylist—first seen in "Ryder" mission at Old Reece's facial hair company in Idlewood. Rice has been the main source of news in Idlewood for many years, for this reason, if you need information, visit him.

Rice gives different hairstyles, some of which include dripping Jheri curls, a stylish afro and a tall flathead. Rhys knew Beverly, Carl's late mother.

Brian And Beverly Johnson
Brian was Carl's younger brother who died in a tragedy 5 years ago. Carl allowed Brian to die, and Sweet condemned Carl for his death. Beverly is CJ's deceased mother. She was killed by chance while riding Balla, shooting while they were essentially out for sweets. She was always very proud of her own children.

These 2 heroes are not in the video game, however they were mentioned in a couple of versions.

Maria
Maria is a returning hero from Grand Theft Auto III. Her importance in GTA San Andreas is quite small compared to her role in Grand Theft Auto III, but she is only there to tie up loose ends into novellas and demonstrate how she is connected to Salvatore.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas characters in real life.

Carl Johnson, nicknamed "CJ", is the main character of the game. One of the leaders of the African-American street gang "Grove Street Families" in the city of Los Santos. After the death of his younger brother Brian in 1987, Carl leaves Los Santos and moves to Liberty City. There he works for Joey Leone, the son of Salvatore, boss of the Leone mafia family. In 1992, Carl returns to his hometown in Los Santos after the death of his mother, Beverly. Cj learned about the murder of his mother from his older brother Sweet. In Los Santos, Carl is met by Frank Tenpenny and Eddie Pulaski, a pair of corrupt cops. The officers drive Carl through Ballasamy territory and throw CJ out of the moving police car and promise that they will keep an eye on him.
Soon after burying his mothers, Carl discovers that the rest of his family (and former gang, the Grove Street families) are having difficulties with some rivals. Carl finds himself drawn back into the street of gangster life, apparently having once tried to leave it all behind him. Realizing that things won't go as quickly as he expected, Carl travels throughout the state of San Andreas to take control of the streets and save his family.
Carl Johnson is voiced by Chris "young Maylay" Bellard, a young rapper who hopes to capitalize on the success of GTA San Andreas.

Ryder chooses to drive CJ, and does not forgive him for the 5 years he spent in Liberty City. Ryder tries to set up his business with T-Bone Mendez, Mike Toreno and Jizzy B (all members of the Loco Syndicate). Disloyal and greedy.

Ryder is voiced by MC Eiht, the lead rapper of Compton's Most Wanted. He starred in the film Menace II Society in 1993.

Corrupt cop. Considered to be a respectable officer when he is infected by a maniacal bully who has been bothering CJ since he left for Liberty City. Tenpenny heads the LSPD's anti-gang unit known as C.R.A.S.H. Despite his dislike for CJ, he will always find an excuse to keep him alive. Often accompanied by Officer Pulaski. Tenpenny and Pulaski built their own criminal empire, taking out anyone who stood in their way. Believed to be involved in racketeering, corruption, drugs and sexual violence. The pair silenced Officer Ralph Pendelbury after he threatened to turn over state evidence. The death is said to have occurred in a "non-gang related incident." Independent, powerful and ruthless.

Tenpenny's right hand. Pulaski (also a member of the corrupt C.R.A.S.H) has wanted to kill CJ for years, but Tenpenny always finds an excuse to keep him alive. Powerful and ruthless when accompanied by his superior, but we soon discover that he is attacked by a coward.

Wu Zi Mu

Cool, calm and collected. Suggested as simply "Woozie" by his friends, this is Oriental gentlement heads up The Mountain Cloud Boys-A Triad gang. Woozie is blind, although he has trained his senses to such an extent that you wouldn't notice his handicap. He prides himself on his abilities as an accomplished race car driver and golf pro. Woozie must protect his superior, ran Fa Li, and eliminate his viatnamese rivals (Da Nang Boys) to secure his place in the Red Gecko Tong. Woozie now runs the Four Dragons casino in Las Venturas, but the Sindacco family wants to sabotage its opening. Blessed with "incredible luck."

