@@FreshhCutz bruh I played that whole album SO much. I was a senior in high school the day that CD came out. I skipped school to go cop the album at 8 AM then went to school with my discman and listened to it all day. Ahhhh the good ol days
@@MacGuffinExMachina some people like to sit back and judge everybody and every situation from the eyes that have only seen opportunity placed within grasp. You are correct, there is a system in place that sets out to keep certain people in a state of uncertainty. Educating themselves themselves on issues that surround an environment that is disportionate at every level, would show empathy towards other human beings. I understand going back before we go forward, but never dreamed we would go this far back.
1:24 Jefferson Parish/Orleans Parish Line. In Louisiana we don't have counties, we have Parishes...one of the easiest ways to tell a local from an out of towner!
Most of our neighborhoods are still in bad shape from Katrina. The mayor of N.O. and the city council lined there pockets with the money . I worked for them after my business got wiped out . They never paid us for 16 weeks because the feds had already given the city millions and they couldn't tell femme what they did with the money . THE politicians here said they had no way to keep track of the funds because they had no computers r electric .lol They told them to find a pencil and piece of paper .lmao The people suffered , we was cleaning debris and couldn't get paid . NEW Orleans is a great place to live . We need politicians that r not criminals. The mayor is in jail . More need to go . In New Orleans its not about what u know ,its who u know .
This is Stephanie Gleason in Austin Texas by way of New Orleans Louisiana aka the 17th Ward thank you so much from the bottom of my heart 💓 for that trip down memory lane say what you want about New Orleans honey there's nothing like it and you know it
I'm from GertTown and gave 14 yrs of my life to the state behind hound n ! Have u read Nola.com lately ? Have u heard bout all the shootings and killings going on in tha 0017th. It's a million places in the world datz less dangerous then New Orleans. The mentality hasn't changed at all. Our people are losing their lives and you think it's no better place then Nola ? New Orleans is 10x worst then Chi town, Detroit, St.Louis put together. We gotta change our mentality are we gonna continue to lose
I noticed several brand new cars in these neighborhoods. Guess not everyone in the hood are struggling and are just choosing to stay where they grew up
@Johnny Doeboy Usually its backwards anyways... poor people stay poor by buying nice cars, only a small minority of millionaires ever buy brand new vehicles. That's based on extensive surveying of millionaires.
Put n down $4k or $5k to get a new model really not hard at all. Income tax come, u can ride fly too. Those people in city hall dont give a fuck bout inner city New Orleans.
That's how it is in New Orleans. A lot of people choose to stay in the hoods because, that's what we know. There is no place like New Orleans. Most people trys to help the community. Try to make it better.
A little siding and paved roads goes A long way. My friend and her husband in Ypsilanti Mi, lived in a neighborhood of townhouses. Eventually they got condemned and tore down. Too many slum landlords letting renters tear stuff to hell. All they cared about was getting their rent each month. The home owner occupants like my friend and her husband, they had their townhouse all freshly painted, all new hardwood floors inside, new furniture. Back and front yards looked immaculate. It was a shame they got bulldozed down. There were only about twelve homes that were really bad. I know, I could have fixed these homes up. If you do right and watch your renters and not allow crap, you can maintain decent properties. You have to care though. I could fix these neighborhoods up. Offer a program where if the owner keeps their properties clean and kept up, they pay no taxes. Offer incentives to make these homes affordable and able to be kept decent looking and offer programs to help owners keep their homes electrical systems up to code and provide free smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
Not the worst looking part of new Orleans that for sure.it has a little grimeyness to it but not even in the top 10 worst looking hoods.i still enjoy all the videos.keep em coming.
I work for Honeywell who's sub contracting for Entergy now and we are working on gas meters and I've visited the Hollygrove St more times than I can count on my hands.The roads sucks out here no lie
I don't remember that video but that's not even Wayne's hood so idk why he would film a video there..thats Belfast street i grew up going to my grandmother's house down that street..waynes hood would be behind Charlie's car
@@garionbush5906 I just went back and watched the bring it back video..what part of the video are y'all talking about and which house? Cuz I'm not really seeing it
i live near Tulane U. about 15 minute walk from "apple and eagle brave heart bitch like the times are medieval". this video was NOT A GOOD IDEA. but props on the good content
After watching a number of these videos I can see how neighborhoods get gentrified, the property for each home is large by today standards. You cannot possibly purchase a home in a major metropolitan area with this amount of land any longer. Typically your choice is the suburbs if you want a home with a plot of land enough for your own front and back yard, unless you can fork out half a million or more for a newer home in any major city. These properties can be bought up so cheaply and converted to duplex/triplex then sold off for hundreds of thousands per unit making a tidy profit for investors. That is when the rents / property taxes start to spiral out of control driving people out of homes they lived in for years.
Those pot holes will fuck your alignment up , you got to go slow and when it rains a puddle can be a 4 foot hole that swallows your car and those streets flood quick as fuck with a little rain !
How disgraceful and unsafe the roads are there... The peoples carry on like this is actually OK. I guess the roads are an important part of the neglect in the area(s).
The only problem with that hood is the Damned broken up streets! My God... You could tear up the suspension of your car driving around there! The tax payers should demand they fix them streets! I wouldn't pay a dimes worth of taxes until they fix them!
The funniest part is that rich uptown people got the worst of the worst streets kinda feel bad but they really need to fix those streets in the 9th for those little school kids I almost fell to my death in a pothole running some Postmates lmao
I Wish He Was Playing Lil ' Wayne 's Song Call Tha Block is Hot in The Car That He Was Driving in When He Was in Lil ' Wayne 's Hood Call the 17th Ward Hollygrove in 504 New Orleans.
