You really changed my perspective of life Im glad you gave me an opportunity to show what my community is like & my life appreciate you.. My life finna change for sure
Just wanted to update y’all PawPaw is back home and recovering from his brain bleed. Thank you to everyone who sent kind messages, we still have a ways to go but things are looking much better this week. PS: huge shoutout to RonBandUp and YP Tae for keeping me safe during this video! PS PS: I filmed the wildest video ever with Skrilla and YBC Dul in kensington two days ago. gonna drop it next week be on the lookout.
One thing I really like about Brandon is he doesn’t control the video because he knows he can’t just go into other peoples homes and lives and control them he gives them respect. Like scenes where he’s literally in the background while other people are on camera
I'm a hate viewer apparently I comment something ppl will get mad at bc they can't face reality. But u shouldn't not care of how they are people die of overdoses or drinking a lot of alcohol it's not funny they do need help even if they going through rough times you gotta care u can respect them but not just leave them alone
Or doing crimes if they have that on their mind or something similar u gotta still help them. Idc what ppl say nowadays it's all stupidity and doesn't make sense
Bro with the flip phone is about as stand tall as it get for sayin he’d protect you n for tellin the kid he not Just a fan. Wholesome episode fr much love
dude with the ‘wetm’ tshirt one was also a real one too. idiot pulling a gun out and trying to start something on a busy downtown street had to get talked down by someone with some common sense. unfortunately its the trigger happy idiots like him who give these guys a bad rep (phrased that weirdly the guy with the wetm tee was the smart one)
Also a Virginian here. The V in DMV definitely only applies to Northern Virginia. Source: lived in Prince William and then moved to southern Virginia and frequent Richmond. Richmond is its own subculture easily.
bro the kid that said " Ill protect you with my life" Is insane. Just shows you how loyal these dudes are. Good shit on these dudes tryna keep your emotions in together.
@@BrandonBuckingham Will do that straight away. Gotta support the real ones. Talking about real ones. You're a real one. Always enjoying your videos man. Keep that shit up !
Nothing to protect it was Shamrock the Block, an event where white ppl all come out and get Irish drunk downtown. Dude was just overwhelmed by crowds and it was kinda reckless that the kid was walking around with his hand in his jacket holding like things were going off when in reality its a huge crowd of bystanders
as a Richmonder there are other projects and communities in Richmond that statistically have more violent crime today but the history in Jackson ward runs deep
This is true. At least this TH-camr called the project what it is, Gilpin Court. The Mont guy kept saying Jackson Ward which really short changes the vastness of the Jackson Ward area. All the businesses, houses, it’s more or less a district/zone of Richmond City. As you know, Gilpin Court is a housing project within the district/zone of Jackson Ward. This is for those who don’t know the area.
As a fellow Richmond native my family grew up here back in the day and remembers the 90s when it bad bad in Richmond when we would visit from New Jersey. But eventually we all came back down here right now. I’m off monument Avenue and I love it at times It can bring down here but the vibes here are very chill
Ron bandup was the Man. Everyone else nowdays always got to be a tough guy and act like they're about that life But Ron was Different he Had Positive Vibes and Was always smiling. thats the kind of dude that can go anywhere in the world and make friends. Shout out to him
As someone who’s from Southside Richmond, born and raised in JD & Terminal Ave, minutes away from Hillside projects, I throughly enjoyed this video. The crime has gone up in other areas outside of Gilpin for sure, but shit ain’t sweet around there either. I do appreciate the spotlight this video gives on the community greatly. Ron is right about the DMV point. Richmond is its own thing. The DMV is DC and anything within the metro lines in Northern VA & Southern Maryland. Baltimore don’t claim DMV. VA Beach & Norfolk don’t claim DMV. They got their own cultures like Richmond. I found this video through my twin who sent me your Kensington Ave video. Keep up the great work!
Dude is right about the DMV. Northern VA ain't nothing like Richmond. Richmond has it's own flavor and culture. It's actually awesome. All the places (Dc MD & VA) got their own flavor. Blessings to you Buckingham for sharing the light energetic people of Richmond 🪻✨
True. Alexandria, Fairfax, Crystal city all DMV, Fredericksburg is stretching it. Richmond is an hour south from Fredericksburg which is an hour south of DC. I'd say with anything within an hour is DMV "metro Area".
@@Flippinliving An HOUR outside the Metro 🤦🏽♂️ 😂 DMV is the Metro line ONLY. If it doesn’t have a Metro Rail running through it, it’s the outskirts. Period.
