      I didn't hear any exceptional knowledge. The man is 44 years old and is saying basic things and y'all are lapping it up. He's nostalgic, self-contradictory and bitter. Within the first 5 minutes, why was he laughing about the woman getting beaten up. Immature idiot that has no empathy nor remorse. A delayed sociopath. You can tell he's been abusive to women but he's preaching because it sounds good.
      You can tell he's lonely because he rambles. Where are all his loved ones after all these years? You can tell he's not an active father, too. But he lied about that.
      He is mad at this generation for wanting instant gratification but the fact that he went to prison and is a lifelong criminal shows that HE has no impulse control, himself. Just talking to hear himself talk. 44 and still calling himself the king. He doesn't get it. And he never will.
      Idiot.

      @@venus-sg7je Aww, I hurt your feelings with the truth so now you sling whatever fantasies you have my way.
      Coddling and defending that grown man, a pimp no less, is why he's such a wreck. But of course, don't let the "Kang" hear any honest critique. That way, when he's 50 he can have another basic realisation and think he's doing something profound.
      Typing that much is easy. Don't read too much into the length, the accuracy of the content is what counts. Happy new year.

    I think a lot of what Big Knowledge has to say about the game nowadays translates directly to analyzing modern life in general. The notion of taking goofy pictures and living a pretend, empty existence in the name of sort desperate, incessant state of self promotion. I loved when he said, “where’s the reality in that?” Such a good question that I have to remind myself to ask whenever I get locked into a social media based headspace. It is tempting nowadays to put the cart that is online promotion before the horse that is real life. Enjoyed this talk a lot.

    As a square with a psych degree, I could watch this channel all day. The drug stories make me sad and grateful, but the pimp stories fascinate me more than Shakespeare. The things I've noticed the most about the pimpin' videos is the regional differences in culture. The dudes from the south and the west carry themselves with much more vibrato than the NYC pimps. Even knowing squares from NYC I've always noticed a difference in the way they carry themselves. At the beginning of this video I thought, "This guy is way too quiet to be a real pimp" then after 15 minutes I realized I was wrong. This is a guy who isn't shy, but where he comes from you don't show your hand of cards to people you don't know. Once he got more comfortable, you realize this attitude is what made him the successful person he is.

      To be honest, they do have more morals than most men living no matter what color they are. They have something most men lack, discipline. Most men can't go a week without sex or jacking off, but a pimp can go years. Most men can't save money even if they have an high value job. Why? Because of addictions. The truest pimps are not addicted to anything. That's why they win. But only people like you who are on this thread misunderstand because you fail to define the accuracy of the lifestyle they live. When a pimp falls victim to any external addiction, sex, drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, vapes, etc, he loses and falls off. A true Pimp is not addicted to anything but the improvement of himself. This is the true nature all men are supposed possess, but it's a narrow road because of the lack of discipline caused by distractions, which later become addictions. I hope I gave you all more insight into what a pimp truly is.

      I’m so glad you did. I’ve been there. Any real pimp, just like any real man, wouldn’t want you to put up with that. Yet I had that, “Stay down for your crown” mentality. Abusers and exploiters don’t do what’s “vital to the title,” as Sinful the P says. Don’t ever stay down to somebody who’s not down for you. Period. I’m glad there are still people out there like the old school, who value and invest in those who do the same for them. The first pimp I had was like that, so I know it’s not all lip service. You have to go against popular ignorance to express that view the way BK does. My man always says that speaking ill of me is to do the same to himself. Hurting me is hurting himself. He even told me I should love the tricks. In a way, he’s right. Hating your bread and butter is bad business and bad human relations, period. Now I hate the larger social structure that created the business and the trick/Ho dynamic (poverty/inequality, etc), but take each man as an individual. They didn’t create that structure. It has helped me to not be bitter, because what goes around comes around. Abusive men are angry at a lot of things too, but, if they were smart, it wouldn’t be us.

      Hope Asriah from one of Marks other interviews sees your comment or maybe you can comment on her interview. She has 2 boys she's dragged (still dragging) through the life with her.

      only people like you can relate to this bullshit coming out of his mouth. The rest of us are just disgusted and uninterested

    This guy is a real one. There are a few still left like him. So next time you see a "hood" individual out and about, don't immediately try to judge cuz that man could be more knowledgeable than anyone else you've met.

    Worked under this man for about 5months and I can honestly say, he is exactly what he claims to be, a realistic man who lives within his means and respects every part of the actual game but the new "game" b.s
