The hater in me looks at that video and gets nostalgic for the good old days of 90's era car jackin and robbery.
What changed ?
Social media Instagram and snap
?
I remember going to medusa hooka lounge , my broke ass was trying to get a drink, and these dudes just ordered 10 fukkin bottles
Dj was yelling bottle wars
I immediately left and drove to my hotel
Yup most are rented vehiclesThis same video has been post multiple times on here. I guarantee most of those cars were rented by the label.
Malcom ...to be honest the whole cultural mindset got brainwashed once all these movements entered the city during the early 2000's
not just BMF
2003 it looked like the city had more transplants and vistors than actual residents especially in the party scene
you had Street Fam...Bogard ent..SYS...Pure Pain..Zoe Pound...9 Treys...Mansfield Crips..Black Roses...
and those were just the infamous ones...not counting all the other balling hard movements who weren't that well known
not to mention all these movements had BIG BOSSES....many of whom were big on the promotion scene..i know cause that was my field of intrest
guys like Kenny Burns from NYC...Chubbie Baby from Dipset...Smurf whom Jeezy brought from southeast ga..and Biggie Rankin from duval were all going to the BLACK MECCA
and it caused the local movements like Ductape and Oomp camp and others to step their game up cause the BAR no pun intended got raised dramatically
and this was before the social media instagram/twitter explosion...
the whole atmosphere changed my guy
for the worst in my opinion
case in point...no lie..i remember listening to live radio broadcasts when i was on my way to the club feeling excited cause i knew the cover charge was low and it was a gang of lovely ladies there who were still into REGULAR DUDES
i remember the deejay getting on the mic and saying in 2001
"shoutout all my people brining home at least 40k a year...yeahhhhhh...keep grinding"
"if you got 100$ in your pocket..MAKE SOME NOISE!!!
i was like i felt APRECIATED and amongst the IN CROWD...considering i had a decent corporate gig and my side hustle as a promoter
but it was ALL GOOD JUST A WEEK AGO
2003 CAME IN and i remember that same club ...the same deejay saying over the mic during a live broadcast while im speeding down 85 to make it there
"hey ladies....NBA MONEY IS IN THE HOUSE TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....FELLAS YOU BETTA MIND AND YOUR MONEY RIGHT ..CAUSE THESE LADIES ARE CHOOSING....WE LIVE BABEEE ON HOT 107.9!!!!!!!"
right then and there.....i felt my heart sank cause i know i wasnt on that level especially when my boy whom had just beat me to the club said..
"dawg they charging 40$ to get here...and now they charging for PARKING TOO!!"
I told him ...its a wrap for me..im going back home and probally stop by mrs winners and pick me up a two piece and take my broke azz home...
so MALCOM i know the "pain" you felt that evening....
reminds me of the time i made the mistake of going to the COMPOUND to celebrate a friend of mine just coming back from deployment
talk about blowing money fast
thank god i am an older and flabby n sick REGULAR n1gga who is far removed from ATL in distance and desires....
they can have that "LIFESTYLE"...it's all SMOKE N MIRRORS ANYWAY BREH
you broke it down
The moment nba players and rappers started doing club appearance it was a wrap for the average 9-5 dude
Plus gotta compete with scammers and drug dealers lol.
I miss the early 2000s
Hypergamy is all time high...even worse if you a brother

Best place to find a wife
But at that age you just wanna fukk hoes
I agree I'm sure you canI’m talking about from 25-30. As long as she isn’t in the entertainment industry you can get a bad chick even with an average salary/lifestyle.
On time like clockwork......I know the Mcdonald's you work at love you.....I wonder how much do they have in savings for retirement , what kind of homes do they own , what kind of non depreciating assets do they have, what kind of businesses do they own
Or do these "big ballers" just have leased luxury cars and designer clothes
