How are you still alive bro? You must be a smooth talker or offer money, because as many bangers as you go around, it's a numbers game. I hope you stay safe man. 😬
I got the HELL out of Chicago and decided to enroll in a local community college. After my 2 years were up, I decided to go further than a 2-year degree; I then received a scholarship from 2 HBCU's in Arkansas(UAPB and Arkansas Baptist College). I accepted the full scholarship to UAPB. I can say now, leaving Chicago for 3-1/2 years was the best thing that could happen to me. I now reside back in Chicago, but with a better job and now going back into the same communities rehabbing the same communities that I once hated! Go to school or take a trade up, young black men!
Congrats for your accomplishments! I wish other black kids would follow your lead and find you an inspiration. I lived in Humboldt Park and tried to get young adults to into jobs or lead them to trade school. I tried so hard only to hear excuses for why not to change. It breaks my heart listening to this interview that black kids are more interested in criminal gang life.

Dam Charlie do interviews stop making a mockery out of these young brothers an forcing them to navigate the convo into criminal activities an petty squabbles
@@sunup2sundown If you don't like it don't watch. No matter what type of questions I ask somebody complains. When I was only asking political question about the Mayor, city, their views on certain other issues, sometimes interviewee's didn't know who the mayor was etc, and people got mad saying I was making a mockery by intentionally talking about things they wouldn't know. There were several questions asked that are not on here including personal, political, current events, favorite food, etc that might be a part 2, but I found out you can never satisfy everyone.
I dig it I just notice that a lot of questions to dez impressionable young mean perpetuate violence an a mentality you asked about do they know who shot them come on man get real but I watch cause I’m a fan
@Max nope - mostly both missing. It takes 2 to tango. You can have a mother that is not emotionally available or stretched so thin that she can’t be an effective parent. And we have to look at who is choosing the fathers. 🤔 Single parent households are a detriment and an impediment. We have to get our s-!# together ......NOW Parenthood should be PLANNED - by BOTH mothers AND fathers. Females just tend to get left holding the bag - which doesn’t make them the better parent🤔😳🧐
@@jt2861 ..... I recognize your reasoning... and those who have a vested interest in The English Language I’m confident agree with you. That said one of the glories of English is its dynamic equivalencies & flexibility. So much so it’s quite common to hear English loan words used in what is erstwhile a conversation in a different tongue. If I was able to press you a bit, is this something cultivated from home & hearth? Your Mum or Da insistence on a level of formality & proprietary in speech & pen? I get it, truly I do.... but in a format as this, could such rigor be a wee bit over the top?
Here is one huge problem. Growing up in the hood, constantly feeling danger, and surviving, puts tremendous pressure on the psychic. I believe it is a form of PTSD. For a real young person it is very serious, and one cause of the destruction of normal goals in life like studying in school, the desire to go to college, the desire to get married and have kids, etc. Without strong parents, the problem gets worse as the child grows up.
These are just human beings like everyone else. The environment and trauma makes them dangerous. They're not just gonna go hurt Charlie for no reason. Why would they? They're being listened to, and shown plain respect. Something they may not be used to.
The O Gang say what they want to say. I hope someday they can get at least 1 song in the top 100. Those old timers say Raps lyrics should be nice but as an old timer we had plenty of songs as far back as the 1960's where songs meant violence, alcohol, drugs, sex in whatever way, and many more. Thanks for the interview Charlie.
@@RL.1 Seriously, I’m deaf. I usually watch these to see the places he drives through but it would be nice to know what they’re saying although there’s multiple people talking at once
@@osiris654 I wasn't laughing because I thought you were deaf, I was laughing because 95% of the 'conversation' in this video is in ghetto-thug broken English and there would literally be no way for closed captioning to figure out what anyone is saying.
@@jedknutson8373 yeah I was wondering who that guy was in the back. But no I didn’t assume it was theirs it’s just funny the content of what they’re speaking about and then seeing the decor.
