  • Economics 101- if the product is cheaper AND better than your product, you will fail. It took Ford, GM and Chrysler 40 years to figure that out.

  • @YoungDreezee Strategic overpricing has been known to boost sales as well though ;) oc mostly just for less major investments than a new car.

  • looks like a place i'd like to live

  • This should be a learning lesson for us blacks.We deserve all the stupidity,hand me down education and high prices until we start trusting each other and do business with each other. yep, we allowed our people to be the laughing stock of the USA because we are not taking education seriously. After getting an education, buy a home! rates at 3.85% once you buy a home, then your whole mindset changes. my man once said"I aint blaming the man no more! Imma stack my money and open a store" and he did

  • @YoungDreezee You got that right, kind of. The only way ANYONE gets and keeps anything is to work for it. Unfortunately you still have that "us against them" mentality, if you think that 12% of the population can live without the rest, you are doomed to continue along as you have. The real problem is that Blacks don't trust Whites and attack them despite everything they try to do to atone, and at some point Whites just get fed up and turn their backs on what is nothing more than racism.

  • @siuwed - do you think cities are the only areas with problems? rich people are having same issues of foreclosure, and unemployment (and Pedophilia / Sex Trade). Foreclosure hit Lenny Dykstra, Nicolas Cage, just to name a few. It doesnt have anything to do with racism, it never did. The problem is mainly we dont do enough business with each other. As soon as we get paid, we are spending money outside of our community. Its not changing hands within our race.

  • @YoungDreezee See the number one rated comment on this video, that's what I am trying to tell you. Detroit is a RACE problem, which is what caused the economic problems.

  • i love amateur videos like this that just take footage of the streets of an american city. also, the rap isn't totally annoying. although you don't see it too much in this vid, it's amazing just how much architectural wonders detroit had/has. i vacillate between saying we are f*$d as a country and saying we're down so low now nowhere to go but up . . . yeah, we could get lower.

  • Detroit city isn't awful. It's Eastpointe that's really bad.

  • why has my city turned into SHIT! you know why because no opne cares!!!

  • @bud9613 globalization + unions * niggas = detroit

  • what song is this?

  • The new climates even changed the texture of hair. Eventually everyone evolved. We all shit brown, bleed red, and sweat. We all share the same fate, we will all die. So technically all of us come from Africa. How ignorent do you sound.

  • funny, the black people in Canada aint fuckin nuthing up...you think maybe its your shitty country?

  • @MTLbigJ theres no moolie like an american moolie

  • @MTLbigJ lmao come to toronto.

  • @dalihendrix toronto aint shit man ive been everywhere...montreal is way more hood than toronoto. what you gonna tell me jane and finch, Scarborough, and your so called hoods...just cuz kardinal and drake came doesnt mean its hood

  • @MTLbigJ I am talking murder. the murder rate is now high compared to twenty years ago thanks to the black influx

  • soon the USA will be over!!! 

  • Thats the American system, you have the rich WASPS and Jews in control, they keep the minorities agaonst each other and down.

  • @FGalaxie lie, the asians do well own their own business kids in college. never a scary place around asian communitys

  • oh my god.

    why are there so many racists on this page?

  • @jtbl78 Because idiots infect everything.

  • @jtbl78 Probably because many of the racist posters are from the surrounding suburbs of Detroit. Unfortunately some of the black posters find it hard to ignore these morons, I don't know why, to me it's like ignoring a fly. Some of the most racist fucked up in the head white people you will ever meet in your lifetime live in Detroit's surrounding suburbs. On the flip side, some of the coolest white people I know live in midtown Detroit. However, none of them are from Michigan though.

  • @jtbl78 probably because cities like detroit and oakland exemplify exactly what happens when black people are in charge.

  • you got temptations, eminem, xzibit, jdilla , madonna & della reese

  • Heh..D isn't as bad as people say they never lived there so they have no right to say its a the worst palce to live.

  • looks like gary indiana to me!

  • @hifijohn looks like any influx of blacks

  • song?plz?

  • yes Ann Arbor has graffiti like Detroit

  • song name please?

