Niqqa...you talking about the rest of BK...Im from Crown Heights. We gave birth to the LoLifes and taught the rest of the city and all of hip hop how to dress.
I don't come from much either so I do get it. My mom doesn't make a decision to move from New Jersey to North Carolina I'm probably doing something else not as productive today, but at the same time, I still had to bust my ass with less when opportunities did arise.
You could've just as easily slacked off on your training, given up to hopelessness etc, etc. But you still had to do your part of the equation when the time came. I'm not saying that you have replicable path of success to go play ball at OU. Just, moreso, give yourself a bit more credit than you are now.

“New economy”
“Change mindstate”
“Sacrifice your life”

negro please.Dapper Dan wasn't on Fulton
The reason it’s “luck” is because chance is the differentiating factor.
Obviously you have to work “hard” as billions of human beings do.
But it takes those random acts of chance/opportunity to turn your hard work into wealth.

That’s the thing, your mom changed the entire trajectory of your life. No one is questioning how much you had to bust your ass....but if you lived in parts of NJ I THINK your mom left....maaaaaaaannnn....the opps are even worse for NJ folks living in the shadow of NYC. Those cities are outright neglected. A city like Patterson is stuck in the state of Brooklyn 1988.

No, I let the accountant do her job and I focus on adding income streams.Niqqa....you work WITH your accountant on those type of taxes, not “let them worry about it.”
Ol’ “I heard BIG say my accountant handles that on a record” ass niqqa
The non gentrified (beach) parts of Asbury Park. Neptune that area.That’s the thing, your mom changed the entire trajectory of your life.

But I completely agree with your point that is does take something life altering to upgrade when you're coming from nothing. I guess I'm just saying you have to put yourself in a position for that lucky opportunity to mean anything if that makes sense.

Dapper Dan wasnt for the garden variety negro walking the street.

the LoLifes were for the common NYC man....broke...boosting to be fly...and bringing back Lo to the hood to sell at a steep discount!! We dressed yall niqqas.
RIP to my niqqa Raisin (Hell) with the gucci link in this photo.
I don’t need saving, but a lot of our people do.
And telling them to “change their mindstate” and take advantage of the “new economy” by “sacrificing their life” and “working weekends” ain’t it

Bruh....my neighborhood was NYC’s boosting capital.Might have to sig this one.
Niqqas would bomb the tri state area, even going as far as Redding, PA, to boost Lo. They were LEGENDARY, coming around the way with $400 Lo sweaters, jackets....you name it. This was the 80s. They gave birth to Hip Hop fashion but we didnt know it. Had Wu and the rest of NYC niqqas thirsty to get outta their “same ol’ Lo sweaters.”