Barry "Big Bear" Thorne

Barry, often referred to as "the big bear," is one of the older members of the Grove Street family. Big Bear is very loyal to the hood. Often seen next to OG B-Dup, who managed to pump him up. Because of this, B Dup controls the bear's life and forces him to perform his duties. The bear is currently in a terrible state due to his drug addiction.

Big Bear is voiced by Big Boy, who hosts a radio show on Los Angeles power station 105.9 FM. He moved to Los Angeles at the age of 2.

Cesar is obsessed with stolen cars, and heads the Varios Los Aztecas, a gang that is currently shrinking. A man of honor and integrity who eventually leads Cesar and Carl to become close friends. He always looks at CJ and vice versa. Caesar is Catalina's cousin.

Cesar is voiced by Clifton Collins. Collins began his acting career in 1991 and starred in the film Menace II Society in 1993.

Fiery. Cesar Vialpando's cousin is the most intimidating female character in the GTA3 series. Catalina lives in an isolated cabin in Fern Ridge, Red County—complete with freshly dug graves in the backyard. Obsessed with robbery. Catalina is in love with Karl, despite her bad attitude towards him. She begins dating Claude Speed, the "snake without a tongue" (commonly known as the GTA3 Guy). The couple prepares to move to Liberty City. Strong, sick, constantly seeking attention.

Catalina is voiced by Cynthia Farrell, who also played Catalina in GTA 3 (2001).

"Snake without a tongue." We can finally put a name on the main character of GTA3. Claude is currently dating Catalina, a crazy bitch (as Carl loves her) living in Fern Ridge, Red County. Claude is a talented street racer. Carl defeats him in a country race and is rewarded with business in a garage in San Fierro, which, to his surprise, is running downhill and no one wants. Claude prepares to move to Liberty City with Catalina.

As in Tera (2001), Claude did not say a single word and therefore has the voice of an actor.

Mark "B-Dup" Wayne

OG B-Dup recently (and suspiciously) moved out of his Ganton home and into the Glen Park - balla area. Rumors suggest that he drifted apart from the gang to snitch and into "other activies." Allegations of false imprisonment and kidnapping of friends persist. I often saw next to Barry "the big bear" Thorne, whom he pumped up.

B-Doop is voiced by Jayceon Taylor, who is referred to as "The Game". The game was born into the lives of a gang of pounding and hustling—his father being Nutty Block Crip and his mother Hoover Crippelette. He remembers seeing his parents preparing for the drive-through.

Jeffrey "OG Loc" Martin

Wannabe gangsta rapper Jeffrey Martin. No criminal record other than a few unpaid parking tickets, but certainly no threat to the community. Stay away from his music. Speaking of his music, he has only released one album, "Straight from Tha Streetz", which he recorded shortly after returning from prison. While some say he was the worst rapper in history, others say he is a whole new style of hip-hop. The only person stopping him from becoming a star is Maddog (or so he thinks).

OG Locke, voiced by Jonathan Anderson, who starred in the 2002 film The Fountainhead.

Artist from Manchester, England. A former member of boozy Manchester dance group The Gurning Chimps, Maccer was once a millionaire poster boy for hedonism. A "comeback tour" is currently being planned. Born in Salford in 1965, Maxer made partying a lifestyle, and hard partying a religion. He invented a musical style that became known as "extremely baggy." There are no drugs, he didn’t try it, he didn’t practice any form of lynching, and he didn’t break any musical taboos. Check Maccer official website, .

First seen during the mission Las Venturas, where Paul and his old friend Maxer are stranded in the Arco del Oueste as a result of one of the truth's "adventures". Believed to have connections to Ken Rosenberg and the crowd at Caligula's Palace Casino, Maxer often calls him "Paulo" and "P".

