I love his answer. Here why. That fact that he’s so far removed from the grit of the streets he was still able to recognize that the brother was just protecting his pride. DOPE!
I mean when you deep conscious that’s how you think, that’s why you here ppl say we’re all connected or that’s still my brother etc. You stop seeing a person for what they was or what they did & start to see them for who they are or trying to become no matter if it’s good or bad you’ll see it. And that’ll tell you who your real friends are, I can go on and on but you get my point that it basically teaches you how to grow as a person or being.
When are black people going to stop acting “hard” all the damn time. Ain’t no way I’ll be cool with a guy mean mugging me. The culture needs to change. Black men it’s okay to smile
Such a cutie Jay-Z is! And he absolutely has a beautiful smile 2! I saw a different side of him during this memorable interview! Love ❤️ u, Jay! Stay as intuitive as u are!
@@marcushamilton3410 he wouldn't have done anything except not admit he was scared lmao... Jay was never a tough guy he has people around him to act tough
No cuz his kid wouldn't have known anyways. He didn't want to be disappointed himself. Being a tough guy, imagine asking another man for something, especially for an autograph like praising him. Rejection would be another thing
Ya misunderstood. Jay saying the exact opposite. He saying as hard as the man looked, he put all that tough shit aside and he greeted Jay all soft with a bright smile to guarantee an autograph for his daughter.
I love that Jay is deep enough to understand what was going on with the guy and why he was looking so stressed and focused. He’d been obviously psyching himself out to get the balls to ask for an autograph to please his daughter. Say’s alot about Jay.
In order to be successful as he is. You have to be understanding and visualize yourself in other people's shoes. That's how you can broker deals where your happy and the other side is happy. Jay not only is successful himself. He's helped many others find success as well. He's who 50 cent wishes he was.
@@YTStopCensoringFreedomOfspeech lmao 50 made like 100 mill off vitamin water alone, and now he's a successful producer and actor. He can also go toe to toe with literally ANYBODY album to album.
@@tonytooshort Jay is more successful than 50. Compare Rocawear to gunit clothing. That's a good summary of how both do business. 50 likes to start something but cannot retain quality and long term outlook. Jay on the other hand. When he invests into a project. He is fully committed.
@@YTStopCensoringFreedomOfspeech brother, read carefully and properly. I NEVER said 50 was more successful, or a better investor. My point is you can't scoff at 50 cent as if he's some abject failure. The man is extremely successful and isn't even done with his career. As I said, he's ventured into a career in film making and even in that he's a HUGE success lol. It doesn't matter that Hov is 'more successful'. Arguably NOBODY is more successful then Jay Z in the rap game lmao so that's not really saying much. But of the people you could argue are at the top and closest to him, 50 Cent is DEFINITELY one of them.
@@tonytooshort read my original comment and message carefully. I never stated 50 was not successful. I was pointing out that Jay is much more successful than 50. If 50 had the same ability as Jay when it came to dealing with people. He likely wouldn't have such publicized falling out with his own son. 50 is unstable mentality compared to Jay. JayZ doesn't really brag as much as 50 when it comes to his success. Jay talks to people often like he's on the same level. 50 often needs to remind everyone how he is better than them. He's got a massive ego.

Sometimes we may miss the opportunity to meet some of the nicest people in the world because we are so quick to judge. The sheep may have to put on the wolf's clothing just so he can survive..
Exactly I went out my way to take pictures of batman and spider man for my dam son and the ignorant ass police said I was a child dam dumbass I love to make my kids happy !!! Maybe some are not real parents!

I love how he complimented Kevin's smile...❤️.. some men are insecure and could NEVER compliment another man without saying some shit like "pause" or"no homo"... It's not gay... It's seeing beauty with your eyes and being secure enough with your own sexuality to be able to say out loud that you recognize the beauty in something or someone.🥰❤️❤️
We do all the time, with our boys rather be vulnerable with my boys then show women happy r sad I really am, don’t know when they gonna use that against u…but still no homo
Jay really be on point when he talks about the psychology of men who grew up in rough areas. He breaks it down very well. That part about the man looking aggressive because he's putting his pride on the line to ask for an autograph is spot on. Very sad as well. It's like we're scared to be human.
