    Interesting he grew up with both parents who were trying to steer him
    away from the streets. Not that he’s not successful but it proves my theory. The hood and the projects are nowhere to raise children. His father should’ve have got them up out of there. My parents started in the projects but once they decided to have a family they worked their asses off to move to a better neighborhood.
