- Chile, I have hit my quota for ignorant hood booger activity for the day. Love After Lockup's Monique and Derek are down to the house fighting one another. Instead of sumo wrestling in private, they insist on making us a part of their group chat.
Ja Morant, has literally got to be the most ignorant SOB on the face of the earth. With a guaranteed 200+ million dollars on the line, this idiot gets caught yet AGAIN, brandishing a firearm in a way that is not acceptable per NBA standards. With so much money on the line, why is it that this young man is having such a hard time shaking this hood behavior? Why is he and so many other so drawn to the ghetto? Let's discuss... - Zábava
Baby if I got 200 million, I’m not carrying no damn gun! That’s somebody else job!!!
Amen!
Facts!
Got it! Better words have never been said.
Why not? We all have the right to bare arms.
carrying a gun and flashing one 2 different things …. 200million you be foolish not to
Ja wasn’t a hood kid. He was a privileged private school kid which makes it even stupider
It makes so much more sense. He wants to be hood because he’s NOT
Now that makes sense actually. I have several nephews who “claim Hood” and has never been to one! They’ve been raised suburbs all they life and swear they gang banged 😂😂😂 🤦🏾♀️
But he isn't a private school kid he went to public school.
@@kktheonlyonestephens5097 😂😂😂 liars 🗣️😂😂😂 they love to cap and the hood life is nothing fun
Right then claiming to through crip ain’t even from it smh
I grew up in the hood, and I totally agree. I don’t want to be around ghetto, loud and aggressive people. I rather be “bougie” than “ghetto” any day.
That part!
I choice not too live that way for my child & myself…
Amen
Exactly. Loud and aggressive is so jarring. I just want peace.
I guess folks can be drawn to the danger. It’s not for me, but I understand.
As a community....we desperately need to walk away from the glorification of hood/ghetto culture....it has only hurt us then helped us
It's never helped us at all. It's time to leave the gutter in it's place. It's a mentality some people seem to just have. Just like there's people who live in the hood but don't have that mentality. You'd think they come from the suburban area. It's a whole mindset some want to have. Thru think it's COOL until real shit hit them. Then there's some who think it's cool and real shit hit them and they still with the danger. It's a lifestyle🤷🏽♀️
Unfortunately everyone won’t make it
The hood is the community, necessity is the mother of all invention. The hood is where the culture thrives.
@@prim.an.propher1505 African Americans existed and thrived before "the hood" and will continue to exists and thrive after "the hood" passes out of existence.
Definitely!! All the way!!
Monique and Derek's drama is exhausting 😖. They need to go their separate ways, and just GO SIT DOWN somewhere!

@@Msqueen_d Facts
What they don’t realize is that people are getting tired of them
They’re playing. They are milking that 15 minutes of fame.
@Msqueen_d in the meantime making herself look like a desperate, bullying enabler. What if he flip the script...whether staged or not, and retaliated for her chocking, and totally emasculating him in front of everyone. Their desire for attention and to been seen has gone left and leaves opportunity for one of both of them being hurt. They're a toxic combination.
Let me say, I grew up the hood😊 and is the first person to graduate from 4 year university (the great NCCU) in my family and my friend group…. I thought I could still go out and hang with my friends in hood during my breaks until this guy told me and my cousin we were too good for the hood and his demeanor let me know he was not complimenting us… that was my sign to stay away…. Then years later Nipsey is killed in his hood by someone he knew… im good living two states away on my acre of land with my fiancé and two fur babies!!!
Yep! That’s exactly how it was went I went back home for my uncle’s funeral after being gone almost ten years. My own people wouldn’t even speak to me lol. I brought my ass right back home and will never return for any reason. This golf course my husband has me retired to is just fine.
@@theartistcherrypi6454 ok!!!! I love it!! One time a “friend” told me I thought I was better than them…. I told my older cousin and she said the next time you see them, you let them know, “I don’t think I’m better than you, YOU think I’m better than you!”
