King of DC Fat Trel is back!

[The Devil's Advocate]

Valid, but not even places like Bmore or Baton Rouge?

Bmore nah... i been to louisiana.. lived in mississippi for a minute so i was out there heavy too


what i'm saying is not the same as grimey or a killer... yea a nikka in chi town will blow your head off for the dough... or cause you're an enemy.. or whatever. nikkas might rob you anywhere. etc etc


but when i say crabs... i mean people will be on level 5 and be the greatest people in the world.... until you reach level 6.. then they will

A. dikkride you heavy like you brand new. trying to get everything they can get out of you to surpass you

B. turn against you. start talking behind your back. plotting against you. or dikkriding someone on level 8, acting like it's making them better than you




i never seen nothing like it more than in the DMV... it's why in 40-50 years of hip hop, they only got 1 semi successful rapper... VA right next to them and got plenty for decades... male and female. but dc? 80% black too... nation's capital.. 4 sports teams.. every artist of every genre must slide through.. all they get is Wale.. who the city turned it's back on.. and a few underground dudes like trel... who soon as they reach any sort of fame, the city starts hating on them too

Pretty much. Typically you'll hear them say oh he's really not from the City he a pg nikka or moco nikka

Really though the lack of rap success is more so attributed to gogo being so dominant. nikkas growing up wanted to be lead mics in a band and would actually make fun of nikkas who tried to rap. At some point after 2010 gogo fell all the way off. It's crazy how night and day it is from what we listened to when I was in high school to what my lil homies who just graduated listen to.

Fat Trel had his lil moment and idk for whatever reason it never really materialized. He has a dope flow and voice so maybe.

Detroit is a miserable failure of a city. You should never speak down on another city or its population.

I agree. Rapping was seen as corny in D.C. Until recently. I remember some of those philly/ny transplants used to have composition books filled with rhymes.

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

NW, although the Uptown we knew is all but gone(minus a few spots).

KDY(Kennedy area) and the rest of the Northeastern part of NW(close to the Silver Spring and Takoma area) are really the only Black majority places in NW now.

Georgia ave (around Eddie Leonards and the House etc.) still got hella black folks.. shyt is drastically changing though. Petworth damn near white.

 

[Gizza]

Always miss the fukkery/OG thread titles eh he improved & his vocals clearer. Still not interested hope he makes some moves.

 

[PS5 Pro]

Got alot to address here so...

they call police 12 in DC?

No, that is not something that all of or most of D.C. uses. I personally never heard that and I'm out here...

Logic the king of the DMV area

Logic makes songs for "Noob Noob" and he gets more bytches than you do. But, like noob noob, logic is not a vindicator. He also was sounding too much like drake/Cole at one time and real hip hop heads recognized that. Logic is still a work in progress, better than most from the area but that isn't saying much, especially in these watered down times were in...

I agree with all of this. I have some really good friends still in the DMV. Just as a whole the average cat from the were haters and get withs. There are some killers but they like to do a lot of frontin' even on that level. When I used to be in SE the adjacent neighborhoods would come damn near DAILY and shoot up each other neighborhoods without hitting a DAMN THING all this did was basically terrorize the locals and make it where the damn kids couldn't even go outside. In Detroit the majority of the time cats come get their targets and keep it moving. I also never in my life seen such dirty motherfukkers. EVERYBODY had roaches, mice, bed bugs etc and it was because nobody valued their property and it's not even a poverty driven area like a Detroit, Baltimore etc...there IS a thriving job market in DC. The one thing I still love about DC is the women though. Met some of the best ladies ever while in the district

You don't understand how D.C. got like that, it's important to understand D.C. was a city wide project. Crack was a huge deal here, all the new York crack stories usually have a dc component. Poverty is real here, and them jobs you talking about are not offered to nikkaz D.C. used to be the murder capital of the world, the wizards changed their name from the bullets. 99lbs or less of marijuana was a misdemeanor until they changed that to an ounce in 2002? (So weed, crack, drama) now it's legal. I could go on and on. What isn't talked about is how racist it is in the DMV area. And how that is why dc got like it got in the first place. You just looking at the aftermath and casting judgement

Iont even count VA in the DMV lmao

PG, MoCo, and the City. My mans stay out SE and another used to be out 43rd. City really is a different world. @bigrodthe1 & @Edub right tho, you get both type of nikkas out DC. Some super hating shyt and some super cool shyt, there's never an in between

