[ohioflyer937]

fake

[elwerito]

you guys are quick to judge but unless u walked a mile in his shoes ,.! stfu

[CashStaCCz]

Fuc harlem

[nicoleayanna]

ok...this video was really a lot of fun to watch !!!



[ofSaturday]

I'm confused about why the two dudes dont talk to one another and why there are shift changes. I am not at all unfamiliar with hustling, but what the fuck is this?

[deabrea100]

get dat money!!!!!!

[Tcbmap]

Obama save us? What a pathetic joke. Save yourselves and live like civilized human beings for a change. You don`t need someone to save you. Help yourselves first. Everything else will fall into place.

[TheNewAlias]

lol why did that kid leave without saying bye to the kid that he stood with for hours

[MrSpecialk7771]

so your trying to describe the hardships of standing on a street corner for 8 hours straight

[MrAlitrab]

they never heard of mobile/cell phones. standing on street corners is sooooo 80s, and soooo bait.

[iunleashedthebeas13]

All this talk about who they are, what they are doing.....who cares? They are standing around all night, and are way too tired to work the next day...some life..these are dead people who just don't know it yet. They are withering away, wasting, and contributing NOTHING, and doing nothing to better themselves or their "people". My taxes help pay for their G-checks, so they can stand on a street corner and have absolutely no positive impact on society....keep blaming everyone else.

[coldblooded6661]

selling drug will not destroy the planet go blame the people that created nuclear bomb n all at selling drug is nuthing beside that

[migueldiaz24]

"obama save us" wrong. the real problem is some dominicans becoming money healthy and then turning thier backs on everyone even thier own family.

[IzzyIsou]

Get a job or go to school, or both. Fuckin' lowlife PRss and Dominicans, aand get off welfare. Mexicans just came here and are already doing so much better. Losers!

[MICHAELCOOK918]

You forgot one thing , Immigration deportation service need to do a better job but on the other hand your dumb ass Dominicans are for the most part ignorrant and illegal. Long story short -should be deported immediately back to your third world ass for sale country- did I mention men sale more ass then women in the D.R.

[MA3POLO]

The cameras were out there for 6-7hrs in the night time, and not one shooting, homicide, or robbery? No police sirens? NYC looks pretty safe to me.

[pryzed1]

What exactly are they waiting for..

[NewYorkBattleCat]

@pryzed1

Customers..

[pryzed1]

@NewYorkBattleCat Customer's? I didnt see any Drug's getting sold. What are they like Guarding there "Hood" or something.

[NewYorkBattleCat]

@pryzed1

They're selling weed, most likely, they didnt need to show its, its a known fact.

[MrRONPITTS]

Are they gay pros

[kalel0984]

I lved in Washington Heights. I had a job at 16. I don't act ghetto or thuggish which is the problem with many black and latino youth. This video is the dumbest vid out there. What exactly are you trying to convey?? Everyone has a choice.

[kmcl11]

@kalel0984 Read his comments. He is sayin many of the youth don't have a choice.

[kalel0984]

@kmcl11 Yeah, right! Everyone has a choice on which path to take in life.

[40belowceo]

You want the real deal story? You want to know what really happened in Washington Heights in the 80's?? Then type in Uptown Teaser in the search box and get a taste of the new show coming out called Uptown. Also check out uptownseries(dot)com. Watch the real stories how the really happened...

[ShamnSicarii]

Fucking dominicans. "you don't know what we have to go through everyday!!" wah wahhh, fucking savage minded idiots. You people make your environment. You have all the opportunities in the world now. Wanna know a hard life? Be puerto rican in NYC in the 1940's and up. Thats a hard life. Now you can become the president of the united states if you wanted to. Instead you are whining and making your reality into a cesspit.

[retrokid62]

seriously wtf is this??this is an embarrassment to uptown,aint doin shit in this vid smh

[ddhsaclu]

lol fake

[33Emelyx]

Half Of Ya Talking about go to school & shit ; it aint like that ; is tougher , ya don't even noe wtf we have to go thru everyday ....

