It could be true but the voice speaks of someone much older. There aren't even that many adults who know how to use a proper semicolon. Unless it was proofread and edited before published then it just seems a bit too neat.

11 year old scholar, huh?

:dahell:
You don't have to be a scholar to know how to write coherent and grammatically correct sentences. The low expectations some of you have are ridiculous.

broke nikkas stand up.


There's a place by were I live called the Sommerset Collection. Here's the site.... there's a middle class kinda rich side.. then a skywalk to the rich side. http://www.thesomersetcollection.com/

I've always used to be on that other side when I was young and ignorant and out here gettin it. I remember seeing random hoodrats(refined) and nikkas buying items that don't display price tags.

Sure it's mostly white people and CAC - but lets not pretend that young blacks aren't out here buying 600 dollar belts n shyt.

It's Barney's, breh.

Are people really confused about what store this is? lol

These items are not marketed toward anybody but people who can afford it. And if this is the same thing he was in "trouble" for a few weeks back, it's for charity. When rich people fundraise, they don't go out and hold charity drives and shyt, they hold $6000 a plate dinners.

I have no idea why any regular person would be mad about this shyt. I don't really know the reason to wear a ski mask if you aren't skiing either. Even though I've always liked the look of them, I kinda knew it was a stupid idea to wear them, cept for in the winter.


:leostare: I went to PG County schools and my diction was excellent :wow:

That being said, that kid speaks nothing like any 14 year old I know.

That's not saying much...all 14 YOs aren't created equally.

Black people look weak as fukk crying over this shyt. How difficult is it to not shop at Barney's?? Always fukking complaining instead of actually doing something about it. And don't hate on jay for making moves.

Good points are made but it's still a little crabbish. Bashing Jay for this and Kanye for selling overpriced shyt instead of keeping it bargain bin for the hood while still supporting the Europeans who do it only keeps them rich without supporting our own. Nobody NEEDS high fashion, but if that was my thing, I'd at least feel better if someone who looked like me was making some noise in a field that the white man has been winning at for years :manny:
