I’m a white dude from the south and the hood at the same time. I’ve got the “where you get this guy from!!” From black people when a black friend of mine introduced me to other black people. Always made me feel good I won’t lie lol
@@VelvetAura true man true I remember freestyling with my boys back in the day and my buddy’s mom was renting out a room to this black guy. He was standing by the door as I spit my verse. I rapped about the night my friends and I stole a school bus and took it for a joyride (true story) and the black guy opened the door when I was done and looks right at me like “yo…that was dope”. I couldn’t have been more proud of myself 😂
Lmfao bruh the hood language is so real. I live in Buffalo ny, a predominantly black city but grew up near Pittsburgh. Was working one day and someone pissed me off and I remember being like “nah, they got me fucked up, deadass, idk who the fuck they think they talking to like that”… and i swear to god the older black guy just looked at me for a minute then said “ohhh, I got you, you be that type of white person that season their chicken huh” shit had me dying lmfao…
I don't know if Buffalo is different from NYC but none of that sounds particularly deep hood to me. It is slangy but kids from all kinds of backgrounds have been talking like that for decades. It depends on what register you like to talk in; some kids will use less slang than that but no kid of any race would think that way of talking is particularly indicative of hood language.
I’m a white guy who grew up predominantly around black people but since leaving the hood I’ve pretty much completely lost my accent. It still comes out sometimes though when I’m angry and even catches me off guard when I do it 😂
As a white dude from the hood, these videos are fucking priceless. The crisp dap, the walking with ya chest up, the ease of utilizing the local dialect. You seem like a genuinely funny dude and I bet your friend group is a riot. I've been trying to sort out which hood you're from just based on the videos but i haven't gotten it yet. *thanks for the likes, 275+ in less than a day is wild to me*
@@MSB-Benchmarking Thanks cuz. I would recommend anyone do the same, even if you aren't doing "formal" education. The simple act of scholarly self improvement will help anyone be the best version of themselves. I wouldn't recommend paying a college unless you want to go into a field where the certifications are 100% needed. Like Healthcare, AI/IT, or law practice. Everything else can be achieved without paying some group of rich people for a piece of paper saying you can do it.

As a white dude who grew up in the burbs and then went to an inner city high school I’d also say that white guys from the hood basically have a sense of ease, confidence and comfort around black people from the hood, or really anyone from the hood.

As a white guy from West Oakland I definitely agree with the walk with your chin up for sure. I'd even add always knowing what's around you. Making confident eye contact that lets others know you see them prevents trouble 99% of the time. The solid dap up is pretty hilariously accurate too. For me that's when hood dudes chuckle and make some sort of acknowledgment. Much love to my melanin brothers, but other than that I'm white and don't try to be somebody I'm not.

I’m a white guy who grew up in a fucked up city where nice neighborhoods and the hood are next to each other. I played soccer an played in the street w people from the hood throughout my childhood.

My go to method for greetin someone is dappin em up, I can put on drippy fits if it’s a day where I’m actually carin about my appearance, I walk with purpose, etc. But I also went to nice schools and shit so I got a weird mix of characteristics too, feels like I’m fakin both sometimes
@@gary4014 What is that city? lol. I always wonder when people claim these areas but never give a city. I understand what you’re saying kinda. Growing up experiencing both worlds does give you a unique mix of characteristics. I just don’t understand why you feel like you’re faking both sometimes though? You know how to walk on both sides.
@@domi69ifyim assuming its because when you’re in one place thats different from the other, you tend to think about that other place more often. like, for me, i grew up in philly and it wasn’t all bad, but we struggled a bit especially during the housing crisis back in 2008. i was too young to remember it fully so i wasn’t all too aware about it, but it wasn’t too bad during my middle school years. now, in highschool, me and my family ended up near homeless in ga after we moved there a couple months in. we were jumping from extended stay to extended stay in really bad parts of the neighborhood. it changes how you view your surroundings. sometimes, you cant take your mind off of where you used to be, good or bad, and you feel bad for reminiscing on it, even though you both learned and lost a lot. it’s like imposter syndrome; when you’re in a good place, you feel like all the bad that’s happened to you didn’t really happen and that you were faking your struggles, and vice versa. thats just my take on it tho.