  • All true statements. But, The city of Detroit will rise again! Its a process. Re-invention.

    It is projected that just as detroit was the fastest dying city (people moving out to find work), It will be the fastest growing city! 313, I'm coming back! Somebody need to look at the "boblo island" concept. That was a great Idea!

  • @teehud313 i dont know i seen many small ghost town in michigan

  • If a ghost town took a shit...it would be Detroit.

  • Detroit Destroit

  • the dems just rant this place into the fucking dirt

  • Welcome to the white Liberals' vision for your life.

  • U$A Illuminati

  • blacks destroy everything they are parasites, they self destruct, you think its a coincidence that a city outside of detroit that is not black is safe and nice? blacks are helpless and unresponsible, always blaming the white man, always playing the race card, its ok to discriminate against whites but never the other way around.

  • @odo2423 Hm lets think, Atlanta is a mostly as you say a "Black City" it is very nice for the most part not in a shadow of what detroit is. I say your Heart is Black without compassion incapable of love. the truth is that Industry has caused this. Back in the past there were thousands of jobs where you didnt need education, the people of Detroit that settled here flocked to find these jobs now we are in the fallout of what happens when industry dries up.

  • @Bigblackdacoolkat atlanta is like 50% black, not like 90% like detroit.

  • @Bigblackdacoolkat Bullshit. Detroit was a prosperous city until the Race Riots of 1967. When you attack the very people who work hard and provide jobs and clean safe neighborhoods for you and chase them away, then what will you have left? Detroit is what you have left. I lived there in the 70's and 80's, I know the truth. When your employees cannot safely live and raise their kids close to your company, you move it. It's up to the people of Detroit to clean it up, not the Government.

  • @siuwed the freaken mitary bombed the city then

  • @siuwed - Actually, Japan and Germany were making cars much more efficient than America starting in the 70's when gas prices spiked (sounds familiar?). Packard tried to tell Ford and GM to make a better quality car and instead they got together and drove Packard out of business. Americans where buying more foreign cars than domestic in the 1980's like 3 to 1. They were cheaper and more reliable. Compare the 1989 Taurus to the 1989 Accord. Enough said

  • @YoungDreezee So what's the excuse for all the other cities in America? Enough said.

  • @siuwed Right! Amen!

  • grand river av, looks pretty much like it did 25 years ago, not the best but not to bad.

  • The problem with Detroit is that they've been playing a LARP version of GTA there for almost half a century. It actually looks surprisingly good, considering.

  • pause 2:51 lol nice place

  • OK,LET ME GET STARTED,DETROIT IS THA REAL HOOD,REAL SHIT,BUT THIS CITY SUKS 2 LIVE IN,NIGGA NO WORK,LIMITED FEMALES,CRAKFIENDS N BUMS EVERYWHERE,ITS GARBAGE AS FUK,STAY AWAY FROM THA D,ITS GUTTER

  • @wheyproteinaddicts their's more females in detroit then males.

  • @sk8forlife90 the male are dying or in prison

  • DUUUUUUUUDE DETROIT IS SOOOOOO FUCKED UP! 2-3 CARS PER MINUTE! WTF!?

  • Comment removed

  • Detroit is a preview of what the entire U.S. will look like in about 20-30 years from now.

  • @menkeechang

    And the Kikes will sit in their gated communities, gloating, while being protected by race-traitor white and mud armed thugs! Fuck IsraHELL too!

  • The good thing about Detroit is that you can get to where you're going pretty fast and don't have to sit in traffic much.

  • i miss detroit

  • This is Hardcore !! :)

    Thumb UP !

  • what we need to do is pickup a piece of paper. Try. Detroit loves you!

  • This is where I got taken when I was car Jacked Scary

  • Does detroit have luv foe da East Coast. Cause im from da bronx.

  • You watch Detroit will start to decrease even more in population and it will return to farm land.

  • Comment removed

  • @bayabaj there was an america before black or white people. you like to talk shit but you dont check yourself out.

  • @externalpower you justice on stolen land

  • @goodozog indeed I do justice on all lands. the strong win the weak lose. thats nature.