@Lou Tha Writer that's because he grew up around that. He himself at one point in life had to do the same....posturing. He's on point because he lived it too. "Cough up a lung where I'm from Marcy son ain't nothin' nice." His lyrics reflected his life. Just proof that your past doesn't equal your future nor does it define you.
age has a tendency to mellow a soul. We are lucky to again live in a time when real conversations can be had and recorded with the veteran makers of an artform that was synonymous with violence despite its brilliance. (real dialogue was nonexistent for many decades, only scripted questions by an impersonal interviewer). Hiphop was as much a renaissance as any and now the survivors of it can freely speak about their experiences.
Jay-Z got some of the BEST interviews, you should look some of them joints up. He got a good one with the Breakfast Club....its old but its another good one too. He got more tho. 👌🏽
@@Msd4-13 Aww, really? Tell me, maybe you know. Didn't he start off in a young rap group named nice and smooth?? I've been trying to remember the duo he started in before he went solo?? 🤷🏾♀️
Nah Hov gave the autograph gladly because dude new people just to get that close to Jay in the first place. If Jay acts snobby dude won't hesitate to put hands on Jigga. Before security gets dude off Hov he gonna let off a few punches.
I don't think kevin could see that irl, it might just look like that on the camera for the lighting. I think Kevin was just tryna conect that turn in the story
J were you going to say you were like a little B lol that was a great save but one more thing when you said what's up man was your voice shaky lol 😆 and from that day on you never went out alone again
That used to happen to me all the time, people about got a heart attack when I was approaching, so one time ,I am approached by an old lady, which is very uncommon ,that never happened to me before, and she explained it to me how what people see in me could be very dangerous, because I scare people she said , I honestly didn't knew, but now I know ,and i do my best to avoid problems, I honestly didn't see myself that way, because my wife once mentioned something but she wasn't clear enough, and I just just shrugged it off... I guess she saw that I didn't believed her which I didn't.... That's how we fool ourselves , sometimes thinking that we've the right book cover...
@champion20199 This is exactly who I am at the moment. I am 53, and as far as I remember, I do not have a pleasant resting face. I am happy inside, but unfortunately, people wouldn't know that.
Apparently I don't have the most pleasant of faces when I'm not smiling long story short.....I was at a store and asked the clerk if my daughter could use the bathroom while I check out....she said I'm sorry sir, but you just reminded me not to judge a book by its cover....I was a little intimidated when you walked over but you are one of the most respectful customers I've served. By this time my daughter came over and thanked her....lady said I see where your daughter gets her manners from.....don't judge a book
Just because someone looks really mean, hood, thugged out, or evil. Don't judge until you try to get to know them. Even a little. Some of the meanest and most quiet looking people are some of the sweetest People ever. DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER.
I can relate to J-Z story. I'm from Jamaica and I worked in the tourism industry up until covid disrupted the industry. I take people around the island on a regular basis. & back in the days about 12-13 years ago when Jamaica was a bit unstable, I took some guest through what was considered to be the most volatile community in Jamaica back then... 'went in by accident'... when I got there I had a flat tire. I saw a group of men walking towards us. My heart was in my mouth I knew that they had to be packing & outsiders were not welcome/trusted. They had some of the Savagest face that one had ever seen. The entire community [women & children were all running over for the distribution of the spoils] one guy took command told everyone to "Backup! Backup!" Asked me a few questions, tasked two guys with unpacking every piece of luggage out of the back of the bus to assess the spear underneath the bus, changed the tire, repacked. While he gave me direction. He then called ahead & told us to have a good day. The guest tipped the guys.... All this while the guest had zero knowledge of our near death encounter. I said nothing to the tourguide or the guest. For those who knows TG [T-Gardens] before DuDus, The President was extradited, you'll know what I'm talking about. 😊
You should definitely judge a book by it's cover in certain situations. There's no reason to unreasonably put yourself in danger around people that look suspicious.
We (black men) always keep the persona up… but if you get thru it, I guarantee, we are the best friends you can ever have!! Our situations made us like we are, it’s not really us!!!!
I feel that, homie. But at the same time, we have to find a way to display the fact that it's not really who we are, while not trying to be fake about it. More positivity in a struggling community like our black community.
This is the difference between a lot of Black men and me. I discarded that nonsense years ago. It's all about going different places and see how people live. When you are stuck in the the hood all the time, that's all you know. I don't have no tough persona. Real tough guys I seen never walked around, looking tough
This is very true of white people as well. The difference is most minorities in America will openly tell people the struggles they have had while most in the white communty fake it. It only makes racial relations worse than it needs to be. I respect that minoroties keep it more real.