@@shonikaschronicles That’s exactly what it is! They have an inferiority complex and know they aren’t on your level. Sometimes people are envious and in secret competition without us realizing it at first.

I don't like aggression. When ur around hood ppl they be snappin over NOTHIN. I find it to be quite unsafe and a product of mental illness
I fully agree. I don't like the hood mentality. The drama and toxicity is disgusting beyond belief
they snap so quick cause they DUMB - when the Hook on phonics shit get to poppin ghetto niggas pull out the Guns - all that elementary struggle is STILL THERE - guns does not erase intellect
THIS is exactly why I keep my distance. Bullets don’t have names.
Mental illness is right! Why else would black boys & men in the hood continue to murder each other over nothing or kill the women and children in their lives because the women aren’t submissive enough or they don’t want to pay child support?
So only ppl in the hood show aggression🤔🤔🤔🤔..
Dineva I was raised the same. Not to look down but to most definitely look away. I don't apologize for not supporting this type of behavior
I know that's right!!!
Facts!
I like that “Not to look Down but to most definitely look away” 🙌🏼
Agree 💯. I was raised the same way and want no parts of that foolishness
CocoBrown5422 Love that ‘Not to look down but to most definitely look away.’ 👏🏽
I am in my 40s. My earliest childhood memories we lived in the projects. My parents worked hard to move me and my 6 siblings out of there, and my mom constantly reminded us that we were not ghetto or hood. Currently me and my siblings are ALL working class suburbia citizens. None of us took on that hood mentality. It's definitely a mindset that's glorified in our community. Which is very unfortunate.
You are so right about everything. She needs to listen to this, and do a mama June and profit off of this while she can. Get gastric bypass surgery and let them document it. Then after the weight loss get a show where she gets to pick a man and find "true love" she Betta capitalize
I was saying this the other day! She better take advantage of this 15 minutes of fame before people get tired of her for being stupid for him!

When it comes to Monique..the internet acts like it doesn’t know that there are beauty standards. Is it fair? No! But it is what it is. We’ve all looked at couples and be like how did he/she end up with him/her. People like to seem politically correct to argue meanwhile be hella judgy. No one with sense thought they were forreal. Although he ain’t all that to me…I agree his class from an attraction standpoint is higher than hers.
“Ghetto, hood” people scare the hell out of me for the very reasons you mentioned. It’s odd behavior and very odd thinking. We lived in the hood when I was in kindergarten and we left when I was in the third grade and never looked back!
Its scary cuz they have nothing to lose. No value no morals. They other people lose their lives to foolishness.
Ja Morant needs to see a therapist/ psychiatrist to find out why he keeps self sabotaging himself to fail.
Chile smh
I completely agree! He really should.
I’ll see him for free.
I think that is something the NBA /NFL should require every player, coaches and any affiliated with the team to go to sessions during the season and off season.
It’s sad to be honest and it’s more common than we want to admit.
You have nothing to APOLOGIZE for. “Ghetto Mentality” SHOULD be looked down on. 💯💯💯
I agree
🎯
Agreed!
bingo!!
💯
You're absolutely right about the ghetto!!!
As a plus size woman, you are most definitely correct about Monique and Derek!!!!😂😂😂
It says a lot that on every episode of “Good Times” the Evans family was trying to find a way to get out of the ghetto. It baffles me that young people aspire to live a hood life, especially when there are people living in the hood that would give their right arm to get out. I see it everyday as a teacher and it’s heartbreaking.
@Stacey24101 my grandmother HATED AND I DI MEAN HATED GOOD TIMES! One reason was what you stated and how it made Blacks folks look bad all the way around!!! I wasn’t allowed to watch it and that’s why I don’t associate with certain types of people with that “Good Times” mindset. Due to racism, poverty, and redlining, my family had to live in low income housing, i.e. the projects and THEY made it out! They instilled in me, it’s not where you start but when you end up! It was designed by systemic racist to keep us segregated from them. And those who had upward mobility to do so move out of segregated neighborhoods just like George Jefferson on The Jefferson’s. What is left is a group of marginalized people who are trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty. Most people have nothing but to have to scrape by, it’s the survival of the fittest! Eat or get eaten!
