They not bouta start the video off w having the mentality of ohh you can’t make it from living in the hood.. bc that is not true. Ofc they’d prefer if they were more privileged.

Robert Moses devised a scheme to have other individuals move in so the cities won’t lose money. Those individuals that moved in sadly never left. Black snd Hispanic people. I am a New Yorker and still live in NY. I know my history. Look up Robert Moses and who he was and what he did. His name is all over NY. He was the head of many government agencies AT THE SAME TIME that dealt with real estate. Long Island Ny is segregated because of him

the amount of unnecessary violence is so sad tbh. NY projects have a lot of heart but a lot of those hearts been bleedin for years. love the strong camaraderie these few have though. its a blessing to have that in a project.

i’m from CT, my mom raised me in the suburbs and i used to know a guy from “the hood” that acted JUST like this. money, acting tough, sneakers, and drugs was all he cared about. he was so proud of this lifestyle, all of the drama and toxicity that came with it, and even said things like, “i’m never leaving the hood.” lived with his mom and his sister who had 2-4 kids all in the same house. it was sad and i often wished he knew and experienced a better way of life, but i’m so glad i no longer associate myself with him or people like this. growing up, my mom always said “birds of a feather flock together.” people like this will do nothing but drag you down and bring chaos and unnecessary drama into your life. you are who and what you choose to surround yourself with.

I love that y’all are awake to what these areas in the world really are and I’m glad that y’all got out. But for those of us still stuck.....Man God don’t wake us up in the morning for no reason it’s all up to the individual 💯

Wow! This is so sad but eye opening. My mom have moved us to certain areas but nothing like what I have seen in your videos. I see why my mom moved us from the city to the suburbs. City life isn't for the faint of heart, and nothing really strives. It takes strong people to break those generational curses.

You are not growing as a man or woman. You stuck. Her parents look like cool people. They just never grew up 😔. And lil mama headed down the same road. I like where I live now. The burbs. The sticks. No R.I.P shirts. No arguing and fighting every day. No pissy elevators or stairs. Nobody breaking into the whip. No daily police interaction. Nobody getting robbed, Jumped, stabbed, shot killed or Houses broken into. The projects was a stepping stone for struggling families. You grind. You hustle. You get up out the projects. I don’t care what nobody say. The hood has no love for anybody. The streets will take your family, your friends and even you. There’s a whole world out there. We got one life. And I’m so glad I didn’t let the hood swallow me up and leave me stuck. I go home. I see the fam. They still talking the same ish. Who got shot. Who got killed. Who got locked up. Who on the run. Same convo every year when I go visit. I appreciate what the hood taught me. I appreciate my homies from the hood. But I wanted way more in life. Way more. And I wanted way more for my kids. Way more. Bless to everybody out there in the projects. Don’t glorify it. It’s a prison. Cell blocks. The main yard. Recreation Center. Preparation for a smooth transition from the projects to the prison. Hell no. Not me. I saw that from I was young. You will always love where you were born and raised. But be truthful about it too. Just because you were born into poverty don’t mean you have to stay there. Especially when you in your bag. If you from the project and you got 5 bands on you right now. Move. Texas, Georgia, Florida, Colorado, Tennessee. Someplace nobody knows you. I guarantee within 1 year your whole life will change. You will see your vision, hopes and dreams clearer. And you will accomplish things you never would have imagined….

@@kingstone2457 that’s a fact. Life isn’t easy. Sometimes the most difficult thing we can do is walk away from the life we know to the life we don’t. The crazy part is. It’s the easiest and the fastest path to real growth and self preservation. We all have a purpose and a skill. If you good at selling drugs you can be good at running a business. If you good at writing rhymes you can be good at being an author. If you’re good at stealing cars you can be good at running a repo business. If you a wild boy and like that street action you can put in that same work in a private security company, military, U.S Marshall or the Police. We all have god given talents that we can use for our advancement or our demise. It’s just a matter of choice and making that firm decision to make a change. Even if it means walking away and living thousands of miles away from people you know and love. Our fear of change unfortunately is the reason we have so many of the people we grew up with either dead or doing football numbers in the Penitentiary. We all couldn’t wait to jump off the stoop and run the streets. We need to apply that same passion when it’s time to jump off the streets and into manhood. Many of us wasn’t scared of those streets. Even though we knew what was out there. We heard a million and one horror stories but it didn’t phase us. We were going to make a name for ourselves in the hood. By any means necessary. Even if it meant going up against known killers. We did that. So why would we be afraid to recognize that the streets have an expiration date of 21. If you make it past that, it’s time for phase 2. Take all that you’ve learned. All that you’ve earned. And find your true potential. Leave. Leave the hood. Leave the streets. Go be uncomfortable again. Suburbs. Corporate America. Business ownership. Stand alone again. No friends or family. Just you and the world. Nobody in your ear telling you what you can and can’t do. Just your natural street instinct helping you navigate this thing called life. And when you reach that level of success or accomplishments you never thought you would get to. Go back home and show them what happens when you walk away from the streets and everyone you know. Show them proof that there is a life outside of the hood. And it ain’t that hard. You just have to overcome your self doubt and fear. The reason many of us never see success. True success. Is because success lives on the other side of fear. And once you can push past that fear. Everything you ever wanted is sitting right there waiting for you. 💯🍾🥂

And it’s not guaranteed that you’ll get all the funding for school from financial aid or any at all. That’s why so many people drop out because they can’t afford it, or they can get into school but they can’t make the payments consistently. Schooling is really a privilege and congratulations to your husband and yourself.

I grew up in the South Bronx 139th Brook ave.

I grew up in the hood too. I didn't grow up in the P's but I'm sure our income would have qualified us for it. I've since made it out. I've made something of myself and live a very comfortable life. Seeing that mother and daughter just made me so thankful for my parents. They didn't have much in terms of money but they instilled good values and a strong work ethic into my sisters and I. We've all graduated college. We're all homeowners. Two of us are millionaires. We built a house for our parents in the Dominican Republic. We did all of this with very little resources.. Just determination and the understanding that our parents didn't make their sacrifices or work 75 hours a week for nothing. Honestly.. If you're from the hood and you stay long enough to raise your own kids there you've done something wrong.. Failure is often a mindset.

I'm originally from Bed-stuy. I currently live in Harlem. I have a job and a bachelor's degree, working on my masters in public health. I say this to say that the way they are living is a choice.

I don't have a hood mentality, I always knew I did not want to live in a place like that. Everybody I grew up around acted like they had no future, I guess they didn't. I never could relate. Thank you God for delivering me from a sad existence, I will always be grateful. Please watch over the children growing up in the turmoil of concentrated poverty! Amen.

I couldn’t watch long either….this was the worst video I’ve seen from Hood Vlogs but it wasn’t his fault lol

I grew up in the Bronx and still love it when I visit, but I'm glad I got out!

I’m from Harlem and I know these projects. I used to hangout with a couple middle school friends that lived there and I used to always be scared asf going by there after school. I was fine and my friends folks were nice to me but I was still scared. I was a teenager. What a time that was! Seen many fights smh. Very sad. I remember back then thinking I can’t believe people are ok with this.