  • @externalpower pick on people your own size cowards lol: for example i never fight women

  • @goodozog give in if you want. I have endless truth to educate you with.

  • @bayabaj lmao black never invented anything never built anything and not medicine genuis or able to have a language or laws to make a civil society. blacks where slaves picking cotton not responsible for the design of building cities trains planes computers electricity...dig nothing but slaves for a few southern states.

  • @Antonioni123 I live in southern California and Never Imagine that Detroit really look like this. I thought it was just a stereotype.

  • @Antonioni123 you blame the governments neglected the blacks . remember black people were powerless

  • @Antonioni123 truth but you will be called racist.

    asians have own homes kids in collrge they are manority but are not dangerous communitys

  • What song is playing ?

  • IM FROM DETROIT ITS A NICE PLACE

  • @sfordgg it WAS a nice place.

  • @sfordgg is that your driveby voice?

  • IM FROM THE WEST SIDE FUCK YALL

  • Forget Detroit, niggas like u always whine when somebody gets shot but then you influence the violence, you're contradicting yourself. Realize and get your head out ur butt

  • @teelistrill exactly true the blacks are racist and violent

  • @dalihendrix which is why i just farted and i'm glad it just blew straight out my BUTTHOLE!!!

  • where is robocop to clean this detroit shitty

  • im not racist but african americans should be thankful that there ancestors were brought to america by white ppl.

  • my father was from Pleasantridge Michigan. When the depression hit, they lost their farm. My grandmother chopped up her expensive bedroom furniture because she couldn't fit it in the truck and take it with them. White people suffered just as much as any other race. They all struggled. The father and oldest brother Frank, died long term illness. They then headed out to California. We are now headed back to a THIRD WORLD NATION STATUS, THANKS A HELL OF A LOT.

  • True enough, but are you saying that every black person is African? If so, then that's rediculous. Theroetically, I'm black - but I'm Dominican.

  • Fuck you white people have fucked up the world and spread evil wherever they go......Africans and any other people would have been better off if anglo saxons, would have stayed the fuck in Europe moron...

  • Fuck u dirty W.O.G.S., im from Europe so cant u stay the fuck out ov there.

    The only good things blacks do is give each other fuckin AIDS.

  • @borat443 spread evil? the white boy have the best lifestyle and inventions anywhere. any that are not white except asian controlled are shit hole

  • WOW

    American so richest country right and this city look like a SWAMP

    what a joke

  • I think Saudi Arabia is richer.

  • Haha I think there the one of the world richest

  • So what you're saying is spend billions on rebuilding all of Detroit and then just watch the people destroy it all over again, with billions lost for no reason.

    You should think before you post stupid shit like what you just did.

  • What a pit!!! Here in New Orleans, we have had corrupt "liberal" politicians form decades, yet our avenues look NOTHING like this disaster!!! Come on down, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

  • Starlet, you should be thanking the white man for bringing you over here. Have you ever been to Africa??? Believe me its a shithole. If it was'nt for the whites, you would be sitting by the roadside, with a big, extended belly, begging for a glass of milk. You owe everything to us. Dont forget that. You wanna go back to Africa??? Your dumber than I thought.

  • Sitting by the side of the road? Probably not. Had white man not intervened, it would be even money (at least) that Africa would be a prosperous, advanced place vs a lush forest filled with people who hunt and gather vs a shithole.

  • and those Africans would have nothing to do with starlet just because she is black.

    Over there its the tribe you belong to that counts.

    They can pick out a black american a mile away.

  • ya for sure frankee, when they dont get their way they fuck up there own city??? and then bitch why they live in poverty, and they dont take care of shit, and if anyone comments back on this, i dont care what u have to say its the truth and get over it.

  • true that

    I will cosign on that post to big Vinnie

  • Negroes rioted, and burned down their own city in 1967. Whites left, and look at what those wonderful, intelligent, moral, honest, hard-working race of coloreds did to destroy an American powerhouse. Racial equality anyone?