I'm sorry....but f*** James Evans. I saw him as a loser. Sorry not sorry. I hate that he died but I hated even more that Florida didn't have a $250k life insurance policy on his ass. That way, the minute he passed, she could finally escape the ghetto with her kids.
Thanks for keeping it Funky😊 Derek was locked up for a decade...unrealistic for anyone to think he would be faithful🥴 he needs to run the streets for 2 years minimum!
Facts 💯 he has to sow his Oates
RIGHT! He is wilding out to make up for those 10yrs in prison.
Facts! He was only 20 when he went to prison. He didn't get a chance to be a hoe lol
As a big girl (technically still obese), I can’t be mad at what you said. As much as it may hurt, I learned long ago that it’s true…I am not going to be top pick for the majority because of my size. There are big ladies that can easily pull men. And that’s great for them. But all of us ain’t that lucky. And my belief is that we have to be honest with ourselves. There are so many other things in the world to focus on. If a true relationship comes, great. If not, move on sis.
May I ask, do you work out and try to lose weight? Or is it not a concern? I'm just curious, not being rude or disrespectful.
@@ccpitts770 No problem. I’ve lost over 180 pounds in the last 2 years. Still going. Yes, working out and making better choices have become a priority for me. It still hasn’t changed anything dating-wise.

And his mother is part of the problem. She called him to that mall incident to fight that minor & the altercation at a basketball game.
Since I started watching this channel you ain't never let me down..You always tell the truth in a hilarious way while still gathering folks all the way together! No lies told in this video.
The first 15 years of my life I lived in the hood while my parents was saving to build on their property in a small town in Alabama. Once we moved out the hood I never ever looked back and never want to go back! I don’t look down on the hood but I look away and do not associate myself with that lifestyle.
"Dont look down...but look away" well said!
@@negril7446 that’s a word
I'm with you Funky, i can't stand that ratchet ghetto shit. My family say I act like I'm better than them but just because I came from the projects doesn't mean I have to act like it in my adult life. Call me what you want but I want to live a civilized, law abiding, minding my damn business life.
Exactly
Violence Is Never Okay‼️ Exactly Why I Stay To Myself. I Can't Stand Loud Aggressive People 😐
There is nothing wrong with raising your standards, and separating yourself from elements that do not promote your peace. Once you remove yourself from toxic people; it can minimize your interactions with some dangerous people and situations. Some people are not in the hood anymore either, but the hood are still in those people, and that can compromise your safety and your sanity. You gotta choose the situation that will keep you the safest! #choose wisely

“You can not pay me to be in ghetto, hood environments…” YESSSS! Same as you, my family dynamics looked down on it. So much so that they distanced themselves from extended family. As an adult, I have no desire to occupy space around it. Call me what you want… 🤷🏽♀️
I was raised in the hood and soon as I got out ….. sorry not sorry…. I don’t want no parts! 💪🏾🙌🏾 I just can’t deal with that lifestyle! Not in my everyday life
This new generation is so messed up in the head. Being Young is not an excuse. They lack discipline. At 22 i was working a full time job, I quit college because I wanted the money, and get out of the hood. I saved my money, bought a house, and upgraded to a better house every 3 years. I'm about to retire at the end of the year. (Oh and i was a single mother) I just don't get this hood shit!!!!
Exactly. I did the same too!
That's very impressive!!! I'm proud of you.
So THIS generation is the one who sold crack to their own ppl? Or infiltrated their own neighborhoods with gangs? Or committed car jackings and home invasions? Y’all kill me acting like shit just got bad in “this generation”, thats good you accomplished all you do but the selective amnesia that the hood just became a thing is delusional nonsense
Yep. Im speaking as a millenial. There are some many reasons why I love Gen Zs but they’re deeeeef lacking certain things that the rest of us got. This generatiom/era of kids and young adults are messed up.