Unfortunately, similar stories can be told about most black men-and women, that have grown up in the hood. In such an environment, one feels it necessary to walk around with a mug or a hardened expression, so that others won’t regard them as “sweet” or someone who can be “fucked” with. In reality, many of these individuals are actually the nicest and most down-to-earth you’ll ever meet; but you’ll never know because you were scared away by the intimidating glare.
I wear my heart on my sleeve. I wish I could have seen my own face while I was looking at a map, trying to figure out different options of travel from the airport. By the time I paused and looked up and noticed the guy sitting across from me, he looked like he could have busted a gut laughing at me. He was polite, though. It was quite the comedic moment. 😂 Clearly, I cannot hide what I'm feeling.
The lessons Jay tells from his personal life experiences. Great details he’s content with the understanding of this mans dedication to his daughter. I believe he can relate
Personally I love the fact that he’s literally a billionaire but doesn’t look like it. Then there’s rappers out there who aren’t even millionaires who seem to be richer. Looks are deceiving
This been said before. Reason is he has nothing to prove at this point. Look at pictures of him when he started and he was dressed just like all those rappers you’re talking about.
I love Jay! He was one of those rappers at one time. He wore all those iced out chains, watches, earring and bracelets. He has a wife and children and more money than he could spend. He has purpose and he’s full, he doesn’t need all of those material things to fulfill him. He’s fulfilled with love and accomplishments he doesn’t need those things anymore.
Jigga is a really funny guy man !! 😂😂😂😂 the way he tell stories! He remind me of my brother J-sweets so much . I love big bro and never met him . That’s the power of music.
@@lukehood5546 people are so weird about other human beings...I think I get what this dude was trying to say about facial expressions and shit but that's just common sense loving life stuff.. He says it like it's some magical mystical thing.. Straight weirdo
I am loving this matured, personable & wise Jay-Z!!! He is like a big brother that wants to save the world from self destruction. ❤️ The way he compliments Kevin Hart!!!
Sometimes it's not even all that serious. I'm always being asked why I look so angry all the time, because of how I look, but most times, I'm actually in a really good mood. Lol. It's just that I'm always really deep in thought, and my face reflects how intensely I'm immersed in them. When people speak to me, it instantly melts away, and becomes peaceful af. I sometimes have to be conscious of it, and make sure I'm not mean mugging people unintentionally. Lol.
😂😂 Very true… My Hubby has a very intimidating appearance, but he loves hard…. But also don’t piss him off. I remember my mother saying “You weren’t scared to talk to him?!??! He looks so mean!” 😂😂😂 25 years later he’s still my baby 🥰
Yes I get told all the time I always look mad but when ppl speak to me at the end they say baby you gotta fox your face it doesn’t match your personality your so sweet but your face screams I’m mean as hell 😂
That, and ever notice the ppl who do the utmost horrific acts, are usually normal looking everyday types? Look at all the serial killers, they look like PeeWee league coaches, or your local supermarket manager.
Yo music probably the reason that man made it through the hardest of times. Dude would probably catch a slug for you J. They respect you in the trenches
When you do that people begin to view you as weak, honestly it's a bit sad to see people suffering inside scared to be open with their bros. Male pride is a hell of a drug
Jay Z’s emotional intelligence(EQ) is so off the charts🔝. Every time I hear his perspective he is so introspective and tuned it. He just gets people! 😍❤️ #behivedontcomeforme 😂
Man, this almost made me cry: self experience what troubles and tribulations a man goes through to make your kids happy and not let him see the dark side of life
You did the right thing, don’t let your guards down thinking everybody is for you. People are so unpredictable, they will love and hate you at the same time. I can’t believe you’re walking around without security. Thanks for sharing your story.
I just love Jay z he's so funny I can tell and he is a great story teller and very intelligent and I like the way he's real because how many men can actual honestly say they was scared..
DONT 4 GET TO SUBSCRIBE PEACE !!!!
Peace God
Kevin heart... with that fake laugh and Jay h full of shit .. his smile look like Kevin hearts... if you ask he was hitting on him.... gtfoh

@L dm this was back in the day it's been 15 yrs since a nigga like that could get 50 ft from Jay-Z my guy.
