@krizmatthews874 yes they r ghettos as well. I use to go there when doing venue inspections . Culture shock for me! Poor dogs ! Thosw Feral humans should not own pets or breed!
I lived in otahuhu, young white Maori boy,I robbed houses and cars sold drugs, mixed with some bad people who used to be in gangs, carried knives and guns, lived there for 10 years, I’m glad at the age of 16 i decided to move to Rotorua to live with my mum, I would have been in prison or dead, now live in Perth, built a house got married, couple of great kids that just graduated high school with honours.. just proves no matter where your from we all have a choice.
Yo, I remember that. Some dude got tied and dragged miles behind a car? It happened off the street on Nikau Road I was a little kid back then but the story I heard @@Badest187
I keep telling my old friends this... iv made the choice to fix my life up to a standard I am happy with. I got no empathy for junkies playing the victim card... it's everyone else's fault that you continue to use, make selfish decisions, hurt everyone close to you... cos if iv fixed myself, ex herion addict here. So it can be done ya just gotta want it
Who remembers Clendon with the indoor shopping centre and we had a new world 😅. Good times ! Video eazy around the rear too with that fish and chip shop . Friday nights hiring games and movies . Born and raised in rewa . Rewahard! Fights in Mountfort park in those cricket cages 😅 And the old Manurewa pools when they where not too far from Southall haha
I remember sitting down in the rafters with kids with spray paint vandalizing the whole mall and toilets smoking and drinking in the rafters. I remember finding a handbag with some wallet and cards then that attracted other poor kids then a fight broke out over a debit card no one had the pass code for. I miss all of the taggers and tagging i used to read all of it from west to south. Every night someone would roll through and paint the whole area and motorway up.
Shout out from Zimbabwe. Just discovered your channel. Had a few Maori friends in Perth. Played Rugby against a few of you genetic freaks 😂😂. Much love and stay strong
We had a boy from Zimbabwe come to our school in the south island, took him awhile to get used to rugby league but eventually he was a BEAST 💪 surpassed kids that had been playing since they were 6 years old. AROHA NUI ZIMBABWE
To my bro TK he was everything he says he was I was brought up 2yrs younger but he was always there for us generation I could speak truth to his testimony much love my brother
Another fantastic clip, they just keep getting better. I grew up in Rewa/Weymouth in the 70/80s lots of good memories. Nothing better than hearing the gentleman finding God after such a colourful life 🙏 It's funny to think I went to the same school as him many years ago. Well done to you all.
What an awesome doco brother, you captured the essence of it 100% Grew up around Browns rd, Martin rd, Maich Rd area, it wasn’t “hood” but we had the most hood house on the street. Lived in our grandparents house built in the 50s and we sold in 2011, sadly, wish we didn’t. 13 years we’ve been gone, living in the far north now, but Manurewa will always pull at my heart strings no matter what. ❤️
Those Clendon streets and alley ways you walked through was the exact route I walked/biked to get to the shopping centre and back home on Finlayson. Mapelsden, Kennington, Barneys Farm, Palmers Rd, Mahia, Roscommon Rd, Sharland, John Walker Dr, Wordsworth, Burbank, Rowandale, Weymouth Rd and Russell Rd were the streets we used to roam in the 90s as kids and 00s as teens. I wish he took you to our old primary school, Roscommon/Manukau View on Burundi when back then we were still getting smacked up by the teachers lol. This place will always have a special place in my heart. REWA HARD 267 - CLENDON 454 - WEYSOUTH 455 The 90s & 00s Era
Damn only real members remember MANUKAU VIEW because wen I was there, they removed that name. With da kindergarten next door!! I also used to roam all them streets u named, I lived on the corner of Roscommon rd and Wordsworth…. Used to walk to Manukau/Roscommon Primary den started taking da bus from Clendon to De La Salle as I got older… lived in Rewa from 91 to 06 den got sent to Tonga da whole of 07 and now I’m here n California from 07 till now… seeing all this gave me memories! It’ll always be REWA HARD to da heart 🇩🇪
This was an 'eye opener' what I took from this vlog was the people's 'realness' there is so much talent in South Auckland yet it gets surpassed by the 'media attention for all the wrong reasons' type stereo, it's like the Government puts all the 'so called down n out/dropouts/poverty stricken families' where they can tear each other down by scapegoating them to the rest country as 'no hopes in life' ... what I saw from this vlog were proud/talented individuals who did their best with what they had & yet they still stand today to tell their story, we all come from humble beginnings but some more so than others I lived in Onehunga most of my life & I was proud of it yet now its bcome 'new ponsonby' & life has changed for alot of our poly/maori people ... Rewa stay proud from out of the ashes 'the phoenix' will rise so thank you 4 sharing your community your people your life, blessi gs to all❤❤
This one was on! 😎🙏 Grew up in Clendon, on Burundi Ave, in the 80s. Went to school in Rewa all the way thru.. . In Wellys now, but that connect Never leaves you. Chur for your Mahi & chur for the Arohanui.
