Did Ab give him the name Skinny Me?
That's what I thought. Ab basically said "this is the skinny version of me".
Dude used to go by B. Holla.
No. He said it was how he used to describe himself on social media when posting pics with folks...instead of using his name, he'd say "Skinny Me", X & Y. And it stuck from there. He not from Ab block...they from completely different parts of North Philly. He with through Ab through his brother...that met Ab in jail.

I'm not sure if y'all follow Philly Hip-Hop but he did an interview with Phillyfame like 5-6 yrs ago. That clip posted maybe from that interview. Phillyfame did interviews with everyone in Philly's underground.

Oh yeah his whole family in the streets.

Interesting, i did not follow the Philly hiphop scene. So what exactly did this guy do that earned him a life sentence? Was he terrorising the hood and harming innocent civilians ?

"Allegedly" he has multiple bodies...He was actually booked before this entire OBH thing went down, for a murder. But he's no different than any other young hood dude into that life heavy. There was no "oh we got Skinny!"

nikka said "I seen him do it, I know that for a FACT"

Ar-Ab was so ridiculous we all thought he was just trolling the whole time :laff: :snoop:
That's the thing.. And this isn't some sideways diss to anyone.. But those who was in the streets KNEW everything was real. His raps, delivery and voice... He rapped like he just sold a pack and came inside, laid a verse, and went out to shoot somebody. It was TOO real, too vivid, too many "little things" that only a criminal would know. There was no extra fly shyt of the Jay-Z type of dealer. nikka was rapping like the grimiest of street dudes that you FEARED cause they was just not all the way there... And had a team that was not all the way there...

And watching these videos live and playing those mixtapes live.. nikkas knew. That's why everyone kept trying to save him and put him on and tell him shut the fukk up. He would not listen. Like one of those dudes who makes 100 million but can't retire the drug game. This nikka could not leave the streets alone and could never NOT let you know that

No one try to save him from the streets, though. Dude didn't start seriously rapping until he was damn near 30, at that point there was nothing to save. And he was always a grimey corner dude, until later...when he became a grimey block captain. He was never gonna see any real money as a rapper. He best bet was using his charisma to be in front of the camera as a professional full-time. His raps are no more real than Beans, Oschino's, Kre Forch, Chic Raw, Roscoe P, Wyze, Vodka, Frank Grippaz, OT the Real and 100s of other part-time Philly rappers.

The only people from his team that wasn't all there is Lik Moss. When he would talk about Lik, he'd say 'my little brother in jail right now...robbing and shooting an old lady. That's the kind of stuff he did" The rest of them were broke North Philly young'ns that get into anything. There's a bunch of them, and Ar-Abs on every corner in Philly.

He expressed it too. "My kids would be straight if I never was to spit, I couldn't say the same if I never seen a brick"

a lot of this was avoidable, I remember watching an interview where he said he had some profitable plumbing business going, so it's not like he had no options, moving his family out of the hood was a great 1st step, he should've kept that mentality going...