[bmorian]

This is the dumbest video Ive seen all year! "Doing what you have to do" does not = standing around dealing drugs to your own people, which further destroys the community. Doing what you have to do = paying attention in school, dressing like a respectable person and getting a normal job, and supporting your family. Who the hell would hire you, dressed like that and speaking all kinds of broken English. Let's get it together Black People/Latinos and educate ourselves an do better!

[emmallanos]

@bmorian  right ON!!!!

[Tcbmap]

@bmorian

That`s the problem with some of these folks. They use the excuse "dat we poor". Pathetic.

Just cuz you`re poor is a lame ass excuse to act violent, sell drugs, terrorize communities and live like animals.

[alfredoalba0114]

U boys r really dumb! U treat yourself to deal drugs cause you're unemployed, and expect society to feel sorry for u? Specially when you're selling lethal drugs to society? Also, u boys comment about selling drugs for survival cause society won't hire you? Food for thought-- why not talk about your first crime against society... You criminal!!! Perhaps is you that don't qualify for whatever job u applied for.. U dumbass..and cliffy... Your a bigger dumbass you drug dealer... Who u kidding?

[cmekill64]

@alfredoalba0114 you're a bigger idiot " U"

[dariusp09]

I have my own apt, im going back to college n im only 22. NEVER! Will I use my past and my hurt to excuse me from being successful. NEVER! Will I blame my past for my present. Seeing this saddens me

[ddhsaclu]

@dariusp09 grats bud, it gets better, but u already know that

[dariusp09]

Wow! I was raised in Detroit in foster care and group homes my whole life, molested @ 9 yrs old, jumped on sevral occasions, tried to kill myself 5 times, homeless for 2 yrs, AND contracted HIV yet im in school graduating college

[Urutgers]

@dariusp09 Thought you were a native New Yorker?

[rdk2588]

idiots...hopefully the die from the streets or diabetes from all their corner store delicacies...

[kegler27]

[firewater850713]

SO MUTHAfuckin gay!

[gemenilaidback]

they are taking shifts, wow people are real ignorant , and they dont observe detail, they would not survive anywhere, this is complicated but not rocket science, peeps is slow, the first dude in front of the camera switched, then the other dude on the corner switched shifts...this was a very good portrayal and good film.

[glockcocker]

So those guys are selling their ass for money?

[actafadul]

REal street cats dont profile what they do on the corners....move in silence homie...thjis can be used against ya...Big ups toWash Heights 180 and Audubon Ave.

[raygunz45]

[liveshowgrlz]

you guys are so obvious...

[CrowdPleeza]

People in the hood don't need more government welfare necessarily(poverty-reduction)­­. They need more wealth-creation going on in these hoods. Wealth-creation and poverty-reduction can be two different things. Welfare is poverty-reduction. It helps but it's limited without wealth-creation. Owning businesses and investing money properly is wealth-creation which is what people in the hood need more of. What do people in these hoods own? Ownership leads to wealth and less poverty.

[broadwayboss]

this shit is so true.. i should know. free sweet p

[RichyJA]

Exactly if u keep rejecting applications dudes got to eat regardless I respect hustlers cuz that the what I come from not a stick up kid,shooter,car thief none of that I hustled so it is what is start helping tese dudes out with training seminars and more career fairs in the hood.niggas in the hood learn to compromise jut cause they offer you 1/3 of what you make on the block aint a reason for you to shut it down.

[The00Kannon]

lol damn. This the shift change. except no punch-out.

[lunhil12]

More ignorant bums.

[you1me1and1them]

cliffybarz its about godamn time that somebody with intelligence shows the real new york. i love you for that.

[DayInLifeTV]

i just saw a stupid comment, "why do ricans act like african americans" what an idiot. you said that as if African Americans were the ones that grew & made the drugs & transported it here to the US. Rican, Dominicans, etc who grew up in NYC adopted the American urban culture well as their own. how the hell do you expect them to "act"? growing up in the same hood, and having the same struggles? the slang,dress,music is all a blend, you idiot. its not just blk

[rayswag]

@DayInLifeTV that american urban culture your talking about is part of african american culture nd you guys do try to act black its mad obvious nd if you guys act like this because you grew up in da same hood den y dnt u c black ppl acting like hispanics nd its not just ricans nd dominicans cuz these cubans here in miami swear they niggas

[DayInLifeTV]

@rayswag if "acting" african american = being ignorant, being nothing, selling drugs, etc than that shows how smart you are. i didnt know that there was a way to act. blahhh let me get to the point. you're an idiot.

