The GTA Online Gangbanger Robbery is a Salvage Yard Robbery from The Chop Shop update. Jamal Amir has a tip-off from King Tiny, a podcast host and former Ballas member who is locked up at Mission Row Police Station, about a luxury car owned by a high-ranking gang member. You break King Tiny out first, then steal the car. The reward depends on the target vehicle.

How to unlock the Gangbanger Robbery
You need to own a Salvage Yard and finish the required preps. The robbery appears when it is one of the three contracts on offer at the yard’s computer.
Like every Salvage Yard Robbery, it can be replayed whenever it shows up on the Planning Computer. A replay swaps in a different target vehicle with a different backstory, and you no longer need to do the scope-out mission again.