He said that shit on TV wats gotten into Hov? Could it be the💰
@@anthonymackey4706 got enough money and far away from the hood he feels he can be vulnerable now
Still wouldnt have stopped security from destroying him lol
Jay really be on point when he talks about the psychology of men who grew up in rough areas. He breaks it down very well. That part about the man looking aggressive because he's putting his pride on the line to ask for an autograph is spot on. Very sad as well. It's like we're scared to be human.
People expect rejection more than acquiesce so they put on a face to protect their pride.
That's what black culture does to people. It's all about fear.
@Lou Tha Writer that's because he grew up around that. He himself at one point in life had to do the same....posturing.
He's on point because he lived it too.
"Cough up a lung where I'm from Marcy son ain't nothin' nice." His lyrics reflected his life. Just proof that your past doesn't equal your future nor does it define you.
I remember sitting in class my senior year and feeling sad at the sudden realization of how far we will go to gain approval
He's a Man that use to be them guy's he speaks from experience 😎
Truth. 99% of altercations are over pride.
Fear almost ruined what is now a beautiful memory. Only if people were really real 😥
Passing judgment is what keeps most of us alive so just remember that

Jay-Z is from Marcy Projects in Brooklyn, he immediately picked up

Anyone from anywhere where growing up isn't exactly ideal would also...

Jay z: thats kl, what's your daughter name.
Dude: Jamal.
Hahahahaha
Only J can make a autograph story sound like a movie😂😂😂
The way Jay is able to understand this man's mannerism is pretty good.
Best comment
that was really sweet for him to say "kinda like your smile, he had the best biggest brightest smile"
It’s a great feeling when your smile and your demeanor totally disarms someone who would’ve sworn you was on some bullshit. 😁
That is why white people smile at us when we're in their present
Very few know about that
True
I disagree. Im scared of smiles. Have you seen the latest Joker movie 🃏
@@Twixy-513 no but you right it's crazy.
“Whats up man” took me out 😂😂
JayZ needs to smile more often -he has a great smile too !
That’s a filter
He’s scared to smile, they called him ugly
Is it true?😕
Right
Billionaire's smile..wat else
Much appreciated to see JayZ so Humble... 💯❤️🙏
I love when people think before reacting. I love when grown respectful people know how to respond in different situations. Thank you, Jay-Z
Jay is such a great storyteller. His choice of words places you on the scene. I see why his lyrics are so captivating.
Bruh
I love this. Never seen jay speak so much on an interview. Seems like a very genuine dude that’s matured throughout his times ❤😂
I was about to say the same thing ♥️😂😂🫶🏽
yall never seen his interviews then
age has a tendency to mellow a soul. We are lucky to again live in a time when real conversations can be had and recorded with the veteran makers of an artform that was synonymous with violence despite its brilliance. (real dialogue was nonexistent for many decades, only scripted questions by an impersonal interviewer). Hiphop was as much a renaissance as any and now the survivors of it can freely speak about their experiences.
Jay-Z got some of the BEST interviews, you should look some of them joints up. He got a good one with the Breakfast Club....its old but its another good one too. He got more tho. 👌🏽
Wow! I'm shocked it's nobody here spreading that illuminati nonsense 😩
JayZ really sound like he is such a nice dude. I'd love to get his autograph 👍🏾
He is. I’ve actually met him a couple times.
@@Msd4-13 Aww, really?
Tell me, maybe you know. Didn't he start off in a young rap group named nice and smooth?? I've been trying to remember the duo he started in before he went solo?? 🤷🏾♀️
jay z always sound like he finna cry😂
Kevin Hart cant stopped laughing always having the time of his life around this guy and Puff.
Hov prolly took a pic with homie , signed an autograph and hired homie 😂
Hired? Foh
@@jfelton3583 chill
I'd be surprised if he gave him the autograph 😆😆
Nah Hov gave the autograph gladly because dude new people just to get that close to Jay in the first place. If Jay acts snobby dude won't hesitate to put hands on Jigga. Before security gets dude off Hov he gonna let off a few punches.
The nigga that asked for the pic was beanie sigel 😂😂💪
JAY IS SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE HE CAN FIND A LIFE LESSON OUT OF THE SMALLEST SHIT 🫡 💪🏾💯
No hes successful bcuz hes a talented rapper
Even bums can do that
Is me or are all of Jay Z story times hilarious?!🤣🤣 The one abt DMX performing before him was the best
That story about DMX was funny! But, he knew X was a beast
Yes, the X story in concert was hilarious. “It’s a hard knock life” lol
"Okay you go" The best!!!