I don’t know anything about how the hood works from an inside perspective, but I like how the majority of this video it was all about positivity. “If you don’t have beef, then don’t start beef. It’s not worth it”
I'm from Richmond, Virginia. I been locked up with a lotta dudes from Jackson Ward. I'm so glad that you gave this place it's due! Shoutout to you, man. This made me feel somethin special. Been watching Brandon Buckingham forever but never thought I'd see him in my neck of the woods. Much love
Bucki is really the type of a dude who can get along with anyone, so chill and sarcastic I swear. Ron is always smiling and these people do speak some positivity, so I do hope they make it and it makes their lives more peaceful. They do have a mentality on the right path
Shoutout to Richmond. I’m a Southside dude so you never found me around any the Big 6 housing projects, but I grew up when Blackwell was poppin before they tore them down. Props to Broad Rock too.
Im from Bronx, New York and moved to the northside of Richmond back in 2017. I did uber and lyft and used to drive around the Jackson Ward area, and yes, they are notorious. BUT, like dude said, if you dont look for trouble, you are good money. I used to get customers from all the court housings (projects how we say in New York), and these kids schooled me to how things are in those hoods. I remember one time I drove a family to Mosby Courts, and these people was having a block party. I told them now thats how you do it, we all laughed. The girl even asked, would I like to vibe out with them. If i didnt have to make money, i would have. Again, dont look for trouble, you good to go.
i respect the balance of videos on your page, you’re able to make funny content while also focusing on serious matters, which is really rare these days
I live less than two miles from Gilpin, and shit gets crazy down here. I don't go outside without a piece after sundown. Richmond's a wild city all around. You can literally watch the atmosphere change block by block
as someone who lived in rva for years, this video made me so oddly nostalgic for my city. and yes, RVA is not DMV lol DMV is DC, Maryland and (Northern) Virginia.
I’m late to this. I’m from Delaware and DMV is dc metro va. So PG county, maybe a portion of Anne Arundel, DC, NoVA. (Arlington, Fairfax, Fairfax co..) Baltimore isn’t dmv, Richmond isn’t dmv.
@@Based_Sir887 seriously that dude seemed like the definition of a try-hard. "Can I rap please? you gotta pay me tho!" and trying to clown his buddy just cause there's a camera in his face...
Brandon you the shit bro . Doesn't matter where you go people fuck with you and this shows everyone can get along wherever you from when your respectful to their community. Just good vibes and respect brothers and sisters .
im not gonna lie, this prolly the best group of people ive seen in any of the tommyg/BB on the ground vlog style. everyone in the group hella positive and still were cooking in the snack house.
Growing up in the DMV, I never heard Richmond being considered within the "dmv". I believe it's because DMV, you have bunch of people commuting into DC for work from Montgomery and PG counties, Fairfax/Loudoun/Prince William counties. Not as many people commuting from Richmond to DC daily for work, as Richmond is a major City with jobs/companies, not just Suburban area where most jobs would be retail/food.
This!! I'm in southern Va and not many of us really say we from DMV. When you think of DMV, you think of the city and DMV really is the part where they all connect if that makes sense. Like if you from DC then obv you from DMV but as i'm from southern Va, I wouldn't really say i''m from the DMV even tho technically we are ig. I don't even know how to explain it. Most of the southerns in Va don't even want to be apart of northern Va.
I'm a native Richmond Virginia and grew up in Dove court, which is basically right down the street from Jackson Ward. we left Dove court in 96 before they tore it down and rebuilt a subdivision. I went to school with a lot of Jackson ward people too. I'm going to subscribe as I literally just started my first podcast today!
Gilpin Court and Jackson Ward getting put on the map, it’s dangerous but I’m glad it’s getting awareness with this, the community appreciate this one fa shooo! 💯
It was on the map back in the '90s when Christopher Goins killed 5 people, including 3 children ages 3, 4 and 9 all relatives of Tamika Jones, who he also tried to kill and was pregnant with his child at the time. It was a lot worse back then.
I’m from Virginia and still here I drove by this place many times and it makes me sad how we’re not trying to renovate and make more money for these types of areas and I watched on the news of that guy who died rip that man
As someone from the suburbs outside of Richmond I’ve always been told to stay clear away from Jackson Ward but this video really put a nice perspective on the area and that there are plenty of good people down there
The young kat with the flip phone got more heart than half some towns. Keeping it real AF with what he's got and str8 making it not only work but but making it work hard. Shout out from ur NC boyz
bro agreeddd!! the most dangerous activity in jward these days is being a bicyclist lol. so many of my friends have been it by cars while biking in jward. but for sure east side alphabet soup area is way worse.
