Jackson Jambalaya

I had no idea the rap industry was so well represented here locally.

Seems like everyone is an artist........

Absolutely hopeless.

Not a whole lotta difference going on in rural mobile home parks(lived it)....swamp folks ....hilljacks .....etc. "No lives matter when your poor". The song lyric Making your way in the world today takes everything you got seems appropriate. One thing is for sure in all these places I mentioned including Jackson hoods. They are no go zones for police unless there is a killing.

A totally different culture. But no one dares mention that fact.

Going to the store to stock up on popcorn and beers...this is going to be fun.

Cocaine Earl is on LinkedIn.

Are unemployable people included in the unemployment rate?

Good thing this was recorded on a weekend.

I bet all of those folks would have been at work during the week.

Question asked:
What’s the worst part of Jackson?

Everywhere 😳
That is the truth!

Trillions have been spent to create that hellhole. That life shown in the film will continue to exist as long as folks only want to throw more money at the problem instead of trying to solve the underlying decay that is cause of this.

Thomas Sowell writes a great deal about how modern black culture was actually influenced by southern redneck culture, rather than African culture as many erroneously contend.

I expect to see these fine young musicians at the next MSO concert!

That’s not really the “hood.”
Moore could’ve done better.

Kingfish, why don’t you go on the North End and stick a camera in everyone’s face? Don’t talk about it, BE ABOUT IT.

You’re comment is a case study in incoherent speech. I didn’t understand anything you said.

The IQ total of everyone in this video is less than 10. No education, no jobs, don't want jobs and totally unemployable. Congratulations Jackson.

Reminds me of when I heard a Chinese man once say, if civilization left tomorrow, you’d never know it had been there.

"live, fight and eat"..sounds about right! So good to see that everyone has a social media platform ( even though the haven't mastered the quern's English yet). Maybe there is hope!

I think I see the Crichton Leprechaun there in the background for St Paddy's Day. "Say Yeah!”

KF please put something on here so we can "like" a comment. I can't understand a darn thing most of these guys say, and they all claim to be in the music business, so they must be rich, right? Bet not many of them graduated from high school....Sad all the way around.

@5:55
Is that you, Mobile Bob?
I lived in Mobile during that time and even today that city is in waaaaay better shape than Jackson.

How vibrant. Such piquancy. Why, anyone would want to live ans raise children in a neighborhood like that, wouldn't they?

Wouldn't they, now?

@4:10 PM
Agreed. Jackson, Mississippi is a lion’s den.

@4:40 PM
Kingfish can’t go to any hoods in Jackson.
Kingfish can’t go to any middle class neighborhoods in Jackson.
Kingfish can’t go to any upscale neighborhoods in surrounding cities.

Money can't fix what I saw and heard in that video.

I can't wait til the nightly shootings start at The M-BAR Boi!!!!

This video reminds me of hangin out in Washington Ditions back in the late 90’s, I had no clue what half them dudes were talking about, but shit was funny.

All of your kids know all of the words to the songs. And their moms know all of the dance moves.

“All of their songs” have less than ten views on YouTube. No one knows the words.

“I do music”= I sell drugs

@9:20
Same shit different generation. The same degenerates who are promoting this garbage to suburban kids today were promoting it in the 1990s. If I type their names then this comment will get censored.

@9:20 PM
SWAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

Please report on these same people 5 years from now. Probably dead or incarcerated.

They seem happy. I think we have it all wrong. While we can’t understand this type of living or why the leaders act the way they do. I think they are just fine with it. Crime, raw Boo boo, tore up roads, no running water etc… I don’t even think they will care if the garbage is not picked up. They are perfectly ok with this. So stop talking about and don’t got near there.

7:55 is right.

I really don't care what Jackson residents do.

They enjoy where they live, and I enjoy where I live.

We both choose our leaders and our communities.

My preferences are very different than theirs but they seem happy.

"Thomas Sowell writes a great deal about how modern black culture was actually influenced by southern redneck culture, rather than African culture as many erroneously contend."

I believe it. I've seen some stuff in rural SW MS, rural NE MS, and rural MO by "southern rednecks". Just as I ask how do these people live like this after watching the video, I also ask the same after visiting those predominately redneck areas. I'm sure the same could be said of rural Appalachia.

4:42 : You are clearly neither a Body Count or Cheers fan. I was just making sure folks realize that this video reminded me of poor mountain folk. Love you Bye

Was he just visiting or is Detroit officially here to take over? Asking for a friend since he saw all of the NOLA Mafiosa trash trucks.

Nickoe Whitley (first part of video) seems to be doing well for himself after obtaining a free education to play football at MS State.

Nope. Nickoe Whitley isn't his name. He definitely didn't attend MSU. Lol.

I’ve never heard of this guy, and no one is surprised that parts of West Jackson (hell, every single damn urban area in America) looks like that. Is this supposed to be news or clickbait?

I’m going with option 2.

" Cocaine Earl is on LinkedIn",

That is funny !
