we had so many dopefiends and crackheads that living in my block was like living on the set of walking dead, true story. i remember being little and my dad always covering my eyes when we came home because there would be passed out junkies on our stoop and in our hallways and the ones that werent passed out were shooting up or smoking. my building was a fukking trap house. i never realized the danger we were in til i got older cause i was so used to it. more than once shyt popped off while we were coming home.
on one occasion, and this is a 100% true story, we were coming home from my godmothers block on 134 between broadway and amsterdam and we stopped cause we saw sammy sosa. sammy just came up with texas that year and he had a shorty on that block if i remember correctly from what my pops told me. he was there like at 11:30pm chilling drinking beers and my dad stopped to say hello and we just heard like 10 quick gunshots go off. everybody ran into the building including sammy. shyt like that was just normal.
Haha wordd. One of my family friends was actually a fiend. And I swear I wasnt able to put 2 + 2 together until I was like 19
Harlem was notorious for drugs back in the day. shyt wasnt making no damn sense.
shyt is much better nowadays. Im glad for that. And like you said earlier too. That gang shyt never really got proper footing out here(in harlem at least). Most of this new age gang banging takes places in the Bronx. I guess like you said earlier. Harlem nikkas are too arrogant to be in a gang enviroment like that. Everybody outchea jus wanna be a boss and stunt hard
