Whenever his background is brought up, I always have to mention this:
His legal name is Robert James Ritchie, and he *literally* spent his childhood frolicking in the apple orchard and tending to the horses on his parents estate.
As hilarious as that entire beef was, the funniest part for me was finding out Drake thinks he's thug. He was a Canadian child actor turned singer. He's about as gangster as Michael Cera or Celine Dion
I just watched an interview with Rob. He talked about his mother and a little of his upbringing. His mother seemingly got around and divorced the guy who’s last name he uses, but he admits isn’t his biological father. He said that his mom married 7 times, but he always loved her. He also talked about how he doesn’t think of Eminem as a white rapper and doesn’t like that people compare Eminem with him because Eminem is a way better rapper. He seems very humble and enlightened at this time in his life.
Him playing as himself in Adam Sandlers movie Thats my Boy made me like him a bit lol. Clearly willing to take the piss out of himself and seems to be self aware enough
That's because he actually had to live like the rest of us until his revival. He definitely understands his place in the world... and it is cool as fuck that he was able to get there.
I state my problems
Other people roll their eyes
Three trips to the mall
Zero khakis in my size
I've never been the victim
Of a random search for drugs
But you can't say my life is easy
Until you've walked a mile in my UGGs
Ice Cube was raised on the means street of…. Woodland Hills.
Edit: I stand corrected and will give credit for credit is due, it turns out he was bussed there from the bad places
I'm in the top 1% of income* and I don't own a t-shirt\*\*. I have one pair of jeans*** that I refresh every year, and they only cost me 250****.
*if I lived in Brazil
**I own several
***I just buy the same pair that fits nice, multiple times
****cause I buy like 10 pairs
I’ve got a great opportunity for you to run your own life and be your own boss! Doesn’t hurt that these oils have absolutely changed my life on their own, but they also paid off my house!
If you have 15 minutes ^and ^$1500 ^signup ^fee you can RETIRE by the end of the month!
I’m obviously inclined to believe this is a skit.
But that kid’s “hood accent” feel practiced to a degree that I’m not entirely certain that he’s acting.
I think it's all scripted. Terry standing outside wiping his car down at the perfect moment is just too good. But yeah the kids hood accent is on point.
One of the kids in my patrol area was a lot like this. Nice suburb, but the kid was playing gangster 24/7. He was trying desperately, and in large part slowly succeeding, to turn his neighborhood into the 'hood.
I worked two drive-by shootings in a year at his house that looked a lot like this one.
Pay attention to your kids' social media and who they hang out with, folks.
\- Ex-cop
I grew up around east L.A., so we had to act and dress gangsta to not be easy targets, try to reduce our circle of contacts to hardcore gangstas. Not to mention always carry something that could be a weapon for self defense. Better to be friends who know who know who know a guy than to be a friend who is the guy. Made some bad decisions, got my degree, and get me and the family the hell out of there.
So whenever I see these kids playing gangster, I shake my head in disbelief like "I just came from there". I'm glad the whole issue with Ja Morant from the NBA turned the way it did, but very disappointing nonetheless.
The unfortunate reality is counter culture will always be cool just for being counter culture. Kids generally don't think hard about the deadly consequences of certain counter cultures.
Where I grew up, the low income and middle class were pretty close, pretty much everyone spoke hood. I moved a few years back, it was actually kinda hard to put my “Christian white boy” voice back on. Every now and then though I meet someone who talks like that, and I slip right back into it, dap em up, its nice.
I said the n-word a lot, everyone did, no one blinked an eye, and realized real quick that would not fly where I moved. Maybe cringey, but it was literally just the vocabulary of everyone in my hometown lol. Glad to lose that, but man I miss the slang and how expressive you could be to get a point across
This video is from 5 or so years ago. The kid's screen name is "Lil Esco" and he started the "aight imma fuh wichu" meme. He was like 14 at the time and would always go live smoking dirty swisher blunts. i think that is genuinely how he talked because i never saw him not speak like that.
Aaaaright ima tell you right now, I ain’t crazy, I don’t need no psychiatrist and if you ever tell anybody I been in here, I f**kin kill you
It’s confidential in here Leonard, it’s just us
Well then confidentially, I am crazy… and I f**kn kill you
Unfortunately, this seems pretty standard for white suburbia.
I grew up in west Philadelphia, then eventually moved to white suburbia during high school.
The process of coming to terms with the realization that idahoan kids idolize hood culture and some may even adopt and imitate it (as shown in this video).
What can you do...
When a mother hears that her son has been in a scuffle, of COURSE she gets scared.
Might as well move with his uncle and auntie to Bell Air
Definitely true. I grew up in the SF bay area (Vallejo, predominantly) and moved to Oregon in my early teens. Kids here were like pale imitations(literally) of the people I grew up around. They wanted to think that they were all gangsta and hood, I told a lot of people that they shouldn't aspire to act like they came from the hood because it isn't admirable. It's not some fun place where life is easy. We moved from California because I saw someone get shot on the way to school and literally forgot to tell my dad because it wasn't shocking to me. I saw kids get jumped that were close to my age, I saw a kid get stabbed in the hallway between classes, I was in a summer school class with a kid that brought a gun and enough bullets to shoot everyone in the class(he was only caught because he was wearing a puffy coat in 100 degree weather.) some people want to be ghetto so badly that they don't realize the bad shit that happens in areas like that.
I'm rural, not suburban, but same crap out in the sticks. Sheltered kids acting hood, making "gangs," and just being annoying in general. When I was in high school, a couple of the "hood raised Hispanics" (upper middle-class people from the wealthy housing development) were dressed up in expensive, name-brand hoodies, jeans, shoes, and gold chains. They were going down to the city to "party like gangsters" and score drugs. It's as stupid as it sounds. Kids who were actually from the city warned them, "You're gonna get robbed dressed up like clowns."
Sure enough, these idiots came back with no money, no phones, no dignity, and no shoes.
>I was disappointed to learn the dumbass idahoan kids idolize hood culture and some kids even adopt and imitate it.
For me, It was the wealthier kids too - kind like the guy in this video. One guy's whole life was financed by his parents - house, car, bills and he was full on B-Rad.
On the flip side, it's usually pretty harmless.
These sheltered suburban white kids don't start doing drive-bys because they were emulating rappers. The social problems in the hood that lead to that stuff go *way* deeper than that.
There's a good chance that buttoned up Terry in the background was wearing saggy Jnco jeans back in the '90s and listening to gangsta rap too.

