    I'm from Harlem, 120th & St. Nick. Don't know son personally but was outside during his era and definitely know of him and his crew. He is speaking 💯% facts. This man could have been one of the greatest business/military/strategic minds of our time if the circumstances were different but "the system" shits on people like him. Respect this brother. Glad u made it thru ✊🏾 If u know u know.

      Better believe it. They don’t want us on top OR running anything, unfortunately. We’re a threat and “they” know that. That’s why I hate todays culture. If we stuck together instead of knocking each other off, we as a people would be dangerous beyond belief….

      My comment too...be careful what you ask for. IF you an out of towner.. good luck. If you grew up here you better know your way around. Where to go.. not to go...who to know. Grew up in Harlem..late '60s-'70s. Knew a bunch of the Hustlers..used to see some of them in the newspaper sometimes. See them on TH-cam and Facebook now. Those still living and those killed back in the day. Me and my boys wasn't into that life. We were athletes and stayed in school and got respect from them dudes. Crazy times back then..it was great if you survived and avoided the lure of Heroin.. selling and using.

      Mailboxes were often used to stash guns...drugs...or in this case a hammer. I worked with Mailmen that told me this was common practice.