Because you come from that you wanted out and did what you had to do to leave that. Ja was never about that life and wants to portray as if he is.
hood environment. I'm so with you. i don't mess with my own family cause they refuse to leave THAT mentality.
I hope this sheds some light on the mindset.
I grew up in a middle class neighborhood. My parents were business owners and very heavy in the church. My dad was super duper strict. My fiery fearless attitude was frowned upon. I was silenced and was raised to smile, look pretty and hide who you are. Well, there were some "hoodish" neighbors who took a liking to me. Whenever I was around them I felt heard and seen and I loved every minute of it. It was like a heavy weight was lifted. One day I was sexually assaulted by some boys at school. They stole my clothes and said I couldn't get it back until I slept with their friends. It was horrible.
I told the kingpins on the block what happened because I was to afraid to tell my dad. They came up to my school during the let out. I don't know what they did, but the next day the boys apologized. They would turn the corner whenever I would walk down the hallway. I,ve been drooling over hood ninjas every since.
Fast forward today. I live in the projects. 5 kids 4 kid fathers ( one has unfortunately been unalived God rest his soul)later, I want out. I had to do a lot of inner work to realize I'm grown now, I can walk in my purpose without praise from hood ninjas. It took me experiencing domestic violence in 2019 to realize I've had enough. It's not funny and I don't mean to make light of it but, I really believe that monster knocked some sense into me.
Oh my goodness. God bless you. I pray you get out, and find new beginnings. 🙏
I get it. Know you can turn it all around. For those kids. I did it. I went from living in homeless shelters for years with my son to making well over 6 Figures a year. And no I don’t own my own business or nothing. I got a regular ole government job. Me and my baby living nice. Planning our trips for the summer now.
@@tammybenaytv4631 absolutely. And congratulations Queen🥰
You are absolutely right about Monique. She’s mad bc he isn’t doing what she wants him to do so now she’s trying to ruin him. Women date men in jail bc they have a level of control over those men.
BOOM!!! Those women want those men in prison, because they figure they have someone they can control. They put money on their commissary and "hold them down" once they get out by buying clothes, etc. so they believe the person should be indebted to them.

And hood life has taught us, it never ends well
Crime has no peace.
U sholl right
You got 2 choices 1.Jail 2.Grave
I’ve accepted the “bougie” label, I can’t be around the hood stuff anymore. I grew up in it, and I’ve worked hard to get out. Some hood people show you they have nothing to lose, and I can’t be around that anymore.
Yes. Always angry, volatile and will put you in dangerous situations. I try not to even drive through.
You shouldn’t look down on anyone so I’m glad you’re working on that. What I’ve learned about life and what makes me non judgmental is that everyone is different and we can’t expect everyone to be like us. Everyone has their own stories and reasons for why they live how they live. Doesn’t make it right or wrong but I just don’t agree. We live how we die and we all have a choice 🤷🏾♀️
Oh yea you clarified that later and basically mentioned the same ❤❤
The part about Derrick going back to prison 😂☠️ 22:19
This is a hard one. I left the hood over 30 years ago, but when I go home to visit, so many of them are still the same. I love my people, but I can't help but feel sad for. Many of them had the same opportunities as me, but loved the hood and low vibration living more. 🙏🏾❤️. I am an educator as well. And yes, being hood is a goal for many young people today, even non Blacks.
Exactly.
Yesss. Then wanna call us bougie. Ummm yes I am 🤭
They are stuck. It’s sad.
I have the same issue w/some family members. They think I'm judgemental and think I'm better than them, and I'm admitting it's true. While they may aspire to it, there is nothing aspirational about accepting mediocrity and struggle
Yea. U go back and see them in that same mindset.
They don't know that they are made for greatness and purpose. Sighs
Derek and Monique need to just walk away from each other, cash in on the lil 15 minutes of fame, and start legit a business.
Right they just doing for TV 📺
I agree, I try to distance myself from people from the “hood “. I feel like they have nothing to lose, and I don’t want to be around folks who don’t have nothing to lose. I do be judging, and I’m working on it.