[rayswag]

@DayInLifeTV yea i dnt kno where all dat came from but wen i say hispanics try to act black i mean they try to dress like us nd talk like us do other shit dat black ppl do but if u think that means they're being ignorant, being nothing, selling drugs then that just shows how little u kno about black ppl nd its funny dat u should bring up all these negative stereotypes wen just awhile ago u was just tryna defend hispanics on y they try to act black

[DayInLifeTV]

@rayswag just quit.

[PanamaBread]

@rayswag u sound dumb. imma leave it at that smfh

[rayswag]

@PanamaBread what is this about i never even said anything to u

[hatuey1995]

[gorsi302]

blacks have adopted the position of a begger. Someone should do something for them. Like they are handicapped. Anywhere u go in the world from London to jamica to south africa. Niggers committing crimes ending up behind the bars. They got the most fucked up mentality. They can't succeed coz their brain does not have the capacity to succeed. "Slavery becomes the destiny of dumb nations."

[rayswag]

@gorsi302 damn dats deep but y jamaica u sound mad dumb

[tttfrenetic]

Don't waste your life. You are living in the United States.

[squarecracker]

@tttfrenetic Even worse, living in the richest city in the world. You don't start out corrupting young kids into this idiotic lifestyle, they in turn have clean slate to get any job they want. Don't catch an F and bitch about not being able to get a damn job. Comin live from 136th, this shit is a retarded cycle.

[tmprogram]

why do puertoricans try to be afroamerican

[campo212]

[todo5000]

[TEAMHUSTLER]

im from washington heights and this shit goes on all day 24/7 we gets money ! dyckman we in here !

[Tshaft00]

LMAO....ya'll blame everything on the"hood"...instead try blaming yourself for being in that position, it was you that was too weak as a yute growing up, got pure pressured by the big dawgs on the block, stopped attending school, stopped respecting others and once you get in that lifestyle and stamped wit a record its a losing battle from their....there's plenty of ppl in the hood wit jobs, hispanic and black, so dont blame the hood for ur "lifestyle" blame ur sorry asses

[veronicagarces1]

Cliffy good video and commenting it is a problem of people being in drugs is necessary to remind you that this lifestyle is the model of exclusion product that capitalism and modern society has against blacks and Hispanics, and clify I think your videos and your work shows us who live in this part of the world as people live really most people in America that not everything is the American dream. I love your work clify kisses

[origin760]

I think you would of been better served Barz to show them out trying to get jobs by day to no avail, and then postin' up at night. Maybe the msg would of gotten across better. Keep 'em commin'...ONE!

[origin760]

Wow Clffy, it looks like your first three comments recieved were from some square mufuckaz.....

DAZZLER73: "there just standing shaking hands"?!? NO mufucka, they're running SHIFTS!!!

In the PJ's you have to survive. Unfortunately, that comes with jail time or death. My lil brother did what he had to do to get out the hood, now he's "surviving" in Pelican Bay 'till 2024.

[CliffyBarz]

Thanks For schoolin the ignorant...those handshakes in the hood is how people exchange money etc...my job is to show whats real..and what u see is the root to what causes the violence yall love to see

[INSANEFREAK1]

i see people doin the same thing in Benton Harbor, MI hood, they gota make that money some how to feed them selves or familys.

[crimsonchin203]

@CliffyBarz u just str8 dry snitchen. how u gun post videos like this? and then comment with tellin people that's how money and drugs is exchanged. Nigga obviously people who sell drugs know what they do, and OBVIOUSLY they don't want the fuckin world knowin their secret. but now the whole fuckin world know cuz this dumb ass video.

[TheJJoseph91]

@CliffyBarz I feel Both Sides On Certain Things.

