Gillie Da Kid's son Cheese shot and killed in Philly

[Malcolmxxx_23]

It's not, but you failed as a father if your son turns to the streets

You failed as a father when you support your son's rap career and all he talking about is street shyt

Shooting nikkas, flipping bricks

He saw Wallo go to jail for years for that dumb shyt

Damn Gilly looks, understandably, out of it.

If I lost my (2) kids take me off this Earf immediately

True

However, the way Gil talks about the streets and how he flexes about who he was in the streets

Gives me the impression that he is complicit

Nah, before he became as worldwide known, he used to always talk about Cheese being into knucklehead ish and what he'd tell him..and how he'd be trying to steer him out of it. Some of the posts were even before Wallo came home. So, he definitely wasn't with it...plus Gillie been out of the streets for like 15+yrs now.

His youngest son, Mac boxed when he was younger, graduated HS, went to college for a while...Cheese was just the one that was attracted to that way of life.

Mac grew up in Jersey, away from the bs. Cheese grew up in North with his mom and step pop. Even if Cheese had 2 parent home, he was right there with outside influences

You can't say that. You can give them all the tools, the information, the education, the wisdom, and the most you can do is still pray and that they live their life in a positive light.

They are going to make decisions that could alter the course of their life, regardless of what you tell them.

Yes, but the point is if Gillie was a regular dude, doing regular shyt, his son may not have went in that direction

It would be possible, but a lot less likely

How you going to tell your child, don’t do what I did, when you still reminisce on it sometimes, have rappers on your show who doing it, and what you did is still cool?

In all honesty, Philly isn't any worst now than it was in the 90's. We're just on a different side of the coin now, so we're paying more attention. Shyt, we were averaging 450+ when I was a teenager in the 90s.

Statistically post pandemic is the worst period in the history of Philadelphia.

Philadelphia never had 450 murders in the 90's. In fact by 1999, Philadelphia was down to 292 murders.

As crack started flooding the streets in the mid-80s Philadelphia only had 263 murders in 1984 and 274 in 1985 in a city of 1.7M which is a little bit more than today.

Philadelphia has had 500+ murders the last 3 years and even Center City at night when I was there had a menacing aura with teenagers mobbing everywhere. This city is eating itself alive and a lot of kids don't even find their rec centers and parks as safe spaces.

Man if you make it out the hood ain't no way your kids should be gettin caught up in some street level fukkery.

I know Gillie is racked with guilt right now.

 

[RAX 010]

[Malcolmxxx_23]

Average 500 plus murder a year is crazy

 

[Wacky D]

They are going to make decisions that could alter the course of their life, regardless of what you tell them.

Supporting that lifestyle is another thing altogether though

If they are that adamant to go against your wishes and they can do it without your support, so be it, but if you are enabling, you've got to feel at least a little responsible

Not saying gillie was, don't know much about him and his son's relationship, but that's my take on that particular subject.

Mt. Airy, Wynnfield, parts of the NE, Spring Garden/Fairmount, Chestnut Hill, parts of West Oak Lane, Manayunk, East Falls, "historic" Germantown (different from other part of Germantown), Northern Liberties, Passyunk... Logan was never really that bad, but I would consider it regular Philly, like Olney,

If you're not really in North Philly (which is a huge part of Philly), South Philly, West/Southwest...basically the neighborhoods on the outside of those neighborhoods are all nice.

most of those neighborhoods really arent nice either.

theyre just nice by philly standards.

and most of these murders of known figures,tend to occur in those neighborhoods.

I agree with your overall point.
But, the height of the crack era violence nationally was late 80s/early 90s. Most cities saw the highest homicide numbers, and per capita homicide rates in their histories during that stretch.

Philly from 1989 to 1991 averaged more than 450 homicides.

The return to anything close to the killing field numbers of that era is frightening, and nothing to be dismissed. Several cities saw homicides and per capita hom. rates equal or surpass their historic peaks the past few years. Philly surpassed the murders and hovering around the rate.

So where are the nice neighborhoods in Philly?

And a lot of shyt I’ve heard that happens on the east coast scares me

I wonder if part of the issue is just the high number of people packed together
