Mike Tyson-My life as a young thug

[Broke Wave]

Not just the 70's man. All the way up to basically esau Guilliani. The term "Brooklyn Zoo" really isn't just a "Hip Hop Thing". No it was really real. So many neighborhoods condensed into what makes up the core of Central and East brooklyn. And due to the vast transit system, all these dudes and people were around each other. So Brooklyn is huge to outsiders and on stat sheets, but in reality its a congested place when it came to the underworld. Mike Tyson grew up with that wicked puerto rican devil "homocide" that shot up Curtis Jackson. They were running mates. Or Robbing mates I should say. And a whole lot more that I won't really get into. But yeah, Brooklyn was a helluva place, Im just glad that Crip/Blood thing didn't take off or rather taken as seriously as the dudes out in California took it, because it coulda been super crazy.

Sorry for going off on a tangent. Im very sleepy but forced to stay up



Edit addition:

Damn, I responded before I even read the article.

Just the first page alone made me want to cry, because these are true reinactments of every day life we had to endure. Whichever side you're on. And we really thought this was normal.

God damn the White man is the Devil.

And im going to say it AGAIN. THE WHITE MAN IS THE GOD DAMNED DEVIL.

Mike Tyson is one of the realest and bravest people ever. Reading that shyt was amazing


THE fukkING WHITE MAN IS THE DEVIL

[The Fukin Prophecy]

I started going out to Cus’s house every weekend to work out. There were a few other fighters living there with Cus and his companion, a sweet Ukrainian lady named Camille Ewald. When I first got to the house, I would steal money from Teddy’s wallet. Hey, that shyt doesn’t go away just because you got some good shyt going on. I had to get money for weed. I would hear Teddy tell Cus, “It has to be him.”

“It’s not him,” Cus said.

Realest athlete of all time...

Born in 84, and the BK he describes, is the same one I can remember. Unfortunately the Ville is still that grimey

So that night I went to the center. I didn’t know you were supposed to go home and take a shower. I went straight to the center from the pigeon coops, wearing the same stinky clothes with all this bird shyt on me. I thought the guys would accept me as one of their own, because I was chasing these fukking birds off these buildings for them. But I walked in and those guys went, “What’s that smell? Look at this dirty, stinking motherfukker.” The whole place started laughing and teasing me. I didn’t know what to do; it was such a traumatizing experience, everybody picking on me. I was crying, but I was laughing too because I wanted to fit in.

Not for nothing but mike should be a spokesman for child bullying. That shyt shaped his life.