Coming from someone that’s from the hood, you would do everything you can to get away from it, if you had any sense.
Even though I was from the hood, my mom did not play that. She instilled in us that we were not going to be acting and sound like we’re from there.
I got teased all my life for sound like a “white girl” aka sounding like I’m intelligent and was told that I thought I was better than others.
Looking back now, I really was too good for that life and I don’t ever want to go back.
I appreciate my soft life and everything that comes with it. I finally have nothing to prove to no one but to myself.
Everything you said was on point Funky.
Nessssssa GWORL! This foolishness done destroyed my NERVES!
Funky I’m loving the consistency of content! Thank you for all you do to entertain us! ❤️💪🏾
Dineva, you are preaching. My nephew who was raised in a quiet neighborhood and in a house..living the suburban life. As soon as he was grown, he ran to the hood. As if he's missing out on something. He's in his 30s... still in the hood. Me and his mom have tried to talk to him. Unfortunately, he's not listening and we're waiting for that dreaded phone call . Smh
He fell into the cult of Black male culture.
I have been away from the hood for over 25 years. Now when I talk to my friends back home, I have nothing to really talk about because their conversations are still about who owes them $5, who's messing around, and who just got SH%T etc. When they ask what I've been up to, I found myself only talking about the negative things in my life. Not the good things like graduating from college, getting a promotion or helping my sons with their business ..... that's when I realized I have evolved.
This is SO TRUE! Sad 😔 but true
Yessss!!
Me too 🎯💯💯💯😥
Whheewww this it
Yup mama used to be like “ y’all not bout to be running in & out of my house .. let my cool air out.. y’all either in or or” lol 😂 those were the days
I don’t like ghetto people either. You ain’t wrong. I can’t stand that type of behavior. My mama raised me the same way
I was going to call it a day on CZcams. I'm glad you called us. ❤❤❤
So happy to hear from you so often 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Morning Funky, I caught this video on my way into work and wanted to give a little more insight about the "hood" culture/mentality. John Morant aside, I was one that grew up in the hood but always had aspirations beyond the hood, and I succeeded.
While I was determined to grow beyond my environment, I never looked down on those who were mentally stuck there, though, because I understood.
Many fear beyond what they consider "safety" in an atmosphere of familiarity. Some who make it out feel guilty for doing so and they go around the hood and feel the need to act "regular" when they are not.
And some you can take out of the hood but not the hood out of them. And that is sad, but it's all a state of mind.
It's easy to tell the hood to pull their pants up and not sleep around. People in the hood are so used to being talked "at" they don't know how to receive when someone is talking "to" them in order to speak life to them.
I still have elder family in the hood that have been there almost as long as I have been born. I visit, and I'm not ashamed, and I say hello to those I see in passing and keep it moving...without judgment because I understand.
Don't get it confused, I am not a fan of glorifying hood culture. I came up in the time where neighbors looked out for each other and families. The elders didn't play and we didn't talk back. And as we got older we protected the elders.
Times are much different now and I just know it will take someone who genuinely cares about the people in those neighborhoods and not the money made on the backs of them in death or otherwise before a change can be seen.
My sister and I grew up in middle class family... we struggled financially but were able able to afford opportunities that others did not have or could not. She chose a hood life... while I aspire for lifestyles of the rich and famous. Same family dynamics but totally different lifestyles... it is hard but I learned to throw my hands up and walk away. My only worry now is making sure my niece doesn't normalize the lifestyle of her mother.
I was bullied for almost everything about me... i was bullied for growing in a surban area and not the hood... Also because im black and talked "proper'. Never really hanging out in the hood
Me too & I never understood it
Great prospect… I dated this guy and he told me once in disappointment that he never made it ran in the strip club. he seriously thought that was the Epitome of success. He was embarrassed to share that with me and I looked at him in disgust. I love trap music but me and my statistics degrees Florida state university avoid any life threatening or jail inducing activities
The "hood" mindset is a stronghold. 😢😢
Why is he trying so hard to be accepted by the people who wish they were in his space. ❤

Hey Texas folks!!!
