im from Knoxville & he aint in da worst areas...he was in da nicer parts of Mechanicsville... he bout 10-20 blocks away from Western Heights & bout a mile or 2 from Lonsdale Homes but he chose to ride in da nicer areas, i aint glorifying da hoods in Knoxville im jus sayin if u doin a video bout da hoods & tryna show ppl da hoods of Knoxville then thas where he should've rode around & then he should've hit da Eastside in Walter P Taylor Homes, Austin Homes, da whole MLK blvd, Cherry St, then he shoulda went to South Knox to Montgomery Village & ill say all around Knoxville isn't rilly a ghetto city... if he wants to ride through hoods in TN... he needs to do a video In Memphis & Nashville & parts of Clarksville...

[@benjamin3813]

Sherry Robson ummm ok BRO(ETTE) when did i say Knoxville was more hood/ghetto than Detroit? Anyone with common sense who's been to both cities or has a little knowledge about both cities would know that Detroit makes Knoxville look like Montana...i guess you don't read much because i did say "all around Knoxville isn't really a ghetto city" & when i was talking about the "ghetto" areas of Knoxville i wasn't making that shit up...how about u take your soccer mom, food network watching, wonderbread ass to Lonsdale Homes or Walter P. Taylor Homes in Knoxville & get out your car & start running that mouth & we'll see if you make it back home with all the stuff you came with... I can almost guarantee you'd get jacked in a matter of minutes...& who gives a damn about Detroit? At this point you almost can't even call it a city because it's so abandoned & deserted...your comment was hella(very) lame... I don't know why i bother with weird, goofy people like you. #youcan'tfixstupid

[@sherry4914]

I have no idea what you're saying or if it's even English. How about you come up here to Detroit and I'll show you what's up. You really think your little punk self is so hard, huh? Hahaha!

[@benjamin3813]

Sherry Robson it's called internet slang-where you shorten longer words but they're still understandable... I guess the only ebonics i may have used were the words "da" & "lil"...you simply not being able to understand my comment just shows your stupidity because it wasn't like i was speaking Thai or Chinese or some shit...& when did i say i was such a hard ass? Lol i love how you make up your own meanings & basically put words in my mouth...& then you replying saying you have no idea what i said is obviously a tactic that stupid person does when they either really can't understand what was said or realize they look foolish. I never claimed, said or gave the impression that I'm some hard ass gangster from Knoxville. Smh 😂😂😂 & I've been to Detroit many times. I have a cousin who lives by Joy Rd so don't try to preach to me about how gangster & hard your city is... You probably live in the burbs like Auburn Hills or Allen Park or some shit, naw fuck that you probably live in Windsor, Ontario lmao. take care of your kids & leave me the fuck alone old lady... You've obviously lost this debate so it'd be nonsensical for you to even reply unless your really some troll who's just talking shit but judging by the channels you're subbed to I'd imagine you're an older white lady way out of your league talking about "ghettos" & "hoods"... #makeMERICAgreatagain

[@sherry4914]

Downtown and midtown is actually becoming vibrant, and quite nice. It's an exciting time to be a part of the city. Of course, outside of these areas is a different story sadly. The downtown areas are definitely just good as those suburbs. When I was speaking of your comments, I was referring to sentence structure, misuse of tenses, and spelling, not necessarily shorthand Internet slang. I'm sorry if my comment on that offended you.

[@benjamin3813]

Sherry Robson your whole comment wasn't offensive but irritating because this isn't an English class... It's the internet & almost nobody including you uses proper English sentence structures, tenses, & everything that makes a proper English sentence. That's the beauty of the internet, you can type shit short & sweet & most ppl will get it... But it's water under the bridge. Oh & i no longer live in Knoxville, i moved to my motherland of Hawaii. So debating about Knoxville is pointless to me now & so is Detroit... Have a gr8 day since your up hella early...
