I heard this quote "your biggest supporter is a stranger, your biggest hater is someone you know."

This was a powerful interview. Some real grown man talk. Bravo Boosie !!

Boosie needs to be awarded "THE REALEST ONE OUT HERE" Award. Period.

_"I never thought I'd be the kinda nigga to move to the suburbs. But as soon as I got my check, I WAS GONE!!._" -Uncle Elroy

I heard this quote" never underestimate the hate that you didn't know exist from the people you like and love" that kind of hate hurts you to your core

This is so true. I grew up in northeast Florida. Went off to the military, got a degree, then landed a great career as a defense contractor earning 6 figures working overseas for 8 to 10 months out of the year. Finally I decided to come back home to visit my family and attend my cousins wedding. I had just got a 3 year lease on new Porsche macan and thought it would be nice to go on a road trip to my family instead of fly. I made it home and was talking to my mother. She told me my friend Dee and his mother still stayed in the same house up the road. So after lunch I walked to his house and his mother answer she was great as always. She said he wasn’t home but she’d let him know I stopped by and was in town. Later on that night he came to my parent’s house so he had dinner with us like we use to do when we were kids. Afterwards we were chilling in the back yard chatting. He kept asking me about what I did for a living, how much money I had in the bank. Where did I stay, how much my car cost. He literally wanted to see my bank account to see how much I had in it. He was bizarre. Then wanted me to lend him thousands of dollars. I thought he was joking but he was dead ass serious though. I brush off all the questions and then he was like we should go hit up the strip club. I was like nah thats not my thing but let’s go play some basketball tomorrow after I finish church. He then started trying to pressure me into letting him borrow my Porsche for the night. After I let him know that’s not happening he flipped out on me. He starting cursing me out and was like Nigga you think you better then me because you got money and be hanging with those white people I’ll beat your ass. Pussy ass Nigga I’ll take your car. Blah blah blah I was like dude this is a white neighborhood it’s only 10 black families who stay in this subdivision. He started calling me a coon and Uncle Tom. I was like bro what’s up with you man I don’t understand why you coming at me like this. He finally left my parents house and walked back to his mom’s house. I told my father what had happened and he was like “Dee has changed” and told me to put my car into the garage. My dad took his car out so I could put mines in with my mothers. The next morning my father car and his work truck had all the tires slashed and this wasn’t even the ghetto. We called the police and did a report. The Neighbor across the street came over and asked what happened and we showed them. They said they had a few cameras they could check. Sure enough him and a few of his friends came back around 3am and slashed the tires. Luckily my parents flood lights came on so they could see him perfectly on camera. The police then went to his house with me as a witness to say it was him. They arrested him and he started saying we were dead. He ended up going to prison as he violated his parole. The hate i received was crazy. I have no doubt that if I had took him to the strip club that he would have got me robbed and killed. This was a guy I had known since the 2nd grade and considered my best childhood friend. He was “Hypnotized by Hate” My parents ended up selling their home they had built and leaving the neighborhood they had lived in for 25 years before he finished his prison sentence. It’s always your own people and friends in the black community that want to take you life when you become successful.

Boosie is smartAF. Wisdom comes from living. Living ain’t being a coward.

Jealousy is a mixture of greed, gluttony, desire, hate, envy and insecurity. A jealous individual is your most dangerous enemy!

Yep !!! All facts

I’m a regular dude from Louisiana and I agree with his perspective. Specifically about the people with power trying to get to you. He is spot on and dropped some real facts if you listen close enough.

I never really cared for Boosie's music, but he is as authentic as it gets.

A jealous friend is a dangerous enemy man. When you start see signs of entitlement then you gotta drop em and move on.

You can see in his eyes what he 's gone through in his life..He knows what he is talking about ✌from Berlin Germany

Boosie been through hell and he still positive and real as ever

"Most rappers die in their own city" Boosie's words ringing true again today, April 1, 2019.

"A prophet is only dishonored in his own land, among his own people." - Jesus Christ (Mark 6:4)

Most rappers die in their own city...RIP YOUNG DOLPH

“Cars full of garages” sounds like a whole different type of wealth...

Big respect for Boosie. He’s a legend down here in Louisiana. He’s always dropping facts.

I'm in Louisiana and everything he is saying is truth!!! Got to go

Boosie a realistic guy, He knows how to roll, plus he’s intelligent, he knows the system well. Top guy. 👍🏻

"most rappers die in their own city" Boosie has the look on his face of an old man who has seen generation after generation make the same mistakes. Wisdom is something you earn through tribulations and Boosie is a very wise man. Also man I forgot about my dude Chinx! Harry Fraud and Chinx had some heat! RIP

Boosie has matured so much over the years. Hes thinking before he reacts. Smart guy. Mad respect.

