How Many of Yall From Bad Neighborhoods?

[Wise]

grew up in the lower bottom section of west oakland. Seen way more coke and crack than any little kid is supposed to see. My aunt was a fiend, my mama was a weekend warrior, and we all lived together above a crack house. I didn't have my own bedroom so i slept on a pallet on the living room floor where fiends would walk past my head all night goin in an out of my aunts room. My aunt used to hold bundles so nikkas would come to my house to reup and drop off at all hours of the night also.

blah bla blah fast foward to when i was 13 i tried to shoot a dope fiend with a 22 rifle in broad daylight because he played me for 40 dollars worth of work. None of that shyt seemed wrong at the time

How did you turn out?

Paterson NJ, A lot of crazy stories, being white i used to get checked a lot when I was younger but then it was all good as I grew up, but I seen some crazy shyt and cause of it I respect waking up everyday. Seeing these kids complaining about such minor shyt got me shaking my head like, man if you only knew...a couple quick ones that standout.

1.
Yo I straight up had a female gang jump me back in the day

i turn around to see wtf just happen and there was 5-6 grown ass girls and they just started swinging at me. I ran through school 25 into a pizzeria... those b*tches didn't get my reebok pumps though

Seen a bytch being raped, Saw a guy get stabbed, heard a guy get shot, was a block away from a drive by and cops found the remains of three kids in the house across the street from me. Scary thing is my neighborhood wasnt even that bad.

Worked out a bunch of that bullshyt by the time i was 21 thanks to getting into graffiti and moving to a new neighborhood shortly after that shooting. Still ended up being a drug dealer but not so much because of my fukked up lifestyle or upbringing - but mainly economics. The system is set up to work you until you're dead and in debt, can't really fukk with that. It SEEMS you have to be a little crooked if you want to actually have a life worth living. So that's how i'm living

when i lived off manchester and normandie in the 80s and early 90s, it was rough.

but moving near baldwin hills was an upgrade for sure. basically a black suburb by some standards.

originally from Terrace Ave Hempstead, NY

left when i was 10, apparently got worst when i was in High School. Its been improved a great deal over the years, even though dudes i grew up with still do what they do out there and rap.

The rep of my neighborhood was worse than its bite. I grew up in a middle class section of Alief (SWAT). A lot of my friends were from the surrounding hoods and apartment slums. Every so often there would drive-bys on my street. According to my parents, there was a shootout between rival gangs then they moved and I was like 3 and caught in the middle of it. 2 dudes got shoot a few feet as I was hiding under a car according to me dad. Of course I don't remember any of this but they still got the bullet holes in the garage from that day.
