You wouldn’t say that to a Cali nikkas face
Breh I lived in Cali from 97 to 01.
I got the respect of the Cali nikkas first and foremost from how disrespectfully I talked about Pac’s non rhyming ass and defended Big dolo for the most part, when I first got out there.
This was when I was still a fake East Coast wannabe nikka and what ultimately led to me making the friendships that bought me home to my folks.
I had one nikka from Pittsburgh that tried to hold me down but he was goofy and one nikka from Brooklyn that was dumb as hell so he was just my hype man.
Everybody else was from all over Cali, the Midwest and the South and outside of a few Chicago nikkas everybody was on Pac dikk.
The Chicago nikkas mostly was neutral and just liked to instigate shyt then sit back in the cut and laugh when the sparks started flying.
This was in the heat of the bullshyt right after Big died when it was nothing for nikkas to get full of that Old Gold and E&J or bumpy face and get into actual fist fights over that shyt.
