Where “Snoop” From The Wire Grew Up | VICE on HBO, Raised In The System (Bonus Scene)

[@sunmeethanspal1391]

The fact that the wire doesn't have a single Emmy win is an absolute artistic tragedy. This show is a masterpiece.

What?!😮 That's WILD...smh!🤦🏾‍♀️

[@brido88]

Fun fact: Michael K. Williams (Omar) met Felicia Pearson (Snoop) in a Baltimore club and later, took her to the set of the Wire to meet the writers and the producers. This is how she got an audition, and subsequently the part of Snoop. I think that's a pretty cool story.

[@richardboyd4477]

[@MrKoirakanava]

@@ekLuca That's pretty much said in the story how he got in the series, they didn't know her, and if they would have Snoop in the script she most likely would be A) man and B) already casted in the series like everyone else. Writers do change things all the time, but this was impressive how well everyone did, considering she wasn't actor at all.

the nuclear family is a capitalist construct designed to isolate people from their extended family. without grandparents, aunties, uncles to help raise children, parents are overworked and exhausted. they rely on consumer products and services to keep their kids fed, entertained and educated. the nuclear family is a fragile concept and relies on gender roles to be strictly upheld. it doesn't work which is why communities decay, why children feel isolated, why they seek belonging in the wrong places. “it takes a village” is some of the truest words ever spoken.

I met Snoop once. She came into a North Baltimore liquor store where I was working while the Wire was still being aired (2006-ish), but I did not have HBO and had not seen any of it yet. I remember she asked for a bottle of expensive champagne that was behind the counter, and possibly a bottle of Hennessy too. When I rung her up she mumbled "don't you give discounts to movie stars?" To which I replied "if you're a movie star, you can afford full price... but what movie you in?" "The Wire." "That's not a movie, that's a TV show." She did not like that response, but she paid for the bottles and left! 🤣🤣

It's amazing to see that Michael K. Williams and Felicia Snoop Pearson are still tight and good friends. He brought her to David Simon and it's been Great.

Canary Yo you ain’t lie born Columbia Maryland but raised Bmorecareful till the ALPO wars in Dc started happening my grandma sent me my brother and moms to south central of all places and every summer my grand parents made me come back to Baltimore and every summer I had to make new friends cus the ones from summer past was dead or locked up. But I tell you one thing to this day can’t not one of these LA niggaz Fux with me cause they all about running in packs but you call em out by name 7-10 they fold, Even my NYC FAM they look at a little wide eyed when I first told em Bodymore or Bmorecareful nah mean we had the term savage way before chiraq!

719 YunGn no my whole family is in Dc, Baltimore, Philadelphia. My pops side of the family is from Baltimore and I was born in Columbia Maryland. My Grandparents lived in the sticks in Spencerville if you must no my whole pedigree. But my mother and my pops weren’t married or together because he and my uncles are all still in the game in West Bmorecareful. My mom wanted a better life so she worked during the day and went to night school to become a registered nurse now how many people that live in the Baltimore area just stay on their 4 block radius? Not nobody trying to make it out. That’s that white folks thinking that you a brother from Baltimore and a sister from DC ain’t ever gonna cross paths it wasn’t like that in the 70’s in their day that Bmore vs. DC didn’t start until the crack era. During the Black Power Movement it wasn’t like that people from the chocolate city triangle before you get south of Virginia all mingled with love for each other. Anything else you want to question about my pedigree? My momma moved us wherever the money was I even lived on the island of Barbados from 82-84. Just cus you ain’t never been to DC don’t mean every other brother has the same life story as you. Sheet in LA She had to drive an hour every morning from East LA to the WESTSIDE where the schools were better from 7th grade until I graduated and that is NORMAL ACTUALLY COMMON CUS NOTHING IF YOU REALLY WANNA GET OUT YOU GOTTA GET OUT BUT THAT DON’T MEAN SHE DIDNT SEND ME BACK EVERY DAMN SUMMER SO I COULD HAVE SOME KIND OF RELATIONSHIP WITH MY FATHER, Don’t assume like white folks do that we all have the same story cus that makes an ass out of you unless you know or knew me and my family. Anything else you I owe you????

I was pissed how they had marlo play on power as a hatian dude. I thought maybe he would've played similar to what he did on the wire. I hope snoop joins the cast.

I thought the Marlo guy was the worst actor in the bunch. I could’t believe a word he said, just seemed fake
