Thank you for being TRANSPARENT with us. Made me understand you better, and why you go so hard for your family. You have no idea how much your story and testimony motivated me. Keep going peaks, you’ve helped me get through a lot these past couple months since I’ve started watching you, and Shayla. This summer I’m trying to come down to the DMV and try some restaurants down there! Hopefully I’ll run into you guys! God bless, and keep going!
As someone that doesn't talk to their mom cause of all the fuck shit she put me through, big respect for putting it behind you and being at peace with her.
It’s rare that the child decides to be the bigger person, props to him for real. I hope I can get that way with my mom cuz I’m the pettiest nigga alive
The fact that you didn't let your childhood be an excuse to fall into that lifestyle is a testament to your character. We appreciate you sharing peaks!!
Imma be real… he speaking facts about the alcoholic addiction . I’m an alcoholic and I’m working on change. I went and got blood work and my doctor basically told me my liver ain’t working normal. And her exact words was “Don’t quit cold turkey”! Them withdrawals might kill u! Mannn y’all pray for me fr! And Peaks… keep winning! This video was super real💯💯💯
I don't think Peaks ever had to explain "I'm a good guy at heart" - he has always shown that. In an era where every youtuber is making fake content for clout, always keeps it real with his audience. Wishing him and his family nothing but happiness and prosperity.
Right he truly is making a difference. Every time I hop on TH-cam I search up peaks for a laugh. He’s really helping me through my hard times 😢 and I’m a younger 21 year old girly girly who loves watching girls my age on here that make the type of yt content I aspire to make.. but peaks is always my first thought to come to his videos cause he genuinely makes me laugh and entertains me through my hardships. Even me and my bf share laughs with his videos all the time.
Real touching story bro. To see you come through all of that to now having your own family, being a good dad, forgiving your mom, bringing everybody back together. You are what a 'real one' should be defined as, not this gangbanging drug dealing savage who everybody wants to look upto in the streets. Its real stand up dudes like you who are the REAL role models. Big up each and every time homie.
I knew my man grew up wild just looking at his unc and how his mom talks. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but my man is planting his own trees now. I don't even wanna call him Peaks because that's just a screen name. I'd dap him up on his real name.
this video was real asf, everyone goes through some type of struggle n it differs for everyone. the fact that you doing what you are with yourself shows you worked extremely hard to be where you’re at n as a fan this video was 💯💯
the fact that u have so much respect for your mother now when it seems she didnt care enough to take care of you when you needed it most tells me how amazing of a person you are
Respect!!! Thanks for seeing the bigger picture, people always look at things from their perspective. I love my brother and I don't want him to experience what I went through
Thanks for sharing your story. You’re fortunate to have gone down a better path and not let the hardships and trauma affect you. You’re strong-minded and that’s commendable. Keep staying positive and never give up. Would love to hear more stories. You’re a natural storyteller. Cheers to a happy and healthy New Year!! 🥂
I can relate to you fam , i was foster child , man i was abused in there , cigarette burns an broken bones . Was eventually adopted but shii still was rough , alot of domestic violence in my household . Struggle after struggle , darkness after darkness. Really was never no happy times for me in my life an if there was i can probably count on one hand . But at the end of the day i got your videos that lift me up . thank for sharing some of your story , blessing to you n yours 💯🙏
Can still see the hurt in your eyes as you told your story…it all makes sense now why you are such a great father and husband. I have a similar story and through those experiences it made me never want to have my child go through any of it. I am now the father I always wanted to my son. He will never know the pain of abandonment. I applaud you bro keep doing great things. We all ride for EVIL KEITH LEE 😂😂💪🏾
Strong Brother! Some of us survive our past but grow up and recreate it. Others survive and go the opposite direction with their decision making. Blessings!
Thanks for this. Lived about 10 years in the homeless shelter in NY in the 90s as a kid. I'm happy that I did experience what I did. it just makes us stronger. Reason why I don't try drugs my dad OD from heroin and I grew up with that around me as a kid.
Peaks BEEN the realest nigga out… the reason I watch him constantly is the way HE CARRIES HIMSELF. A true testament to staying down & being yourself. You INSPIRE MANY. Thanks for your story man, makes me a better person. Thank you man. Loves from KC.
"when people use their past to do drugs and other stuff it's an excuse"!!!!! Some real spill moe, alot of people have been through hell and back and still made a way for themselves . Nobody past should dictate their future a lot of people need to hear this in this generation fr.
