    Born and raised in East Harlem! I love my East Harlem, and I love how everything is so accurate! I grew up on 108th and lex! Keep it up my guy, I love how happy you embrace our east Harlem! You should also talk about the racism there was between Puertoricans and Mexicans in the late 80’s - 90’s. I’m Mexican, but the stories my pops would tell me when he immigrated in East Harlem, was insane.
    I love this! Keep it up man 🙏🏽

    I went to school here, MCSM. It’s nice to see the neighborhood again, so many memories. He wasn’t lying about the chop cheese sandwiches, they are the best. I used to get the BLT or chopped cheese from the deli after school almost everyday. Also the dude was on point, he really knows his stuff. Great video!

    Sooo right about Hajji’s…anyone that lived there and came back, had to make that stop to get that chopped cheese…the best. I remember when the bakery first opened up…went in there a few times…but they never compared to the bodega on 109th for my breakfast sandwiches and Hajji’s on 110th…💕💕

    Man I swear i ve been waiting for one of those NY videos forever. I am so always overhyped when I see them. Always those u brought are articulate with their words they stand up for their hoods and so intelligent compare to other states who look goofy and they can't even talk without throwing gang signs and gang terms. Keep it more of NYC boroughs and thank u so much.
