Born and raised in East Harlem! I love my East Harlem, and I love how everything is so accurate! I grew up on 108th and lex! Keep it up my guy, I love how happy you embrace our east Harlem! You should also talk about the racism there was between Puertoricans and Mexicans in the late 80’s - 90’s. I’m Mexican, but the stories my pops would tell me when he immigrated in East Harlem, was insane. I love this! Keep it up man 🙏🏽

I grew up in East Harlem. We always have had some great people. Unfortunately, there were some homies who moved to the “the dark side of the Force” but for the most part just great people. We didn’t have much when we came from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 but to me we always had family. Look at all the pictures in his house. I have moved up in the world thanks be to GOD. However, my mom still lives in Franklin Plaza and it will always be home. I visited my 90 year old mom there yesterday. Beautiful people. Much ❤️ and respect for this young man in the video. He spoke from the heart ❤️ and told it like it is. Lots of great people in El Barrio. This video made my day and I thank you very much.

You're real Bro,!! Its great to see another brother make it from a hard tough life to a successful Latino man. Much respect to you. Keep the strength and faith. God Bless.

That's a very nice spacious apartment you got in the Jects my G, I respect how y'all take pride and still live clean and comfortable. All signs of RESPECT. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

[@chandraanjelica5608]

it looksspacious but its not. your shoulders are about 2 inches off the wall when walking. its just the cut that makes it look spacious. the rooms are nice sized tho depending on the apartment line. Some apartments have huge rooms and then others have rooms that are a little bigger than a closet. all in all we greatful for a roof.
