One thing about the hood once I got out IM NEVER COMING BACK JACK

[@livennlearn]

I grew up In Harlem, literally seen ppl get killed, had shit stolen, guns pulled on me had to walk around with a weapon. Beat the shit outta ppl, gotten my ass beat. It’s so surreal to me now to go back to my hood and realize how dangerous it is. I also realize how little i had to live for and nothing to lose. If I catch a case now, my job will know within 24hours and I’ll lose everything. Thank god I made it out.

As a former hoodlum.. the hood is weak. I see it now. Yea it take a certain toughness to live there but it take a certain weakness to not leave … read that again… the hood is comfortable. Drinking smoking sex low work ethic outside of those 3 things and that’s most hood “Men”. Sad reality. Most of the “tough” guys are just emotional kids that never grew out of their feelings/trauma… now that I’m rehabilitating I can see clearly how I was living and how many of live today

It's funny that Gil said that, but when he was playing in DC, he was good in the hood. He'd show up to Barry Farm in the summer (the Rucker Park of DC) and pull up and leave his car windows down. Nobody touched it. If you know the Farms, it was not the ranch.

Decisions made in the past by my great-grandparents, grandparents and parents, put me in a position where I didn't live and grow up in the hood or sketchy areas. Yep, I was a middle-class kid. Not embarassed at all about it. If growing up and living grimy is a badge of honor for people, hats off to them. People before me made choices that weren't good for them at that moment, to make life for themselves better later, and to improve the lives of their future offspring. I agree with Gil, I'm not trying to keep anything real for clout lol.

[@RosteeveBellier]

Exactly. I don’t have offspring and if I did we would be far from any “hood”

[@Mr.JayDice]

Absolutely brother, god bless my parents

[@mg19cal]

I started life off in a rough neighborhood then my parents got money and moved us to the suburbs before I really knew what the difference was as far as "the hood" and "middle class." I was just happy to be in a house with my own room. But kids made it seem like I wasn't "tough" just because of where I ended up living. Like, I don't have to prove to anyone how tough I am because my *PARENTS* worked hard. If anything, they taught me that if in fact I do work hard, I can have nice things in this world and not be limited to my surroundings. But if folks wanna have that "I'm gonna always be from the 'hood" mentality to never leave it, more power to them. I was basically Esquire from "ATL"

Respect also means, all that flashy shit, jewelry, watches, everything comes off. Don’t care who you are. All that shit gotta stay home. If you go where they hungry, those items can cost you your life.
