Welcome to Dorchester/ Roxbury | Boston Hood Vlog 

Facts

Facts

🎯

And now they tryna take the hood back smh they're buying houses for cheap and harassing black residents in our neighborhoods to push us out even further smh

That’s a fact 💯now we can’t even afford to live over there how ironic is that !?

It’s not gentrification it’s the Democrat party. Wake up

@@jodix1294 talking about wake up while still stuck in the mindset of the 2 party system is crazy. Bernie was the best candidate in years, just like rfk is the best current candidate. Both the democratic party and the republican party are corrupt and evil cuz all major politicians are pdf and blackmailed cuz of ep_ste_inandai_pac. Blackrock and vanguard are why the housing market is so inflated. Has nothing to do with party politics unless you wanna enlighten me.

@@jodix1294 it 100% is gentrification, heavily due to blackrock buying up all the houses with their 500 billion.

true!!

@@jasonwolfe3252 RU-vid taking my comment down once again, good to know I’m on the right side of history

😅 I think that would be a great idea as well ! Part 2 would be nice !

Probably was trying to avoid a situation

She definitely Did....classy/hood

@@1315Maverick ❤️Clazzikhoodchik 😉

@@anthonytaylor799 definitely not Boston at all. I think he was speaking on Mass as a whole at that point 💯

he clearly was speaking on the whole of massachusetts at that point

True

I lived in all four cities including ''Hartford, New Haven, East Elmhearst, And Miami dade partna, And bro man didn't lie. They all be holding it Down.

Ashmont!

That's a good thing.

Bruh there's mad knowledge. I'm talking bout ppls parents brothers uncles fathers etc. honestly the raids and the Rico changed all this new gen shid in like 96 . If feds didn't break it up no nggas would be relevant right now lol real talk

😂 it definitely was andI wouldn't change a single thing about my memories of growing up in Roxbury in the 90's ❤ Dorchester, Mattapahn , South End. Chelsea, Lynn, Lawrence, Springfield , Brockton, New Bedford ... forgive me if I didn't mention your city in Massachusetts but it was great growing up in Boston in the 90's ❤ !!

Lawrence hasn't changed much except now the dealers are off the streets cuz we don't have drug dealer mayor anymore

@@mikehikes710 🤣

So true.

@@blast4me754 wow, I couldn't agree more. I just had to say something to someone that commented below stating that I was exaggerating. Boston was very wild in the 90s but now in most places it's not the same and that isn't necessarily a bad thing at all.

Everyone's on social media and shaking in their boots 😂 bunch of scared mfs lol

It's def not a bad thing. They got all the junkies moved down to the Mile and shits cleaned up nice

💯💯💯

ED O 👉🏾

Y'all know the vibes

Do you know Nadine Tomas from Roxbury? We dated for 4 years.

Do you know Nadine Tomas from Roxbury? We dated for 4 years.

She’s exaggerating how bad Boston is as far as housing etc. Boston has crime but the desolation isn’t that deep.

@@TheBlessed9zChamber I definitely didn't exaggerate at all. I spoke on the truth of how it was then and now. And I'm not sure in what way you're using the word "desolation" but the city definitely doesn't give 1-2-or 3 fcks about the inner-city "the hoods" like that because if they did then much more would have been done to make it a more beautiful place. Boston isn't a poor city, they have the funds to use to fix the neighborhoods but they only fix what benefits THEM. There is absolutely no reason why Esmond St still looks the way it does after 20+ years. They only really care about places where college students and people that move here for work can live and rest their heads. They only really care about what looks good for tourists. That's why construction in other areas take forever. There's no reason why the streets is still fkd up and being worked on in Roxbury from Dudley and Blue Hill going up towards Grove Hall. There's no real urgency when it comes to the black and Latino neighborhoods. No exaggeration at all!

​@@FariX😮 say it LOUDER for those HATERS in the back can hear ❤ !!

@@TheBlessed9zChamberShe didn't exaggerate at all! I've live in Roxbury for 14 years now and heard, seen some ish go down all over different hoods in Boston. Best believe it goes down like that 💯

She was wrong. She was not a good person to talk to. She said white people don’t live in the hood…that’s crazy bc i grew up poor around other white people 💀 in the city too. She’s just yapping

Thank you!!!

I hate when people do that too. We have our neighborhooods, not cities.

FACTS

Grew up on that street

@@kauciontheboss fasho because I was one of dem girls 💯💯💯

@@FariX Kool. Lemme produce ya next album 🤷🏿‍♂️

No thank you everyone loved it 💯

I grew up down the hole born in 95 tho, you probably know my family. The Mcleans.

@@VarsityChris the Mcleans is OUR family ‼️

I was born in Roxbury St Joseph across from Washington Park. in the 70's and moved around Massachusetts throughout my life but ended back in Roxbury a few years ago and don't plan to move ! I how yall make another video but if NOT that's alright, this one was dope 😉 !

​@@kodakblowup Yall both did a wonderful job !! 💐💐🙌🏾🙋🏽‍♀️‼️

@@queendee8656 I want to vlog in Rhode Island next !

