Stay out of that thread; it's very dangerous.
I go there because I am brave.
These are the "real, hard core gangstas" who eschew their bangin' to type prose on their computers, eh?
Exactly.
Even if they were "crips" (give me a break), what would it matter.
Would you start wearing a bullet proof vest at your computer?
Rap battles, and that thread, is all about where you're from, what you've been through, etc. Come to think about it, so is the blues, and country music...whadd'ya know!
Agggh.
I have a fair amount to say on all this, both being from Venice, the gangs, and caring about urban life.

Do you think they were for real or just trying to impress each other? I pictured them really being some extremely white and geeky kids with big coke-bottle glasses...

quite a few of the homies are from the UK...
Thank you Gus! I have just read your adventures in Wonderland. You ARE THE BRAVEST OF THE BRAVE.
I am off to the hospital to have my sides stitched up. Simply the best..