  • very well said

  • You don't seem to be happy here in "America", do you, Lateesha? Tell you what; I'll not only buy you a boat ticket (one way, of course) to the Congo, but I'll send you some walking around money after you get there. Deal?

  • Lateesha? Is that what you think of every black person's name here in the US. LOL, hahaha if you only knew who I really was. You are the stereo type of a narrow minded "American", who I am truly ashame of. By the statement that has just came out of your mouth, you are bluntly ignorant.

    Oh, and by the way, If you are a Conservative Republican..........You are making that party look  bad. Especially on the true good hearted Conserv. who are trying to make America strong under Christ.

  • American "Christianity" is a load of rubbish.

  • I think maybe I can throw in a couple of jars of mayo and some balogna for the trip.

  • Not after we have worked for free and helped to build this thing....but IT is something you can do...you could learn to speak equally for all ppl. See it was your type of attitude that has got us into this mess in the first place. We are all equal and have the same needs. You're no closer to God than I am!!! and real men take responsibility when they have done wrong. You know the act in the past and the covert acts of today are very wrong.

  • the reason most blacks were in Detroit in the first place was because the automakers were EOE employers and would hire them!

  • Thanks for speaking the truth...for those who have historically done the injustices to others, It must be so hard for you to look at the horrible acts that you've perpetrated on innocent ppl. There is no way or no how anyone could justify the way that blks have been treated in this country since the beginning. and believe me the wrong doers know it too. Hurts to see yourself for what you are. and for all that has been done, still no apology. Now, What do you think God will say?

  • @starletdempsy excuses and horshit views also lies. the asians do well in america any asian community is a safe desireable place. asians come here can not even speak the language twenty years later the asian owns their own business ansd kids are in collrge. asians dont burn down others the asians are not violent racist retared. the asians are never called dumb, stereotypes are based on some truth. the stereotype for the black and asian are very different because of truth.

  • Comment removed

  • and they teach in german schools that after the riots america did not have what it took to rebuilt the city.

  • Sadly, the German schools are correct. We blew it all on Korea, Vietnam, the Cold War, Iraq, AfPak, etc.

  • No they are not!!

    when business revenue dies

    businesses close down and people move to greener pastures.

    there is no reason to rebuilt this city because there is no reason to.

    cities follow money and jobs.

    cities with no jobs and become ghost towns like this one.

    No city or town is entitled to exist for its own sake.

  • I was not referring to businesses in that post! I was refgerring to misplaced priorities by our own Government, who would rather spend money on FOREIGN wars and the rebuilding of FOREIGN nations instead of looking after our own people, and yes, looking after our businesses especially the small ones.

  • fuck you ppl alwayz sayin shit like burn detroit down...ugh kill yourself

  • There isnt even hookers walking around let alone average people, man just drop a bomb on the city already

  • this is the future of every american city. all the companies will leave you for the lowest bidder. companies will be needing bailouts for ever because they all suck. lowest bidders lowlifes.

  • With how much we are in debt and soon to be in more debt from socialist obama we wouldnt be able to give them bailouts

    i think there were like 7-9 banks that went under this year all asked for bailouts didnt get it so lets hope it stays that way

  • New Light Nursing Home represent!!!!

  • I grew up in Grand Rapids too.  It's nowhere near as bad as Detroit, but I moved to Texas for work also

  • I hope someday America will be great again. This is so sad. I grew up in Grand Rapids, MI and I wish I could live there cause that's where my family and friends are, but I can't find work so I had to move to TX.

  • Gotta Love the Westside!

  • Burn it all down! and block off the roads. Get these fuckin' thugs into one area and shoot em all.

  • it aint cuz of the thugs....its bcuz of the economy....people built the houses there and then things went to shit and neither they or the city could afford to take care of or repair the houses....and they still cant....and thats what happened. haha sad aint it?

  • well i am white and bottom line if u look like some racist honkey in detroit hood...u prolly gonna get fucked with...but if u act calm collective ull be fine....most a tha time lol

  • Yeah. I see a few a couple tough-looking whites try walking through lower Gratiot, near place like Woodlawn and McDougall.

