Detroit You bytch Ass nikka
On another note, if you are a Detroiter, peep my nikka Dobbs with a story flow about hittin a few licks, might hear a few streets you know. My nikka killin shyt and is mos def easily one of the best in the city lyrically and energetically. Think of a Jada with the style, Banks with the different ways to ride beats, and young Fab with the punches.




"then I made a right on 8 Mile to 94 West, luckily I aint get flicked, had to wipe off a sweat/from my forehead, now its time for another mission, lord have mercy on a man if I catch a nikka slippin/I came up on Alter road up Harper, not realizing I was in the same truck i got my man off of/slow enough the jakes got behind me ran the plates, now its either the state pen or take them on a chase/as I speed hope to make it to the hood ill be safe, made a left on dikkerson a buck and change all the way, to Southampton, hopped out and took the alley way, the whole hood was out for hours I was where my nikkas stay, hey........"





EDIT nikka::::::::


nikkas are fukkin sleeping if u dont give this shyt at least 1 spin, do it for the city nikka lol, you know its hard to gain the fame up here if you are actually talented. I fukks with Team Eastside nikkas on the daily and them nikkas treat Dobbs like a god on the mic, it is what it is though........ I thought my D nikkas would show the love :to:

I live in Ann Arbor, and I wish Detroit could make a comeback. But when there are abandoned office buildings right in downtown? :whoo:

Just got back from the autoshow and lunch at the detroit beer company. a nicca sitting at his desk buzzin.

My father in-law is an old Flint hoodlum, who cleaned up after getting married and moved to Ypsi to goto Eastern. He doesn't like to talk about his Flint days :russ:

shyt is sad, but i can't front, i'm from a small town on the DC border. that shyt was falling apart up until 10 years ago, and being a kid surrounded by abandoned neighborhoods meant a lot of cool shyt to play with that didn't involve guns and whatnot.

used to explore old military hospitals and abandoned ballrooms and shyt. silver linings :yeshrug:

Probably the best downtown not in the city is in Royal Oak. It's small but it's cool :manny:

is that where all the young adults stay at??? I was at the car show yesterday and was pretty impressed with your female population :shaq:

y'all surpassed in one venue what the entire cities of philly and bmore offer

I'm def tryna do the bar/lounge thing. So if you have some good spots, hold ya breh down

This thread is beautiful and sad. The pictures tell so much, urban blight, white flight, corrupt politics. I think of other things, like lack of ownership and lack of accountability. Interesting stuff tho

in detroit the apocalypse has already happened. when I see these pictures of a destroyed america I wonder "what can we learn from this?"

this abandoned wasteland of a city...its beautiful though in an ugly way. some of these pictures remind me of a surrealist painting or something. if this isn't an example of urban decay I don't know what is

It is still beautiful in a Uncharted video game sort of way.




















































You know I bet there some treasures still underneath all that rubble.
