Despite not having the greatest weather on friendliest ppl, rents dumb high and no you cant find a parking spot-the City’s population actually rose-from 6 mil in the 80′s to its current of 8 million..so stop clocking me I dont know you..go that way

Our slang which in NYC is “hood specific” so what they say on St. Ann in the South Bronx may have never been heard of on Cozine Ave in East New York(my hood), but most of these are NYC 5 boro wide-

“Money ” as in man or guy

cops some might say “5-0″ we say “Jake” go listen to Nas and Jigga and Ghostface

Crack is crills, guns are “krons, skets, rachets, burners and biscuits”

we dont bust a “cap” we’ll “clap” you

and leave your shirt “wet”

a “herb” is a wussed out dude

“Duke” as in “duke in the white BM” or “mom-dukes”

“red bricks” is the projects

“wools” or “woolers” are blunts with coke, “skiing” is doing lines of coke,

“iron horse” is the train

“flippin” as in ” we saw them and started flippin on em real quick” it means to just lose it bascially

“UFO’s” anyone not from your side,

trees=weed

burn it down= smoking weed

“gaming” as in runnin game

The Street Games-english bulldog-coco livio-to manhunt, and of course ” flys up” and skelly

The City is not contiguous-there are 5 counties in the city, therefor there is no “side” you cant just come here and say take me to the “westside” ok you mean in Manhattan over by 8th ave but if you in the BX then you get dropped off somehwere on Jerome Ave -yea I know confusing but its New York

If each boro was a city it would STILL be as big and rival your city

Amercia as always hated NYC…well we have never given a fuck

Queens has the most diverse pop in all of the US and these are ppl coming from places in which they NEVER seen snow or shit on the sidewalks-or “yellow” snow for that matter

Queens also is the only US census track in which BLACKS get paid MORE than whites

Midtown Manhattan has more skyscrapers than ALL of Chicago

“downtown Brooklyn” just sound so official

West 4th, Delacny St, JaimaicaAve (named after the same person for which the isalnd is named after), 34th st,125 st and of course Fulton St in BK

Yay for the Jags! I went to Southern U., so N.O. is my second home. I fell in love with that damn N.O. accent (literally). I go through withdrawals around Mardi Gras, but I’m always there for the Classic. Be there for Jazzfest! What you know about yea and no after a statement. “I’m ’bout to go, yea!” LOL

I’m from Memphis, so I love:

Saying “mane” before, in the middle and after statements. It can evoke many emotions….just depends on how you say it

Beale Street in the summer

Bert’s and Greg’s commercials (“I looovvvee to see Greg’s guys doing it!”)

Old school 3-6 Mafia

Libertyland (our makeshift theme park)

Funnel cakes at the Mid-South Fair

Being proud that I have NEVER been to Graceland, but lived in the same neighborhood for years

Having the same black mayor for more than 15 years