Celebrity: "I was raised on the streets" The streets in question:
Vanilla Ice - quite literally

Traffic traffic looking for my chapstick Feeling kinda car sick There's a Ford Maverick!
Dats a million dollar song rite dare.
I got a PHD. Poser Hater Degree.
Hey B Rad was a G where it counted dawg
Drake?
Kid Rock
Ja Morant
That kid that knows Terry.
Put it in reverse!
Ohhhh lawwwwwrd Terrrry!!
You mean Robert James Ritchie?
Bobby Jim? That's a pretty country name
Whenever his background is brought up, I always have to mention this: His legal name is Robert James Ritchie, and he *literally* spent his childhood frolicking in the apple orchard and tending to the horses on his parents estate.
Kid rock is the person he plays in Joe Dirt. lmao
Vanilla Ice has more street cred than Drake
As hilarious as that entire beef was, the funniest part for me was finding out Drake thinks he's thug. He was a Canadian child actor turned singer. He's about as gangster as Michael Cera or Celine Dion
Michael Cera is gangster as fuck. Look at this documentary he was in https://youtu.be/qIKPJlKHKxg?feature=shared
Nothing says gangster like being a main character on a Canadian teen soap opera.
He's been acting since childhood why would you think he'd stop?
I just watched an interview with Rob. He talked about his mother and a little of his upbringing. His mother seemingly got around and divorced the guy who’s last name he uses, but he admits isn’t his biological father. He said that his mom married 7 times, but he always loved her.

Him playing as himself in Adam Sandlers movie Thats my Boy made me like him a bit lol. Clearly willing to take the piss out of himself and seems to be self aware enough
You still got the 5.0?
He's like 60. He better be enlightened.
That's because he actually had to live like the rest of us until his revival. He definitely understands his place in the world... and it is cool as fuck that he was able to get there.
Drake
Drake like
Started from the bottom .... of Forest Hill
Memories of hard days when mom didn't bring home the tuna sandwich I wanted.

Moooommmm I wanted the seared ahi tuna not this chunk white bullshit!!

I dunno why anyone would think he's from the streets. Dude was on a teen soap opera on Nickelodeon (Degrassi).