Ghetto culture is seen as the pinnacle of black culture. It seems like anything other than that is not considered true to being black. In particular, living in the suburbs, being focused on education, and being boujee are often seen as the furthest from what it means to have a "black" experience.
@tym9080 You’re absolutely correct! I just commented to someone else that this behavior defines Blackness and it’s rooted in slavery and the Willie Lynch syndrome. It’s field n@gga vs. house n@gga at its finest! We as a people haven’t learned to accept that there are 5011 ways to be Black, based on what part of the country you were raised. What kind of environment, rural vs urban vs suburban. To the whyte pippio, we’re all the same for real!!
Validation seeking can go beyond income and/or fame. Those in the spotlight can be the most insecure. Think about the celebrities who constantly argue with trolls on The Shaderoom. They care about what folks, who they don't even know, think.....
I completely agree with you Q on the hood culture and ghetto projectic behavior! I can't stand it and want it far away from me!
Q, this really hit home for me. I raised my children in upper middle class and my son insist on going and living in the hood in places he wasn't exposed to as a child.
I grew up in the ghetto and my mom taught us, “just because you grew up in the ghetto; the ghetto doesn’t have to live in you!”
You spoke facts what you said about Derek and Monique because if she cannot have him she going to make sure he go back to jail I don't like her. I agree with you about them hitting each other you speak facts and if people don't like it oh well
There should be more things to be known for from being from the "Hood" other than being the toughest person from the hood. Let's normalize being the person from the hood that always helped out the kids in the hood. Why being from the hood automatically equate you being a villain?? We need to change our thinking and way of doing things.
Absolutely!
Spoke 100% facts
because what you speak of is not what's promoted in entertainment by black men.

I’m so happy you back posting consistently ☺️☺️☺️
What I find interesting is that me, a black woman who lives in the suburbs, if I have long nails though I work for the city and have a home, I’m perceived as ghetto. But Kaylie who works at Wendy at 30 with 2 kids and lives in the trailer park has long nails she’s expressing herself. There are parts of “hood” culture that I will forever carry with me like my nails and my attitude, but I definitely outgrew being in risky environments for thrills.

With Derek & Monique, it’s not about aesthetics. Derek would’ve cheated on any woman. It’s plenty of women on that show that’s holding on to their jail bird cheaters

IT IS ABOUT LOOKS! NOBODY WANTS AN OBESE MAN OR WOMAN ITS DISGUSTING
Hell yea, if a ninja that look like.jay z will cheat on Beyonce, then it makes sense, why Derek cheats on Monique. Some ppl just suck and they need perpetual validation from wherever they can get it.
Excellent point made. Thank you for adding value to the conversation.
Yeah, I’m no where near the size of Monique, and I would mop the floor with Derrick. I really hope she’s not letting him whoop up on her.
If you're a woman you wouldn't mop the floor with nothing. Men are naturally stronger. Just because she's bigger than him means absolutely nothing. He's stronger than her.
I had recently reconnected with a childhood friend who was raised with a hood mentality and I instantly knew that I would not be associating with her. We were in traffic court and she came out cursing and carrying on. I did give her my number and sent her a text apologizing for my past behavior regarding the death of her child then blocked her number. Even though she was a good friend I do not feel bad about it whatsoever.
You made the right choice! What happened with her child/past behavior if you don't mind me asking
Absolutely nothing wrong that. Pookie
can hang out with her other friends!!
I'm a little too interested in knowing what happened with that child.
Definitely have to let go of the negative energy, I had to do the same.
Idk … I think it’s scary how we gone bypass how she treated that woman after she lost a child. Seems to me that she did HER the favor by staying away. Also, being spiritual and all. There’s a deep reason why this woman even met her, experienced her and saw her at court the other day … but only time will tell. Something tells me one day she will be a little more understanding about how this woman was/is behaving.
