Exactly.

Everyone who is talking about "he needed to stay out of the hood" - Briarwood, or at least that particular corner, is not really all that hood, as opposed to somewhere like South Jamaica or Far Rock.
That's right where the dunkin donuts is at right?

That area is a little sketchy at night though

U gotta be careful if you're walking to the E/F train station late night

Everybody who keeps harping on the fact that rappers need to "stay out the hood" - that corner in Briarwood is not the hood. Briarwood is not all that bad of a neighborhood actually - shyt ton of Jewish people out there, you can see the white people in the background in the shooting photos.

Right, but its hard for us as people. Because we all try not to forget the circumstances we dodged ourselves or had luck to escape from, especially entertainers in need to build fanbases to make their shyt heard. People say that once shyt happens..but will say "he/she dont do shyt for the hood" or "dont be in the hood" or whatever the fukk, which hurts ur credential as an entertainer - especially hip-hop, which is built on this "real-ism" persona - other times. So its a lose-lose situation.

Cmon, we see it even on internet forums like these..picture in reality..alot worse.

Entertainers - street or not - are like politicans. They're about image, marketing & what can make them $. With hip-hop the whole "im real" thing been stepped on for decades..so cats feel thats what they HAVE to do in order to be accepted. Think not? Check a Drake when he came out.."cornball", "lame", "bytch nikka"..BUT, he had a machine (ie. J Prince, Cash Money etc) or countless other artist who aint hood, "acting white", "corny"..but then they talk about wanting artists to be themselves.

So hip-hop fans contradict themselves often.

Yeah, by the DD.

I mean, any corner can be sketchy late at night, but to get hit up like that on Queens Blvd in Briarwood - if it was on Rockaway or Jamaica or Guy Brew it wouldn't surprise me as much, I guess.

we are all hypocrites bruh

we all love the music but hate the lifestyle

no need to bring this up in this thread though

Facts.

Lifestyle gives birth to the music

The lifestyle takes you away and all we have left is the music.

nikkas really dont understand how hard it really is to make out the hood when you come from that type of a lifestyle.

Making out the hood isnt packing ya shyt and moving.

Making it means where ever you go you good.

For the right price, the common man can take ya life.

you gotta be able to match that price and keep it moving

Y'all need to stop it with this "stay out the hood" when you make it

1) chinx aint "make it" the man doesn't even have a studio album out

2) staying out the "hood" basically means staying away from friends and family.

Any of y'all willing to not visit your family because of what neighborhood they live in ???



Can y'all stop with the victim blaming... what happened was a tragedy and just leave it at that.

A rapper was shot multiple times and killed and his passenger was critically wounded as he drove a Porsche down a Queens boulevard early Sunday, a police source said.

Lionel Pickens, who goes by the stage name Chinx, was shot several times in the body and his 27-year-old passenger was hit twice in the back about 4 a.m. as they traveled on Queens Blvd. at 84th Dr. in Briarwood, cops said.

The shooter sped off while the victim's silver Porsche Panamera 4 came to a stop about a block down the street in front of a Dunkin' Donuts. At least seven bullet holes pierced the front and rear driver's side windows.

Police on Sunday investigate the scene of the fatal drive-by shooting on Queens Blvd. at 84th Drive, which claimed the life of rapper Chinx and injured his friend.
An employee at the coffee shop said Pickens looked lifeless in the driver seat when cops arrived at the scene.

"The police came and they opened up the door," said Bibekanada Das, who was working in the kitchen when the shooting occurred. "All you could see was the guy laid out in the seat."