[Dazzler73]

@origin760 @CliffyBarz Hi guys, I think you misinterpreted my comment, I did not say "they're just shaking hands", what I said was "with covert handshakes." The implication was that I'm well aware that these guys are dealing drugs and attempting to mask what they're doing. I don't class myself as ignorant Cliffy!

My point still stands though guys: No matter what world you're born into, it doesn't allow you to deal shoot other people, join gangs and develop a corrupt mentality.

[Dazzler73]

@origin760 @CliffyBarz Don't forget, these guys certainly have enough money to buy gold chains and the least Nikes!

If you want to see real, proper poverty, look at Africa, where children are DYING. They have literally NOTHING and yet you don't see them joining gangs & shooting each other. It's about life choices. The people you show in your vids Cliff CHOOSE to join gangs, who CHOOSE to shoot each other and CHOOSE to act tough instead of making something of their lives & betting the world.

[gemenilaidback]

@Dazzler73 standard of living is different everywhere were all locked in the same system at different levels, in NYC they do what they do to survive and in African,Brazil they do to but its on a lower level financially and different needs and necessities to maintain

[GSPRKY]

@Dazzler73 I agree 100%. The sad thing is this is what CliffyBarz chooses to show. I don't see any videos of his where he goes to Community Colleges to show people trying to make something of themselves. Or Trade schools. But those DVDs probably wont sell. Many people are born in these ghettos & yes, there are more distractions but the fact that CliffyBarz will only show 1 side of the spectrum & then claim that this shit is the trooth is ridiculous. Where is Immortal Technique in these vid

[kmcl11]

@GSPRKY There is more drug dealing that studying going on anyway.

[CliffyBarz]

@GSPRKY Just Like There Are Doctors For Different Things, There Are Film Makers For Different Things..I choose to show the ghetto because thats what needs attention...thats the areas that need to get fix--Also The videos that i produce promoting love in Harlem and feeding the homeless sadly doesnt get much views or recognition from viewers...its not my fault its the violence videos u guys make go viral...go check out "Poor Areas Of Harlem, Help Us Feed Harlem" see how many views that has..and Y?

[GSPRKY]

@CliffyBarz I went & watched that video, it was a great video so I left a comment & gave it a thumbs up. My issue isn't so much with just you because I respect your hustle & I didn't seem to show that in my previous comment. My issue is with black culture, there are so many people exploiting black culture on film to make a dime or up their street cred & most of the money those people make doesn't go back to the same hood that's making them the money. You may not fall under that but many do.

[thepolodon21]

@origin760 danm 2024

[pauLLLde]

agree (:

[CliffyBarz]

Those Are Not Hand Shakes...If You Look Real Close...This is everyday life for these people up here because no one wants to hire blacks and dominicans who have criminal records...so it leaves them trap in the hood

[tmoneyBKLYN]

those r not handshakes u dumbass lol

would u rather them take out a big bag of watever there sellin and yell how much do u want!!!!!!

[Dazzler73]

They should all get jobs and do something worthwhile with their lives instead of compounding the problem by dealing drugs.... If this is what this video is showing, with covert handshakes.

So don't glorify it by saying "we just trying to survive ." The best way to survive is to pay attentntion is school, get a job, respect others, don't deal in drugs and stop repetitively saying "we all up here in da hood doing what we do!!"

GET A JOB!!!

[konradhk00]

@Dazzler73 No one can disagree with you, but it's hard to stay focused in school when your school is run down and full of incompetent teachers. When you live in certain areas similar to these, your surroundings cause you to be on guard at all times. Most people in inner city neighborhoods feel rejected by society. Look at the conditions. Not much is done to keep these areas in good conditions. Treat them with respect and they will want to respect the system and be upstanding citizens.

[raulbat04]

@Dazzler73 yea that" we do what we gotta do" is damn cheesy

[usarkem]

@Dazzler73 FUCK YOU AND YOUR WHITE DEVILS ENSLAVEMENT!

[Adam44516]

Obama ain't gonna save drug dealers. Just because Obama is a black president does not mean he cares about the people. Don't get it twisted. He isn't where he is today to help those guys. Don't depend on Obama. Depend on yourselves, it's all you got.

[kmcl11]

@Adam44516 True. You don't become successful to help bums.
