Will.i.am on Living in East Los Angeles | Exclusive Interview | NELA TV

[@alexunlv]

Wowa! This is a shock. Never knew this vato was from East LA. Ain't that some shit. He sounds Latino! Saludos compa!

[@woodygangster9821]

This homie right here is the real deal I remember when his grandma gave him his first DJ system he was so excited he as well as I saw a lot of our young homies that we grew up with from elementary to High School some of the homies fell off and got murdered it affected him as well as the rest of us I'm glad he made it out as well because the corner that he lived in was the hottest spot to be on the north side of him there was 8th Street Locos on the west side there was Opal Street Locos where he lived was varrio Nuevo Estrada courts projects and every other block there was a different gang within the 10 mile radius there was only maybe 5 black families just like him trying to survive in the heart of East Los Angeles where there's 99% Chicanos and 1% any other race

[@Jessuschrist]
