Song of the Day – ‘Where I’m From’

I’ve heard from a couple of my aces the past 24 hours; I was reminded of one of my favorite ‘phony/jackass’ moments…

This had to be the last year of school.  I had come back from NYC so I had my fair share of New York swag.  Mixtapes, a Knicks jersey, a Brooklyn skullie.  Me and a couple of the boys were in Dillons one night buying…whatever.  The old white lady checking us out noticed my cap…

Checkout Lady: ‘Oh, you’re from Brooklyn?’

Me: (not missing a beat) Yeah, yeah.  You heard of the Marcy Projects?

Checkout Lady: No, that sounds rough!

Me: Yeah, that’s me right there yo!

I had enough sense to not even try to make eye contact with my two homies until we were outside.  To this day, those were two of the best ‘THIS MUTHA!’ looks I’ve ever gotten in my life!

Anyway, enjoy!
