He isn’t a hero, however he is a good voice for the community in terms of shedding light on gang culture, violence, and the hypocrisy of our people who are infatuated with it .. no hero ! But I do stand behind a good amount of what he says no question.
I'm a white woman and I had a friend in high school,.young black man. He spoke proper English, ran around with his skateboard, liked music that was in no way accepted by the black community. He was called a white boy all the time.I would ask him if that ever bothered him and he would say why would I be bothered by not being accepted by a bunch of idiots?He was strong enough to stand in his truth and was unbothered and we are friends until this day.And hes still the same unapologetic man he was back then.....
🎯🎯 Same happened to me. Grew up in a terrible neighborhood that shamed you for being a "smart kid" while the "cool kids" around me were joining gangs. They approached me and told me what had to happen for me to join. I remember thinking: "I gotta fight all y'all at one time just to hang with y'all??".. I respectfully declined and took my chances out there by myself.. In reality though, that need for acceptance wasn't as strong in me because EVEN THOUGH MY DAD DIDN'T LIVE WITH ME, I knew that when the wknd came, he'd be pulling up in that loud azz old, embarrassing truck 😂 and take me away from that and put me around my real family, brother, cousins, his in-laws, WHOEVER.. and I could count on that sh*t like clockwork and I'll forever be grateful to my father for that.
Facts. I remember being at a party and watching a huge fight break out, one guy from my block had 2 dudes stomping on him as he tried to crawl to the exit. I pulled one of the dudes off him only because he was blocking the door and I was trying to get out. That next day, him and his people went around our hood jumping everybody who was at the party and didn't fight/help. It blew my mind that eventhough this dummy went and started this big melee, I was expected to fight alongside him when I didn't even know his name and wasnt apart of his gang. I only got a pass b/c he remembered that I pulled one guy off him. But it hit me that just being from that hood, I was "in" a gang.
these are discussions that need to be had. there are too many young, black boys and girls peer pressured into being accepted. those who are bullies in the hood are hurt people, and hurt people will hurt other people. the cycle will continue until more of us speak up, and do something different.
Im white and it's beautiful to see a educated black dude speak facts and put the community on notice. All these rappers do is disrespect their own and put that influence on young kids. Bout damn time 💯
Years ago there was a challenge that went viral called the "Knock out challenge" were young black boys randomly knocked out elderly people..Well some elderly will respond back with deadly force..Ti son and Tootie remind me of those kid of kids.
Wow! 0:30 to 1:10, is exactly what I went thru for years growing up. When I went to visit my grandmother all the kids in the neighborhood teased me- saying, "you talk like yt people." Fast forward to high school, my sophomore year- I begged my mother to let me go to Jack Yates- a black high school close to my grandmother's house. Finally, she let me go. From the time I got there; I constantly heard- " you talk so proper, like a yt girl, ha ha ha, you can't even cuss right." (from the girls and guys)... I did not dress like my peers. I was basically business casual almost everyday. The guys liked me ( the preppiest, most popular, valedictorian and athletes)- and the girls hated me. Although, I had crushes, I wasn't into dating at all. There were times that I'd be in the bathroom mirror practicing to sound more black- just to fit in- how crazy is that?? Although I'm fluent in both now- 🤣😂🤣 I dance to my own beat! I never told my mother any of this.
First time I heard an interviewer be able to have a good back and forth with Charleston instead of all listening. More of 2 equals talking than Charleston teaching
King and Tootie display behavior they feel is expected of them based on what they hear and see from their fathers and their associates compounded with the lyrics they rap, they both have brothers, but it seems they are the most like what their fathers portray.
Exactly, unfortunately this is a common story..I was a oreo, white girl, etc etc...thankfully I was raised on Malcolm X, Patrice Lumumba, and, many great leaders who were articulate, educated, thought provoking. So I knew not to define my blackness as a ghetto caricature that I was not...we need to be educated on our greatness, so we don't settle for mediocrity.
I think this podcast put something on Charleston's mind in regards to TI and Boosie's sons. I can see CW being much lighter on them and sympathizing with how they are acting out. 👍🏾
@@willie417 no all of them don't. We've never heard of a great majority of rich, famous kids acting out. These dudes just don't have a handle on raising their sons especially TI kid. These kids are spoiled brats.
@@torrenceanderson4326 I bet they do, they just keep it under wraps better and if they're not in entertainment, we'll more likely will never hear about it
@@willie417 agreed but that being said TI needs to be a man over his house and keep his sons bullcrap behavior out of the spotlight but it's too late for that because if you haven't started disciplining your kid early on, you can't wait till they are 16 and 17. It's over! Who goes around embarrassing his family the way he does? A kid that hasn't gotten disciplined at home. Evidently the other entertainers done taught their kids, "f%&k around and find out if you want to" and they know that their parents mean business from being raised that way.