@@jacobsjvj yessssss!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Grrrrrrhhhhhh one two one two🔥
I love this share by HOV…shows his read, connection , and presence to others 🙏🏾
This guy is good on how he analysis situations. Spot on bra
Now I see why B. Loves J, I actually had a change of feelings towards him! He has a Beautiful Smile.
When Jay smiled his teeth glowed and Kevin was like wtf
I seen that too like some kinda hologram or something
😂
I don't think kevin could see that irl, it might just look like that on the camera for the lighting.
I think Kevin was just tryna conect that turn in the story
Yea they did look blunt brown until he smiled and they turned white
J were you going to say you were like a little B lol that was a great save but one more thing when you said what's up man was your voice shaky lol 😆 and from that day on you never went out alone again
When I was growing up in Jamaica back in the 80s, they call a "Buck 50" a "Telephone" 😂
I love the purines of this conversation. It's been nice watching Jay grow....
R.I.P to Michael K. Williams. Whenever I hear about a man with the brightest smile and a scar I think of him. ❤
I honestly think that who he's describing but didn't say it!

Such awareness for Jay to handle it correctly. Composure is EVERYTHING when you're a huge Artist!
Moral of the story, Dont judge a book by its cover
That used to happen to me all the time, people about got a heart attack when I was approaching, so one time ,I am approached by an old lady, which is very uncommon ,that never happened to me before, and she explained it to me how what people see in me could be very dangerous, because I scare people she said , I honestly didn't knew, but now I know ,and i do my best to avoid problems, I honestly didn't see myself that way, because my wife once mentioned something but she wasn't clear enough, and I just just shrugged it off... I guess she saw that I didn't believed her which I didn't.... That's how we fool ourselves , sometimes thinking that we've the right book cover...
@champion20199 This is exactly who I am at the moment. I am 53, and as far as I remember, I do not have a pleasant resting face. I am happy inside, but unfortunately, people wouldn't know that.
Yup, that's the lesson.
One of the most powerful and important quotes in our entire lives.
Apparently I don't have the most pleasant of faces when I'm not smiling long story short.....I was at a store and asked the clerk if my daughter could use the bathroom while I check out....she said I'm sorry sir, but you just reminded me not to judge a book by its cover....I was a little intimidated when you walked over but you are one of the most respectful customers I've served. By this time my daughter came over and thanked her....lady said I see where your daughter gets her manners from.....don't judge a book
Just because someone looks really mean, hood, thugged out, or evil. Don't judge until you try to get to know them. Even a little. Some of the meanest and most quiet looking people are some of the sweetest People ever. DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER.
Im original
I can relate to J-Z story. I'm from Jamaica and I worked in the tourism industry up until covid disrupted the industry. I take people around the island on a regular basis. & back in the days about 12-13 years ago when Jamaica was a bit unstable, I took some guest through what was considered to be the most volatile community in Jamaica back then... 'went in by accident'... when I got there I had a flat tire. I saw a group of men walking towards us. My heart was in my mouth I knew that they had to be packing & outsiders were not welcome/trusted. They had some of the Savagest face that one had ever seen. The entire community [women & children were all running over for the distribution of the spoils] one guy took command told everyone to "Backup! Backup!" Asked me a few questions, tasked two guys with unpacking every piece of luggage out of the back of the bus to assess the spear underneath the bus, changed the tire, repacked. While he gave me direction. He then called ahead & told us to have a good day. The guest tipped the guys.... All this while the guest had zero knowledge of our near death encounter. I said nothing to the tourguide or the guest. For those who knows TG [T-Gardens] before DuDus, The President was extradited, you'll know what I'm talking about. 😊
Facts..... They will still protect what they live too
Fuck outta here, you better judge don't mean you have to act a fool but be on your guard though
You should definitely judge a book by it's cover in certain situations. There's no reason to unreasonably put yourself in danger around people that look suspicious.
We (black men) always keep the persona up… but if you get thru it, I guarantee, we are the best friends you can ever have!! Our situations made us like we are, it’s not really us!!!!