“Most rappers get shot in their own city” - never thought about that

I watched this 3 years ago and I'm just now watching this I've been in this situation before. ALL of my friends including my high school wrestling coaches turned on me a few years ago. I've been a big fan of Boosie since elementary school and I know exactly what he is talking about. I'm from the South and I'm leaving my own city next year cause my city is hypnotized with hatred. RIP XXXTentacion, RIP Young Dolph and RIP Nipsey Hussle

Today is November 15, 2020 and he was just shot yesterday on his birthday while attending his artist funeral. This guy is a treasure we need to come together and protect at all cost. We love you Boosie. Stay safe. And I’ll be praying for your protection. 🙏🏽

This is actually really sad. You look in his eyes and there is pain there, real honest pain. Boosie must have been through a lot in his life. He painted that picture about someone being hypnotized with hate so vividly. It just really sucks man

When he spoke on no limit cash money and him leaving baton rouge .He said it ain't about backing down....its about being smart. Master p just said in another video. " a good run beats a bad stand. " Which means: "A good retreat is better than a bad defeat." He listened

I didn't know you can be friends with someone that is so envious of you until it happened to me, smh.

When he said, hypnotized by hatred it took me back. When we came into the game there was such a thing as artist development or A&R. Some artist's are NOTHING like what you see after they've toatally revamped these people. They got tutored in walking, how to interview, carry themselves. they were told what they could not or better yet should not do anymore. Playing gangster on wax was one thing you didn't do. Real gangsters were going to get at you, period. They were the star's. They make it pop. They make it rain. The sun don't shine if they don't want it too. Lol what this dude said is the honest to god truth. This dude is looking at his girl watching your video and is way too into it for his liking. He can't wait to see you. At home people know you or know about you. Sooner or later you're going to move. They make it almost impossible for you stay there.

Jealousy and hatred runs deep in the black community

There's no such thing as hood loyalty. Look out for yourself and your family's well-being

He keeps it real and he right !! Real talk!! I’m from here and I appreciate him coming out and saying it.. much love !!!

Boosie Speaking facts! Why can’t people be happy for someone else that makes it ? especially your friends!!

This is the true meaning of keeping it real.

Never underestimate the power of envy. Boosie eyes said it all for me. At having to leave his hometown for his own safety, he looked so heartbroken.

He's so write, people that are close to you are the ones who envy and never want to see you grow...

Love him or hate him he one of the realest in the game.

Boosie is wise. Human beings are capable of great compassion but also dispicable evil.

The ones who disliked this video is the people Boosie are talking about!!!!!!!!!

Damn "hypnotized with hatred" profound statement of truth Boosie!! One of the realist interviews 💯 Boosie Badass 💯

Once, a person gets hypnotized with so much hatred, they will go mad far to try to hurt you.

RIP Nipsey... this interview will be the most realest Boosie ever done. Rappers always get killed in their community.

This man is so much smarter than I would've anticipated. He might not be well spoken but there is a lot of wisdom that comes from people with broken dialect. Like my grandmother God bless her soul. 🙏🏾 Respect to you Boosie. 💯

Legendary interview I come back once a year for this clip

Had no idea how smart this dude is, respect

Boosie remind me of that drunk uncle that everybody love

Boosie done grew up... 100!

This prophecy Nipssey found out the hard way! RIP Nip :(

He is not lying... It's a damn shame that this happens. Reality is a MFker🤬

This is what jesus reminded us -- a prophet is never loved in his own country

Boosie a real one. He never made my favorite music but I can listen to my man talk all day.

“Most Rappers Die In Their On City” - Boosie. He didn't realize it at that time but he was speaking prophecy!

I discovered this channel recently and now became a big fan! ❤

Boosie is so REAL when he says “Car full of Garages “ and no one catches it. Because everyone is so focused on the TRUTH. Respect and love bro.

You can see the pain in his eyes when speaking on friends that turned into foes. Smh. So sad

I'm feeling yah bruh. You're on point, keep building your wealth.

Boosie said one thing I agree with and that is people no matter what do not like seeing people being successful especially if their life isn't going the way they want and jealousy and envy is color blind because people who are money poor will always be envious of people with money and that is as old as time itself.

Hes not lying... I love his genuine honesty and hes smart.. Not scared but not stupid either.. Moving from home the best move he could have made... Check mate...

“Car full of garages” lmaooo like this when u see it

I have always loved you! You speak truth and that’s so rare!! Thank you!