I hear you talking about haters while hating on Va

whole lot of disrespect in here, especially nikkas not from this area, its bammas everywhere, I sure as hell saw some bamma ass nikkas and bytches in detriot when I went there

when I grew up we didn't call this area the DMV, nikkas wasn't claiming no damn Virginia, nikkas wasn't claiming Montgomery county either, nikkas just went to silver spring and wheaton mall for the uppity bytches

I grew up in dc and pg county all my life and nikkas can sleep on Landover all they want, landover nikkas used to get it in, and they damn sure wasn't tryna claim dc

stop with the area disses cause I will fry yall cities out here

I would hit up landover mall to go school shopping. And, well oxen hill Mike's Liquor was open til 2am

heard that shyt in Atlanta 20 years ago. That ain't just a DC thing.

20yrs Ago I heard the term 5-0, but the only 12 I know are from Detroit or Jesus crew...

Georgia ave (around Eddie Leonards and the House etc.) still got hella black folks.. shyt is drastically changing though. Petworth damn near white.

The area you just mentioned is white now. I had a bud man who lived on Emerson. I still go in that area for reasons I cannot share but yeah, the gentrification movement is real. Dc is now like 27% black, can't even call it chocolate city anymore. They just kicked all the poor out, raised the rent, entire black neighborhoods turned white almost overnight in some places. Howard university surrounding area is all white they put up white symbols around the city, murals n shyt. Woodbridge Va is the new dc. That's where a lot of people relocated to. I grew up in Va and its not a game out there. The problems out there don't stem from the community, it's the system. Va been preying on nikkaz since the 1600's and black people are not equipped to dealwith it because we believe we are all equal, at least under the law but no... They will target you, and continue slavery via the prison industrial complex.

That game is being played in Virginia more than anywhere else I've seen. And I been all over this country.

For the OG topic of this thread, fat trel isn't known outside of youngins. He's not mainstream, his style from the video posted sounds Like everyone else. Modern day Atlanta sounding. Kids love that, but I think we all can agree we don't NEED another. So he gotta do better if he wants to actually make it. No hate, just an opinion

I don't know where you got your info from, is that a reputable site?
I live in D.C., I haven't received a census inquiry since I've lived here

I learned of this fact two years ago...

D.C., where blacks are no longer in the majority, has a new African American affairs director

I moved to dc shortly afterwards, I hit up all 4 quadrants like I'm Jan Michael Vincent. White people the majority now. I've seen white folks biking in Barry Farms.

A lot of sad truth in here.....I grew up in NW then family moved all over the US until we came back to DC in 1990.
Finally the parents settled in Potomac and I remember some city and PG nikkas trying to clown me cuz I lived in MoCo.
I was like:
1. I go to a public school that is national blue ribbon
2. my neighbors are Linda Carter (old school wonder woman) and Donnie Simpson (BET)
3. My mom and dad are realizing/living the dream

And I'm supposed to feel BAD about living in Potomac? GTFOH
My homies from Suitland pkwy, Addams Morgan, Columbia Heights and Takoma loved coming out to our crib, less madness.
We could blaze and watch the forest behind our house, go down to the river. a small percentage of the crew felt that peer pressure and started gravitating towards more "city" activities which in the early 90s was highly dangerous.
And slowly a lot of them turned to bammas (2 cool for school a$$ nikkas) with delusions of entitlement <- this is a serious disease in the DC area.
Personally I never understood why/how so many PG folks tried to look down on MoCo people.
PG county has some of the highest paid black families in the whole USA but their schools/roads/infrastructure are GARBAGE!
My mom worked for Maryland Dept of Education and to see the crazy levels of nepotism and mismanagement in PG/Baltimore/Ann Arundel County - wow smh.
On the real tho the crab in a barrel mentality in DC area is the worst I've ever seen in the country and I've lived all over.
Sad thing is the DC rappers who think they gonna "run the city" when the city aint built like that....
like someone said earlier too many "get withs"

I had to cut some homies off cuz of that behavior.

 

[Motife43]

heard that shyt in Atlanta 20 years ago. That ain't just a DC thing.

Yeah that's my point. Growing up in Atlanta folks always called police 12, I didn't realize DMV cats was also callin em 12 now
