Bro RA the real, mad creative with it, the plot twists and cliff hangers top tier, very well written and produced big ups to everyone involved

[@lyricalverse98]

wooow, can't wait to see part 2❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@verdeandrettiiforeigncoupe8174]

When?

[@theflux8847]

For those of you that are confused, CHINO was a girl from the start however she was a tom boy and lived the life that the boys around her were living. If you watch it again, you'll pick up on the little easter eggs that were dropped in the song and on the reveal. I think the plot twist worked and added a new perspective to this way of life compared to your typical hood films.

[@BigSmoke-xh5hi]

I hear it but what was the point?

[@mrmike5849]

Thanks for clarifying! lol the rapper is talking about a guy but she’s a chick

[@tioxix2914]

Gets called “he” the whole thing so fuck knows what you’re talking about

[@southeastglock]

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA@@tioxix2914

[@biqqy4315]

No, in the songs R.A is blatantly saying "He, He, He"

[@acdftr]

Amazing RA is so underated can we all just agree on that please?! Storys powerful and very interesting to see different parts and how karma plays a role in this so much! Can’t wait for part 2 🦾🦾🦾

[@cooljoe1420]

[@Glasweg1an]

Loved this. No cap, was watching the first 1/2 thinking Chino reminds me of Young MA. Give us more please. ❤

this was HARDDD

[@ks-nk6jr]

Doris🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@DripHasFNT]

why is jaq from topboy playing as chino when he got older?

[@101beats]

For those confused, it was a girl all along and RA is narrating from our perspective as he doesnt know its a girl either, its called a plot twist. Listen to the lyrics through out it gives hints, the beginning lyrics RA says "all the girls are into him but he aint feeling no girls" so hes either a girl or a gay. Sick short film ratings to RA 👌

[@recodegamesstudio]

Its all sounding a bit zesty brav

[@Torriotorres]

​@@recodegamesstudioWay I look at it, man told an original story, had an original Idea

[@pipeline8554]

or a prepubescent little kid which is what i thought

Gwan nice concept, love the editing and shots used clean and clear salute 👀 open for PT 2

[@jonhsmith8781]

Too far fetched n da ending, her killing her man shooting at da car not knowing if its a opp or friend dont make sense n all shooting n bleeding in the cab like she cant get nicked dont make sense but I'm here to support keep doing you l love it regardless

[@gamedog1snapper]

This film teaches us that the decisions you make when your young plays a role on you when you’re older.

Im confused. Chino went from a he to a she

[@zleepydade305]

Not technically IS A SHE perceived as a BOY growing up but regardless of what we choose to be we can't fool gods creation of us and we either embrace it and grow up or we destroy ourselves with the intent of manipulating that 😂

[@greytape4557]

Dope flick..🔥🔥 however the Narrator (Rapper) could have cleverly concealed the gender of Chino with slick wordplay.

[@kickstownldn9949]

Is this a trans story now or what

[@fufutm2891]

Nah she was always a girl she was just wearing boy clothes

[@cherripxt_]

Is this a trans story showing trans awareness?

[@TedDani-rs3bu]

I hope not

[@user-ig7oz6ni2u]

Probably not cah ra is Muslim on we don't really agree with all that it's probably like a tomboy or smth but hopefully part 2 explains it or smth

[@Mrfrundlesuniverse]

@@user-ig7oz6ni2uBut everyone including RA was referring to her as a he. Even muslims sell out bro 🤣
