Everywhere...You never there.
Greenville is way worst than Goldsboro IMO.


Kinston is a ghost town. They are wasting the tax payers dollars on building up Queen street and trying to build around the Neuse Center :mjpls:

I remember going to the Imagination Station on that street back in the day. Kinston has nothing now. Especially after losing the Indians.

Wilmington is dope but its all old money people from NJ/MD/CT etc. that are really pumping the cash into that town. The locals (black mainly) are just as broke as the rest of the ENC and have the same shytty job prospects.

I could go on about all the backwards shyt in ENC all day.

Homie, the black hoods near downtown are depressing as fukk in Wilmington. you see all the build up that's happening there, and the backdrop of the beach, then you see the hood with an underclass that can't even enjoy that shyt. :smh:


there's really starting to be a rift in NC where low-income blacks are being banished to a perpetual underclass. Well, I guess it's no different than any other state, but NC's rich black, entrepreneurial history, especially in ENC just makes it seem so fukked up.

Heard that about Kinston, too. :smh:

If you're black in Kinston, get the fukk out. Period.


I'll tell you another ENC city that ain't about shyt... Elizabeth City. :smh: Black folks go to Virginia for jobs.

LIke you said, I'm sure we both can go on and on naming cities in ENC that need immediate help.

Really? :dahell:
All I ever hear about G-Vegas is East Carolina University and how much partying goes on in the town because of them.


It's depressing man. When you think about all the people who will forever be trapped in those towns, not knowing any better, not ever knowing/seeing anything different, never having opportunities..it's crazy.
The police in Pitt Country are notorious for not even trying to solve crimes :russ:

I know they have gotten better but when I lived in Pitt County good luck if some shyt happened.

@UserNameless You ever had those awkward moments in Mayfaire? They can't even hide it but won't say it :russ:

Anybody familiar with Northeastern North Carolina?

It's frustrating out here. The people who can leave, do so and the ones who can't, deal.

It's like a zombie state sometimes. It's like nobody cares and trying to convince folk otherwise is futile.

The job market sucks. The atmosphere sucks. The general life happiness sucks.

Also, if you ain't in good with people (family, close friends, church folk) you can about forget receiving much help.

You summed up Northeastern NC just right :wow:
You say zombie, I say twilight zone. I've said it for years - when you're traveling back to ENC from say the 919 area or something, it literally feels like you're entering a twilight zone of blight and misery. And it's like everybody is in some unspoken agreement that it's okay to live like that. Like, nobody gives a fukk :mindblown: and they even sometimes go so far as to argue that they're living a better life than anybody else could possibly be living anywhere else :dwillhuh:

Nothing but twilight zone. It's so palpable in the atmosphere. A bunch of "nothing" towns, full of poor Blacks and a few rich whites who control said town and hates the poor Black residents :wow:

The Blacks who do have any type of vision or success, get the fukk outta there as soon as they can and never look back, just like you said. Repeat that cycle over and over for decades and eventually you just deplete that town's talent pool for jobs/businesses/progression. All you have left in the towns are the people who are stuck there.

It's just hopeless out there.

:mjcry:Theres strength in numbers brehs. It's good that more black men are starting to see this. In order to fight the real enemy, we have to get on the same page and work together

:salute:
I may get negged and I'm sorry to inform you that these niccas will get back to killing each other, slinging hard drugs to their own people and having kids that they do not intend on providing for in no time. If a man can get to the point that he is so destructive that he can hate his brotha because he wears a different colored rag or lives in a different neighborhood, he can't be changed, he's already too far gone.

I used to hustle ot in this shyt hole town off 85 named Henderson. Right in vance county about 20 miles north of raleigh. Boy what a viscious cut throat city. I mean they treated me well but I was constantly watching my back. Home invasions, carjackings, high hiv rates, chronic unemployment you name it.

1. It wont last. It never does.


2. Black gangs aren't going anywhere, but if they must exist, they need to be more organized. Be like the mafia: do business with each other even if you dont like each other. They werent shooting up each other over little petty shyt. The problem is their egos are so out of whack with their reality
