Street Science

Have you ever wondered why people "playahate"?  I have...and that's why I made this page.  This page is intended to communicate to people who know NOTHING about the inner city.  For y'all who not educated in Ebonics, "playahate" means judging somebody you don't even know. So next time you see a brotha doin' something you don't particularly like, put a crown on a brotha instead of lookin' down on a brotha.  Nine times out of ten, the person doin' the playahating can't imagine what it's really like to grow up in the streets.  Here, I provide 411 fo' yo' consumption. Read, be Ebonified, and enjoy!!!
