DAMN!!!!! they got some east coast classics on there, major props

but the only west coast they got is Lady of Rage? They need to get some west coast in there, at least Pharcyde, Ahmad, Ras Kass would fit in with the vibe in that mixtape. Maybe we should get a track listing here and make it ourselves?

LOL

Speaking of this list, I was at the gas station today and this dude I used to worked with pulled up in a gray GMC all fulled with buckshot holes in the back panel and his window was smashed out.

I asked "What happened?

he said "I got shot at. What have you been up to?"

I was like "Nothing, just going to school."

He was like "Cool." Then he filled up his tank and I was like "ill see you later"

And he was like "aight man see ya"

They measure the whole city including decent and nice areas. Do you realize how big LA is and how many nice areas go along with in it? Those rankings are nothing but misleading stats based upon lesser/petty crimes averaged upon the whole city population. Some cities is on there higher then others cause the petty crimes is higher even though the other city has a higher murder rate, and other more serious violent crimes.

Someone find the highest murder rates list. ...........Completley different.

Yeah, they need to split the big cities into neighborhoods.

I dont know why they dont use the separate boroughs for New York?

the thing is, where are all the poor people going?

Instead of fixing the problems all they do is push everyone out, move some rich people in and say "look all fixed."

In my old hood the same thing happened. City wanted to rebuild a "mix-income" hood so they tore down all the existin buildings. Like 15000 people where i lived(plus like 25000 in RTH) were displaced. Now you got 40000 ppl without homes and they only buildin room for like 5000 to come back. Anyway, the city gave sum ppl vouchers for other projects in the city. Didnt get that so me n my fam moved to the southside in West Englewood.
Point is, even tho the area that once had a problem gets better, alot of other areas get much worse. In my hoods case, alot of ppl moved to other projects, cheap housing or even some to the "suburbs"(even tho these ones as bad as the inner city).
