I liked him too back in the day but he's been exposed as a dumbass for a few years now. Then he goes and says this goofy shyt, like he said something profound....like dude...wtf!

Killer Mike speaking after him highlighted how unintelligent TI is. Killer Mike's response was passionate, knowledgeable and intelligent.
I’ll give TI some benefit of the doubt and say that him and Mike had the same backing premise behind their talks. But if you articulate yourself as bad as TI did, on top of that fake intelligent fake woke platform you’ve built since snitching, you deserve to get buried

My nikka, black people don't own them spots in midtown and downtown. People think because a lot of brothers and sisters live in Atlanta that we own everything. :russ:
If ppl really think it’s gonna be skin off black people backs bc some NCAA replica trophies and some shytty iPhone chargers and some Louis V got robbed...:francis:

This uprising is really exposing the fakers and cowards. You literally had young nikkas bumping Chief Keef "Faneto" at a BURNING police station.
they really downplaying how absolutely nuts people have been going there have been millions of dollars of damages to cop property and years of ptsd weighing on those pigs brains the longer this goes on :merchant:

Yeah I'm in the city. I live in the gentrified area so it's cool but it's definitely a food desert over here. They're building a park nearby that's shooting up the housing prices so that's good. Honestly, the only downside is that it takes 15 minutes to get to the freeway.

where would you say the gentrified part of bankhead is?

I’m considering the area.

I'm not going to comment on the protestors or motivations. All I'll say is this about Atlanta: who do you think will be buying those lots and businesses that are being destroyed right now. It won't be black people. A city is being handed over to white people tonight, Detroit 1967 style.

The area where the protesting is taking place is already dominated by white corporations/business owners. In fact, the vast majority of downtown/midtown/Buckhead (prime real estate in Atlanta) is white owned. Atlanta has a lot of black people in high positions/making moves. But don’t confuse that for it being a city that is black owned. It is far from that.

Any of the parts they consider West Midtown. Kinda hard to describe but basically where they're building a lot of shyt. Here's a wiki description:

"The borders of West Midtown are not defined officially by the city, as it encompasses several neighborhoods spread over multiple NPUs. Generally, though, West Midtown is bordered to the east by Northside Drive and Georgia Tech, to the north by Buckhead, to the west by Marietta Boulevard and Marietta Road, and to the south by Hollowell Parkway. However, other sources define a larger area including parts of English Avenue and Bankhead, including the West Midtown Design District and The West Midtown Business Alliance.[14][15]"

West Midtown area isn't cheap. It's true gentrification... when you get down to Hollowell it's the same ol' Bankhead. I don't live far from where the Perry Homes used to be before they tore it down.