Honestly seeing Tyrell last year when I come back to NZ for missions from Aus at church praising Jesus maaaan that was a prayer answered God is good honestly 🙌🏽 I grew up and lived on Wenlock
Shout out from the states (Milwaukee, Wisconsin) and damn i really respect y'all hustle and how real y'all are. We all in the same battle fightin against the devil and together we will win together 💯💯💯 Keep doin ur thang playboi 💯💯💯
Cool little insight to manurewa definitely an over looked suburb as many suburbs in south Auckland. So much greatness and potential within south Auckland over looked due to the reputation it holds but if you really dig deep a lot of gems to be found in these areas like tk there are many great athletes, musicians, artists and hard working people. Might be the hoods to some but it’s home for us REWA SOUTHAUCKLAND TO THE 🌏
Awesome watch, love the positive transformation you have made keep it pushing 💯 all the best, I grew up in the 275 but always supporting our people doing good making a positive impact for the southside much alofas ❤️ 💯
I grew up in manurewa , long time ago . I’m 62 and been in Australia for 40 odd years . I don’t remember some of these areas I think that clendon area was farms when I was a kid
Yes, it was a trip down memory lane I'm 52 from Rewa, and Clendon shops had just been built, who would have thought? I moved to Oz as well, I certainly appreciate what I have now. Some great memories as a kid.
I grew up in the Leabank area , the houses were all pretty new , I was a foundation pupil at Lea bank primary , it was a brand new school when I was about 6 I also played junior league for the marlins in the 70s
Yep , same..wordsmith was the last street, then paddocks, lived in brand new house,Roscommon Primary was brand new school..left in the 80's. Got out early🙏
Oh the memories.... brought up on Wordsworth and behind it going up to Clendon Town Centre was all farm land that we used to play in. Was part the first group of kids that went to Roscommon Primary when it first opened in 1977. In 1970s early 80s hung out with Samoan and Tongan mates that lived on Wenlock Place.
Sole I remember back in the day i also went to roscommon primary went it opened up. Wordsworth road at the roscommon road end had some mean as families living at that end back in the day. I remember the Caffery, Tait, Teamo, Hill, Masson, Warbrick, Johnson, Rapana, familes and many more. Bopping and fighting in the street, and heaps of parties. I will never forget that one time I was at home wagging from school and all the police turned up down the road with guns at the hills or massons house, always wondered what happened that day. My parents up and off with us to the south and I have always wondered if those families still live there. What awesome memories.
This just means way more than Spanians vlogs, feels and sounds so surreal not taking anything away from Spanians hood videos either cause I enjoy them. Not only that, the fact its coming from OG Gangstahz and not some young bloke tells a whole world of difference. Bless all those Whanaus struggling.