@@torrenceanderson4326 the question is who was taking care of him, while TI and Tiny was out touring getting that money and he TI was making movies, coming home for a few weeks and then hitting the road again, a lot can and will be kept away from you, I saw that boy, he's a mamma's boy's
There is a difference between you and King. You were just a kid in the hood. King was born with a silver, gold and diamond spoon. King has been embraced because of his parents status! Big, big difference. Many blessings. #SheisMonaLisa314
King prolly still have a bunch of thug ass cousins in Atlanta that he hang around. Just cause his daddy rich and he should be able to realize he don’t have to live like that. But he probably still wants to cause he sees his cousins acting like that and wants to feel like he’s apart of the group. He can still be influenced even tho he’s rich. Just like how a lot of kids who grew up in the suburbs still wanna be hood, or lie ab where they originally from etc, happens all the time. Still aint right tho.
Realizing you didn't see it from that person's,s perspective is very humbling. Charleston realizing that probably is spark of change those young fellas need.
I feel the host. When i was younger i liked skate boarding my mom a college professor so i spoke properly but the black kids at my school made fun of me for that. I wanted to be accepted so bad i got jumped into a gang started selling dope went to jail n became a completed different person than who i really was
Great Inerview, job well done. Change title or this video will appear as all them old videos that everyone has watched from the beginning of this fall out. Perhaps "CW on King and Tootie Gangsta Rap Lineage"
I agree with bro the interviewer. I was considered a nerd & geek because I made good grades. It never got physical. But it played a part on my psyche and I suffered for it. This is the truth. Subbed. Big ups !
YOU CAN 💯 JUST LIKE WOMEN CAN STOP 🛑 DATING BUMS AND JAILBIRDS, AND DL METRO's PASSING UP DECENT HONORABLE MEN who aren't conformed by societies backwards standards. Issue is although we wish and hope no one is doing it. So ig that's cw's whole point.
If women started saying how much they liked nerds and men with they head on their shoulder I guarantee that would make a huge shift in the thug dynamic… of course it’s not their fault but think about how much women are constantly boasting how they want a thug, love hood dudes, etc. a lot of these fellas do this solely to be seen by women ….
As a group home kid I can relate to that and what's so foul is the PLETHORA of older black men that REFUSE to pull us to the side and say "Nah bro trades make real money." Why? Because if we go into trades and industry they lil money flow stop so they'll LEAD you to prison, death, and torment of ya soul just to keep small change in THEIR pocket because they not man enough to admit they didn't find a better way...
That was excellent. Yes young dudes like King and tooty are under a lot of pressure through no fault of they own because of their fathers. Not sure of the answer on that one.
As a black square quiet kid from the hood that loved history and to read books I DO NOT RELATE to these type of situations . I found my own circle of friends did not try to fit in crowds that didn't want me and neither did I want to be in that crowd .stood on my own square and did my own thing . I was the kid who stayed in the projects .we were bussed to school with whites and suburbanites . The people didn't believe I stayed in the projects and when I went home to the hood I wasn't bullied are beat up by my people .the people who I PERSONALLY know that feel like the brother were trying to fit in with the cool crowd that rejected them repeatedly like fools . Instead of being cool in their own skin ..
Not that he beat CW, he did what Kevin gates, made him positively look at something another way. He might have just squashed the beef with TI with this interview. I'm pretty sure he looks at king situation different now
He not lying I was smart growing up I lived in a community of all minorities. My mom use to beat our ass if we sagged our pants or acted like we couldn’t speak proper English. We moved to a better community mostly whites but the black people that were there judge us and would say “ there’s no way your from Chicago and you talk yt “ . It made me want to be excepted so bad I wouldn’t talk full sentences and I started skipping school and not doing my homework. As an adult I’m starting to work on my masters degree in college and when I see my old black friends they’re asking for help
Charleston White isn't the hero that black people want, but rather the hero that black people need!
True. It’s sad that he won’t live much longer.
He isn’t a hero, however he is a good voice for the community in terms of shedding light on gang culture, violence, and the hypocrisy of our people who are infatuated with it .. no hero ! But I do stand behind a good amount of what he says no question.

can you drink my nut yet im on the west coast and I was told its sweeet

"I couldn't be myself within my community" is one of the realest statements I've heard.
I'm a white woman and I had a friend in high school,.young black man. He spoke proper English, ran around with his skateboard, liked music that was in no way accepted by the black community.

Boosie said on a vlad interview...What do I expect...I had him with me (tootie) thugging since a lil boy.
Bro this was great you soldiers keep it up Salute
His story at the beginning is the same story me and a lot other black kids had. Called white and all types of stuff for not behaving a certain way

good work, volume is low though
I subscribed for the sole purpose of the splendid discourse I have revealed before me.
So he was 19 or 20 when that fight happened but he didn’t get out of the boys home until he was 21……okay well believe it
He was going a small portion of a moment in time. He could been on a Release program or anything at the time.

Which means he has a Undergraduate degree in Biology. What is your point?
