Where We Went Wrong...

I never really understood why it was so cool to be "from the hood". When I was little, we lived rather humbly. Me and my two other sisters to a room, kinda cramped. My mom and dad did their best and kept our little house neat and tidy-- but there were always those occasional unwelcomed roaches and mice every once in a while. I would never want to brag about that. Shoot, once I turned 11, my dad got promoted and we moved to Jamaica Estates-- THAT's when I felt like bragging. A nice home, lawn, backyard and mild-mannered neighbors. I always thought that people from the hood knew better than to glorify it. After all, what's so great about pissy hallways, hyperdermic needles, death and destruction, drugs and violence? For the most part it's the most un-hood people to glorify it. It's those that know least about the horrors of low-income areas that brag about it. And this is often because they don't REALLY know about it. Well I'm confused. Either Jacki-O isn't really as hood as she claims, or she's just plain ol' ignorant. I'd venture to go with option 2. WATCH (if you dare):