@@overheavens That’s a great way to put it and I understand the feelings you’re explaining. There’s a dichotomy that has been imprinted into your being that you become increasingly aware of the farther away you get from the other.

My dude that's right. It's been class war for a minute. Get poor white folk distracted on some racist garbage. LBJ was right when he said this: If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.
Man it’s the common theme. There wasn’t but one white family in my hood, my own. But it didn’t matter. We are the same foods. Listened to the same music. Went to the same church. Asked to borrow the same stuff. Same in the trailer parks too. Just a different flavor.
I’ll give it a try. First sign is that the white dude isn’t from the hood. The stereotypical white guy voice. “Goodness! It appears that I’m in the hood, hopefully no harm befalls me.” Second sign. The white dude is frantically dialing other white dudes on what to do about being in the hood. Third sign is him actually wondering into a home made rap video, while saying “What’s up homey” in a high pitched shaky voice.
@@octosalt2209 IF so, not every ten seconds, once would be enough. Another video would appear on 5 words not to say in the hood. It would show some very stupid white dude laid out because he talked ignorance.
It's universal. Even growing up where I have, I always walk with a purpose and no one ever bothers me. Even had an embarassing case where I was talking to some friends in the school hall and even though I started it, my friends got in trouble and the teacher just told me to carry on cause "He never gets in trouble". I felt bad, but when I caught up to them later, they just laughed and said "Yeah the teach hates us. Don't let us get you in trouble, you're a good kid". Gosh I had a good high school, but it's everywhere, man.
As an adult who no longer lives in the hood, it took me years to realize that where I live now the reason no one will look at me or smile or anything like that is my walk and resting mean mug. Hey, it works too good sometimes.
I think I could fake it enough in THE HOOD that people would think that I'm trying to be friendly and might polite rob me instead of aggressive rob me.
Hehe the real goal is to never make yourself look like a target. Being "Real" is the number one rule in any hood. E.g. If you don't want trouble, don't look like you're itching to fight. If you don't wanna get robbed, don't walk around with 24 carats around your neck like you're Mansa Musa. 9 times out of 10 problems happen cause people feel they have to prove themselves.
You don't want to appear lost, friendly, or anything other than being about your business. Rich celebrities have been robbed in the hood, even the hood they grew up in - if you don't have a reason to be there, then don't...
@@adb888 Unless you a Hood White Boi, like my ass, you keep ur ass out of da hood if u ain't from there. Walk wit a purpose, keep your head high n watch your surroundings if your not from that set, or area, so you don't get slid up on, n b a lick.
That walk with purpose shot will help you when you get out the hood as well. Always dress and walk with purpose. You don’t know who’s watching. Not all bad either- You may get an opportunity from carrying yourself well.
That N word part is straight facts. I was raised in the hood and it's apart of my vocabulary but I have respect and understand you cant go around talking any kinda way to any kinda person. Much love my brotha
Amen. Being black myself raised mostly in white society, I never say it myself. My brother does occasionally but he's kind of more "street" than me. We both know what it means. I don't mind hearing it from people on the streets cause I know they're saying it out of self pity. Where I can't stand it is when some white nerd online thinks he's big and bad saying it like "What you gonna do about it? The police will protect me so it's a free country!" like the person going to jail will somehow fix thier jaw being re-arranged. Not even about racism anymore, just an uppity kid being WAY too comfortable in a world that has to remind him these laws and that internet cable are the only thing preventing us from seeing how to reconfigure his skeleton.
Broooo @MarioMastar omg don't even get me started with the keyboard warriors out here deliberately being ignorant in the hopes of triggering ppl on purpose. I be wanting to bust out they teeth more than anyone fr fr. Like I'm THAT white dude, that's just waiting for a reason to pop off hahahaa
I think this ^^^ all right here is the essence of it. *(1)* Respect (for each other) & Freedom. *(2)* We all focus & bicker on this-& No One knows what TheFed is!
craziest part is the walk, even when we moveout the hood and everything the walk has become part of our nature and its impossible to change it I’ve gotten compliments for how I walk and never understood wtf that meant til recently
You nailed it. As a white guy that spent a few years in the hood and the rest of my childhood in “predominantly black” areas, I always walked with purpose, was one of the first to get a pair Nike(I’m old af). I was the only white guy on the local basketball court and said the N word but we used the word differently and I never said it at someone and only in the 1970’s. When the 80’s started that word was removed from the white dictionary. 😂
The blackest white guy in my high school could use the n-word in the eighties, but as you note - he used it differently. You could tell he used it as a sign of respect and brotherhood, not as an insult or even anything close to that. I suspect that it hasn't been removed from the dictionary, but as a white person gets older, the ability to use the word diminishes.
