Rate This City: Day 32 - London

[K.O.N.Y]

They are way too different , NY is the most international city in America , hands down

Im not saying its the best , Im just saying that places like Paris . London , New York and a few others have more in common with each other than many places in their own countries


I like both places , and I would say the debate about which is better isnt clear cut and is mostly down to preference

But the thing that London beats NY hands down no fukking debate and the main reason I live there now is black culture ...
..

Tell me, what in the modern age does London have, thats fukking with a place like Harlem-As far as creating black culture

Most of the Caribbean ws part of the British Empire ....

In NY if I want to see the Carribean I would go to Flatbush. in London its fukking everywhere , everywhere

Nah, nyc has a way bigger Caribbean population. I think jamaican culture is more influential in london but size is much much smaller. I think if anything London have a bigger African population.

He means the collective integration of black culture. All black diaspora fukk with each other a lot more heavily than in nyc where poeple still prefer to stay among their own respective cultures

Not saying that black london culture isnt relevant

But in comparison to nyc, what black culture was created on the same level

Nyc dominates london in the creation of modern black cultures

again this isn't about creation it's about integration which is a big difference, i dont know why this is a hard concept for you guys to understand infact you see it here on thecoli constantly

again London is a MIX of black culture it isn't america where black culture had to be reconstructed from the ground up, yall really need to understand history in the contextual sense

Make sure you see a football match when you come to London and make sure it's a derby match (particularly Arsenal vs Tottenham). It will make your trip over 'ere.

You can take a flight to Ireland for like £40 quid. See all of Britain not just England.


It's all beautiful.

Most nightclubs in Central London are shyt -- don't waste ya time.

Word of mouth is key, so find a shubz through a mutual friend or illegal house parties -- pure fukkery.

I once went to a house party that felt like a crack house a few months ago. Had people older than my mother in there but it was still hard as fukk. fukkery is fun no matter what.

Also, don't do that loud and brash thing all Americans do when they come over here because they wanna be heard because you'll either get stabbed or doused with acid. Don't say Jimmy didn't warn ya.

I dont think a city that simply has black integration trumps a city with black CREATION

Nyc has a enough of both,moreso than London anyway

NYC has no where number of Africans and Caribbeans London has, you are definitely jacking that one on dogs

NYC still isnt seeing London when it comes to the collective black diaspora and thats on everything
