Back in the days yeah.. I'm older now. Just like the lounges/restaurant bar thing. I leave the turnt up- bottle poppin'- drill music spots for the kids. But its not really the parties as a whole its just the people wanting attention and doing whatever it takes to be seen or known. Its the desperate ones that go overboard with sh*t until they flame out and fall off

Couldn't have said it better myself.. Cats out here doing sh*t they shouldn't be doing, hanging with people they don't like, being a cartoon character. I see it too. Go ahead and try to "make it" but be true to yourself. Plus with the internet leveling the playing field you can put yourself on by making or buying your own film camera or recording studio. Most of the sh*t these people do is unnecessary and outdated

I've never met more tragically sad people than when I lived in LA. The casual cocaine use to drown out their problems. The smiles they put on at parties and then the shyt they'd say to me in confidence about how they hate their lives taught me that that outward appearance you see on TV that LA is one big party of glitz and glamour is bullshyt.

It can be a giant mind fukk when your career/livelihood is based entirely on whether others like you or not. Whether a casting agent likes your look. Whether enough people like your music. People have to have a thick skin to take the inevitable rejection on the way to any successful career in entertainment.

I met a random dude that used to be famous in the 90s, and he told me- first sentence out of his mouth as we shook hands- "I used to be famous in the 90s and I'm trying to get it back". And then proceeded to tell me about his drug addiction because of that. That's another thing about LA- people love to talk about themselves for no good god damn reason. It's like the best narcissists in the country move there to out "me" each other.

But the non-entertainment people in LA, however- the local cats that grew up there that don't give a fukk about any of that have been some of the realest, genuine people I've met. :yeshrug:

Out here in my damn drawls
But killing yourself

Just cause you don't make it

Imagine pouring all of your time and energy into something you're passionate about and realizing that your life isn't going to pan out the way that you've imagined.

On top of the other monotonous, energy draining everday shyt, that's too much for some people to handle


It's basically like living life as a Cavs fan

Elaborate on this a little more :jbhmm:


nothing to really elaborate on... u have so many brainwashed blacks out here that come from middle america and a few right here in cali who would do anything and i mean anything to make it in hollywood and would change their whole image to fit in what they believe is the true California life :mjlol:.... I seen one chick years ago had nia long skinned and 2 weeks later she looking lighter than hillary banks and the broad got turned out cause CACS tricked her ass thinking she could be a actress and she running around talking and acting different like she was going to be a star and i'm sitting back like :francis: cause i seen it before.. she was a actress alright on the couch in some San Fernando Valley warehouse..... this broad now works as cashier at ARCO gas station off of manchester blvd and from one of the old O.G's who stands out there all the time tells me this chick is on some much medication it's sad... she's like a loner now cause dudes and chicks know her rep... she has a daughter, but u wouldn't know if the kid is black,white, mexican or asian because she been tossed around

Broad would be in top 5 if there was a poll 5 years ago, now she's not even on your radar

it's like a chick go from this to that

Welcome to Los Angeles.....

i try to tell these transplants especially blacks don't get caught up with that fake hollywood lifestyle and image cause depression will set in when u realize the fantasy world u in isn't reality...... i knew a few who came out here and got burned and ending up killing themselves either by overdose of drugs or shooting themselves

this one sister i work with sister came out here to get into that lifestyle and ended up getting tossed around in those rap and c list stars party lifestyle and ended killing herself cause some unknown actor dumped her for some other chick...

i always stayed away from that bullshyt north and west of wilshire blvd

Good post..

Plus to top it off Instagram is making sh*t even worse. Like I this actress chick I f*cks with here n there. She hits alot of movie premieres and random sh*t all the time. I'm never there cause I'm at work most times-- ironically one of her biggest complaints for not having a steady man is because she needs a dude that's always there to run the red carpets with her and to not get upset at all the dudes she meets and talks to when out networking:comeon:.. but anyways she hits all these spots but 90% of the time its for the photo opportunities that works in well with her online profile. Like one time she's at this kids camp for anti-bullying.. You get a few selfie pics with the caption "I'm at this anti-bullying camp for kids. Such a good cause"- followed by a thousand hashtags:heh:I'm sure its a good cause no doubt but in actuality she doesn't have kids of her own and she really doesn't even give a sh*t about the cause but the photo op works perfectly with her diverse Hollywood online profile. And this chick is from Louisiana. But I can tell that sh*t is wearing her out but she's too caught up to stop.

That sh*t right there is what I'm seeing that killing cats off slowly but surely. They only f*ck with people or things that enhance the online profile