I just would like to say thank you very much Peaks for being very transparent with us. You didn't have to open up to us, and for that, I greatly appreciate it. Thanks for sharing a little bit of your life with us 😊
Yo peaks I was one of those people who had a horrible childhood too, our past is what makes us stronger to be better men in the future. I think of it as a humbling experience now days, I’m glad I went through what I did. You ain’t born with resilience you acquire it
I just found out about Peaks a month ago and watching this video made me respect him so much more. Amazing person who makes great and fun content. I learned a lot about you in this video bro. I fuhhh with you bro. ❤ 💯
That was deep. Folks never know what people go thru. I know you didn't even touch the surface of it all. I can relate to a lot of what you said. Glad you didn't let your past define your future. Thanks for giving us a lil back story on your life. Love your vids. Much love to you and the fam.
Thanks for sharing your childhood with us peaks we wouldve never knew what you been through, i hope your kids are successful like you and see the fine things in life.
damn peaks this shit real. Never know the story behind your favorite content creators but I can tell you been through a lot , preciate you for being real wit us peaks🤞🏾
Big facts I’m from Chicago south side n da shit I went through made me da man I am today n I ain’t pick up no drugs jus cause da shit I went through growin up I gotta family to take care of 💯 keep doin ya thang my boa on foenem
Wow, you never know what a person has been through by looking at them. You are a REAL a*s person. I’m glad I watched this video. I was already fw you. Now I am 10x more. This is the side of people that needs to be shown more. The REAL. Kudos to you for being accepting instead of sitting on hurt, letting the time pass.
Damn Peaks Bruh I’m in the process of gaining joint custody now with a scorned vindictive mother. Your testimony is much motivation for Me All I need to do is have patience and endure to make it through Thaks Peaks 100
I respect Peaks a lot for being a man and choosing to break the cycle of vices and unstable situations and seeing that he’s doing better with his family, good on you Peaks, you a real dude
Sorry for your childhood and what you and your family went through and I’m glad it hasn’t affected you now. But saying other people who it has affected are using it as an “excuse” isn’t fair because people handle things differently. Also, not to be rude but you admitted physical harm was never done to you. For someone else that may not be the case, or even worse sexual assault or more. If they went to drugs or drinking to get away from it that’s not an excuse, it’s how they coped unfortunately. Luckily you didn’t go down that path ❤
Mid video here Peaks. Your childhood experience is def central and personal to you. 58 year old Army Vet here. Love your sharing with us and not saying that you're ashamed of what happened but I can appreciate that you held it close to your heart and decided to share it. All of your past can do one or two things for you, make you an aware and better person or totally the opposite. I wasnt in foster care but my mom was abandoned by my father with 13 kids and she made it happen for us on the daily. I myself tried to defend my mom from my dads violence when I was probably about 8ish that I can remember. Heck, I didnt drink until I was about 20 in the military and afterwards didnt smoke until I was 32 after leaving my wife and going to a bar with "friends". Everything you've been thru as a child and thru teen is shaping you to the person who you are now. Kind of off topic but I lived thru bell bottoms (well my older bros and sis) and skinny jeans and the like, but my point is what comes around goes around and you will hear stories from younger peeps and you will be like DAMN I been thru that and you may offer them your knowledge and experience.... Watch and see. You're a better person and will continue to grow because of your past. ❤🇺🇸👍🏽 Oh, back to the video 😂 Ok, watched till the end. P.S. Peaks... You really dont have to explain everything that happened in detail because thats not what your channel is about. We def appreciate you sharing. Its awesome that you're an open book but if peeps wanna get that deep with you, they can sub to your Patreon and pay extra for the counseling. We love you for your content so keep keeping on and keep doing what you do! I'm not speaking for your thousands of subs but we just watching to see whats good and whats not and if you will take that drink with or without the straw 😂😂😂 Keep entertaining us bro 💪🏽
🔥Good shyt brova . I’m from SE Dc and moved to PG later on and I understand how you feel. It takes a lot to open up to people, yet alone the world. Sometimes it’s ok to open up and the eyes never lie bro . I can see it in your face when you talk about these things . It make you see a more clear prospective moving away from the bs . It makes you a better person and parent . Cause you will most likely not make those same mistakes the more you open up about what you had to see . Proud of you fam . Keep pushing G. 💯
Story really hit home for me. We had very similar childhoods my friend. I've always said to myself growing up that i never wanted to be a victim of my own society because although we all aren't dealt a great hand we can overcome the diversity & use what we've been through to be better people for ourselves and our families. thanks for sharing much love.
