MEEK, LEFT HIM DEAD IN THE COURTYARD 

People don't understand the concept of not dealing with dudes that violate your moral codes. I've cut people off I've known my entire life.

If you never cut ppl off, that means you’re a yes man.

Isnt it funny how you can listen to jake talk about anything and how he speaks makes it interesting. He could tell you a story about him on a school bus going to school and I'm deer in headlights listening

Man, your doing good. Flossing with a new hat, rocking a fresh chain... Tons of subscribers... Im a firm believer that good things happen to good people. It sounds like you really have turned your life around, your a positive role model. Keep up the good work...

Dude is fucking real like one of kind I appreciate you brah I'm currently living in my car I'm not blaming anybody but myself for trusting people and I can say your videos has gotten me threw this horrible month. It shows God can take you threw any storm and bring you out to a better situation. I truly do hope God blessed your channel man

You snitched and still got 27 years 😂 You might not even make it to 5 🤦‍♂️ they gonna be on your ass

Your younger than me but walked alot of the same paths, I hear truth in your words and wisdom in how you speak, I have more respect for you than for 99% of people, I'm a huge fan of yours and your videos help me deal with leftover issues I have from incarceration like you do

One of the best narrators I’ve ever seen on RU-vid, I usually get tired of peoples voices real quick but yours is soothing and doesn’t sound monotone like everyone else. It’s like you’re speaking to us in person instead of teaching us like a lazy high school teacher

You have so much wisdom for such a young man. U really have a talent as a content creator. Much luv to you and everyone. ❤❤❤

Hey jake I absolutely love your videos, I’m in recovery and I’ve got my life back on track. Every time I feel my mind thinking about the “good ol’ days” I watch your videos and it brings me back to reality. That life is fucked and ain’t worth living. They should show your videos to high schoolers it would change the way they think.

Bro, I can tell you have a really good heart... You always speak on times where you say you could have done better. You talk about how you could have been a better influence on people and that time when you feel like you had something to do with your friend's mom's overdose. Hold your head up. You can rest easy now, knowing how far you've come. You got this man.

Haven't been locked up since 2010 5 stay up stay blessed bro

This is all truth. Thank you for sharing your stories bro. And great message as well, big facts 💯

Bruh my headset was turned all the way up & I had just turned it on. That clap almost knocked me out my damn chair.

It's good to see you using your freedom to educate people on what the streets are really like. I'm all about supporting people trying to do better and be better. Salute to the real ones.

Man I love your videos. Glad your doin good. Its great that you are using your stories to show people that there is always a better way of dealing with life than doin shit thats gonna land you in prison. Much respect my friend.

Bro I'm from Australia!! Ive been watching from day one!! I watched u on 23n1 an as soon as u started your shit I've been hooked. Keep doin this shit bro!!

Damn this is a good one. Please young jit gangstas please listen. Prison isn't where you wanna be. Thanks Jake for putting this out there.

This dude has come so far and matured so much. Love seeing that. Keep it up bro.

Im glad i found these prison channels been in and outta jail it makes me think twice about what im doing so i dont go up the road thanks jake keep it up

Watching your channel has been helping me to keep it together honestly. I’ve been to jail plenty not proud. Never wanted to go to prison though. I don’t always think though and lately I’ve been struggling. But watching this has been helping. It’s crazy what anger could make someone do. Especially when a females involved. Had to realize I don’t need my life to end cuz I still have so much life in front of me.

I been fucking with you since day 1. This is the type of shit these youngsters need to see man. They're gunning each other down because they're scared of their role models. You just spit facts & it's moving & I know you feel this deeply bro. Hold your head high. It'a admirable that you realize the truth & put it on front street.

My g I see your subs going all the way up day by day! It makes me happy to see you putting in that work getting those reps in...eventually all this shot will pay off not only monetarily but more so all the game you've payed forward to your fellow humans...gang or no gang prison or no prison. game is game! You got it my g💪🏽

Just made my day bro have a good day bro be safe out there love and respect from San Antonio Texas just got to work 💯👍😎🔥

3:25... made perfect sense. You’re pretty intelligent and I’m sure you can read people hella good. I used to always pick out the ones who weren’t gonna jump you but they felt more confident when they homies around

Straight facts in this video , when my friend got arrested for car hopping there was so many ppl that were reposting his mugshot say free him this and that, I never posted him I was always getting calls from him, I put money on his books and everything, know who your true friends are frfr

My moms always told me, "A friend is a dollar in the pocket, they come an go!"

