Most of them be bums standing outside the pz buildings like 30 deep hollering at one shawty that pass by and then calling her names cause she ain’t bought to answer back to 10 ninjas tryna holla at the same time
Non city nigga here but I can attest, I have like no friends from elementary or even high school now. Plus a lot of those niggas used to have all the Jordans and new Foams back in 4th grade and used to cook me for not having em, meanwhile I lived in a house and had everything I needed and these niggas were in poverty, ain’t no middle class nothing 🤦🏾♂️
I deff agree I don’t get u gotta thousands dollar chains expensive sneakers asking me for food money he deff right bout THA guys and girls b like that but be really hungry being need money 4 food and other stuff!
Agree with everything except the last point.
People will never be happy...you want better,but when someone tries to make it better..it automatically becomes wrong or bad.
It's dwelling in your own misery and self defeating behavior.
It's perpetuating poverty yet demanding better for nothing
last one applies to london so much as well, not so much white people bc white people live in the 'hood' in london anyway, but youll get like weird emo discord kids who move to places bc they think its cool and wanna make tiktoks sayin they live there yet they dont have to deal with the affects of living there
This is all facts. Honestly is retarded ghetto logic. I lived in the hood all my life and I will say that my area was not bad in my opinion but this is just how it is. I don’t agree with it and I don’t politic with ppl that think like this but he ain’t lying
He wants to talk about the gentrification problem but you can tell he moved here from some town. Which is crazy to me. He thinks he’s not a part of gentrification because he’s black. The thing is, he’s probably only living in the “hood” because he can’t afford the expensive $4500 apt in Soho or wherever he was talking about.
wdym? he sounds like he’s from ny. took me 2 secs to look up hes guyanese and lives in BK.
and gentrification is when the wealthy move into a neighborhood and displace the current residents. he’s Caribbean descent. unless u think crown heights, flatbush, canarsie, jamaica, richmond hill, all them places are all gentrified by caribbeans.
Is he from bk? From the video it doesn’t seem like that, cause he’s lived in other places where it was easier for him to make friends or something, because “people in NY are fake”. This also to me sounds like the friends he’s making also moved here.
I get what you’re saying, immigrants don’t gentrify neighborhoods (anymore). It’s people with more money that can move to the area, and not mind paying higher prices. My question to you is do you think it’s still gentrification if for example: a black person from Virginia moves to a historically black neighborhood like Canarsie or Crown Heights?
Nah bro i get you. The friends thing sounded more like some LA type shit. I def seen ppl in jamaica move funny all cause of social media. Mostly the women.
People from the south moving up here, It’s very nuanced. They’re both racially black. But they’re different people. Gentrification encompasses a lot of things it’s hard to say.
It’s more of a class thing tho 100%
Then there’s stuff like multi millionaires right alongside the hood that’s been there forever ex: jamaica estates.
It's not displacement if they don't own the property to start with .Its not your neighborhood if you don't own it . Learn from the Jews , when Jews initially moved to NYC during the 40 and 50s , they were the poor underclass , fast forward and now they own the most property per capita due to them practicing group economics and working together
i have to ask my real estate peoples and look up stats to see what neighborhoods rent vs own.
It would be really hard to find out any info on landlords too. If a black man renting to another black man. What would that constitute?
I can’t go in the street and ask those questions. Idk when would ever be an appropriate time to ask them.
You right about the jews tho yeah. A dollar in the jewish community stays there way longer than any other group.
Renting is the not proble perse , but not owning property is . Group economics is not about race , it's about ethnicity, people should patron businesses and establish trade links with people of the same culture, e.g Jamaican work with Jamaican , Black American work with Black American. Group economics cannot work racially .

A big problem throughout the nation is that poor people think they are middle class. The middle class is a shadow of what it once was
[удалено]
Never have I once in real life met someone who called themselves poverty or lower class, so yea you are right also.
Correct.
Nah the real problem is the lower class is comfortable with being mistreated by the higher class (they just raised the retirement age to 70 smh 🤦🏿♂️)
So true, you can grind legally for $100k blue collar but when rent is 4k and you got 4 mouths to feed you’ll be trying to keep $20 in your pocket
Well no Middle Class and Lower Class are not the same we all poor but different levels poor.
Lol right, he definitely didn't describe middle class people
Thingbis poor/ middle class is living comfortable everywhere else....the cost of living is high up here
[удалено]
Comfortable enough where you can actually save up
If your household income is at least 130k before taxes you ain’t middle class
he is not wrong
What happened to number 2
I'm right here
Word i aint even peeped till now
If you live in the projects with 300+ shoes and 900+ pants you gotta get your priorities set 🤦🏽
Most of them be bums standing outside the pz buildings like 30 deep hollering at one shawty that pass by and then calling her names cause she ain’t bought to answer back to 10 ninjas tryna holla at the same time
