Hood Life?
 

How many of y'all have been too a hood? or experienced the ''hood'' way of life?

In other words, how are y'all livin, yo?

I have driven thru it.... But i havent spent much time there, down here its kinda small area and there isnt that much as up in the states.

Your in V.I.....Closest thing to a hood y'all have is a car?

Nah, i'm playin, I'm from Orlando tho, I was born in sacramento...but down here in FLA we don't got shit but tourists and gift shops...oh and cows too.

I don't wanna sounds like I'm trying to be a "gangster".

If you live in Northern California, then you're probly familiar with the cities in the bay area. Or the yay area as some say.

I'm from Vallejo. That's where Mac Dre is from and E-40 is from. It's really ghetto out there. Not a very good city.

I've been through almost every ghetto in the bay area.

fucka hood.......

i'm quite happy living in the peaceful, quiet area i live in rite now...

Yeah I don't want to live in a bad neighborhood. I would rather live in a rich community.

^exactly.

kids got an idea nowdays that its coo to live where its rough
if they knew anything about it theyd change their mind in a heart beat.

my area in seattle is decent
its pretty run down, but the crime rate isnt all that bad

but when i live with my grandpa in arizona
its a whole different story.
casa grande is pretty much straight up desert
with some houses here, and some resteraunts there.
half the families on my block are illegal or are storing someone who is
so as you can imagine, the job options really arent all that promising...
so yea, lots of crime comes round my way in arizona
but seattle? seattle isnt terrible..

i couldnt sleep last night cuz of police helicopters flyin round my house, nuff sed. but werd, tha part of town i live in iz pritty bad fo crime n shit, ppl tried 2 gank my house a couple times n shit n my dad ran out shootin at them n they jetted like a mafucka, lol. police chases, shootouts, all that shits round here. but its not in all tha parts of town, im pritty sho it dont happen much were high dro lives, i have no idea were he live, but frum wut i hear, it dont sound bad. alotta ppl on welfare n shit here, i wuz on welfare fo a looong fuckin time n shit. but id rather live here then in sum nice suburban neighborhood, werd

i dont really live near a "hood" i dont wanna live in a hood my family was ina hood life for a long time..we just started coming up as i was born...shit just started too happen..but then again i lived with my grandma and gramps cuz my mom was a crack addict and shit....she was ghetto as hell...still is...love her to death tho.....but shit wasn't crackin when i lived with her...she had me on social security and shit....and she spent that on groceries cigarettes gas and drugs.....aiii yup....so life is avg. for me i suppose i live in a mobile home right now about a 40,000 dollar house

I used to live in a poor area and before that I lived in the city, shit was mad funny when I used to bring friends home from school and they'd get scared just walking around the streets near my house..

Now a days we moved into a better house, but were still poor as fuck -_-

Hood and gangsta music will go out of fashion eventually....

Remember where you heard it first...

Lol @ nos overating the intellegence of the commercial audience. They actually know when shit's out of style? If they knew that then they would have listened to Dre when he said gangsta rap was dead.

Its the artist's that are getting it wrong, the fans just go with whatever bullshit they put out.......

It WILL die out, believe me.
Theres new groups of emcees getting big now a days with different images. Its already starting to happen. Like all change, it will come slow, but it will happen.

Florida does got a hood..
Shit Carol City=fuckign hood and shit...
i live in the ghetto/black part of north miami....

i live in cincinnati, ohio...one of the poorer cities..no lie i wouldnt even have this computer if my mom wasnt a medical transcriptionist and had to work from home

public schools!!!!

hood is an abbreviation of neighborhood

so a rich mansion in the hamptons can be considered in the hood
its just ignorant people who make it seem like the ghetto is the hood

ghetto and hood are different.

peace

Its slang....... People from different discourses use the same terminology with different meanings.

Thats a simple well known part of the english language. I tell you time and time again compose, your not as smart as you think you are..

but in slang the "hood" is the cleaner version of ghetto...the richer it is we call the burbs

An abbreviation can be considered slang

Please dont respond unless you plan on saying something...dont you have something better to do? I never respond to shit you say and try and make you look dumb but yet you keep doing it to me.

I would of done it to anyone..

You were acting like a smart ass trying to say the thread maker was ignorant for using the word 'hood' to refer to the 'ghetto'. Which was a pathetic statement cause you knew yourself in this discourse the word meant 'ghetto'. Yet all you wanted to do was attempt to look smart by talking shit.

I only give you a hard time cause you need a reality check........

i was born in da da hood and still live in it.....

u suburb faggets wouldn't make it a day out here....

Nigga Please comment.

hood and gangsta music???

rap started in da hood and it will always be hood!

man u don't need to be rich to have a com...dicks mine was £80 2nd hand and the one i'm using at the mo is a work one f.o.c

but anyway i was born & raised in Crawley...lived in Broadfield for about 16 years and the area i was in wasn't too bad in itself but B'field has a reputation for being one of the worst areas in Crawley...particularly near the bottom round the Fennel Crescent area and the Guiness Trust areas past the shops...shits always going on there...the Broadfield Barton (Shops) too is prolly one of the roughest parts too...post office there has been robbed twice in the last 6 months (my mate worked there and had a gun to his head 2nd time) the Stanley Ball (Liquor shop) got robbed and the guy who owned it was stabbed (i know who done that) now that place is closed down now...i don't go there often myself but last time i went to Broadfield shops it looked mad derelect lol...

But where i'm at now is a 2 bed flat in West Green areas aight but right near the night clubs n shit so you always hearin them piss heads after 1:30 lol...advantage though it's close to home but it's deffo better than where i was before.