I grew up at Hyperion Drive moved out when I was 16 to HillPark. I loved to tell everyone I grew up in HillPark. People would laugh and I’d laugh back when there heading back to there shit holes. It’s just a sign to let you know your parents actually worked hard and new how to save
Hell to the yeah REWA hard!! Good to see you and the whanau doing well Tyrell - thanks for the jog down memory lane I remember so many of those places that you past through today having grown in up REWA and shoutout to those still holding it down in the hoods of Soufside!
This video unlocks and brings back a trove of memories from the 1990's roaming around clendon as kids. I will always have a special connection to clendon and the memories of life in the 90s. The bakery when it was around the back of the mall down from the video store and getting free pies when we were hungry or buying 1 getting another for free. I still remember the rafters along the mall sitting up there with the glue sniffing kids tagging and getting high in the evening. And the gang skirmishes on weymouth with 100s of gangsters and us little kids standing around watching them fight.
Mad respect to TK, Fred and Tyrel for representing and sharing their journey. I'm 23 and i share many of the same memories growing up in rewa. Buzzy u caught the bro Tu as well #rewaluv
I'm from Wellington but had the opportunity to live and work in Manurewa ❤ I've since moved back to Wellington. I still miss the bakery at Glendon ❤❤❤ love your UA-cam channel alofa atu.....
good to see people trying to help the poor in the community helping the kids get haircuts,make feeds etc you meet the some of the most down to earth genuine people in the poorer neighbourhoods
Wow amazing bro thank you. I grew up in Watts Rd, but left to come to Australia 30x years ago. I still have a lot of family there, I remember a lot of bad things back in those days. Late 80’s early 90’s.
Shout out to Tk. My first year of topside with REWA he was starting to retire but still jamming ressies. Solid to see the bro has gotten it together. Lived in Weymouth for 30 years and moved to Aussie after. Home will always be home . #MarlinCity #267 #Weysouf #REWAHARD
Could tell you a story about TK's house and why that family moved out. Happened just before Xmas.... I worked in Manurewa and I loved it. The community has such a whanau atmosphere to it. Yes, there is some black sheep in there. But, it is awesome.
Man I’m glad that Dave decided to start the VLOGS back again, these are the best, man I have heard that Gisbourne is pretty rough, and they got a ghetto or hood there too
I grew up in clendon, went to finlayson primary and Weymouth intermediate early 90’s That skate park and rec centre wasn’t there Lived in Stella place 🤙🏾
Still remember the original Clendon tavern back in the days growing up in the 90s shopping centre looks heaps different now but buzzy to see the tunnels still there under the big roundabout
Memory lane these streets! Grew up on Rowandale Ave but knew every alley way and short cut. Use to run in the storm tunnels from Mon Desire. Manurewa Pools most holidays collecting tennis balls off the tennis club roof.
Yeah bro did some time there hahaha. Mr Butterworth was the man.Pretty sure my first teacher got fired for tying us down to seats and hitting us Ms Adams lol.@@JaemanEdwards
..in Wellington they have broccoli..silverbeet and parsley in the main street for anyone ..in the middle of the road 😊 ..i used to work at that warehouse 98/99 Auckland was awesome !!
This is beautiful my brother! Although it may have its downside, it’s really family based and welllll damnnnn friendly, nod your head with a smile and you’ll b allgoood! From Fiji to Rewa 07🔥
I like the comradeship in this video - and everyone saying Bro and saying it with Aroha and meaning- some horror affects many communities but one learns to rise above such tragedy - there's alot of laughter too which eases the tension- take care for your honesty and cool presentation- I live in OZ but I miss that deadly way of speaking and Maori pride of survival- thank U Aroha nui
Man,there are some wonderful people in the Manurewa community, I did live on Rowendale Avenue in the early 90s but it wasn't a bad area back then, the economy here in New Zealand is a huge factor in the crime scene in New Zealand at the moment
I fasi'd couple peeps at that reserve, dont even remember it being a skatepark and in that community centre too lol somewhere in the 90's. Omg Mihnnn!! What up!! No 1 bakery in Rewa!! Cheers King Dave, awesome vlog bro👊
I remember Min and the OG bakery around the other side of the shops. Before the WareWhare etc. Remember the opening of the town centre, the parot in the mall, the old Clendon tavern next to the paddock with the horses. The first police helecopter and being asked not to go outside when you hear it lol
i love this video bro seeing all the boys change there life for the good, ive actually hired an ex tribesmen who was in jail most of his 20s grew up in Otara and watching him change his life, was a hard case dude when i first met him but hes eased up a lot over the years working for me, also been shot a few times few battle scars on him.