  • I thought the title reffered to Grand River Road. That place is pretty...screwy lulz.

  • my last ford came from every country but America- my dodge pick up is from Mexico...

    my x husbands crack came from nowhere else but Detroit....

  • the song is 'astronomy' by Black Star

  • 0mg best cruisin track i heard in a long time Mos Def Talib ALL DAY

  • as a kid growing up in n/w Detroit, I remember adults all saying "if the niggers get west of wyoming, the city is doomed",,,ok, so they were bigots.

    But, damn it they were right...

  • Never occurred to you that it's the TAX BASE LEAVING that doomed the city? Money's not black or white, it's green. Right now, it's mainly middle-class African Americans leaving the city. Same effect.

  • you have the cart before the horse...as soon as the fires were out in the 60's, your damn right the "Tax base" left...

    Yes it's sad to see my Hometown die.

    A persons skin color was NEVER important to me.

    arn't you tired of Dems destroying a once great city?, There is nothing to lose with electing a Conservative

  • It does not matter anymore. Detroit is long gone. Unless Industry comes back people will keep leaving Detroit and seek jobs elsewhere. It's not blacks, whites, republicans or democrats, it's globalization. And whether we want it or not Corporations will keep moving REAL economy out of US. Republicans had 8 years to do something about it. Did they? No, and they will not because they are just as corrupt as their dem rivals. Take a good look at Detroit. We are looking at future of US.

  • It might not have happened if JFK had survivied.

  • Yea well outsourcing at its best. Where did all the jobs go? Mexico, China, Canada?

  • Well i see a Burger King at 18 sec. and we just had a Burger King close in North Vancouver and Swiss Chalet Chicken, Noodlemakers, lots more ... no jobs come north of 49 .. ask DrFunky4 in Niagara Falls.

  • @ghostenders who are you i wish you were my best friend because you could not be more right i just wish people like us could do something

  • @ghostenders YOU ARE AN IDIOT. I grew up in Detroit and since the 60's democrats have been runnin the joint, gettin bailouts since the 60's and unions getting more and more benefits lead to a complete dependence on the gov't, the democrats give out welfare checks constantly, and people dont look to improve their way of life because of their dependence. This has problem has nothing to do with bush, bush did not bail out the company, and that was the right thing to do, the city needs discipline.

  • @ghostenders Yes, you're correct! We're living in an Oligarchy, which is becoming Fascist!

  • @ghostenders Finally somneone's right. Hit nthe nail right on the head buddy.

  • @DammitDrag First of all you sound dumb because black people have contributed a lot to the world as far as inventions and discoveries. 2nd of all we are all human and if you pay attention to science you would know that civilization started in Africa. They found a skeleton even older than the lucy called the ardi in ethiopia. Blacks were the first on earth and they moved around to hunt and thousands of years exposed to a different climate is why there are so many different skin shades.

  • @hnymooner Is Wyoming a major street in Detroit?

  • @hnymooner

    you're just as much as a bigot as them...in the 1920's, Detroit, like Chicago, had some of the worst crime and violence in the country and most of that was committed by whites...your grandparents probably won't tell you about that, but it's true.

  • @wowzer107 the bootleg type crime and mob organized crime was not nigger senseless type crime. the blacks had no purpose other than gang land stupidity plain destruction and mass murder. as like any community black today highest murder rates . rediculous really senseless nigger life.

  • God bless america

  • People who rioted in '67 got what they wanted. Now they still complain.

  • So true, I lived in Brightmoor (N.W. Detroit) in the sixties and seventies and the city only got worse! What a shame.

  • I used to hang out in Brightmoor in the early '70s. Eliza Howell park was where we would score our drugs. Now the cops are afraid to go in there. Last year they pulled 63 stolen/abandoned cars out of the woods by the creek.

  • should try reading the info for this video. yes it's grand river. nice vid.

  • is dat Grand River he ridin on?

  • really nice song

  • kweli and mos def! good song.

  • detroit got more crazy ass places then that, ur in a suburb, go to the east side

  • Hey, but the streets are in goodshape. No potholes and painted well. That must be from federal money.