Kent Paul is voiced by Denny Dyer, who also played Kent Paul in GTA Vice City (2002). Dyer began his acting career in 1993.

Simply called "Rosie" by his friends. Ken, just like he was in Vice City, has no confidence and suffers from severe mental depression due to the troublesome mafia gang. Leon and Sindacco can't decide who should run Caligula's casino, so Rosie is put forward as a neutral party. If one family hits the other, the opposition will destroy Ken. Due to his drug problem, Ken can no longer work with the law. Believed to have connections to Maxer, Kent Paul and Madd Dogg.

Ken Rosenberg is voiced by Bill Fichtner, who began his acting career in 1987 and also played Ken Rosenberg in GTA Vice City (2002).

Don Salvatore Leone makes his second appearance in the Grand Theft Auto series. Leone returns to the series with his girlfriend Maria and his gang, the Leone family. Salvatore agreed to join forces with the Sindacco family and open a casino in Venturas. This is because Salvatore promised $5,000,000 to Shindaco, so he can't afford to let Shindako screw him over. Forelli are also involved and will take advantage of any good opportunity they see to eliminate their enemies.

Salvatore is voiced by Frank Vincent, who also played Salvatore in Grand Theft Auto III (2001) and starred in the 1990 film "Goodfellas."

Toreno runs the Loco Syndicate. Toreno, a shadowy CIA agent, owns a ranch in Tierra Robada, north of Garver Bridge. Toreno blackmails Carl into helping him with his international drug smuggling schemes. Mike has many enemies and uses CJ as his shield. Always watching. There are believed to be connections to T-Bone Mendez, Jizzy B, Ryder and Big Smoke.

Mike Toreno is voiced by James Woods, who scored a Best Actor Oscar nomination for his role as Richard Boyle in Salvador (1986).

Jizzy B

Jizzy helps set up trades for Loco Syndicate, but claims his cut is too small. He runs the "Jizzy Pleasure Domes" in Juniper Hollow, San Fierro—a premium destination for adult entertainment (shoving money in other people's panties). Jizzy is one of the biggest pimps and hustlers on the West Coast. He is believed to have ties to T-Bone Mendez, Mike Toreno and other drug traffickers. Powerful.

The Sperm Giant is voiced by Charlie Murphy, Eddie Murphy's brother. Murphy began his acting career in 1989 when he played Jimmy in "Harlem Nights."

Maddog the recording artist is a local legend. He suffered a great personal tragedy when his manager was killed and turned to alcohol and drugs (cocaine). He owns a mansion in Mulholland, Los Santos. Maddog has never been seen on the streets and has no gang affiliations. Albums include "Huslin' Like Gangstaz," "Still Madd" and "Forty Dogg." According to OG Loc, Maddog is the only person stopping him from becoming a huge star.

Maddog is the voice of Ice T, a hip-hop artist well known as the father of gangsta music, which spawned the careers of artists such as N.W.A., Snoop Dogg and the Geto Boys.

Zero is a 28-year-old electronics geek who runs an RC shop in Garcia, San Fierro. It supplies 1/10 scale reality replicas. Zero insists that it is Not a toy shop.

A calm, calm and calm person - a hippie! Truth drives a rather unusual looking hippie van which he calls the "Mothership". Friends include Jethro and Dwayne, who are also hippies. They met in fierro Lovin "89, apparently. He is believed to be related to Officer Tenpenny.

True, voiced by Peter Fonda, who began his acting career in 1961 when he played the role of Dr. Mark Cheswick in the film Tammy Tell Me the Truth. In 1969, Fonda produced and costarred in the definitive anti-1960s statement, Easy Horseman, for which he shared an Academy Award nomination for best original screenplay.

The article was taken and crookedly translated from one English-language site dedicated to GTA San Andreas

Any time (but not during a mission). When the character is not being played, he goes about his daily affairs. Some missions in GTA 5 require only one character, some require two, and on some missions three heroes go at once. During missions where the hero is not alone, sometimes it will be necessary to switch. The presence of several characters at once plays an important role in the structure of tasks, which makes the gameplay richer.

