Cell 5M is an all-Bloods prison cell.
They was in the far corner of the cavernous thirty-man cell (with forty-two niggas in it), where some sheets bin strung up to give some privacy, right next to the bank of toilets, which was similarly set apart with walls of sheets.

But in the shower, his whole cell — twenty niggas — got shoved in at once, and they be usually sharing with some random whiteboys. Everyone with a solid gang behind them be showering with that gang, so the whiteboys in with the Bloods was unclaimed.
It took Tyrell awhile to realize what that meant. He knew it, on a intellectual level — without no gang behind them, those whiteboys was fair game. You could extort them for cash, make them smuggle shit in for you, whatever you want.
And you could pound they bootyhole.
That was what Tyrell ain’t realize. Outside of the shower, that was a whole big chore — you gotta get the whiteboy of your choice alone somewhere and tear into him without making enough noise to get caught.
But guards ain’t never go in the shower if they can help it, and it be loud enough in there that they ain’t gunna hear no sob-a-lobbing. And since the rules was different in there, Tyrell ain’t even gotta hide it from his niggas — it don’t count in the shower, and they ain’t allowed to say boo about it outside of there. And they damn sure ain’t allowed to tell a soul about it once they leave prison.From Tyrell the Mandingo
