French Montana on His Dad Locked Up in Morocco, Abandoning Family After They Moved to US (Part 1)

[@RigbyJitBihh24]

When he said "I couldn't do nothing like get a job, couldn't go to college, the things average Americans take advantage of every day" was a gut PUNCH!! I instantly went back to my teenage years & wish I could've done so much differently!! ShoutOut Montana!!

[@StanFlacko]

What do you wish that you could have done differently?

[@timothymoore2966]

That’s real talk.

21 Savage said the same thing

[@bigzachful]

Ok but jobs need to be done to keep this civilization afloat. If you want your electricity, and house, cellphone and WiFi, you need people going to work to do thier job. Being rich is just to buy women like a pathetic mf. They get rich and can now get all the women they want. You can make $80-120k a year working a trade and get a beautiful wife.

[@user-wb7nv9ht1g]

Vlad seems like he didn't have friends growing up and people only like him for money or what he can do for them. He needs the ridiculous clothes to remind himself that he's not the guy he was growing up. Everything seems so forced and unnatural, which makes him seem more unlikable. Him on Ghostfride the Whip was so embarrassing.

[@TankDavisConquers]

She was able to come here and live off the 200 years of work already done. She had no system back at home so she went to a country with one.

[@Dynasty19]

Respectfully, your mother was a woman with kids; there was always going to be some type of provision for her in a gynocentric system, no matter what. If a lady walks into just about any place other than maybe a prison in America and someone observes that she's pregnant or with children, almost immediately, someone is going to assist her in some capacity. That's the benefit of being in a first-world country. On another note, glad your family made it. 👍

[@Crown42]

Lol, you black Americans think America lets immigrants come here because of you guys? The answer is no! The sole reason why is because of cheap labor and to keep this nation afloat due to the low birth rate in America. ​@@TankDavisConquers

[@Juelz-r5h]

Facts bro

[@user-wb7nv9ht1g]

He's awkward at telling his story. Why did he mention about the only thing he could do was to sell drugs and then say that he couldn't even sell drugs. Was he an illegal alien? He doesn't even explain that, maybe this is a cliffhanger and it's some genius storytelling. I'm guessing not

His father has a whole other narrative of what happend. He was on national tv in Morocco at a show called my story. Bassically when they left as a familly he left all his money and assets with his in laws went back to Morocco. The fatjer gave his brother in law permission to buy land and build a villa. The brother in law made him sign papers in french saying it were just legal documents for the house. And that were it all started to go wrong. Because his parents were old and sick and he went back to visit. he found out that his villa was not in his name and his gold was stolen. He went to court and sued then but the inlaws paid off the lawyers and witnesses. Long story short he could not return to the usa to his kids because he was denied. He denounced even his morrocan citicinship and set himself on fire as a protest. He wanted to go back to his kids. He admitted there was nothing to live for because his wife and inlaws ganged up and him and alienated him from his kids. and it took him a long time to accept his bad luck. You can find it on youtube only there are no subtitles unfortunatly

A 16 yr old in Morocco is a lot more mature than in America. People need to realize in harsh environments people grow up quicker. 16 year olds in developing countries speak and act like they are in the 30s. They have jobs, businesses, and take care of whole families. You can’t compare 16 year olds in developing countries to people in the West who watch Sponge bob into their 30s. Luxury makes you soft and mature at a much slower rate.

[@anasseYM]

I assume you’ve never been in Morocco, because it’s actually the opposite. Morocco has a strong sense of family, so generally kids move very late from their parents home. Even though Morocco is poorer than the US, the kids are way more sheltered in my opinion.

[@noneya3969]

@@anasseYM I actually have been to Morocco, and what does living with your parents have to do with anything? That’s a cultural thing, and for girls, it’s a religious thing. Family is very important in the Arab and Muslim community. They’re very close knitted and they take care of one another. A person can be married and still live with his parents because they take care of their parents. How does being family oriented equate to being sheltered? You’re saying the 7 year old selling fruit in the street in Morocco who doesn’t know when his next meal is is more sheltered than the 16 year old in LA who’s never worked a day in his life and spends all day eating pizza bites and playing fortnight?