In this IGN article, Andrew Goldfab wrote: “During missions, players will be able to combine the efforts of all three characters, each with a different set of skills. For example, during one robbery, Michael climbs down the side of a building while Franklin covers him from afar with a sniper rifle, and Trevor flies nearby in a helicopter. Players can switch back and forth between Michael, who is "rummaging around" inside the building, and Franklin, who is "taking down" enemies. At the end, you can switch to Trevor, pick up everyone and escape by helicopter, or shoot all the enemy pilots as Michael. Well, or drive away in a car, shooting back for Michael.”

Michael De Santa

Successful bank robber. “Retired” and now lives comfortably under the witness protection program. He has a difficult relationship with his wife Amanda, and his children Tracy and Jimmy are constantly doing something that defies understanding. He used to do robbery with Trevor. At that time he still bore his real name, Townley. Prior to the game's release, it was believed that this character would be named "Albert De Silva", a reference to Kevin De Silva.

Franklin Clinton


Franklin works for Armenian Semyon Yetaryan, who sells luxury cars. His job is to confiscate the cars of customers who cannot pay for them. He hangs out with his crazy and childish friends, his best friend's name is Lamar. Having met Michael, he sees how different life can be. Then he lights up with the desire to leave the streets forever and get rich.

Trevor Philips


A crazy drug addict, a former military pilot who now lives in a trailer in the middle of the desert. He definitely doesn't have everything at home. Trevor grew up in Canada, but apparently lived most of his life in the US, so he speaks with a slight accent. Prior to release, this character was named "Simon".

Main characters:

Lester Crest

Another longtime accomplice of Michael and Trevor. He used to help them plan robberies and now he's back at it again. Can access any information. He loves video games even more than movies.

Mercenaries:

Gustavo Mota

Gustavo Mota is a Latino, professional fighter, member of the Vagos gang. Gustavo is a great weapons expert, making him one of the best marksmen in the game, but he also demands the highest share of all fighters at 14%.

Eddie Toh

Eddie Tou is a Chinese professional criminal. Provides the gang with transportation and finds the best escape routes after robberies. Has the highest driving skills. Requires a share of 14% of production.

Paige Harris

Professional hacker. The best hacker in the game, and therefore demands a share of 15% of the production. Works well with both computers and alarms.

Other characters:

Ashley Butler

A member of the Lost biker gang, she came to Los Santos from Liberty City with Terry, Clay and her boyfriend Johnny. When you look at her, it's immediately clear that she has a problem with methamphetamine.

Aunt Denise

A staunch feminist. Franklin's housemate.

Bradley Snider

Was once the third member of Michael and Trevor's gang. As far as Trevor knows, Bradley is in prison, but that may not be the case.

His profession speaks for itself. Masters controversial yoga poses.

Harold "Stretch Joseph"

Franklin's old "friend", recently released from prison.

Johnny Klebitz

Came to Los Santos from Liberty City with Terry, Clay and his girlfriend Ashley. Methamphetamine addict. This character was also in previous games in the series: Grand Theft Auto IV The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Martin Madrazo

Leads a Mexican-American drug gang. He almost answered according to the law for his crimes, but the witnesses suddenly disappeared somewhere. Due to some misunderstanding, Michael owed Martin a certain amount of money. Stealing the jewelry should help Franklin settle the deal.

At the time of release GTA: San Andreas became the record holder for the number of invited actors to voice the game - no other game project could boast of the figure of 339 people. Quantity does not always mean quality, but we exclude SA from this rule, because the actors did a wonderful job, and everything turned out atmospheric.

