Thank you, Q.

I truly don’t understand why it started. You stay ready in every city, what’s the issue?
Don’t fukking go to another town lacking.
Once I leave my house, my head is always on a swivel. I don’t give a fukk if I’m going to Disney World. I’m always
Maybe I’m just paranoid as fukk. I dunno

-Anyone can get caught lackin. Do you even have any ops?

It's always that "Man, grow the fukk up" that stays hitting.

LA had 50 million visitors this last year.

I'm guessing only about ~10-20 people worried about "checking in". You know how ridiculous that sounds?

Cats I knew who grew up around that shyt don't worry about it either.
Folks I know would be on some "Alright...and?!" Then after they hang up they'd be like "Why that dude even call me bro??"

Somebody said these people are checking into No Jumper cats.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

You only got to "check in" if you apart of that lifestyle.

 

[Diddly Drogba]

I don't know about California but in COLIfornia you better check in

 

[Peruvian Connect]

This is easy to say but when those same type of dudes find you and rob you anyway you understand why the practice started...

but what does that matter unless you want your "lick" back?

After Takeoff, nikkas still doing this dumb shyt?
Being forced to deal with shiesty nikkas isn't a solution lol

He looks different with no beard and less weight.

It probably started for the very reason I said: a rapper comes to LA rolling around freely having fun, thinking shìt is sweet, till he gets pressed/robbed at the club where one of the gangbangers is cousins with the bouncer/owner and got them in with the strap.

Or at best (or worst depending on how you look at it), cats really did come to the hoods stunting and the street cats said no more.

And head on a swivel doesn't matter when you're by yourself/maybe a couple boys deep in someone's backyard where gang culture is entrenched in their identities.

RIP PNB and Pop Smoke

Wasn't PNB inviting that energy before getting there?

Q's a real one for this. It needed to be said from a LA native.

 

[LeaveMyHairLineAlone]

It's sad but many Black men are still teenagers mentally.

If you 30 talking about checking in, you need to grow up.

You are too OLD to have that mindset.

At 30, all you should want to be around is some women and some money.

I don't want to be around a group of dusty looking dudes in the hood.

If I see a Chief Keef look a like, I know I'm in the wrong place.

shouldnt even need to be said, sad to say

Oh snap! My nygga Q made it to Drink champs! Last time I watched drink champs (years ago) they were talking about how they weren't letting no new Nyggas come up, only OGs .

Looks like ScHool Boy finally up there now...

J.cole has been out there riding his bike city to city. Easily a top 10 earner in rap compared to do many rappers who get robbed or attempted. Has no friction and is often solo.

I think that the perception of who you are. And your content as well play into who becomes targeted. Everyone not treated the same.

The people who would or could be targets are

soft rappers who think they are street

street rappers who are gang affiliates/gang members

I read that same story with Cole whipping a Bentley around Arcadia or something, and you are right, exactly what I said, Cole is in some random weird suburb in camping gear on a bike. There's not even any street guys out there. And the ones that are, are on the same time he is. Low key and with the family. They can't touch who they are close to.