Thank you for telling your story, it takes a lot to open up and let people know about your past. As a long time viewer, I appreciate this. I have mad respect for you Peaks 🙏
Ngl man I really feel more connected to you from this video I dealt with the same shit growing up! Mad respect for you telling your story and owning up to alot! You fr my favorite youtuber man! All the blessings to you and your family, you truly deserve everything great coming your way!
Much respect to you bro i grew up with an alcholic mother and she used to have shithead abusive boyfriends and she just couldnt be a good mom but i forgive her for all the shit she has put me through i got truancy hated school all that i fuck with you peaks ypur a real one man salute keep up your grind the lord is with you know that
You were destined for greatness at an early age peaks. I don’t come from a background like yours but i do know what it’s like having to grow up at a young age. You’re still here and thriving with the same group and that’s a blessing. Keep going hard!
Be proud of how far you have come Peaks. This heavy G, I see why you have N uplifting personality because of how rough life was for you. I see u and ur OG have grown from that. Stay out the substances, trust me, they are bullshit. Keep up the good work! I will continue to support this content. You and up your girl seem chill asl and keep doing y’all thing. I love seeing black people shine fr
damn crazy to know we got the same upbringing, probably why you are my favorite youtuber. i became a father myself this year & i always told myself when i was younger id never put my children what i went through. keep doing what your doing my guy 🦾
This is so real of you to tell this story , much respect to you and your mom. We love your mom. Everyone has a past which is why we live , learn & overcome. Your mom is a walking testimony. Much love. ❤
Wallah, I Hope i run into peaks and his team and family and I hope I can spend quality time with them. I felt like I was there eating a meal with him. Love you Peaks, Go crazy this summer 2024!
Nothing but RESPECT Peaks! We all have our dark pasts, some darker than others. You've withstood a lot and should live proudly everyday knowing you're creating a new path for yourself and your family 💯🙌🏼🔥
Wow! Continue to share your story! I don't know if you realize it! But your helping many people! I love that you didn't allow your past to make you bitter! Many blessings to you and your family! ❤️🙏❤️🙏
Nuff respect Peeks. Keep being the amazing Husband, Father and business man that you are. And don't hold nobody in your past accountable for your future... you spoken like ah boss 👊 👊 One love from beautiful Trinidad and Tobago ❤ 🇹🇹.
Yo family definitely gives California vibes this story just confirmed It all for me that’s a crazy lifestyle I’m glad you made it through it bless you and your family
Peaks you’re so blessed 🙏🏽 your platform and audience will continue to grow because of your authenticity and consistency. Definitely bigger than just food reviews, people rock with you because you are so real and it doesn’t go unnoticed. This is hard work! Wishing you and your family nothing but continued success and blessings❤️
Vlog more peaks! I love getting to know you and this story was sad but uplifting at the same time cuz you made it out, are a great husband and father, and your mom quit drinking. I love these type of videos man
You way more than a food reviewer foo💯 this from California 🧡 Preciate’chu for showing us manhood, fatherhood, and not letting your trauma’s define you 💯💯
This is one of my fave videos of yours. Kudos for sharing your story everything you said was real genuine shit and much respect for making sure your kids live better than you did 💯 we def need more specific story times
Thank you for this. For all those who grew up with similar circumstances, you are a success story; an example that you can make it out. I sometimes, when the camera isn’t on, you think about how you MADE IT. You broke the cycle. You should be damn proud about that.
Thanks for sharing your story Peaks. You definitely are an example of that saying that where you come from doesn't define who you are. You seem to have done a great job with creating a new generational trajectory for your family.
That's why Peaks got a big personality and charisma , it all makes sense and it adds flavor to the reviews.
“If you don’t like onions you’re a weirdo” never heard a truer statement
Thank you for being TRANSPARENT with us. Made me understand you better, and why you go so hard for your family. You have no idea how much your story and testimony motivated me. Keep going peaks, you’ve helped me get through a lot these past couple months since I’ve started watching you, and Shayla. This summer I’m trying to come down to the DMV and try some restaurants down there! Hopefully I’ll run into you guys! God bless, and keep going!

Yea we all human and make mistakes. If she willing to fix the mistakes there is nothing wrong with moving forward and forgiving
Man I called my dad this year after not talking to him for 16 years because of my childhood. It felt good as fuck letting the bullshit of our past go.

Thank you for this. For all those who grew up with similar circumstances, you are a success story; an example that you can make it out. I sometimes, when the camera isn’t on, you think about how you MADE IT. You broke the cycle. You should be damn proud about that.

Thanks for sharing your story Peaks. You definitely are an example of that saying that where you come from doesn't define who you are. You seem to have done a great job with creating a new generational trajectory for your family.
