Moving from Philly to NY, I didnt think would be a big cultural difference, but goddamn :damn:
Im staying in Jamaica, Queens, but I want to live farther north soon, maybe Flushing or Elmhurst.

- NY'ers aint soft. I aint seen no violence, no fights, not even a gun, but I can tell niccas aint suckas.

- Nikkas think my Philly accent is "country" :mjcry:

- So many cultures and diversity. Seems like whenever I see a brother, and say "wassup", breh responds in a crazy ass accent, either Jamaican/ African/ French/ some shyt i dont comprehend...
I cant hold a convo with them Jamaican niccas, breh.

- That E train is a journey

- Shyt is segragated as hell. I aint seen no white people at all in Jamaica, only black and Spanish. Flushing seems to be all Asian. Jackson Heights is Middle Eastern. Corona/ Elmhurst is Latin. All the cacs is in Astoria and LIC (expensive as hell).

- The ladies :blessed:

- Seems like people not from Queens hate coming here. I told Brooklyn and Harlem people that I live in Queens and they do the :mjpls:

:russ:..



Me either...:patrice:

Was in a barbershop with like 5 of em...ain't understand a gotdamn thing but

"Yea yea"
"Kingston"
"Big fish"

Because it's an adventure to get there the way mass transit is set up, and if you drive, the traffic jams on the bqe or van wyck are not fun at all.

Queens village and Cambria heights feels pretty safe to me, not saying they soft but I don't feel the need to watch myself out there. St. Albans is where it starts to get grimy IMO. Bellerose is literally split between white trash and Indians with money.

But na man nothing about elmont screams queens to me, not even a little bit. Maybe it's cause I grew up in northern queens with more of an urban vibe but na. Elmont, valley stream, franklin square... all that shyt feels different to me.

I'm not from here so you'd know more then me

Maybe I'm judging those Li areas differently comoared to Suffolk which Is rural and looks country

Man there are parts of Queens where you will just get LOST. I mean Manhattan has a like a grid system so you generally know where you're going if you know where North, South, East, and West is. Brooklyn I'm from here so I just know where everything is just cause.

But Queens....you can be in the 70's and then all of a sudden it becomes 140 something street and you like :damn:

I remember me and my boys got lost as fukk in Queens trying to find this Korean BBQ spot, and we were driving in circles for like an hour. Yes we were high but that's besides the point!


Co fukking sign :dead:

Queens got 44th Ave, 44th Street, 44th road, 44th place Lmao i always hated working there

Please educate the young boul @Kliq_Souf

The only place where a bytch can where a bodycon dress in broad daylight and have it be acceptable. :blessed: i remember one time i stood right in front of the chase bank on fordham eating a chico stick and said to myself, i can stand here all day looking at dominican women (thinking about moving back :patrice: damn i miss it there :mjcry: )

But don't be on no tourist shyt out there though :birdman:
Any Puerto Rican/Dominican stronghold is going to ahave aggressive displays of booty meat.

I remember I was visiting a friend in Bushwick by Marcy Projects and I popped into a bodega for some beers. There was a chick in there, 9 at night, summer time, thong bikini, jiggly as she wanted to be :mjcry:

Now for people who don't know NY, Bushwick is is literally in the middle and prob as far from any beach or body of water as anywhere in the city. Only water she was seeign was a bathtub :aicmon:

I cant fukk with em man. They fertile too. Get pregnant from a damn hug and some precum. Who am I kidding, they only fukk with ki flipping Honda Odyssey pushing Enrique Iglesias lookin brehs :mjcry:

Thats one great thing about NYC. Women are in high competition for brehs and the quality is literally world class. If u have ur shyt together in any capacity :eat: :udgoraw:

I mean, it depends where you're going of course but a huge amount of trains come in and out. Even then, if they don't come here the most you probably have to transfer is from one train to another. I don't see how it would be too difficult. Unless you're trying to go to Southside and anywhere east of there, then I can see the problem because there's no trains out there and the bus schedules are trash.

I grew up in a huge 1BR right off Steinway St ...

$600 Rent, I'd be afraid to look up how much Rent would cost now.

There was a time when theres was nothing but cheap hookers and garages in LIC.

Like I tell my DMV brehs buy Condo's in Oxon Hill, Arlington and Alexandria area ... Them shyts are gonna be worth the same price as those Highrises in L.I.C now

Shiiiiiiiiiiiit back in the day no one wanted to be seen in LIC unless they were driving a truck to one of those factories but now its condo city. These yuppie CACs have literally drained the soul from this city, which is why I'm chilling in the Bronx til the wheels fall off.

It kinda makes you wonder. If Cacs are driving up the prices for ya'll up there. Then what is the end game? Where are the native NYers gonna move to? What is the Future of NYC?

Just a whole bunch of 2nd childhood ass yuppies and new blacks :scusthov:
