"you're cute but weird"

a lot of nikkas have heard this

 

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

yeah im not denying that.
but we have to hold all parties resposoble.
alot of dudes dont even shoot their shot then get mad when the "thugs' get all the girls.
most females are shy and expect dudes to initiate the conversation.

A lot of the dirty nikkas were more aggressive and out there...plus "peer pressure".
A small percentage of dudes were fukking a high percentage of chicks...some nikkas got left out in the cold even though the numbers were on their side. I know dudes now who haven't got p*ssy in months...years...They're lame as fukk, though and get too excited.

Then I started hanging with car thieves and dopeboys...battle rapping...smoking weed w/ the dirty nikkas...riding with the dirty nikkas...living with the dirty nikkas..."That dirty nikka is special, he's not like them"...#TROLLED

I will say that being "weird" became cool to BW around 07-08 so if you under 25 you have a skewed view

Truth.. One of the things that kind of scares me raising my son. If he winds up having alot of non-black friends. I really can't blame him.

awkwardness and nerdiness are becoming more acceptable in pop culture.
did you see 21 jump street.
thats literally how HS is now.
maybe not to the extreme as that movie but its shifting toward that.
all that rah rah thug shyt isnt attractive especially if youre from the hood.

It was always cool...just not in groups. They had to keep up with their friends. Now it's flipped. A jawn turns 18 EVERY DAY...

They get the cars and money first...or at least they used to. I remember when the homie Joe had a real Rolee in 10th grade. All the J's...gold fronts, new velours...hair was always braided...nikkas pulling up in old schools only 16! There's another reason for the shift: That crack money dried up and pills ain't selling...Nobody's super getting it on the street tip anymore. That's not the picture of power.

Self-confidence/assurance and swag are two different things. Indian, Korean, etc. dudes are some of the most swagless men on the planet. But, they build families and stack money. They own businesses the Black men with swag throw money at in every Black neighborhood. They're busy extracting wealth out of our communities, while we're focused on looking the part! When Black women say they want a man with swag, they aren't talking about self-confidence and assurance. They're talking about an elevated sense of self-worth (earned or unearned), explicit materialism, etc.

Most Black American women lack self-confidence, so they look for something or someone they can latch onto to give the appearance of it. If the man with "swag" chooses her, she must be worth something, too. It's no different than the shy kid hoping the popular kid hangs out with him in the cafeteria. By proximity, the shy kid becomes popular. What he lacked, he's gained by association, even if that's not truly the case. The fact that "swag" is at the top of most Black women's list of criteria is quite telling.

Swag is the dumbest shyt going in the Black community. It's the peacock syndrome. nikkas prance and strut because they have no real power. A peacock is harmless, but it looks fly.

I forget who it was so said it, but it's kinda true. But, it's also sad at the same time.

A young, Black male being attractive to non-Black girls early in life is probably his best bet for survival in this society if he doesn't have a strong male figure to guide him. Young Black males who try to attract young Black girls usually go off the deep end and never recover. nikkas end up with felonies, dead or just fukked up, in general, before they even reach 22.

It's much easier for a Black woman to recover if she fukks up early in life. That isn't the case for young, Black men. So many nikkas are dead by 22--figuratively and literally. Sad thing is for the former, their bodies don't get the memo for another 30-50 years so they just languish here in this society.

I'm 26. Graduated HS in 2006. I'm the same age as Drake, Kendrick. It was NOT cool to be "weird" or "outside the box" back in high school. Whatsoever. If you were you got no play out in these streets It's why you have that old video of Drake on MTV Cribs talking like a fake thug eventhough he lived in Canada and was still Jimmy on Degrassi. That was the era.

Hood culture adapts to whatever rap culture is. Remember baggy pants and throwback jerseys/fitteds