Dude was passing out singles at gas stations when I was 18 hustling the hell out of his rap! We didn’t know what we had just been exposed to and that is some of the best times I’ve had with friends! Cuttin up to boosie! But he is speaking 100% truth. New Orleans for sure!

Shit. I'm not even famous. I left my hometown. It wasn't even friends hating on me. I had none for that reason but the one's who hated I never saw coming and to this day they will deny it but the things they said and their actions all spoke different than, "I love you." It was my family; my own blood that hated on me. I'm not even a star. Just a regular man that makes about $50K a year. Where I come from most people are on limited income (retirement, section 8 housing, food stamps, disability, Medicaid, etc). Someone making $50K a year is successful to them. IN reality, $50K a year isn't shit! I left because of the way I was treated!! I completely understand where he's coming from!

The ones who disliked this video, Is the people boosie talking bout

I love his wisdom he the type of person you can talk to all day

Boosie can be a pastor lol Fr, has the voice, the wisdom and smarts to lead these young cats to the better life

Damn Good interview, love it when they are honest and talk about the struggle

In Mathew 15:37 Jesus says "A prophet is honored everywhere except in his home town and among his own family."(New Living Translation Bible)

Mississippi the same way

Young/New rappers need to listen to this here

Young Greatness, a fellow Louisianan died in his hometown of New Orleans today. Rest in peace. 🙇‍♂️ The people from his town were hypnotized with hatred! Boosie was right!

I'm from BR & I remember seeing this man almost everyday on the bus in different color chargers & shit , I had full body chills the whole video , proud of this man for putting my city on the map❤️

Lil Boosie said "Most rappers die in their own city," and people were amazed by the power of his revelation. Man... MOST PEOPLE DIE IN THEIR OWN CITY. THIS IS TRUE ALL OVER THE WORLD. Did you think we mostly died in other cities?

This is my Dude. He speaks straight off without hesitation or regrets. Mad props to keeping it real

From Louisiana and what Boosie is saying is the absolute truth.

Boosie had the best advice. Nipsey just got shot in front of his own store smh.

I love it! Hypnotized with hatred that they can't even see the love. Real shit.

Boosie is a good peson and very wise. May god bless you . Happy new year.

He ain’t lying, that’s why I stay to myself

I hope Boosie gettin royalties from this interview

This will never get old

BOOSIE SPEAKING FACTS🙌🏼 💯🤴🙏

Nipsey is Another example of what Boosie was talking about. Shit crazy bro.

“It’s not about backing down it’s about being smart”. Words of wisdom. Gotta see the big picture and sacrifice. But every sacrifice is a move not a defeat, as in chess, and only puts you in a better position. People who refuse to make sacrifices go nowhere

His conversation is so informative

So glad I've had the opportunity to listen to Boosie and hear his viewpoints and input on many topics. He makes so much sense in all he speaks of. I'm so impressed with him. Glad I got to know him the best one can from a distance, he makes so much sense.

Boosie was speaking so real about it I had to listen to him one more time.

I was born and raised in New Orleans and everything he saying is fax

This man right here talk straight TRUTH. About what's going on, what has happened, about HIMSELF, WHAT IT IS PERIOD. Smart Dude.

Facts. It's good to see folks rise above a surrounding wich doesn't support your well being .that displays growth

And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household.” -Mark 6:4 (ESV)

I feel where he's coming from. People gotta understand, just because you leave your hometown, you are not OBLIGATED to do anything for anyone. He's the regular guy that made it out the hood, and doesn't want to go back because clearly there was nothing there for him to do him any justice and the first thing people say is "You forgot where you came from"... no, you can make it out of somewhere and NEVER forget where you came from, and still not do anything for that city, it could be lots of personal struggles a person had there. You're only obligated to remember the people that was there for you while you were there, not obligated to the city.If I barely had a good life living there you think I'm gonna come back cause you think I owe something? The city didn't even do anything or owe me nothing so why would I go back? The only reason I'd go back is to maybe do a concert once in a while, lend my hand out to a couple people that deserve it, other than that, no shame at all

“He wanted his car full of garages”-bossie 😂

This is sad, because this is why Kanye saying folks get "sacrificed" is not 💯. Famous black people are targetted by their own. But also people who get money start being arrogant and talking trash to the wrong folks

Hypnotized with hatred...💪🏽💯

Real always know real, I'm not a rapper but I can relate totally with Boosie, this can be applied virtually ANYWHERE, I don't even live in America I'm from Belize Central America. I kid you knot, if you start making it better that those around you trust me, hatred and jealousy will develop, wasn't jealousy the original sin?

It's like that in NC too.

This makes me miss Nipsey Hussle. Rest on Champ
