A whole day later and this shyt is still depressing to think about :mjcry:
That’s why I had to redirect my thoughts for a few. Very depressing. I’m trying to get my head together for Saturday when I’ll be back in NY- I know the energy is different

It goes both ways. I grew up in a bad neighborhood in a poor single parent home, with a mom who worked the graveyard shift. Had friends who got killed, killed, In prison and sold drugs. Still regardless of that I never was a gangsta and went to college. The environment definitely plays a role but the individual does to.

Yeah this is basically what I was getting at

And of people raised in decent neighborhoods have dysfunctional households

like my family and a lot of my friends families really couldn’t afford to grow up in my neighborhood but our parents was just living above their means pay to check to pay check moving from apartment to apartment just so we didn’t have to be raised in public housing

I had a school friend from the projects who had a nicer apartment than me though lol

his shyt looked like a condo on the inside lol

The old nature vs nurture debate. Is it how you were raised or the environment? I think both play a role and also the mind of the individual in question :jbhmm: Some kids a parent can turn their back on and they know they will follow the rules, other kids parents know they have to watch like a hawk cause they will get into all kinds of nonsense.

Dude got killed in Beverly hills. They're gonna make an example out of these muthafukkers. Can't be spooking the rich white folks.

That’s the first thing I thought about days ago when this news came out. Surprised it took that long for someone to say that. They gonna discriminate even more and try to prevent certain rappers or new rappers in general from their LA suburbs

@Nicole0416 Sis. You know im over here now, streets is mourning, helicopters was hovering for like two days. Smoke is the current soundtrack to my life, i woke up to dior. I ain't even feel Big L this much cuz i was away at school and sorta missed it but this shyt hit close to home in more ways than one. I had just made it clap for a nikka on valentine's Day and now this. :mjcry:

God willing i don't lose nobody in the forthcoming retaliations and shyt. I got little nikkas in Harlem i watched grow up who could end up involved. fukk. :mjcry:

But we knew something was gon happen. We just didn't know exactly how it was gonna occur.

Sis - I can’t even reply to you like I want, my eyes are full of tears after reading your post. I don’t .. I’ll be back later. Let me get..I’ll be back later. War zone right now. So much going on- Jesus.

No they didn’t man wtf :heh:

Post pictures...

The pieces today are more expensive dog by far. They was rocking basic pieces and a lot of bullshyt pieces too. Y’all can’t compare no damn Dipset chain or Cash Money chain to what’s going on now.

Please post these rappers from 1998-2003 who were as iced out as rappers today. A lot of people dapped you so I gotta see this.

And yes the average rapper has that much jewelry and more. That’s probably all of Blueface jewelry. I’ve seen GQ’s jewelry series and these rappers be having way more than that.

U gonna tell me rappers back then had bust down Richard Milles :laff:

Nikkas in the 2000’s was stepping out in fukking tees and the most expensive jeans was like Girbauds, Evisu, Parasuco, etc. Hip-Hop brands were popping that were affordable.

Right now nikkas wear jeans that cost $2,000 from Balmain and Mike Amiri and shyt.

It’s not close at all. Back then a rapper could be fly in a lil Benz or Hummer. Or a Lambo today rappers got Lambo trucks. Today every rapper is in a Wraight.

And the saddest part is whatever those expensive hard to pronounce brands were in Pop Smoke last IG story, we can’t hold our breath and expect them to extend sympathy or condolences in regards to his death

which makes the fact that rappers support those brands so hard even more sad

That was Mike Amiri. He actually made a post about him. His brand wouldn’t be where it is without NY rappers.


I’m with you tho on the brand worship and excess materialism of rap today.

I can’t even talk to nobody on the phone right now without tearing up and I’m sounding incoherent . fuk, then dudes in the set calling, family calling, stopping inner circles from warring on social media - trying to talk people out of any reprisals - pure chaos . Once shyt gets done - it’s done. Then these sweeps going on - this is not life, it’s not , it’s just not . This can’t be