Love the interviews Charlie u do hope you ask them other questions like "If you could have a different life would you." and "how do you feel about gang banging" do you ever see you self leaving the streets? " and more lol
Ain’t no therapy gone change these boys this a lifestyle for these boys this how they raised it’s just gone be a repeating cycle till some actual change happens🤦🏽♂️
It's sad to think that in 5 years they'll all be dead or in jail or old man wearing Young Thug clothes looking like a total moron, but if all you achieve is to rule the two blocks around your house this is what you get
@@tinkaluvsjesusyou1120 because it’s the lifestyle they choose to live. I watched a video of a bunch of young guys rapping not long ago. The video was a few years old. They were so irresponsible in their handling of firearms, I was thinking it was only a matter of time before they were all dead. Went to the comment section. Yeah, all of them were already dead.
I plead the blood of Jesus over this comment! 🙏! One of these gentlemen could be the doctor that saves your life 8 years from now! Hope is not lost! All lives matter ☆♡☆♡☆
I thought it be young Charlie and Dmoe when I saw the title, we all want an update soon Charlie on the guys you interviewed many times but whenever possible of course, because we know and appreciate how busy you are 💯💯💯 💖💖💖
As a white lady I really appreciate these interviews because they open up and I can hear their perspective on their own terms without fear of judgment. Your videos open up new understandings for me about living in poverty
Stay safe and healthy guys... Seek true inner peace and happiness sooner than later... it's far more valuable than anything else. And Call your Mom!! ❤ Blessed Up
Brah u literally done Chicago so many times like go to Alaska or something and check out their hoods since they the most dangerous state in the country lol 😂
Props to the mom of the guy in the gold jacket for keeping the apartment so clean, and isn't she a doll for staying in her bedroom when his friends are over? Moms are the BEST!!! I bet she even cuts the crusts off his Grilled Cheese while he is on house arrest.
tough life , i got shot too , i am from the Balkans , also lost a lot of blood cause artery in the leg , i was almost going to die , i was 18 back then , 2 weeksbefore my 19th birthday
Being an alcoholic is def worse than being a weed addict but weed isn't good for your psychological development. You smoke a lot for a while and you get paranoid and foggy.
I know these guys speak English, however coming from New Zealand 🇳🇿 it’s really really hard to understand their accents. Bloody interesting listening to their talk, even if I have to backup and rewind to understand.
You ever notice, people in the hood never replace their smoke alarm batteries? Maybe, it has to do with the fact that everyone has their own joint. 😂😂 Still that beeping drives me crazy.
My guy kudos to you bro this is getting the full scope of what Chicago is like much appreciated bro I got mad love for my brothers up there! GOD Bless!
6:27 Charlie I love your videos! I know they would take your advice a little heavier than coming from me. You should mention gun safety. I know sh*t is real where they're from. But, pointing a gun in your face to show off is dangerous AF. I suppose we lean that shit as we get older. 1. Never put your finger on the trigger unless you PLAN to pull it. 2. Treat every gun like it's loaded. Don't point it anywhere but the ground, for the most part. Be safe Peace! White kid form the burbs
It just baffles me how anyone could be proud of being from somewhere with the highest poverty and lowest educational opportunities... it’s like living in a bombed out trailer and heralding it as the Taj Mahal.
Its about the notoriety america is one of the best countries militarily speaking and we dont get pushed over easily its the same with them its a flex because they are tough
yea especially for one of the greatest countries. But I heard in Mozambique today extremists are beheading kids no older than 12 y.o, poor kids accidentally got left behind as they tried escaping with their families
@scrap bro Chicago they are shooting every day. Every day multiple people are shot every day people are killed there. More homicides in a month than there are days. Every year murders over 400.
It seems like they listen to the one in the yellow jacket, if he would just be smart enough to turn to the rest of them and say look man if we all get a good job at the same place just for a little bit and stack our money we can start a business but instead the system has set us all up to be greedy and only look out for ourselves
O block & 63rd ain't the worst area. The worst is likely in westside. But worst gang war is between all the killaward sets at war with each other and BBG & Gville. Those wars are bloody
I mean you could say that now but from 2014-2017-the deadliest war was hands down between 63rd and Oblock the whole city was watching them go at it like Godzilla vs King Kong 😂😭
@@j3ffro738 I don't know, I mean south side got Englewood, Auburn gresham, Roseland, South Shore and West Pullman, but Westside got Austin, West Garfield park, and North Lawndale, just those 3 neighborhoods on the west side alone have so many shootings and homicides and show up on the news more often than most southside neighborhoods. Englewood is definitely the worst neighborhood on the south side, but Austin and West Garfield Park are worse than Englewood.
