Dallas, Texas but living in Houston, Texas
:unimpressed:

All those points are negated for claiming a baby by a bytch he never even fukked. Between that and fetishing a bytch that kidnapped him, he was a soft ass simp

:scust:

1. He adapted to living in the hood at Jazz apartment in Compton, and damn near became royalty in the hood
2. He checked Will’s girl Janet (Vivica Fox) about her attitude towards Will. Then she wanted him
3.He got Bell Biv Devoe to shoot a music video for him
4.When he OD’ed on pills he got from Will he aint snitch
5. He was ready to fight Riddikk Bowe the Heavyweight Champ
6. He fukked a man’s wife then got him to get him into Princeton
7. He knocked out Will for taking his bytch
8. He called Glen Plummer a sellout at his own frat house for stereotyping him as corny/whitewashed. Basically said don’t let this Brooks Brother GQ swag fool you
9. When Will got clapped, he was the first to grab a gun

He was the realest on Fresh Prince:yeshrug: even tho Will was supposedly the “cool” one from the hood; he always tried to be something he wasn’t. Carlton stuck to his principles and adapted in any weather.

I wouldn't say he adapted but he was always himself and never tried to fake the funk. That man loved Tom Jones and was not scared to show it around anyone.

Now the realest was Jazz. :ufdup:

That man knew he was not welcome in that house and came around anyway. that was some bruh man shyt. :martin:

Heaven on Earth
Carlton represented an idealistic view of a Black conservative and Will was a Black liberal.

The family unit vs the single mom. The strong work ethic vs the playboy that wanted to take short cuts.

Someone wrote an essay breaking it all down a few years ago. I didn’t realize it as a kid but watching the show recently the messaging is really obvious. They weren’t even trying to hide it.

Will came from a world where the women controlled everything (feminism) and Uncle Phil has to teach him how to be a man.

Nope. Coddled, complacent in the "safety" afforded him by his parents, and blind as fck. Entitled and infected.



Carlton: The police were doing their job. We were detained a couple hours, and dad came and got us out. The system worked.

Will: I hope you like that system, because you're gonna be seeing a lot more of it in your life.