Despite various rumors that the protagonist was voiced by comedian Dave Chappelle or rapper 50 Cent, CJ received his voice from Christopher Bellard, better known as rapper Young Maylay. You can know him from his collaborations with such performers as Ice Cube, WC and others. In appearance, the actor and the hero are almost dissimilar, apparently due to the fact that Karl bears a resemblance to Michael Washington, which caused a scandal and legal battles quite recently.


Christopher Bellard and Carl Johnson.

After working on the game, Chris released his first music release, the title of which was "San Andreas: The Original Mixtape". The cover is stylized as the SA cover. The tracks featured music from the game, including the title theme song.


The same cover of "San Andreas: The Original Mixtape".


Pre-release illustration by Carl Johnson.

The role of Shawn Johnson, better known as Sweet, was assigned to actor Faizon Love, who played in such films as Elf, Friday and Torque. This is his first and so far last experience in the gaming industry.


Freyzon Love and Sweet.


Illustration with beta version of Sweet.

The voice of Melvin Harris, better known as Big Smoke, was played by actor Clifton Powell. His track record includes the role of Sean in 50 Cent's film "Before I Self-Destruct", the role of Earl in the comedy "Norbit", the role of Luke in the film "Rush Hour", the role of Chauncey in the drama "Menace to Society", roles in the series "M.D. ", "Law and Order", "Crime Scene" and a little more than a hundred roles.


Clifton Powell and Big Smoke in an alternate colorway.

Like most heroes, Big Smoke also had a beta version that can be seen in the game: in the last mission, there is a traitor statue in Smoke's hideout.


Beta version of Big Smoke.

The Johnson brothers' only sister, Candle, was voiced by Yolanda Whitaker, also known in the hip-hop world as Yo-Yo. The girl tried on more than 15 roles, including the role in “Menace to Society.” In music, she had more success, releasing 5 studio albums (though one of them remained unreleased), 2 EPs and about 14 singles.


Yolanda Whitaker and Candle Johnson.

Another rapper, MC Eiht, gave the voice to another prominent character - Lance Wilson (aka Ryder), who took part in the filming of Menace to Society and several other films. He has 14 solo and eight joint albums to his credit. There is no doubt that when working on the character's appearance, the developers used the appearance of the late rapper Eazy-E.


On the right is MC Eiht, on the left is a comparison of the appearance of Ryder and Eazy-E.

Clifton Collins Jr., who voiced Caesar Vialpando, has appeared in projects such as Crank 2, CSI, and Public Menace alongside Yo-Yo, Clifton Powell.


Clifton Collins Jr. and Caesar Vialpando.

The voice of Jeffrey Cross, also known as OG Loc, belongs to actors Jonathan Anderson. It is possible that this character is a parody of rapper Ja Rule, who was suspected of stealing rhymes and other style features of another rapper under the pseudonym DMX. Looking ahead, it should be noted that another rapper took part in the scoring of the game, who at that time was on the same label as 50 Cent, who at that time had a beef (feud between two rappers) with Ja Rule. So this could be a cleverly designed joke, who knows...


Jonathan Anderson and OG Loc while working at Burger Shot.

Famous actor Peter Fonda, who can be remembered for his role as Mephistopheles in the film “Ghost Rider,” voiced the old hippie nicknamed Truth.


Peter Fonda and Truth.

A truly outstanding actor gave the voice to Mike Toreno, as James Woods played leading roles in such masterpieces as Once Upon a Time in America and Casino. He also starred in the film Scary Movie 2 and worked on the creation of the games Kingdom Hearts II (as well as its sequel) and Scarface: The World Is Yours, and also worked as a voice actor on the cartoon Catch the Wave!


James Woods and Mike Toreno.

The blind head of the triads, Wu Zi Mu, was voiced by Japanese-born actor James Yagashi, who also worked on the BioShock game, giving the voice to Dr. Suchong, and later on GTA 4, giving the voice to Charlie, an undercover LCPD agent. In the "four" in Chinatown you can hear the phrase "My cousin owns a casino in Las Venturas. Maybe we should move there."


