I'm very angry about this.
I just want to say that the more days that passed, the more I'm angry at his killer(s)
And the more hurt I feel. Pop Smoke was special man. I saw the video of that dude slapping him as a kid. Pop just seemed like a genuinely pure kid - and dude who made dope music. I also liked his style. He wore dope clothes. Dope voice, dope live shows packed.

We need to do better brehs.

fukk this bullshyt and more rap kids dying.
Did we not learn from the fukking two pillars of rap? Pac and Big?

Keep it on fukking wax and get away from the streets.

But Pop was away, that's what's so fukking scary.

fukk the violence. Rap was intended to stop the Violence.

R.i.p Pop Smoke. And everyone here love your loved ones, feel their love and make it a dope week.

The dude was also violent gangbanging criminal that made shytty and destructive music. An overall net negative. I'm sure his family and loved ones misses him but to the larger society nothing of any real value was lost. I hate to say it but it is what it is. He's just another statistic that will be forgotten in no time. I've seen flash in the pan nikkas like him come and go over my years.

After that incident went viral, I wonder how much that had an effect on him. The original video was removed from youtube due to cyberbullying but it still on worldstar and reappears again and again from time to time.

I wonder how much of his behavior afterwards is directly related to that incident. He was never able to get revenge directly on Kiki, NYPD got to him first in a very public manner. But the fact that he waited 7 years to get the other dude and recorded it for all, tells me that that incident at the Junction was a major life changer for him. Probably felt like he could not turn back. Probably wondered how many people saw that video and thought they could test him inna similar way. Wonder how much shyt he got for it before he decided that becoming super gangster was the answer. :francis:

edit ... the worldstar video has been retitled but it has been up since October 31, 2012. Imagine going into high school with your most embarrassing moment on the internet forever to relive again and again. :francis:




tl;dr ... this cyberbullying era where youtube exists and nothing gets erased is a game changer for the youths. :francis:

Alleged video of Kimani Gray bullying a Crip surfaces. (amended)

For those who would interpret this video as an attack on Kimani Gray and his family, I say get over it. Gray may have been a Blood or he may have been a Blood wannabe but in this video, the young man who many are claiming is Kimani Gray was without doubt a bully. Regardless of who and what this young man was, actions have consequences.

Teens do not think twice about the repercussions of posting such videos and images on the internet even when they can be used against them.

The young men in the video having never given a thought as to the repercussions of their actions are of no significance to me.

As a mother and grandmother, what does concern me is the gang war that could erupt on the streets of New York should such a video become viral, which it has. This video on the WorldStarHipHop site now has more than 533364 hits as the comments and tributes to Kimani Gray add up.

The family members and friends of the victim in the video should be equally concerned over the peer pressure that he will now receive from fellow gang members who would demand that he seek retribution.

According to those who live by the laws of the street, the young man in the video is a punk and I have no doubt that bullies will be coming out of the woodwork to take on this child.

I reiterate this is not about the character of one, Kimani Gray. It is about black on black crime, street gangs and unintended consequences.
