Well yea it’s not something to take pride in I agree. But at the end of the day that is life, their life and lifestyle. They all connect w the same kind of struggles. So in order to keep moving ofc their gonna hold down an integrity of hope and positivity. They not bouta start the video off w having the mentality of ohh you can’t make it from living in the hood.. bc that is not true. Ofc they’d prefer if they were more privileged. So it’s really bout having the perception that’s gonna get you farther from where you began.

This is the worst hood clogs I’ve seen yet. No message at all just a bunch of bums that wanna be like Cali gangs

Its called stupidity. Ive been saying it all my life. You claiming a streeet corner and projeoyou dont own! The city of NY owns it dummies. Smh… sad after all these years people still moving in circles

Robert Moses was the creator of the buildings called projects. They were originally for soldiers coming back from war. Those soldiers lived in the projects until they eventually moved out. Robert Moses devised a scheme to have other individuals move in so the cities won’t lose money. Those individuals that moved in sadly never left. Black snd Hispanic people. I am a New Yorker and still live in NY. I know my history. Look up Robert Moses and who he was and what he did. His name is all over NY. He was the head of many government agencies AT THE SAME TIME that dealt with real estate. Long Island Ny is segregated because of him

Man in reality it's like that round the world and it's sad fr. What's even sadder is that it ain't gon change, ain't nobody gon wake up from it.

Good for you! For real, congratulations. I can’t believe these lack of awareness idiots in the video are not aware of their own actions words and decisions. In 2021 everyone has never had more freedom to do as they please with their life. Bottom line none of these people are in better places and situations because they CHOOSE not to. Of course it won’t be easy but it’s their lack of dealing with discomfort that stops them. Just like anything and anyone else that doesn’t improve in (fill in the blank).

Hey brother give some games to young kings too show them the way not everyone is smart enough to see the mess their in them selfs sometimes u show people the mess their in so that they can be woke and change them selfs

@@kingstone2457 that’s a fact. Life isn’t easy. Sometimes the most difficult thing we can do is walk away from the life we know to the life we don’t. The crazy part is. It’s the easiest and the fastest path to real growth and self preservation. We all have a purpose and a skill. If you good at selling drugs you can be good at running a business. If you good at writing rhymes you can be good at being an author. If you’re good at stealing cars you can be good at running a repo business. If you a wild boy and like that street action you can put in that same work in a private security company, military, U.S Marshall or the Police. We all have god given talents that we can use for our advancement or our demise. It’s just a matter of choice and making that firm decision to make a change. Even if it means walking away and living thousands of miles away from people you know and love. Our fear of change unfortunately is the reason we have so many of the people we grew up with either dead or doing football numbers in the Penitentiary. We all couldn’t wait to jump off the stoop and run the streets. We need to apply that same passion when it’s time to jump off the streets and into manhood. Many of us wasn’t scared of those streets. Even though we knew what was out there. We heard a million and one horror stories but it didn’t phase us. We were going to make a name for ourselves in the hood. By any means necessary. Even if it meant going up against known killers. We did that. So why would we be afraid to recognize that the streets have an expiration date of 21. If you make it past that, it’s time for phase 2. Take all that you’ve learned. All that you’ve earned. And find your true potential. Leave. Leave the hood. Leave the streets. Go be uncomfortable again. Suburbs. Corporate America. Business ownership. Stand alone again. No friends or family. Just you and the world. Nobody in your ear telling you what you can and can’t do. Just your natural street instinct helping you navigate this thing called life. And when you reach that level of success or accomplishments you never thought you would get to. Go back home and show them what happens when you walk away from the streets and everyone you know. Show them proof that there is a life outside of the hood. And it ain’t that hard. You just have to overcome your self doubt and fear. The reason many of us never see success. True success. Is because success lives on the other side of fear. And once you can push past that fear. Everything you ever wanted is sitting right there waiting for you. 💯🍾🥂

@Black Ops Everything you said is so true and inspiring. I’m trying to get out of the hood (Bronx) and I’m not even apart of the hood politics. I’ve been racking my brain for years.

There's no love in this world

Fact of the matter is a lot of people dunno about all those programs, and on top of that, there is also the environment and pressure to take into account. A lotta people really do grew up getting told and believing the only way out is trap, hoop, or bang. Plus trappin and banging is quicker money than spending a bunch at college for a degree so people go for that. It sucks and hopefully things change but shit is gettin even tougher out here with everything getting even more expensive in NYC.

@@KiraDaBeastNY um college is actually free for those who can’t afford it. They could all be in college right now bettering themselves. My parents came here with a language barrier and my dad retired from 2 hospitals in NYC. My mom used financial aid to go to college. My husband is American and I make sure he uses financial aid for school. They don’t want to know about it. I guarantee they all have Smart Phones.

New York is full of opportunity for sure.

@@arleneaugustahair8393 financial aid is not free. They will have to pay it back 6 months after their graduation date. And it’s not guaranteed that you’ll get all the funding for school from financial aid or any at all.

Schooling is really a privilege and congratulations to your husband and yourself.

I’m not in any way saying the neighborhood is so far anything but it’s far from the most dangerous neighborhood in New York.
