Old heads, what were some things you HATED about the 90s?

[NYC Rebel]

90s nikkas really aint shyt

Yall were horrible parents, didnt build shyt, killed eachother at higher rates, went to jail at higher rates, ya females gassed up thugs, beat eachother up for getting good grades, yall were all crack babies n made crack babies yaselves. All yall pleasure comes from the media constantly reminiscing over cartoons, movies n shyt

Now yall sitting inthe 2010s all

I can't front. I can't STAND when dudes my age complain about kids today and I'm like "hold up...our generation made those kids!"90s niqqas werent the ones on crack. That was 80s Coke heads turned crack heads. 90s niqqas were the ones supplying that work.



Thing you don't seem to realize is that we lived through a genocide. We were teens when the gov intentionally flooded our community with drugs. And the same older heads who used to look out for teens in the late 80s to keep them out the game intentionally looked for us because we were under 18 and wouldn't see serious time being in the game of caught. Y'all dudes have no idea what it was like to be around that paradigm shift. You only know the end result.

Plus....the generation before us sold is on the "dream" of integration which failed at our doorstep.

We were in the middle of both sides like

1. more black girls compared to today was afraid of giving head......but since the internet craze and more black guys today going after white girls cause they give head, sisters totally going all out giving dome

2. you couldn't order pizza at a lot of spots over the phone

 

[Wild self]

The violence. I don't miss that. 2000 murders in NYC back in 92. I lost a lot of friends due to senseless violence. I don't miss that

BK back in them days just was...inhumane. People of that Era still suffer from Trauma of what they did 20+ years ago. Like MOP and Maino who still on that super goon shyt.

 

[NYC Rebel]

It was a mess. Hell, some parts of the north BX was like Act III on East 241st. My God, that was a death trap for all the older dudes back then.

It was so wide spread. When I went away to OU in the early 90s, I knew a middle class preachers son who was so awe struck by the game thinking I'd be like him because I'm from Brooklyn. I was like "nah dog...I'm running away from that shyt." Months later I see middle class preachers boy with some obviously LA gangsters setting up shop in Oklahoma. In 92' they found the preachers son and his girl with billets in their heads, stuffed in a closet in OKC.

Soooo many stories like this from the 90s. Lots of dunderhead niqqas who has no business being in the game that became nothing but food to them goons.

 

[Jimi Swagger]

Back in the 90's when I had a relaxer I got a wash and style every 2 weeks and a relaxer every 8 weeks on the dot.

Your parents had some money. Perms and maintenance cost

The sad thing about it? People outright called you soft for avoiding trouble and even go out their way to make your life miserable for minding your own business. Even worse, people felt like they had to be "real" by doing that shyt. Glad my parents schooled me early on how people fake their images are and how people front.

Hard to say, but outside of entertainment and easy money, the 90s was a hard ass Era that had to end, mentally speaking.

I will say that even though them 90s nikkas aint shyt at least they told (in my experience) us 90s kids to stay away from all that fukkery.

Yeah dog. I got a homie still doing time for plugging two dudes down in B-More for "GP" when a bunch of NY niqqas flooded Baltimore with crack. We lived through a genocide

Mannnnn....90s ny niqqas were looking for under 18 niqqas to put on the game becussdbecaise they wouldn't See serious time. The 90s broke all codes

 

[itsyoung!!]

the violence and fukkery... mafukkas couldnt even leave they garage door open more than 10 minutes without being around without someone tryna steal something


but if I had to trade 2000-2016 for 90-99 I would... as much as im on the internet/social media - it ruined almost everything good about everything..

I don't think today's heads understand how it was to not have that shyt in your life then suddenly see it change. That paridgm shift. In my old apartment building, every year the tenants used to all get together and put up a Christmas tree. In 88 someone decided to steal that tree and there ended our communal relationship. Felt vulnerable there after...nothing was sacred any longer

I can't front. I can't STAND when dudes my age complain about kids today and I'm like "hold up...our generation made those kids!"90s niqqas werent the ones on crack. That was 80s Coke heads turned crack heads. 90s niqqas were the ones supplying that work.

The absolute truth. It was a genocide that damn near succeeded. Even in black suburbs like Hempstead Long Island and Mt Vernon were deathtraps. Their high schools, people did every crazy thing from selling Crack to security guards, raping women, breaking jaws off of substitute teachers, brawls, beefing with black nerds and so on.

When I saw high school kids embrace Kanye West back in the mid 00s, and see black kids smiling and being less violent, it made me because that mentality of the 90s was dying and black folk embraced being normal folk.

90s NY dudes are a whole other thing back then breh their level of fukkery almost got my cousin killed *although he was dumb as fukk*

A lot of the 90s heads around my way wouldn't force you into stuff, but they would give you their war stories, and made them sound glorious, but if you wanted to play they wouldn't keep you from the game.

They were just straight up about the lifestyle. Them 80s doe boys were the ones you needed to worry about when I was a kid in TN. On some, "you wanna makes some hunnids young cuz'?"

90s NY niqqas ran the east coast drug trade until outta towners got sick of their shyt.

It's the one thing I loved about the Wire. The tension against NY niqqas on that show was real. 90s NY niqqas flooded that city.