I agree with you, as a white guy who grew up in the hood. Except on the drip thing. I was always taught to dress real casual. Being driped out is a good way to get robbed, where im from. Other than that awesome video bro.
White professionals have a secret hand shake that get’s you into the club. It involves standing with confident posture, repeating the person’s name when meeting them, looking the person in the eyes neither over glasses nor down the nose, providing a smile of reassurance, and listening intently to what they have to say. It is similar but very different to dapping.
It may have changed in the last couple decades, but that absolutely was not how dap was done around here when I was younger. Presumably the specific way varies a bit from region to region. Or at least none of my friends did it like that. Folks round here do no like being touched, and it doesn't seem to much matter what part of the city or what class you are, folks don't like much more than hands to be touched if you aren't a close friend or relative. I'm definitely not hood, but I absolutely go around like I've got no Fs to give, because I mostly don't.
lmao that walking with a sense of purpose bit got me haha I'm from Gaziosmanpaşa, İstanbul (also a hood, but a different kind of one) and showing a sense of weakness while walking can get you a lotta trouble. Even when I am a tourist abroad I walk like as if I own and breathe that place, can't show strangers I know no shit about my surroundings.
i grew up in south central and the walking thing is so true. after a few years, the hood gets to know your family and know you live there, struggling with the rest. but when you first get spotted and you white out there, they look sideways for a sec. you can almost see it in their faces wondering "the fuck is this white kid doing around here". whence i learnt walkin with a purpose saves me from interactions i dont want to be a part of, it was smooth sailing from there. unfortunatley walking with a purpose dont remove the white jokes in school and in stores LMAO
This reminds me of my brother who started to play football at Prairie View A&M. The college used to be an all black college and then it was open to everyone. One day I went to see him play ball at a match and after the game we went to visit my brother at his dorm and walking through campus and only seeing black folks everywhere made me feel out of place..haha.. But after seeing my brother and his roommates, they were pretty cool and pretty chill. Oh so just a little background info, I was adopted into white family so that's why this video reminded me of my brother playing football for basically a black college.
Moving to Columbia Drive off I-20 in Decatur GA for high school was the best thing that I ever happened to me, as a white kid with Jewish roots in the deep south. I found more acceptance, love, and authenticity in the Hood than I ever saw up in Buckhead, and being exposed to experiences that I never would have seen otherwise has inspired me to be become a minister and a chaplain. I'll never forget going to churches like Big Bethel A.M.E., Ebenezer Baptist, and Holy Cross Episcopal, and I heard the Gospel truly preached for the first time there. I still wear my ATL hat on tilt walking around a hospital in Wisconsin, with a giant crucifix around my neck, which was given to me by a Benedictine monk who's a brother from the south side of Chicago. I definitely picked up on some damn fine drip with that southern swank

Hey odawg, I'm from germany and I'm glad I found your content We don't have a hood in my country but it's so fun learning from you and your people! Tbh your channel always brightens my day in trying times, So I just wanted to drop this comment, keep going 😁
Im from malaysia. When i was a kid in the 90s i watched way too many black movies and rap songs. Which eventually i became obsessed with the black culture. It subconciously became my identity, the way i walk and talk as if im from the hood.
Another classic video. I’m not gonna lie. I’m a middle class Hispanic white dude and I find myself doing a lot of these things. The walk, the drip, not so much the lingo cause I have to act my age (but some lingo), and the strong dap. Time to start your own curriculum at a local college or university ODAWG.
The dap has such a profound origin story, I didn’t realize what it signified until now. As a 60+ white woman from TX, I appreciate the window into your world. May you reach a million soon, your channel is a lot of fun and informative.