“If u have to question them. Find u some new friends.” That’s real. Kid listen up 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I could listen to James voice all the time telling stories, he could tell me my cat or dog just died and I’d just be like “damn what else happened” just so he could keep talking 😂🤘🏼

I get off work at 6 every morning so your timing is always perfect!

You are in my thoughts and prayers ❤️ it hurts to have to cut someone out of our lives

I wish nothing but success for dude he seen things he can eloquently put into words

I appreciate your honesty. We need more like you to tell the truth.

I'm very proud of u .. You gave it ur hole heart an the truth of how life 95% of people doesn't care when u need someone there for you like us who do care IV never been to jail but my hole family, brother an sisters an hole rest of the family left .. They cut me out when are mother had passed away because of my bro liein to them all telling I killed her back in 2016 I now im goin thr health problems an its got me in bad shape . u make a person feel care about so much thank u for feelin I needed it im very scared IV went down hill like 50% in 2 years. Ps hope have the best life u can have ur a really good person

Great story 🙌🏽With valuable lesson of who is real and fake that is in your circle

1090 jake u one of the lucky ones ye u had to go to jail but u come home sorted u and family out respect brother from Middlesbrough England

We see you Jake keep doing you bro and shining light on these issues much respect 👉💯🇬🇧

Jake, I did 18 years in TX. Been home 4 years. I have been looking at your videos and the truth is, people don’t understand that prison is a totally different world.

You speaking facts bout bro , he was cool calm and laid back 💯 I remember you in the hall way you came along way bro keep putting on for the city and teaching people valuable life lessons and experiences .

You need more views my man your videos are so underrated they are one of the best out here in youtube no cap 🧢. Love the videos keep doing you💪🏼 much love

Ey man I shut off every single person that wasn't bringing positivity. Friendships of 10 plus years....really man the best move I've ever made. It takes one person to help lead you down a self destructive path. Just you alone can kill any type of future for you. We still tend to keep people around us that we know aren't good for our own survival. To LIVE life and not just scrape by.

Being from the streets myself. Things like this story happen quite often . Great video Jake, thanks! 💯

I bungout with a lot of people tbat wherent the greatest. Wish i had these videos 10 yrs ago lol. Ive since then moved away and changed my life man and your videos just reinforce that. Thanks for being so real with no bullshit mixed in bro respect.

Normal people when they tell a story: bla bla bla Jake telling a story: “gun noise” 🤣🤣🤣

I appreciate u bro 💯 end of sentence thank god you came home

Word. Getting crossed by a friend is always the worst. You expect it from other people. Nothing worse than betrayal.

It reminds me of the sayings "you're judged by who you hang around with" and "you fly with the crows, you get shot with the crows". Very true sayings bro.

Like I said before.. there's no loyalty in this game, BUT I don't believe in snitching when you are 100 percent involved in the crime you committing. Take it like a man.. just like the man you thought you was, when committed the crime! You don't snitch on your partner!

You gotta know when to drop a mf sometimes if it compromises your character having them around, coz it only leads to trouble over time.

The Quality from the first video to now is crazy . Good shit

Damn meek was my nigga. too always smiling.had one of the hardest leg tats I seen. I was blowed when he got bammed, was a good dude

Takes a real man to admit to his wrongs stay keeping it 💯

Dam kinda new to jake,Jake, 10 vids watched.by far touched by this one.live it don't give it.shout out jake!#wise words

Just watched another one. Great message. Sad thing is how many young ones gonna learn that the hard way. I did a bullet and from my own experience and wat i saw a few times its just like u said. Your blessed if u have 1 or 2 people stand w you. Real friends want u to do good n be good. A continuing circle that wont stop. Ty for your story n message. You should give speeches to youngins in schools. Youd get and keep their attention real quick

I’ve only done 8 days in jail in stark county Ohio. I did serve a little over two years in Bolivia. Lucky for me I am Spanish speaking. My sentence was actually for 39 years, but it’s all based on money there. I did just fine because I had a bit of money and was able to literally “buy out” of my sentence after I came up with enough feria. I keep rockin with ya bro!!!

Great Content Bro American Justice System is the worst of the worst here in Germany its like hundred years in front of yours , hope it will change soon Regards from 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪

I stay to myself , have a few good friends , been there done that learned from it , I spend all my time with my 4 year son being the dad I never had , no way in hell would I put myself in the position be getting locked up again, my family means too much to me they need me too much I got my wife and kids , my rescue animals , unless some out of the ordinary drama pops off I wont be going back , been free since 2011 , wrapped my bid at souza , they tried engaging me in a fight on the morning I was released what kind of a human being does that and I've never even had a problem with the cop who started a fight with me

Tampa is wild! I get sent from the Bronx to live in Tampa for 5 years for getting into trouble in the Bronx! I went to memorial middle school and Hillsborough high school! I ended up getting sent back to the Bronx for all the wild shit I was getting into down there! I had some real battles down there!

