Nobody is forcing you to be worried about anything even though you should or maybe your whole fam is full of millionaires who can afford to live wherever they want if that's the case most people don't have that luxury) just saying why the dynamics of the city is changing and how that affects working and poor provoking class people which is the majority of the city. That's it no need to get graphic about p*ssy or your wife's leg. I don't know how you made that correlation.

I made that coorelation because u aren't being realistic about where my focus should be. You are telling me that I "should be" worried about the "working and poor class" even tho I said from jump I dont think tribal.

The irony in this is that you want me to think of others and what they are going thru when i know off the top u dont give a damn about me because I keep repeating that I dont think tribal yet here u are saying over and over again to abandon my way of thinking for yours.




Me: this is how I think.

You: Well I dont know anything about you or what you been thru and you dont know anything about me but thats all irrelevant and u should abandon your way of thinking and think how I'm telling you to.

I'm not mad at this comment. It's almost a fact. I'll probably never leave NYC, but there's so much nonsense that happens here that just wouldn't fly anywhere else in the country and it's chalked up to people from NYC thinking it's normal standard operating procedure because they haven't lived anywhere else, or chalked up to transplants/newcomers saying "oh, well, that's NYC for ya! how great is this!"

A city known for vibrant creativity turned into a place where it's damn near possible to make a living doing anything creative. A city known for vibrant enclaves and local businesses filled with landlords sitting on vacant commercial space, collecting tax breaks, waiting for a Chase bank or Duane Reade to come take over the lease.

Everything in NYC is a big battle and it can get exhausting sometimes. Battle/fight to get to work every morning, battle/fight to get decent housing, battle/fight to go out to eat, wait in lines for damn near everything. TSA at JFK airport has to be up there with the worst, most in-efficient agency operating in the entire country. Now they're going to put through congestion pricing where it's going to cost MORE money to drive into Manhattan. The tolls (that you can't pay in cash anymore, everyone needs a trackable EZ-pass) weren't enough. The MTA is literally falling apart due to decades of mismanagement and politicians kicking the can down the road, yet everywhere you look there are dozens of huge high-rise apartments going up adding thousands of more people to already overcrowded neighborhoods and infrastructure. The city's just filled with weak chain stores and lame trendy "Instagram friendly" businesses that will pack up and leave in a year or two once the hype dies down

Everyone wants to talk about how NY rap fell off... it's because the city itself fell the fukk off and the culture here is extremely different, to almost non-existent...and it's never coming back.

Commute 1.5 hours each way to work, be on a waiting list for housing, be on a waiting list for parking, be on a waiting list for a municipal job, spend 3 hours going to MetLife Stadium to go through airport-style security and $20 beers to see the Giants lose. as much as I love NYC the whole city in 2017 is a massive L. Unless you got double digit millions without a care in the world (which apparently a lot of people here fall under those categories) the city is a huge pain in the ass and the quality of life is garbage.

But...where else would you rather be? A cookie cutter housing tract in Texas where everything closes at 9 pm and the most exciting thing you got going on is the WalMart?

sounds like it's a L everywhere

Reason why I'm in Denver, I'm earning NYC salary + mountain view + ladies wayyyy more cooperative
Don't miss the every day "battle" of NYC

Those who are employed in these financial institutions are monolithic overwhelmingly white males which is not a representative of the city's demographics. The only visible small minority in any Wall Street banking institution is Asians.

Wall Street an elusive dream for black Americans - NBC News

These are the same people who are driving up living costs while the overwhelming majority rest of the city stays living and stressing about the rise of living cost combined with stagnant wages. It's a nice title to have as a global financial hub but how does the majority of the rest of the city's population benefit from this title especially Black people in the city.

nbc news refuses to acknowledged black run wall street firms that also was making noise out here. we are also neglecting black realty companies that were helping to bridge the gap of having properties as well

I still find it hard to believe some people rep a NY so hard but still rent and don't own nothing....simma down!

I lived here for 20 years now and I don't see what the hype is....NYC no longer produces anything original.

All the food and music that was known here is being produced somewhere else now.

This is just a big ass city of miscreants living off the rep from 30 years ago #facts

sounds like you broke

Every time Rex gets this vexed, an angel gets his Timbs

What/Who in the hell is that?
Is this what NY artists are getting support now, @NY's #1 Draft Pick ? Are they that desperate to get back on top/remain relevant in the rap game?

Just trying to restore the feeling, my guy