Love that the subtitles had things like "youhearme" as one word, the nuanced detail is just right. I've been out THE HOOD a long time and don't usually look/seem like that's where I'm from, but there's a certain comfort zone that makes my inner voice code switch like I'm with family and man your delivery got me in my roots (n I think that familiar beep really got the mood right too 😅).

You don't want to appear lost, friendly, or anything other than being about your business. Rich celebrities have been robbed in the hood, even the hood they grew up in - if you don't have a reason to be there, then don't...
@@adb888 Unless you a Hood White Boi, like my ass, you keep ur ass out of da hood if u ain't from there. Walk wit a purpose, keep your head high n watch your surroundings if your not from that set, or area, so you don't get slid up on, n b a lick.
cannot be faked. Had to have lived around it for a few years.
What’s your PO Box? I’m hoping to send you batteries for your fire alarm.
💀💀💀
What fire alarm? 😂
@@giantmutantbug the one thats chirping every 30 seconds of the video
@@augustine6683 I don't hear it
I thought that was mine, 😂
02:45 Daaaang that was so crisp he had to play that 3 times!
The walk with purpose is something I learned as a kid 😂 that way less likely to hear "Ayo kid! Come here real quick." 🤣
For what it's worth, as an old white woman I have to say this video was very enlightening. You have a very good deliverance.
Lol su
Deliverance?
@@AmB39it’s a real word, boo
@@AmB39 Like, the way they present and edit the video and stuff
@@standard-carrier-wo-chan wow
That walk with purpose shot will help you when you get out the hood as well.
Always dress and walk with purpose. You don’t know who’s watching. Not all bad either- You may get an opportunity from carrying yourself well.
That N word part is straight facts. I was raised in the hood and it's apart of my vocabulary but I have respect and understand you cant go around talking any kinda way to any kinda person. Much love my brotha
Amen. Being black myself raised mostly in white society, I never say it myself. My brother does occasionally but he's kind of more "street" than me. We both know what it means. I don't mind hearing it from people on the streets cause I know they're saying it out of self pity. Where I can't stand it is when some white nerd online thinks he's big and bad saying it like "What you gonna do about it? The police will protect me so it's a free country!" like the person going to jail will somehow fix thier jaw being re-arranged. Not even about racism anymore, just an uppity kid being WAY too comfortable in a world that has to remind him these laws and that internet cable are the only thing preventing us from seeing how to reconfigure his skeleton.
Broooo @MarioMastar omg don't even get me started with the keyboard warriors out here deliberately being ignorant in the hopes of triggering ppl on purpose. I be wanting to bust out they teeth more than anyone fr fr. Like I'm THAT white dude, that's just waiting for a reason to pop off hahahaa
@@MarioMastarcry about it bro.
I think this ^^^ all right here is the essence of it. *(1)* Respect (for each other) & Freedom.
*(2)* We all focus & bicker on this-& No One knows what TheFed is!
PIs Chk (1) *”M0reDædIyThanWr”* (in my BIkAmrResrce Iist-oIder, but shckng)
(2) *”CntryofEnsIvmt”* & (3) *”The$Mstrs”* are all worth chkng.
The dap was kind a crispy tho. Ya, white boi certified. 😂✊🏽
The way he sideways walked through that damn door 😂😂😂😂 also daHOOD!!! 😂😂😂
Bro this videos are entertaining af, im wishing for the whole cast of this videos to be succesful 🍾
This hood audio comes complete with the smoke detector beeping in the background. Certified A1
Did you add the stereotypical smoke alarm beeps?!😂😂😂😂
Nah, them shits organic.
Bruh had me thinking it was my smoke alarm lmao
The smoke detector beep throughout the video really sold it
Da Hood! Thanks for the videos man. Keep em coming 😂
My man. Change the smoke detector battery. God bless.
Great video
I love your channel!! Sincerely, a middle-aged white lady. 🤗🤗🤗
If he starts rapping about spaghetti, he’s from the hood.
BRO REPLACE THAT SMOKE DETECTOR BATTERY
You gotta change that battery dog. Shit be beepin'.
craziest part is the walk, even when we moveout the hood and everything the walk has become part of our nature and its impossible to change it I’ve gotten compliments for how I walk and never understood wtf that meant til recently
Its that drive. That power. That confidence. As in thats the energy it gives up, people enjoy that.