Upham’s Corner has always been lively

@@tl6752 I need someone from there I’m not too familiar with people

Columbia rd got a lot of Addicts now

Thank you 💜

S/o to Dorchester!! I live close to Blue Hill Ave

@@tmrt3001 needed to do an update !

26:00 definitely aint no rich neighborhood, bunch of dilapidated houses in blocks with cracked up stairways just like ny clown. And throughout the video she talks about the gentrification that has made these neighborhoods look nicer where black and brown folks have been having to move out cuz of housing prices increasing while white ppl are moving in. She's telling u how it was in the 90s, prior to gentrification. Get ya 2 braincell hating NY ahh outta here. Besides this is just the berry fr. They didnt show mattapan, the projects or the bricks and the section 8, or dorchester which imo is a much better representation of what the hood is really like in boston atleast in modern times. 90s is a different story as she explains in the video.

i'll admit that NY hoods is more city like and embodies the urban feel tho. u gotta understand boston roads and eveything were made by freaking pilgrims starting way way back and was never adjusted and thats why our roads are all crazy and ppl talk about boston drivers cuz its harder to drive here than other places. Urban NY is way more organized into cramped blocks. Like looking at a map of NY to Boston, boston got rotaries and weird turns and angles everywhere while NY looks like a grid of blocks

Things have changed a lot over the last 35 years.trust me you wouldn't have said that before

I didn't mean to say to Tombstone, I meant to say her memorial. Kodak Blowup added the link in the description so people can see it.

Roxbury also used to be heavily Irish. My Grandmother was born there.

Yup my mothers whole family is from over there

@TyeBlanco211 Facts 1❤ brutha

@@ashleypeterson340 logical like-minded people will always make something out of nothing. When you're dealing with people who work off emotion and ego, that thought is nothing but a thought.

@@lerr001jr7 no doubt 💯 I used live on Humboldt too for a little while. It was crazy times back then .

@lerr001jr7 Facts 💯 Crossbury/RobBury Death Chester and Murderpan

@@BBlanco_I remember Dorchester also being called war-chester

Lmaooooo never heard no one say that... boston never really had high violent crime like other cities have besides maybe the drug epidemic, but for urban areas in a city... yall bostonians actually have it really good

@@kingofhaiti123originally from Roxbury and moved to LA at the height of the crack/gang era and Boston was sizzling on an insane level in those times.

@@natking1u1z99 awesome memories thank you for sharing!

@@creamycazz1 that’s awesome to know that !

@@scottbrenham1341 yeah they are cleaning the city out right now , making it a bit easier to Rome the streets lol

I walked through Southside Chicago and nobody bothered me. If you aint into nothing then you dont got nothing to worry about. That goes for everywhere

@@Goofyassassin74 facts

Sonk

How is that a bad thing?

@@Brochacho617 Bro you ruining the joke. Im tryna clown boston for being sweet. No it aint a bad thing, but it's hard to believe there are hoods up there

@@sophiamcfadden7362 coool story 🫡

You are right! I've noticed that as well. Boston hoods don't look like the typical dilapidated hoods of other large cities. We have pockets of really shady areas.

Truthfully, as a major city we have a much lower crime rate. I lived on Rox for 10 years. It wasn't that bad. Like anywhere, you have to be careful. But no it's not bad like other hoods. I've had friends visit from Detroit, Chicago and NYC and they'd be like "This is the hood??? Nicest hood I've ever seen." Lol

Its only dangerous if your in the streets. I lived in Chicago for 3 years and never had a problem because I wasnt in the streets

There is no bad areas anymore. These hood rats talking about times long gone when people used to fight. Now it's just a random pushy shooting at someone every month or so otherwise everyone online and inside

@@louievee1251 most definitely will next time around !

​@@kodakblowup 1st , Thank you for wanting to make a video about our beautiful city ❤yall did a nice job ! Maybe if you make another video , you must come to Fort Hill in Roxbury to see the gorgeous historic neighborhood where the Black Jesus stands proudly for us and Lenox Projects has a mural of Dr.Martin L. King and his lovely wife Coretta ❤and then right around the corner from that is one of the original markets were you can find anything from around the world , Tropical Foods which is in Nubian Square formaly known as Dudley station. Yes. there's so much history in Boston and it's neighborhoods that you would have to probably have to dedicate a whole channel for it ❤ Thanks again 🙋🏽‍♀️ yall !!

@@brownbrown9554 most definitely I will try and capture as much historical land marks as I can next trip around !

No she didn’t. She was pretty wrong with most of the info

I was born there too.

Who's they?

@@tredeen97 The very same people

@@EslonioGuyerno what very same people? The statement you made is very vague, perhaps being more direct will help me understand.

@@Hurk617 wow thats some story ! Thank you for sharing that, I never knew about Whittier Projects before, that’s cool to know about the city !

Wow, me too, I moved from Clarkwood st. Mattapan to Charlotte, and I can't wait to move back.
