NY breh says he only realized how sweet NY ppl really are until going to ATL.

[Thurgood Thurston III]

ny is a police state. cops everywhere especially the city. and those just the cops u see. hella undercover as well and cameras everywhere. The subway late at night is a different story tho.

Never felt safer living anywhere but i don't go around looking for trouble either. This during the bloomberg years don't know about now.

It's even safer now. I was wilding out during the Bloomberg years

NY nikkaz do be talking crazy to each other. You can tell by how they were talking to each other during the Verzuz battles. I was like damn, “them there is fighting words.’

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

NY nikkas not gonna crash over an argument just don’t mess with their bread or their chick and it’s all good took me along time to get used to that because NY people do talk crazy and act like shyt is supposed to be all good afterward like it never happened

Not at all…. NY nikkas talk greasy to one another and can be extremely disrespectful…. shyt don’t fly in most of the south

Just like Donny said, we don't crash out over little shyt.

In fact, we don't talk greasy to each other as much as you think.

The vast majority of people in NY are just minding their business.

Rappers do not represent us.

 

[How Sway?]

It took some ATLiens to show him how soft he is huh?

completely different mentalities

NYC is the heaviest policed city on earth crime up here is more political than savage

I can't speak on ATL; but its also socially acceptable to do all types of hard drugs down south.


those hoods are extremely segregated with no municipal resources.


a lot of them are one way in one way out type shyt.

these guys are zooted with automatics ready to squeeze for the most trivial shyt.

Hard Drugs being normal is more of a recent thing (last 15-20 years). Growing up anything that wasn't weed = being a J and even Weed was seen as bumpy if you were smoked out. ATL has been a Cartel Hub and in general a Drug hub but being a junkie is some new stuff (look at the music reflecting it too).

The Hollywood shyt also made the drug stuff more accepted vs being some dont ask dont tell shyt among people with money or into that freaky Diddy lifestyle nobody wants to talk about.

in the 00s down south those brehs were rolling and sniffing like it was weed.


blew my mind.


I can only imagine now whats going on now.


I'm far removed from that.


I know now up top around our way they're on all sorts of pharmectuical hard drugs like its cool.



I've heard idiots up our way talk down about cocaine while upping doing adderol and all sorts of pill heroin.

in my era it was common to get jumped or get your face cut; can't speak on now.



but those fighting words never resulted in a fair one; it got ugly every time.

Growing up the pills stuff was some suburban white kid stuff, but Gucci Mane Pillz came out 06 now that I think about it which was during that Black Hollywood transition of the 2000s so I Guess you can say 2010s folks stopped hiding it lol

 

[El_Mero_Mero]

Y’all talk greasy too though y’all just get shot afterwards

yeah, that tends to happen in less develop regions

the conflict resolution hasn't been developed yet

less law and order and more lawlessness

Less civilized for sure

Never felt more safe in my life walking down a street at 2am than I did in NY.


Other than a rat jumping out, I felt nothing to worry about.

That's not to say NY wasn't bad in 80s or early 90s maybe. But not now.

It also depends where you were walking, no?

 

[ORDER_66]

Why is this something to be PROUD of?!?!?

 

[Don Snow]

Lmao where is this nikka really from cuz he’s definitely not from the townz



Dumb nikkas really think people in NYC don’t have guns


3.5 for a hammer biggest police force in the world and nikkas still shooting

Idk who told him he could talk crazy to NYC nikkas lmao

Come to flatbush or Brownsville and get turned into a duppy thinking shyt sweet

As someone who was an Atlanta transplant before the city blew up, I got stories for days.

I remember one time we had a pick up game in a popular park on the Northside. It basically attracted people from all over the city, including people of different economic backgrounds.

So your boy plays bully ball on the court. Literally, if I decide to play strong no one is stopping me. It so happened I was bullying the other team all day, and at one point I grab an offensive board over two dudes, with the put back and yelled out "bytch!!!".

That's when one of these scrawny 125lb gangbangers straight up said, "Ain't no bytches out here, I'll make your mama miss you".

It could have gone several ways. I could have acted tough and called his bluff and see what happens. I could have called one of the homes off the strength of the threat and we all probably go to jail. I chose the most mature response which is I apologized and dapped it up with him after the game. Long story short, I def learned to watch my mouth in a casual setting because not everyone is down for the back and forth.

I question if this dude is from anywhere near NYC or just NY state. Some of the loudest ones aren’t even from here

We have 8 million people here we have some a$$holes like anywhere else just like we have tons of chill people as well

Judging a whole city or region as the same is retarded

I’m sure we can find a few people in the south who may not shoot someone for just being annoying if we look hard enough

People are obesessed with “humbling” NY’ers

They fantasize about doing it like republicans fantasize about shooting people stealing deodorant from a CVS
