where in the south bronx is this at?

[Gmancrap]

This is so real. They don't make documentaries like this anymore. Just rich hipsters with HD cameras covering bland, boring stories and filling them with Indie music.

[magiclard]

I like the lady she has got real spirit to keep on smiling in a place like that I hope they cleaned the whole place up. What happened to all theses people< any of them still around?

[yungyacht]

@magiclard Drugs, prison, violence and disease took alot of these ppl out.. The ones that are still around most of them are hanging on by a string, Very few that lived this lifestyle made it out ok and living comfortable.

[magiclard]

@yungyacht that is really sad Ive seen other movies onm the crack epidemic amd the heroin HIV epidemic the area has ben cleaned up now right?

[yungyacht]

@magiclard The place has drastically cleaned up due to gentrification and the hardwork of alot of neighborhood volunteers and programs. It also helps that the crack epidemic is over although not completely gone.

I live in Queens, about 40 mins from there.. NYC standup!!!!

[pagola]

@yungyacht salute...the real creators of hip hop

One thing about being in a gang, or committing crimes, or fighting, or stealing, drinking, or just hanging around doing nothing with your life, is that one day you'll get old. I think watching an old film like this really makes you realize that we all get old. These guys did a lot of bad stuff in their YOUTH but now they are old (if they lived long enough). They are too old to run from cops. Too old to scale buildings. Too old to fight. Try to improve your life while you are still young.

[boz8587]

[wednesdayyoung]

[mike4787000]

LMFAO! Heavy's got a P.A. system in his car! Now that's gangster!

Great documentary.

[dimviesel]

[bugstrut]

@Ramble1212 The only blonde I know of, that had Juice in da BX in those days, was CAP MPC. If you don't know who he is, watch a documentary called 'Style Wars', it's on here.

[Robygol89]

i haven't understood who is this guy with these hands full of golden rings...

[ghreps]

Big heavy a former club owner

[Robygol89]

club intended as gang?

[LTBL88]

an actual club, not just gang. a club as in a building

[KING5TORM1418]

ayo the bronx has changed a lot..BACK IN THE DAY i heard it was like a warzone..especially during this time and the 80's when crack was around..you wouldnt want to be in the bronx streets fuckin around. Nowadays you got wannabe bloods and crips..you got latin kings,neta,la familia..but the difference is they dont have no respect like these gangs had..now is about snitchin and bullshit

[jesiahbailey]

SOUTH BRONX is NOT like this anymore, maybe some small areas but nowhere like this

[dennatrol81]

At 1:59, 'when are you gonna be 16'...' we haven't decided yet man'. FUNNY:)

[combatescrima]

next month i will be in ny. hope for a german guy is also a nice place...south bronx

[falkon14]

SOUTH BRONX. no place like it.. you must see it at least once in your life to feel the energy there..

[ElectricHawk]

I was out there around this time last year. I saw the projects there and honestly, I was a little shook. It's not hard to see how a gang like the Black Spades could've thrived in a place like that.

[Nyclassic2006]

It has changed ALOT tho..in terms of people..and environment....but yeah you still get that sense.

[soulsyndicate]

anyone know the name of the song at 6:33? let me know please.

[PANZER299]

was that michelle obama bent over?

[ElectricHawk]

She's not that old, tool.

[SANxJONERO]

Wtf are you talking about? I thought your ass would have shut up by now & I meant a no good cop by pig.

[SANxJONERO]

I already read it backwards & it's snigger. Guess that's like snicker.

[SANxJONERO]

REGGINs & what does your name mean? You're a pig, or something?

[PANZER299]

AT LEAST THESE PUNKS ARE ALL DEAD NOW.

[ElectricHawk]

No they aren't.

[Clempt90]

how old are you ? 15 . When you gonna be 16 ? I havent decided ! . Fucking genuis kid ! Fuck the police .

[jjbiggs21]

i dont get it?