@@Shecanread_shesbad 1000% it's worse over there. When you live on "R street" they just don't want to waste money with more letters... It's fucking bad😆😆😆
And yo I'm so freaking tempted to sign up for your Patreon, those dude's were mad chill they gave off great vibes. Wish the video didn't end so quickly, I wanna watch more of it. Hopefully you have that one guy in more video's in the future! 🤞
Ron, You a leader mann i hope u truly make it out that bad environment, you truly got a good mentality and you truly got alot of potential man i see it abd i hope u see it as well man . 💯 the way u carry urself say alot obout u man Good luck.
Soooooo, this was an interesting clip. Students from a highschool I used to work at. They educated me on information I had no clue about. Respect 👊🏾 for the lesson back✌🏾
Im also from Northern Va. DMV typically was reserved for ALL DC, MD, VA. HOWEVER - that's not how it played out. The 804/757 culturally didnt mesh with NOVA/MD/DC, cuz theres a lot of stuck up rich kids in nova. Theres still hood and low-income neighborhoods in nova too, but more rich kids than richmond. Therefore, over the years 804 & 757 became their own thing culturally. Same as Baltimore. They culturally didnt mesh with the "DMV". However - recently, local OGs, INCLUDING PUSHA T & PHARELL, have spoke about trying to bring the DMV together, particularly the 7 cities of VA. They say we are stronger together, and when we're divided, it doesnt support eachother or collaborate with eachother it affects us all overall. But when we all collaborating and working together, beautiful things happen. DMV truly is a creative hotbed and the ONLY thing holding the region back, is OURSELVES.
Jus wanted to say thanks for uploading buck I rlly needed ts today ain’t even finna lie😂 and I hope papa is doin good🖤 yall gotta get that road trip rollin!!
You should consider checking out Roanoke, VA. It's a small ass city of like 100,000, but consistently ranks as one of the most dangerous in Virginia, even above Richmond. Only in certain areas, though - it's mostly contained around Melrose Ave. People get shot literally daily, which is nuts for such a small ass city. Editing in: I loved this video, it was kind of wholesome. The snack house and them literally swooping you away and protecting you. I hope all the good things happen in life to these people
Gtfoh, dangerous from what bear attacks and mountain lions. I have been to Roanoke several times and have never felt any dangerous vibes. That ish isnt nothimg to brag about.
Shout out to Richmond from Baltimore I got peeps out there. I don't feel like neither Richmond/Hampton roads or Baltimore is the DMV but to the rest of America we are
My dude said "This is for Richmond" & takes the last shot of Jack Daniels & immediately spits it back out 😂😂 after gargling Jack Daniels like listerine dude struggled more & more after each shot 😂😂
You really changed my perspective of life Im glad you gave me an opportunity to show what my community is like & my life appreciate you.. My life finna change for sure

@@BrandonBuckinghamnamean
rva is 100% not in the DMV
@@BrandonBuckingham lol you close ain't you from MD
Yeah I live in virginia. The DMV just refers to the area around DC basically inside the beltway
As someone from the suburbs outside of Richmond I’ve always been told to stay clear away from Jackson Ward but this video really put a nice perspective on the area and that there are plenty of good people down there
Hell yeah shout-out my 804 homies we gang fr love it here
Showin love to VA is a must, Richmond, Chester and around there
Crazy how rhey hated on a grown man for walking away from a pointless shootout
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug
Trash culture is trash culture
I love how dude says he don’t smoke or drink like that then proceeds to gargle the Jacky D 💯💯
we had to celebrate for the one time
Ron says I don't drink or Smoke and Brandon makes him chug a pint with him 🤣
Such a positive vibe bro! Thanks for bringing us out there!
The young kat with the flip phone got more heart than half some towns. Keeping it real AF with what he's got and str8 making it not only work but but making it work hard. Shout out from ur NC boyz
Jackson Ward isn't even the worst project in RICHMOND!😂😂😂
bro agreeddd!! the most dangerous activity in jward these days is being a bicyclist lol. so many of my friends have been it by cars while biking in jward.
but for sure east side alphabet soup area is way worse.