It’s not the prayer hands, it’s the clouds 🤣🤣🤣 not only he from the hood, those jail tattoos. Bro got half the Old Testament on him. 🤣🤣
You nailed it. As a white guy that spent a few years in the hood and the rest of my childhood in “predominantly black” areas, I always walked with purpose, was one of the first to get a pair Nike(I’m old af). I was the only white guy on the local basketball court and said the N word but we used the word differently and I never said it at someone and only in the 1970’s. When the 80’s started that word was removed from the white dictionary. 😂
Lmao I love it. "Removed from the white dictionary".
The blackest white guy in my high school could use the n-word in the eighties, but as you note - he used it differently. You could tell he used it as a sign of respect and brotherhood, not as an insult or even anything close to that. I suspect that it hasn't been removed from the dictionary, but as a white person gets older, the ability to use the word diminishes.
😂
I agree with you, as a white guy who grew up in the hood. Except on the drip thing. I was always taught to dress real casual. Being driped out is a good way to get robbed, where im from. Other than that awesome video bro.
The smoke alarm beeps is wild son! 😂😂😂
Love learning more about
the hood!
I remeber I dapped up a coworker of mine and did the snap afterwards. He gave me that look and said "who taught you that" 😂😂 i learned it in
The hood!
You mean in the HOOD...
White professionals have a secret hand shake that get’s you into the club. It involves standing with confident posture, repeating the person’s name when meeting them, looking the person in the eyes neither over glasses nor down the nose, providing a smile of reassurance, and listening intently to what they have to say. It is similar but very different to dapping.
It may have changed in the last couple decades, but that absolutely was not how dap was done around here when I was younger. Presumably the specific way varies a bit from region to region. Or at least none of my friends did it like that. Folks round here do no like being touched, and it doesn't seem to much matter what part of the city or what class you are, folks don't like much more than hands to be touched if you aren't a close friend or relative.
I'm definitely not hood, but I absolutely go around like I've got no Fs to give, because I mostly don't.
Bro is the most educational man on this platform
Wait, you could show bloopers in the hood!? We got everything round here. 😮
lmao that walking with a sense of purpose bit got me haha I'm from Gaziosmanpaşa, İstanbul (also a hood, but a different kind of one) and showing a sense of weakness while walking can get you a lotta trouble. Even when I am a tourist abroad I walk like as if I own and breathe that place, can't show strangers I know no shit about my surroundings.
That was so cool 😎
Great video, I’m learning a lot from your channel. Thanks for sharing all the hood knowledge.
Love from Barcelona!
i grew up in south central and the walking thing is so true. after a few years, the hood gets to know your family and know you live there, struggling with the rest. but when you first get spotted and you white out there, they look sideways for a sec. you can almost see it in their faces wondering "the fuck is this white kid doing around here". whence i learnt walkin with a purpose saves me from interactions i dont want to be a part of, it was smooth sailing from there. unfortunatley walking with a purpose dont remove the white jokes in school and in stores LMAO
As in south central Los Angeles? What school you went to? I went to Jeff high on Hooper and E 41st Street.
We hitting the 1 mil threshold with this one!
3:34 why'd he say "OUT" like that bro🤣
Informative and humerous, you done good fine sir!
This reminds me of my brother who started to play football at Prairie View A&M. The college used to be an all black college and then it was open to everyone. One day I went to see him play ball at a match and after the game we went to visit my brother at his dorm and walking through campus and only seeing black folks everywhere made me feel out of place..haha.. But after seeing my brother and his roommates, they were pretty cool and pretty chill. Oh so just a little background info, I was adopted into white family so that's why this video reminded me of my brother playing football for basically a black college.
It was always open to everyone. White schools were closed to Black people.
Real ones watched the full video already 🥱
Brother’s the professional hoodologist
Moving to Columbia Drive off I-20 in Decatur GA for high school was the best thing that I ever happened to me, as a white kid with Jewish roots in the deep south. I found more acceptance, love, and authenticity in the Hood than I ever saw up in Buckhead, and being exposed to experiences that I never would have seen otherwise has inspired me to be become a minister and a chaplain. I'll never forget going to churches like Big Bethel A.M.E., Ebenezer Baptist, and Holy Cross Episcopal, and I heard the Gospel truly preached for the first time there.