Funky Dineva hats off to you. This is a hard conversation that needs to be addressed in our village. I hate that in 2023 that some people welcome less to be valued in a place that is disadvantageous. When a person has an opportunity to "make it out" please do so and mentor others (IF they heed the knowledge) from the village to have a better life.
Now on to Monique and Derek. I watch this show from day one. I would not toot my lips up to keep addressing issues with a man I say I'm done with in no manner. Funky I agree with you that Monique is vindictive. She knew who she was dealing with from the beginning. Derek has a seem more obligated to her than the lovey dovey she wanted That being said men who are seeing this vindictive behavior with her will not approach her. Strange she did not go for the jugular (DV claims and nothing to play with) until things did not go her way.....again with Derek
I needed your expertise today…OMG!!! You are one of the most honest and hilarious people on here!!!!! I’m shook!!!!❤❤❤
There's nothing wrong with living in the hood or even being poor. Have pride in where you are from. But stop shooting and killing each other. Dang!
@sigthomas3711 Exactly!!! My granny used to say being poor is not a crime!! You can be poor and smart, clean, and treat people with decency and respect! You don’t have to use or abuse people to get ahead!
@@watsonar70 WISDOM!!!! And to go a little further, if you love your good so much, keep it clean. Pick up the trash, put a fresh coat of paint every so often. They only take pride in the shooting and killing not the every day living.
I must say I felt bad for looking down on Ghetto culture my self but I don't feel bad for willing ignorance or the will to want to be glorified by those who wallow in said, ignorance. Dineva I'm humbling myself and working on it too! This was a much needed video
Thank you for coming back to your commentary roots!!❤
Great breakdown on aspirations to live various lifestyles. I too love the water and bougie life, but I won’t pretend that I don’t have a love for the hood too. But that’s likely bc I don’t come from that life and haven’t had to make the best of it to survive. I don’t only associate the hood with the worst (there are families, community, love and a good time in the hood), but I know it’s a privilege to only enjoy the best parts of any lifestyle and involve myself when I want to and not because I have to.
I love that you spun the block on Monique and Derek and you were 100% right about their dynamic!
Nessa girlllll I almost crash trying to pick up the line!!!! I been waiting all day on a video from you! Let’s get into it!😂
Was sitting in traffic and got the notification and jumped on the line Nessa Girl:)
You always crack me all the way up...and when u sing before you get into your topics tickle me pink each time. Keep it up, King! ❤️
Ja Morant is allergic to success😅
Hey funky bunch. Yasss on this Monday
These last few videos have been informative, responsible, and accountable! I love this!
Thank you 🙏🏾our community needs to speak about this more !!
Boffem was dead ass wrong I believe he laid hands on her and we all saw Baby Bop yolking his $5 azz up and making change 😂😂😂😂 w/ her chafing cheeks 🤣💀
NOT BABY BOP☠️☠️☠️☠️
@@antoinettebradley3793 😂😂😂😂😂 yup!! Big purple dinosaur energy
💀🤣💀🤣
Preach Funky!!! You spoke a word about Ja Morant! Monique definitely bought Derrick now he wants to shop in other stores. She has no self esteem or self worth.
And she spent so much time trying to convince his family that she’s the one and better than them.
Lordy, did he call that child, Rasputin from the movie Norbit???😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
U took me out on the Monique & Derek story 😂😂😂😂
Same thing with Aaron Hernandez. He wanted to stay in that hood life and that football fame at the same time. He look where it had him at.
🎯🎯
I can't speak about Monique & Derek because I don't know them. You are so right about the hood mentality. Some Black people think that it's a right to passage to act a certain way because they are "Black". Recently, I had to tell a friend to stop acting out in public while being with me and others. What people don't realize is if something goes down, you will be unscathed; it's the ones that are in your company that will be hurt. I told my friend I would take her ass to court if something happens to me because of her foolishness. Black people, we do not own the right to act "ghetto"; it's not a "Black" thing.
