What city do you think had the biggest influence of modern day black america street culture

[K.O.N.Y]

No....skinny jeans. Fitted clothing had already made a comeback.

You nikkas gotta stop pretending like I wasn't in NYC running the streets during the time yall were talking about.

Ya wore them ugly ass pradas, SBs, super skinny jeans not fitted, and shyt like 10 deep stussy and supreme tops. That was the uniform for a fly nikka during those days.

Yall werent flamboyant. Yall didnt rock dreads or golds. Yall damn sure didnt wear the smedium rockstar tops. Why lie?

breh how old were you
we're talking 2005 2006 here.
the look of the new yorker was fitted jeans with an ed hardy t shirt or some shyt(hence the rockstar look)
Nobody was rocking fitted anything outside of the polo,lacoste preppy look type cats
New york made it popping to include the popular "RETRO" look as well

We never wore any of this corny shyt. Now you all dress like us.

Ed hardy?

Breh Ye and P had already pushed fitted wear on to the mainstream and Lupe cemented it in 06.

In fact, the 1st nikkas I remember wearing skinny jeans at my school were CALI nikkas a few years before any NYC nikka started adopting that look and claiming they created it

I aint seen you or anyone claiming it isn't true posting anything to dispel it. But then again, you a Wisconsin nikka riding Chicago's nutsacks. Think you control your blocks yet they pushing you to whole different states LOLs.

 

[@OffHalsted]

nah Chicago nikkas can't pimp, hustle and are generally bummy dressed nikkas but we suppose to big yall up because yall squad up to kill each other?

I hear Chicago and NYC nikkas throw parties where they play nothing but Gucci and Future but youll never see a Atlanta party with a Drill or Scammer music theme

How about you Midwest nikkas stay put instead of running to our cities tryna learn how we hustle and get money Chicago-area black population drops as residents leave for South, suburbs

if it wasn't for chicago nikkas yall wouldn't be pimpin anyway A Chicago pimp nikka created & influenced the game tho

the south is not a fixture in urban fashion. And historically it hasnt either
new york basically wrote the book on urban streetware its laughable to compare the two
the south was always several years behind

John "Mushmouth" Johnson and the Policy Racket

John “Mushmouth” Johnson was a black gambling-house proprietor who made a fortune controlling the city's policy racket and other gambling enterprises.

Johnson had little formal education before he took a job as a porter in a Chicago gambling house in the 1880s. Though not a gambler himself, he learned the business quickly and opened his own nickel gambling house on Clark Street. In 1890 he sold this establishment and opened a saloon and gambling house at 464 South State Street that remained in continuous business for 17 years until his death. Johnson protected his business through bribes to the police and contributions to politicians.

It was a mark of Johnson's success that he became a partner in the Frontenac Club, an establishment that catered only to wealthy whites. Johnson used his money to support “race advancement” causes in the black community, though his business was seen as disreputable by members of the older black elite. After his death in 1907, Johnson's wealth contributed to the establishment of a new black business elite when his surviving sister, Eudora Johnson, married rising black banker Jesse Binga in 1912.

[My neck and my back]

On the youth today it's definitely Chicago...I be when I hear lil nikkas around the bay say "drillin" "gang gang" "opps" cuz I know they got it from the music

 

[AyBrehHam Linkin]

Chief at one point was riding the Bloods dicc but he aint Blood.

Naw he was saying blood gang for his cousin blood money who was killed. Plus BDs (or their predecessors during the various name changes) been rocking red as one of their colors atleast a decade(might even be almost 2) before the bloods were formed.

Also this nikka Keef got kicked off his own block low key