I still wear my ATL hat on tilt walking around a hospital in Wisconsin, with a giant crucifix around my neck, which was given to me by a Benedictine monk who's a brother from the south side of Chicago. I definitely picked up on some damn fine drip with that southern swank
You said Columbia Dr, that's all I needed to know!
You know a dudes from the hood when you can hear his smoke detector in the video commentary 😂
Every time I notice the smoke alarm beeping it cracks me the hell up from one of your other videos. Obviously I know you can't hear it lmaoooo
The hood hits different when your family is foreigners
Calling it, this will become the most studied ODAWG video
This man a bachelor's in hood studies. All of these videos cover different aspects of the hood, from the people, to the activities, the dos and do nots, etc.
Oh i knew this man was legit hood when i heard that smoke alarm chirp
Suburban white proper have fire alarms either batteries too 😂😂😂
dude had a double smoke detector beep i guess you forgot to fix that when editing the sound in
Mean he is from the HOOoooOD
Hey odawg, I'm from germany and I'm glad I found your content
We don't have a hood in my country but it's so fun learning from you and your people! Tbh your channel always brightens my day in trying times,
So I just wanted to drop this comment, keep going 😁
No hoods, but how bout dem Ghettos? 😅😅😅
Sorry had to
Nah, we definitely got some of those. Might not be the exact same, but some similarities are there
“No hoods”? So, everyone lives in a safe affluent community? Damn. I need to move to Germany
Of course Germany has hoods. Ours just aren't predominantly black but arabic.
Bro that was germany of the past lol
@@dragorocky
Now muslims have taken over
I went into a corner store in the hood asked for loosies for my friend and the Spanish dude behind the counter immediately thought I was a cop 😭😂
I haven't seen those around here in years. Smoking is so expensive and splitting up the pack just makes it more expensive.
You know how I know you're from the Hood? The Smoke Alarm being on low battery lmao.
"now with that being said-"
[smoke alarm beep]
Love that smoke alarm, gives more personality to these!
Im from malaysia. When i was a kid in the 90s i watched way too many black movies and rap songs. Which eventually i became obsessed with the black culture. It subconciously became my identity, the way i walk and talk as if im from the hood.
Another classic video. I’m not gonna lie. I’m a middle class Hispanic white dude and I find myself doing a lot of these things. The walk, the drip, not so much the lingo cause I have to act my age (but some lingo), and the strong dap. Time to start your own curriculum at a local college or university ODAWG.
I really got to know about the hood! Thank you!
Yeah the chirping in the background is a great example of the hood also
THE HOOD! gets me everytime
Lmfao😂
bro did him zasty at 1:34
0:57 no way i heard the smoke detector beep
That snort was everything!
Bro graduated from hoodiology
The dap has such a profound origin story, I didn’t realize what it signified until now. As a 60+ white woman from TX, I appreciate the window into your world. May you reach a million soon, your channel is a lot of fun and informative.
The only hood they from is from the gated hood 🗣🔥
Great storytelling in THE HOOD!
Shoutout to the smoke detector. It really touched the video together.
Time to change your smoke alarm,my guy.
Dude, you’re a cultural icon, introducing THE HOOD to Mainstream America. Keep up the good work … !!!
i was interested until i heard the smoke alarm
Thats how you know the guy is legit.
And from THE HOOD!@@alexmackelly3222
Love that the subtitles had things like "youhearme" as one word, the nuanced detail is just right. I've been out THE HOOD a long time and don't usually look/seem like that's where I'm from, but there's a certain comfort zone that makes my inner voice code switch like I'm with family and man your delivery got me in my roots (n I think that familiar beep really got the mood right too 😅). Thanks; feels welcoming round here. Subscribed.
Homey... I can hear your fire alarm batteries beeping!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ngl.... whenever he says THE HOOD...am dying 😂😂😂😂 literally
1:21 What drip? That's a generic hoodie and sweatpants.
@SuperBozz simple adjustments are not tailor made
It is drip though, he looks good in it
I'm a 64 yr old white guy that grew up in "the hood." I miss the days when we actually got along. Before social media had to go a F sht up.
white hoods dudes? goddamn, live there and never seen one
This has nuance and actually quite useful breakdown man. Good shit
Yo longer ones bruh !!!! Love it❤