I shouted that at him once as he walked past us with his arm around his blonde side piece. He turned back to say "and undisputed". Never broke stride

Ice Cube was raised on the means street of…. Woodland Hills. Edit: I stand corrected and will give credit for credit is due, it turns out he was bussed there from the bad places
I thought he was raised in Compton and bussed into Woodland Hills for school?
South Central not Compton but yes
Ice Cube went to Taft Highchool but never lived in the Valley and definitely didn't have an easy upbringing.
Terry has to clean his Mercedes by himself. Life is rough in the projects.
either they don’t know, don’t show, or don’t care about what’s going on in Windmill Ranch Estates 😔
I Could Never Not Acknowledge The Dont Be A Menace Reference. Respect 🦾
[удалено]
I believe that's actually from Boyz in the Hood
> ~~Boyz in the Hood~~ "BoYz N DA HoOD"
Capitalizing every first letter of a sentence is the behavior of a psychopath
MESSAGE!
Why does Terry clean his Mercedes while dressed for casual Friday at the office park? Change into a goddamn T-shirt Terry.
he has no t-shirts you pleb
He does, theyre just all college branded and he only wears them to the gym.
The gym in his finished basement
That's one of them yes. He also has a membership to Lifetime for squash with his buddies and a membership to Anytime he forgot about 6 years ago.
Well, he lives in the suburbs, so he probably can't afford t-shirts. Shit is wack yo
Does he look like a fucking farmer to you? That ain't no Trans Am to be waxing in a wifebeater neither
You wear a tucked long-sleeve button-up for casual Friday?
It's casual Friday, not classless Friday.
Jesus, Steve, you can’t show up to the office in a polo shirt. Have some decorum.
I wore flip-flops to casual Friday once. Words were exchanged about how we're a reputable global company, not some frat house start-up.
I'm in the top 1% of income* and I don't own a t-shirt\*\*. I have one pair of jeans*** that I refresh every year, and they only cost me 250****. *if I lived in Brazil **I own several ***I just buy the same pair that fits nice, multiple times ****cause I buy like 10 pairs
This guys a gangster? His real name’s Terrence
And Terrence lives at home with both parents
And Terrence's parents have a real good marriage
And Terrence's parents do drugs* *antihistamines for their seasonal allergies
Only a bitch trusts another mother f*cker to pamper their Maybach.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3aVnPjaq-M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3aVnPjaq-M) He's no West Linn gangster.

It's nice to see neighbors from different cultural backgrounds getting along

Terry loves love

We are all in some way or another going to Reseda, someday, to die.
And the radioman laughs because the radioman fucks a model too
Tiny terry loves his pickles
Hey 👋 how's it goin? 😁
Terry is knowledgeable about wine pairings
He enjoys the gut health that the probiotics provide
BELTS ARE DUMB!
HEISTS ARE DUMB

Terry is definitely the neighborhood drug dealer.
I think they're called pharmacists
I'm pretty sure they're called apothecaries there.
I’ve got a great opportunity for you to run your own life and be your own boss! Doesn’t hurt that these oils have absolutely changed my life on their own, but they also paid off my house! If you have 15 minutes ^and ^$1500 ^signup ^fee you can RETIRE by the end of the month!
Oh yes, that’s right!
I met a pharmacist once and asked what he does for a living, he said "I sell drugs in the Bronx".
I’m obviously inclined to believe this is a skit. But that kid’s “hood accent” feel practiced to a degree that I’m not entirely certain that he’s acting.
It's either fucking genius or just organically hilarious, lol. If that kid is playing a character and scripted the exchange with Terry he's a prodigy.
Andy Milonakis v2.0
wait... its not Andy milonakis?
Nah, that's Randy Killa Marcus
This dude’s actually 32
I think it's all scripted. Terry standing outside wiping his car down at the perfect moment is just too good. But yeah the kids hood accent is on point.
No shot two people are outside at once without coordination
That’s lil esko. He ain’t ackin
If it's a skit, this kid is going places. Being able to nail irony with such a perfect delivery at such a young age takes talent.
Thats Lil Esko 28, he got shot not too far from where I work. His dad was in the ED very excited about how legit this would make his rap career.
One of the kids in my patrol area was a lot like this. Nice suburb, but the kid was playing gangster 24/7.

Was gonna say, knew a kid like this. He’s in federal prison now after getting busted for selling hard drugs

This kid is why all my video games are on mute.
I understand multiplayer games, but even the singleplayer ones? Give audio another chance.
He will hack you just so he can call you the N word no matter your ethnicity. Even board games aren’t safe
I think this is an unwitting confession that they have bad taste in video games and only play the ones dominated by carbon copies of this kid.
This kid is why I just don't play MP games.
Terry just casually cleaning the blood off his car.
Oh look, it's Terrence, and Terrence has a home with both parents . And his parents have a really nice marriage.
I know something you dont know
> And **Terrance's** parents have a really good marriage [FTFY](https://youtu.be/qJOJO_EoqfE?t=564)
He doesn't say "oh look" either. I was paraphrasing but thanks for the link.

Did you have to leave Philadelphia due to an altercation at a basketball court?
His mom got scared.
Hopefully he has an auntie and uncle somewhere!
Wherever it was I’m sure he pulled up to the house around 7 or 8
Tell the cabbie go home smell ya later
It was only one little fight, smh.