@@Shecanread_shesbad 1000% it's worse over there. When you live on "R street" they just don't want to waste money with more letters... It's fucking bad😆😆😆
@@tjaydagreatmy girl used to live on Q street, ain’t that whole area getting gentrified?
@@ghguevara That sounds about right. VCU is buying up everything. Idk tbh though. I live in NC now. I was in Richmond earlier today though lol
Facts south side got it worst
Virginia is so diverse in so many counties. It ain’t the same anywhere but in NoVa. These dude on some good vibes bro. Respect

Soooooo, this was an interesting clip. Students from a highschool I used to work at. They educated me on information I had no clue about. Respect 👊🏾 for the lesson back✌🏾
One of my fave videos so far, these guys are too cool and their vibe is different to all the other hoods. Much respect
I lived in Richmond for 7 years when I was in college. That city raised me. Lived in jackson ward for 2-3 of those 7 years.
Im also from Northern Va. DMV typically was reserved for ALL DC, MD, VA. HOWEVER - that's not how it played out. The 804/757 culturally didnt mesh with NOVA/MD/DC, cuz theres a lot of stuck up rich kids in nova. Theres still hood and low-income neighborhoods in nova too, but more rich kids than richmond.
Therefore, over the years 804 & 757 became their own thing culturally. Same as Baltimore. They culturally didnt mesh with the "DMV".
However - recently, local OGs, INCLUDING PUSHA T & PHARELL, have spoke about trying to bring the DMV together, particularly the 7 cities of VA. They say we are stronger together, and when we're divided, it doesnt support eachother or collaborate with eachother it affects us all overall. But when we all collaborating and working together, beautiful things happen. DMV truly is a creative hotbed and the ONLY thing holding the region back, is OURSELVES.
Gargle Squad Is Crazy 😂😂😂
RonBandUp was awesome in this one
check out his music
Jus wanted to say thanks for uploading buck I rlly needed ts today ain’t even finna lie😂 and I hope papa is doin good🖤 yall gotta get that road trip rollin!!

R.i.p Leon 🐐
Buddy shot real spit from his mouth no way I would’ve doubled back for that bottle 😂😂😂
I love that older ladies voice 😭
she was so sweet and funny😭😂
She must sound nice in the bedroom, if you take my meaning
“Are yall rappers ?” 😂
You should consider checking out Roanoke, VA. It's a small ass city of like 100,000, but consistently ranks as one of the most dangerous in Virginia, even above Richmond. Only in certain areas, though - it's mostly contained around Melrose Ave. People get shot literally daily, which is nuts for such a small ass city.
Editing in: I loved this video, it was kind of wholesome. The snack house and them literally swooping you away and protecting you. I hope all the good things happen in life to these people
facts
U high? Richmond was the only city in Virginia that was the murder capital of the United States EVER!!
540 big facts💪💪
Daily??? Lies!!! Smh!
Gtfoh, dangerous from what bear attacks and mountain lions. I have been to Roanoke several times and have never felt any dangerous vibes. That ish isnt nothimg to brag about.
$8,000 a year is crazy.
I know, I live in a well above average area but if you are only making 8k you aren’t working hard enough
Couldn't be me 🤑
I make that in an hour
Nah that’s that “where’s my money Uncle Sam” mentality.
What is crazy to me is majority single moms with average 3 kids.
he’s so comfortable in their hood too like it was great to see that!
Ron has immaculate vibes. Bro was smiling in the midst of danger lol
RonBandUp is such a vibe . Dude is a real sunshine 🌞 frfr
Praying for Pawpaw's speedy recovery
Shout out to Richmond from Baltimore I got peeps out there. I don't feel like neither Richmond/Hampton roads or Baltimore is the DMV but to the rest of America we are
Metro lines only.
Baltimore and Richmond are NOT the DMV!! DMV is literally the “DC METRO” area ONLY.
“HIGH STANDARD, low rent project housing” 😭😂😂😭. I cant believe what i just heard
Mosby, Whitcomb and Fairfield Court definitely the most dangerous right now multiple shootings and deaths in those areas so far this year
Buckingham needs one of those bulletproof backpacks!
And a “press” vest
My dude said "This is for Richmond" & takes the last shot of Jack Daniels & immediately spits it back out 😂😂 after gargling Jack Daniels like listerine dude struggled more & more after each shot 😂😂
they downed that bitch fast ash too 😂
He said he didn't drank
