im cocky as fukk son

We know. It's really disturbing because we all know the real truth. I find what the op is talking about prevalent in New York dudes. You cats lie just to lie. Embellish just for the sake of it, all while renting shat boxes. Gucci underwear and no mortgage. Ranges but living in cages. I don't get it all.

White supremacy has made it where you have to be the magical negro to get to the top. And if not :ufdup: Those shackles are finally coming off, yet the only people perpetuating this is us. :yeshrug: If you not 6"2 190 in a BMW, making 6 figures, you ain't shh. Funny thing is only a handful of people will ever live up to that ideal. Making 50k and living in the suburbs is seen as failure. Being married and faithful to one women is seen as lame. Check out the thread about the billionaire heiress to in and out burger. I think a lot of us are Marxist without even noticing it largely because we were once capital and capitalistic dreams continue to evade us collectively.

:ehh: at work right now so my thoughts are all over the place.

The cousin has a nice gesture....but I think he said his cousin is 35 still living with pipe dreams, slim needs to get into a career at this point.

Valid point...

You never hear a n1gga stand around and brag about how one day he's gonna be a marine biologist or guidance counselor (they just put in the work and accomplish it)

It's always the most frivolous occupation that only .01% of the population ever succeed at...

Exactly. Not realizing that if you have a way of words, gift of gab or what have you....become an attorney lol or if you have a knack for business, get some like minded friends & open a business - franchise, whatever. So many different ways to get good money.

This is true and I put the blame on their upbringing. Realistically you cant tell your kids that they can be and do anything that they want. And the entitlement usually stems from being spoiled as hell and not having to work for shyt. They need to understand reality and that shyt is hard out here in these streets.


Oh, and pride comes into play too much too. If your unemployed talkin about your too good to work a fast food job and you would rather sell drugs or be on unemployment.. :comeon:. SOmetimes you have to suck it up and just do shyt you dont wanna. But our culture tells us and our youth that they dont have to do what they dont want to .

smdh... all of it is a vicious cycle.

True, and a lot of these cats look up to these sports stars & rappers....see the fast money & cars. Not realizing most are broke after their career is done or everything is rented, they getting raped by their label.

They're looking up to the wrong role models. These cats need to immerse themselves in somebody like Thurgood Marshall - a Supreme Court judge, had an airport named after him, made an actual difference for our culture, etc. The Black Excellence thread is full of folks who can become one's role model

What's the point of discussing this?

This just seems like a thread shyt on people with dreams.

The point is, a lot back men aren't living up to their potential because they have unrealistic dreams without any type of fall back. In the end those same guys end up in dead-end careers, unhappy with life, and end up complaining about black women on the coli. It's pathetic really. Everyone can't be a rapper and a basketball player. Why is that the dreams of so many black men given that it will only be the reality for a few?

Why do broke or fat nikkas gotta lower their standards? 7.5s and above always.

I think this thread is not about lowering ya standards but rather to live up to them. You can want a dime all you want no one is shytting on that but the question that follows is what are you bringing to the table to obtain said dime.

One of my mentor told me a goal without a plan is just empty dreams. nikkas might as well be wishing once upon a star.

Out of all the black men you know how many realistically want to be a rapper or athlete? I don't think the problem is that bad.....plus a lot of those people who want to be rappers wouldn't be doing shyt otherwise.

They see me trolling, they hating.....
I think it mainly has to do with black men being the bottom of the barrel in society in terms of wealth and accomplishment (outside of a few athletes and musicians here and there)


When you're down and out you got no choice but to dream and hope. Because that's all you really got. The only other option is to commit that.



Its also the same reason why black people are so religious.

Try having that dude be your roommate.....:snoop: That lasted about one lease... :birdman:
I got this nicca at work who always has to top other people's stories. Like if someone bought new shoes over the weekend, he'll say he got 3 pairs of new shoes over the weekend. And if someone bought a new car, he'll say he's got the upgraded version at home. SMH.

Other people would call him out before because of all the bullshyt, but then he'd get heated and they didnt' want none of that shyt. Why do a lot of niccas have to lie like that yo?
