:russ::russ: Would love to here you take on Portsmouth.

Portsmouth boring too lol. I enjoyed the lil ferry ride from Waterside to Portsmouth, we would do that and take our daughters to the children's museum, it's a cool ride...

Other than that, Portsmouth really dingy to me. My boss lived in Portsmouth, going to his house once was the only other time I went thru there. Very depressing looking town lol...

:comeon: What kinda money, getting a degree and being an engineer?

Cause if you’re talking about another type of money, VA Beach aren’t doing that like Norfolk and Portsmouth.

This would only happen in a music video.



Beach hustlers have never came through P-Town like that. Push had a police detail with him when they shot it.


Portsmouth has the reputation for being gunners like Nfk cats. I did gear about cats who had the sack there, but Portsmouth also hella small. The downtown area remind me of Petersburg more than anything, and Petersburg for sure is a slaughterhouse...

Regarding Beach hustlers, it's not about going thru other nikkas cities. Other cats from all over the Seven Five come to The Beach to look for shyt, Beach cats have other dudes in other cities slanging they shyt. Obviously this isnt everybody, we all know there's context here. But Peninsula nikkas was hopping that bridge to grab shyt out VB, Nfk and Chesapeake cats too...

But more than anything the vibe in VB isnt so much about killing nikkas as it is about running the bread up. The other cities have a stronger robbery and kill culture than The Beach...

Damn.. its been 11 years since i've been gone from Norfolk. Is military circle still open?

It's on its deathbed, but yeah it's still open. Used to get my haircut there when I first jumped down there. Its dying a slow and torturous death though...

So many cats on here talkin about my city. Grew up across from military circle hella fights in that mall toughest city in the 757 Norfolk has so many different hoods gotta know how to move whether you in ocean view shoop park the old bowling park all the way to the Norfolk side of Berkeley and diggs park.

The city where our slang is from everywhere so you talk to a Norfolk cat you get some New York some down south and some cali. Home of the hustlers pusha t aka gene thronton based his whole life off of Norfolk and still to this day shows love to the real. The documentary is cool but missing hella hoods but I can respect what they were trying to put together .

The food and the women are super slept on but the police presence is something you wouldn't believe. One of two only commonwealths the area is far from country but lacks the big city appeal because everything is based around the military. So much I could say but that's for another time. Booker T

I moved to Norfolk in 2000. Got out the military in 2003 and just lived in the hood Lens Ave (Shoop Park ) down the street from DJs music off Tidewater. Best years of my life, house full of down south hustlers. I got my wings in Norfolk. So many cool women in that hood. We lived near that tiny giant liquor store, we would pull chicks from the porch that were walking to the store.

People always talked about Bad news, but Norfolk was the realist. Saw a barber that worked on that shop on Lafayette blvd get popped on Lens Ave, 30 secs after walking passed and speaking to us. Saw the shooter fleeing too. Just crazy. Norfolk was no joke back. But a lot of fun.

Anybody remembers, Broadways, Upscales, Gary's, Picassos, the Alley? So much fun back then.

I ended up moving to DC in 2004, never loved dc like I did the 7 cities. I use to come back every weekend. I still regret leaving to chase that money.
shyt Broadway used to have cars parked all down that one street back down to damn near Military Highway LOL! The Alley sounds very familiar.
Taking it a little further back... can you remember when there was a movie theater in Janaf Plaza...lol! Anyone remember that and you real throwback "Nawfuk" no doubt. Also..Indian River skating rink used to be that fly shyt...they used to sell pickle juice to drink in there on some real hood shyt lol this shyt is way back though...no doubt...and I will say this... Dream Boyz, Ebony Playboyz, etc.... if ya know then ya know lol

If you’re talking about suburban plugs, I guess. :manny:

Portsmouth streets are pretty much like Norfolk streets. Back in the 90’s it was way worse. Ida Barbour was probably the most notorious hood in the city, but pretty much everything downtown (what we called downtown anyway), Prentis Park, Southside, Brighton, all the projects, basically the whole inner core of the city was grimy and full of open air drug markets...some other places too.

Portsmouth is a smack city too. It’s always been about the H since way before white people declared an opioid epidemic. I didn’t even know other cities didn’t have heroin like that lol. I thought it was sold on corners in every city until I moved out of state in the early 00’s and cats were like “nah all we got is crack here.”

You can call them suburban plugs if you want, I don't have an issue with that. Alota money getters out that supposed suburb though ..

How is Richmond?

Better city than any city in the Seven Five for sure. Depends what you asking bout tho, cause Seven Five got it's good qualities...