Love from Amsterdam! Always crazy to hear your stories bro. He would have done a 2 year sentence max here in Holland ;p.... You guys have a crazy prison system

Aint your fault fam. You just feel compassion for someone that mattered to you. That's just being a good human and a better FRIEND

Watching all his vds gunna get me to talk like him. Nun but support and luck to u✌🏽

“How can two walk together unless they are agreed?” Very important bible quote, know when to cut ur losses, & luv from a far!!!!

Salute 1090. LOVE is love. Keep doing you

You already know you real for dropping this brother 💯💯💯💯💯

Much luv bro I like your content stay keeping it real and doing what your doing coming from Fresno CA

I lived on 131st in Avalon gardens right before the “quick stop” store - this happened across the street from the store when I lived there - I heard the shots - only reason they did it there is because 15th has “shot spotters” from Fletcher to Fowler 💯💯💯💯💯

Aye Jake stay blessed brotha💯

Man that clap and double pound after are loud AF lol them hands been to WAR 😂😂😂💪💪💪

You see who your real friends are in your darkest times it's easy for people to say they're your friend when your doing good an at the top The people that are there for the good times as well as the bad times are you real friends the ones that are gone during the bad times and only around for the good times are not your real friends

Man I’ve had to cut day 1s off…sometimes harder than others, but if it has to be done, that how it is. Most people cut themselves off by their actions. The only thing to do is fall back.

It’s a hard thing to find out your closest friends are rats, I used to eat and chill with my boy in the feds and found out he was hot. It’s sad to know the consequences but as a man of morals and standards it was easy to punish him.. I feel you bro..

I love how your weight seems to go up in sync with your subscriber count. Eat and drink well, you earned it!

Jakes pauses are just intense you can tell the conviction

Aye jake not gon lie ever since you got out you look like that RU-vid money been feeding you good🤣 been here since the lockdown interview keep it up🎯

Been locked up several times and got my life together 4 yrs ago.. your solid roadie keep up the videos

You a real dude..stay up..stay..and keep grindin..💯💪

Meanwhile they working at checker's serving Burger's and fries 😂🍟🍔. This is spot on

smart smart smart man,a person can get a lot from your experiences,an people you've dealt with

Much love bro 💯

Bruh u steady climb wit dem numbers much love from Daytona beach

I’m from Tallahassee bro, I be thinking about you everyday when I pass by Lancaster and ACI.

We call this peer pressure and that shits real

Having to question yourself about a friendship is the most conditional state of mind you can solidly ask yourself

Your a great story teller big up💯

When i went to prison the only people who wrote or sent money was my parents, brother and my girl. Found out real quick how your friends are only friends when you can do something for them.

Dam that was the most realest shit ever and I’ve done time in the military I know brotherhood but dam..

Hey Bro that was a good story. Much respect my Brother

I hear ya J ...dude done lost his mind smh ok kool be safe ✌️

Keep doing what you're doing Jake!!!

Props for keeping 100 even when comes your own.

Sheesh he snitched and still caught 27 he should've kept his mouth shut smh

Waz up Jake your a good dude man Real Solid. I appreciate you steppin up now not when 55 and washed up now you regret and gonna tell all the little homies it's wrong etc... Your cool calm collect and I respect a smart warrior like you Jake keep pushin Brother Ignore the trools they got no feelings. I use to be one now I use tools like your channel to humble up and be good.

Jake I’ve been in the hospital a lot because of problems with my daughter (I’m pregnant) & honestly everytime I see your videos pop up they make me smile & even if it’s just 20 minutes, it’s 20 mins I can forget about what’s going on in reality & focus on your stories. Thank you for your content. 💯 much love ❤️..

I doubt you'll see this, I don't know what it is but you inspire me. You speak and I listen. I'm not even into that type of lifestyle. I was at one time, back when I was a young stupid shit. 12 yrs old on probation, house arrest, bout to be sent away and thankfully I didn't go down that path. Guess I had ppl that didnt give up on me. I'm now an engineer for a fortune 100 company but you still speak to me. I bet you have a lot more followers than the type of ppl you may think are listening. You are intelligent, very well spoken. Like me, I wonder how your younger years would have went if no one gave up on you. Keep doing you. I'm a fan. I truly hope you're happy and have everything you want in life now. Take care.
