[theolympiclifter]

[nardo363636]

that would be cool if in like 10 years that kid who said he was the next kobe was some unreal college phenom getting ready to be the #1 draft pick and harolded as the next kobe bryant. And then people traced bakc this footage and released it to the public showing that he predicted it.

[phantomlord54]

Nothing against the man, but Kobe Bryant also didn't grow up in a gang-infested environment, which he seemed reluctant to mention

[Seattleboiiii]

he grew up in phili

[Crewaccount1]

I heard Bret Hart middle school is the best there was, the best there is and the best there ever will be.

[THABAYYOUB1TCH]

hahahahaahhahaha

[EditorLarenZ]

How come he doesn't go to a more dangerous place? South Central has turned soft to all these rap lovers who visit there to try and rep SC and to guys who want to see rappers around a lot. It's nothing like it was back when, Watts and South Central riots. It would never happen!

[nizo94]

Good we dont want it to!

[pjwuzhere3]

he plays for the LA Lakers, thats why he went to SC. If he played for the knicks hed go to a hood in NY, if he played for the Hawks hed go to a school in bankhead, etc

[BankOfLulz]

You're not very intelligient. South Central has become more dangerous ever since gangs have been getting more money. Instead of duece-dueces and AK-47s, gang members got Glock 40s and AR-15s.

[puertorico323760]

nah its still way dangerous dude inplus the places them rappers be n aint even south central

[erozpl01]

soft?? do u live in south central la shit its far from soft and there are like 5 rappers who rep sc and their legit name a famous rapper from compton or watts that is soft

[LomanBaba]

wtf is he doing on the hood?

[RWDSJ]

well one uhm his team is frm l.a and two hes not a pussy like you

[itsdagame]

good to see someone famous trying to make a difference.

[ashleyjanellefreeman]

I FREAKIN LOVE KOBE!!!!!!MVP BABII

[hoss1992]

i have a question

everywhere you hear SC LA is dangerous

but why they still let kids go to school in those dangerous areas??

dont they feel scared on the way home

[gio00016]

not every where in South Central LA is dangerouse you just need to know who to hang out with and who to avoid.

[nuthman18]

yea, it dont mean if u from compton, u gonna automatically gang bang

[kobetown8]

nothin will happen 2 u if ur not involved in any thing bad

[Willemims]

Not at all true, walking the streets past dark is very dangerous in SC.

[cdlsoldier]

stupidest comment i ever heard

[mst2chill]

now i don't know and i don't live there but i think if the kid's don't go to school and get no education there is no way for them to get out of south central

[Gocavs1990]

like dave chappelle said about getting out of the hood: "You have to learn you have to learn........how to rap or play basketball"

[Digalog]

haaah oh yeah i remembered that one. lmao

[ijustkeepitreal]

"...or sell crack thats your only choice"hahahaha

[erozpl01]

yea you do its not safe really anywhere but ur block thats the safest place and thats why these kids are gangbanging they are banging thier block becuase it helps keep them safer

[longbeachmustangkid]

because people will live there regardless and if people live there they need schools there.....thats the risk homie.....

[xxhyetxa818xx]

i luv and kobe and he will always be number one in my heart as a player and a person he is the best of the best better than micheal jordan better than evry1 but my question to him is why he only go to schools wid black kids why cant he com to scools in glendale like wilson junior high???????????

[Asian661]

oh hell yea! keep pushin that wood

[BONEDOMEZ]

you really cant wear orange and green fuck that shit!

[ariela34]

I WENT 2 THAT SCHOOL YA!!!!!!!!!!

[elhaitiana]

How come he cant go 2 a South Central Highschool like Dorsey or Crenshaw

[kdotman]

lol

[chuko818]

i agree. he really need to go to Crenshaw high. i believe they got #1 drop outs in LAUSD if not in the state. or is Jefferson High school #1? either way he needs to go to crenshahw high. as for Susan Miller (Dorsey Dons), its rough but not that ghetto. so maybe thats why he didnt go there.

[neverwasapunk16]

Funny thing is.. I dropped out of that school, but i go to usc now

[df93dt]

MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP

[hizay]

Kobe........went to the ghetto!!:-o!

[youngdave007]

das rite!! keep dem kids off da street.

[1DXZERO1]

[marianriverafanatic]

I never knew Kobe had a sense of humor because he is so serious on court....

KOBE #1 FOREVER

[borsche28]

[kamesh2k]

Good Job Kobe You are the best!

[albertabears]

Excellent work. Gangs taketh the hope, and Kobe bringeth it back.

[hasbun3]

[buckleup4KB24]

[dominax2006]

[2doorlover]

[ilovedallascowboys]

[snsbest]

Kobe great person

Kobe MVP

SNS

[ashrafabdeljaber]

lmfao kobe doing his homework???

[vanessiie]

...Bret Hart Middle school? As in Bret the Hitman?

[StylesBR]

No. Bret Hart is from cananda, he wouldn't have a school in LA

[SELACARTEL]

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa that was the first thing that came to my mind

[birh]

lmaooo why would a wrestling player have his own school?

[noobies123456789]

people ask u to join gangs? yea alot but i have to stick wit my skating career lol.

[ilovedallascowboys]

i thought that was hilarious he could do tricks tho... better than me lol (no balance)

[PhatalOne]

Ha ha did that woman yell out "Good ass question" at :47.Lol.

[Sofiya913]

she said good answer.. which still makes her a dumass

[Shawn510]

Was that a teacher saying that???? That'z L.A. for ya LOL

[slickid12]

lol kobe remember im the next u

[WBKSeventyTwo]

Excellent. That's why I feel Kobe must stay in L.A. He alone as a hero of Los Angeles can help keep kids dreams alive. Especially kids in places here like South Central and Compton. Great video!!!!! Kobe has always been aware of the communities around him. Great athlete and a Great person!

[tvfilm]

GOOD ANSWER --- uhm, QUESTION. LOL

[kingcrunck12]

i noticed somethin kobe always doin sumthin for his fans

[STmemba]

[BeLataka]

"kobe dont forget, I'm the next you!" hahaha

[jyokogawa]

Good for Kobe/

[wisdom1221]

actually it's called "South LA"

[cubicleBOB]

he's right you idiots

[lilxthugginx187]

the news media calls it south la for short but locals n law enforcement call it south central

[nuthman18]

actually they call it south LA cuz they are tryin to decrease the crime cuz south central sounds ghetto and south la doesn't

[elhaitiana]

South Central is officially South LA now dats why it confuses people where South Central really iz. But i still say South Central.

[nadertossoun]

Kobe rocks

[ktokyo]

nice kids. I feel bad for the environment they have to grow up in.

[radrico]

kobe's a cool guy... he should come to chicago.. right es? hehe ;]

[sexytimeplease]

[hzm]