Bro this is so sad , but true 😭💯👊🏾
💯👊🏾
I feel that, homie. But at the same time, we have to find a way to display the fact that it's not really who we are, while not trying to be fake about it. More positivity in a struggling community like our black community.
This is the difference between a lot of Black men and me. I discarded that nonsense years ago. It's all about going different places and see how people live. When you are stuck in the the hood all the time, that's all you know. I don't have no tough persona. Real tough guys I seen never walked around, looking tough
This is very true of white people as well. The difference is most minorities in America will openly tell people the struggles they have had while most in the white communty fake it. It only makes racial relations worse than it needs to be. I respect that minoroties keep it more real.
Jay is extremely conscious yo.. And he can paint that pic.. That's what makes him great..
Really? I had no idea.. You ever try listening to his music from the last 30 years?..

Awwwwww he’s so precious love how he really placed himself in another perspective
Unfortunately, similar stories can be told about most black men-and women, that have grown up in the hood. In such an environment, one feels it necessary to walk around with a mug or a hardened expression, so that others won’t regard them as “sweet” or someone who can be “fucked” with. In reality, many of these individuals are actually the nicest and most down-to-earth you’ll ever meet; but you’ll never know because you were scared away by the intimidating glare.
wise words
You’re so right!
Facts
I wear my heart on my sleeve. I wish I could have seen my own face while I was looking at a map, trying to figure out different options of travel from the airport. By the time I paused and looked up and noticed the guy sitting across from me, he looked like he could have busted a gut laughing at me. He was polite, though. It was quite the comedic moment. 😂 Clearly, I cannot hide what I'm feeling.
th-cam.com/video/feTZJMUVJRc/w-d-xo.html 😆
Jayz be having sum funny stories 😂🤣😂🤣😂
The lessons Jay tells from his personal life experiences. Great details he’s content with the understanding of this mans dedication to his daughter. I believe he can relate
That's a real story on so many levels
Lol that teeth edit is funny af
Personally I love the fact that he’s literally a billionaire but doesn’t look like it. Then there’s rappers out there who aren’t even millionaires who seem to be richer. Looks are deceiving
This been said before. Reason is he has nothing to prove at this point. Look at pictures of him when he started and he was dressed just like all those rappers you’re talking about.
@@mrpelon914 damnnnnn that’s facts! 🤔
@Eyeconic Records I said the same thing.
Most wealthy mfers dont look like they are STUPID rich.. they aint trying to impress nobody. Mfers that aint never had money gotta let it be known.
I love Jay! He was one of those rappers at one time. He wore all those iced out chains, watches, earring and bracelets. He has a wife and children and more money than he could spend. He has purpose and he’s full, he doesn’t need all of those material things to fulfill him. He’s fulfilled with love and accomplishments he doesn’t need those things anymore.
Jigga is a really funny guy man !! 😂😂😂😂 the way he tell stories! He remind me of my brother J-sweets so much . I love big bro and never met him . That’s the power of music.
This is the very first time I’ve seen kindness from this man. WOW! He’s actually a nice looking man when he smiles.
You must not have seen any interviews with Jay
Jay is aging well
Beautiful story, with a deep meaning. Jay always give the best break down of a story to make you think.

The pain hides so much. Be conscious that others are still inside that rough exterior the world built
Realest shit ever heard
Sometimes it's not even all that serious. I'm always being asked why I look so angry all the time, because of how I look, but most times, I'm actually in a really good mood. Lol. It's just that I'm always really deep in thought, and my face reflects how intensely I'm immersed in them. When people speak to me, it instantly melts away, and becomes peaceful af. I sometimes have to be conscious of it, and make sure I'm not mean mugging people unintentionally. Lol.
nah but the “wassup man” got me😭😭
Like his voice cracked or something 😂
Best story tellers in the same room! One raps his and the other makes us laugh with his. Phenomenal moment watching these two.
Often times the scariest lookin folk have the softest centers
😂😂 Very true… My Hubby has a very intimidating appearance, but he loves hard…. But also don’t piss him off. I remember my mother saying “You weren’t scared to talk to him?!??! He looks so mean!” 😂😂😂 25 years later he’s still my baby 🥰
Yes I get told all the time I always look mad but when ppl speak to me at the end they say baby you gotta fox your face it doesn’t match your personality your so sweet but your face screams I’m mean as hell 😂
I look scary af but people still want to be around me for some weird reason.
