      He isn’t that young. If you all are so proud of it why does it stay in the top three for violent crime and number one for property crime. Why if I live in Oakland county but work in Detroit should I pay Detroit taxes. Why would I want to live in a place where I have to drive 20 minutes from my house just to find the closest convenience store that is still in a shitty area. More people are shot at on 96 in Detroit than any other freeway in the us. It’s cold, it’s poor, and it’s violent. The sports suck, the shopping sucks, and park at your own risk. But yeah I’m so proud of Detroit man. It’s such a beautiful place.

      There are a million places like East side Detroit or New Orleans. There is only one city in America that is totally unique, all powerful, world reknowned and has literally everything.
      Like it or not.
      And that is New York City.
      I’ve been all over the country And there is really nothing close. Maybe Chicago but not really.
      The most overrated city in the nation is LA. By far. SF was fantastic but no more. Boston is a nice city.
      There are two cities on earth ranked at the alpha top and those are NYC and London.

      @@tristanwaechter4450 I’ve been to the east side of Detroit. I mean no disrespect but it was a half empty, dumpy looking area with small private homes, many abandoned or run down.
      Went to the Eastern market- no big deal. There was literally nothing interesting or appealing about the place. It was abandoned and depressing.
      NYC is ten times the size of Detroit, with hundreds of ethnic neighborhoods of all kinds. With peoples and cultures from all
      Over the world. I’m not talking about Times Square. There is zero comparison between Detroit and NY.
      NY is the capital of the world. Detroit is a bombed out half a city unfortunately .....I know it was once a mighty place.

    🤔 People don't understand that Detroit unlike any other city in the country has a spirit about it that you just can't understand unless you live there, or you know somebody that's from there. it's just a different thing altogether. From Eminem to the Pops from Friday to Aaliyah to the GREAT Malcolm X (🤲) and many many others. Detroit is just a real spiritual deep place.

    I love you Jalen, I love Detroit til death buy I saw too many close friends killed. I saw my best friend killed. I saw somebody shot in the head for the first time on my first day of high school (Cooley High). Moved to Nor Cal in 09 Maybe I'm not a real detroiter anymore but hey, Detroit was named by a white man and 100 years ago it was basically all white. In 200 years who knows what it will be. Sometimes keeping it real equals short lifespan.

    He is right about Detroit! I am from San Francisco. I have seen a special kind of love in Detroit that is hard to see unless you spend some time there and interact with the people. The outside appearance of the decay and criminal activity covers up the inner talent, strength, and beauty of the people in Detroit. I now understand why it became the Mecca of Soul Music with Barry Gordy and Motown!!