James Yagashi and Wu Zi Mu.

Another hip-hop figure voiced a hero with his own profession. We are talking about the dubbing of Madd by rapper Dogg by the legendary performer Ice T, whose musical achievements are not worth talking about again. In addition to regular roles in television and film projects, Treacy Morrow took part in the games Sanity, Aiken's Artifact and Scarface: The World Is Yours, and is currently working on Gears of War 3. It is noticeable that in some ways Ice T became the prototype for Madd Dogg.

The alias Madd Dogg may be based on the nickname of Vincent Call, an Irish hitman. There is also an option of origin that the phrase appeared after combining the name Snoop Dogg and the previous name (“Mad Doc”) of the now related company “Rockstar New England”.

The main antagonist of the game, officer Frank Tenpenny, received his voice from the most popular actor Samuel L. Jackson, who can be considered a giant of the film industry. Suffice it to recall the films “Goodfellas”, “Menace to Society”, “Jurassic Park”, “Pulp Fiction”, “Die Hard 3”, “Star Wars” (four films), “51st State”, “Kill Bill 2”, “The Incredibles” (cartoon dubbing), “xXx 2: The New Level”, two parts of “Iron Man”, “Thor” and others. In addition, he voiced roles in the games Iron Man 2 and Lego Star Wars 3: The Clone Wars. Amazing fact: Jackson is currently working on three films ("Captain America", "Avengers" and "Nick Fury"), where the actor will play the same character he played in both parts of "Iron Man" (and once voiced the game) and "Tore" - Nick Fury.

Officer Eddie Pulaski was voiced by the quite recognizable actor Chris Penn, who played in the film "Rush Hour", the TV series "CSI", "Law and Order", as well as in other projects. Unfortunately, at the age of 40, Christopher died.

Armando Riesco, who voiced another officer, Jimmy Hernandez, received a small but important role. Perhaps the only film from the actor’s short track record that can say something to the average viewer is “National Treasure,” where he played the role of FBI agent Hendrix. Riesko was more successful in scoring games. The first experience of this kind was working on Vice City, where he voiced the minor role of a supplier. By the way, after the role of Hernandez (and part-time he also voiced ordinary pedestrians) in San Andreas, Armando worked on The Ballad of Gay Tony, giving a voice to the average parking attendant. As you can see, the history of his appearances in the series is very interesting. But in addition to GTA, Riesco voiced such popular games as Midnight Club 2, The Warriors, Need for Speed: Undercover and Need for Speed: World.

The goofy Zero was voiced by David Cross, who, among other things, appeared in Scary Movie 2 (the role of Dwight) and Men in Black. However, he achieved more in voice acting, working on the film "Doctor Dolittle" (the voice of the dog), the animated series "Family Guy" (episodic role), the cartoons "Kung Fu Panda", "Futurama: The Beast with Billions of Backs", "Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Furious Five", "Alvin and the Chipmunks 2", "Megamind" (the role of Minion), "Kung Fu Panda Holiday Special", "Megamind: The Doom Button", "Kung Fu Panda 2" and many others. Also participated in the creation of the game Halo 2.

The brutal bandit named (or nicknamed) T-Bone Mendez was voiced by Los Angeles rapper of Mexican origin Kid Frost. Perhaps his track record as an actor does not include many roles, but as a musician, Kid is doing well. By the way, the radio station Radio Los Santos plays the song “La Raza” performed by him.

Mendez wears a unique jersey that is not found anywhere else in the game, although there are similar ones. Such shirts were worn by members of Mexican gangs for 30 years: from the 1970s to the late 1990s. By the way, it is unknown whether T-Bone Mendez is related to the Mendez brothers from Vice City Stories. Rock musician and vocalist Shaun Ryder, a member of the band Black Grape, voices Meisser, who regularly appears in the game along with Kent Paul. Sean participated in the creation of the soundtrack for the films “The Devil Wears Prada”, “Goal” and others.
