5 Annoying Misconceptions of New Yorkers

[Raw Lyrics]

There’s mad cultural differences between Brooklyn and Uptown. I swear to God before 2012 I never heard nobody even mention a chopped cheese before. It was that 40 Oz Van/Desus and Mero (uptown nikkas) wave in 2013 that had the whole world screaming “YERRR” and traveling across the seven seas to NYC for chopped cheeses

Yo also, “bodega” is some uptown shyt. The word even sounds like some Spanish shyt. Nobody calls corner stores bodegas in BK or Queens

FOH!!! I been calling bodegas bodegas in Brooklyn since 1985, wtf! Are you from Brooklyn?

 

[Don Snow]

Facts, Brooklyn all my life and never heard of chopped cheese till I started hanging in Harlem maybe 6 years ago

I’m from Brooklyn too and My boy from Queensbridge put me on to chopped cheese in 2007 when I got to high school

What made you feel entitled enough to think that you could compose paragraphs about New York, being that you live in the Midwest?

I listen to a lot of Wu Tang Clan and Sean Price.

New Yorkers really think they're some special breed of human being

I swear those brehs are naturally hilarious

Bronx people always seem more low key and wary of others. When you ask them where they from they say “Bronx” under their breath and leave it at that. Also seem to be more Latin culture mixed in. Seem very loyal but difficult to read emotionally. There is definitely some pain there.

When I tell people I'm from the Bronx, I say it with my whole chest. Nothing but pride for my home borough.

Last person i met from NY was very cool.. very pro-black

I never asked him what part though, but he put me on game about people (all races too) at my previous job.