I grew up in Clendon when the old shopping centre was their, when you had to walk through the mall and Mins bakery was on the side where the tunnels are
Good to see you in the hood was born and raised on Weymouth Rd until I moved outta home I see some changes from when I was a kid walking through the alleyways and hanging around Clendon and Southmall was run down looking before but has improved keep the vids coming bro ✌️
Churr bro sad to see how so many projects are going up around Nz I haven’t been home for 5 years living in Western Australia Kendinup 50 km from Albany the southwest love your videos. Misko ex mangere east yates road nga tup churr
Been enjoying your hood diaries bro...good to see you back out n about. God bless you my brother and take care...swing by anytime you wanna catch up.🙏❤
Solid brother Dave! ; sending love and balance to the lil cuzzy..TK..REWA..shot for the shoutout 34:35 give respect where respect is due..nothing but love la familia #AllRED
Dang i grew up in rewa in the 80s, lived in Nina Pl, i remember going to Clendon shops when it first opened, left nz in 89 for Australia, went to school with Freddy Base too, rewa intermediate, dang i haven't been back since i left.
Shout out to Tyrell I was a kid playing for the manurewa marlins u8s 9s growing up he was the one of the no1 draw cards as we finished our games to go watch the barter card cup always looked up To him as a player still to this day legend from watching episode 1 to this man is tough mad respect for what he’s been through to making those changes in his life nothing more motivating for kids growing up in our hood I now reside in Australia and have for the last 14years
Chur TK... always representing Rewa. NZ Under 18's league camp and all I remember is him saying "Rewa Hard, Rewa Hard"! Told us he was Maori/Fijian? I dunno but he was the toughest fulla to tackle to the ground, he just bounced off everything. Tough! Glad to see you doing good bro!
I grew up on Hanford place and went to Roscommon primary. There used to be a tavern where the maccas is now. Friends and I used to scope the tavern car park Saturday and Sunday morning looking for cash 😂. Also my mates bike got stolen within 5 minutes from the united video where the tunnel used to be. Mum moved us to the Mount when I was about 10 which was probably a good thing as I would have got up to no good
I grew up in Clendon (before the supermarket was built) in the 80's when it was all still farms and orchards with cattle right down to the Weymouth waterfront.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Lol still remember a few of those houses and who stayed in them 🤣 😂 😅 but shot "Tk" haven't seen your face since the younger days Uso, You were always the Mantis on the field God Bless...good old Galuvao days❤❤❤
Solid vlog brother! I grew up in Ngaruawahia but my Dad lived in Rewa so I would spend all the school holidays out there as a kid. Started getting into all my mischief out those ways. Older cousin had me banging bloods, tagging alleyways, stealing from the shops, smoking ciggys… all sorts of mischief, all by the age of 7 or 8 😂 If you’re ever in Hamilton, you have to stop by Ngaruawahia, Huntly, Melville and Fairfield to do one of these vlogs. They have to be the roughest hoods in the Hamilton area. If not in the whole Waikato region.
Hi 😊 i grew up in Manurewa east my mother inlaw was a security guard at Clendon mall. My ex and his family know Tyrell and his sister. And there not wrong about every second house being on meth cause i used to be one of those people. i moved to my home town to get off the gear Thankfully. i never thought of Manurewa as the hood 😅 i feel like it was different when i was growing up it taught me resilience and independence. REWA HARD❤❤
Raised and born in Rewa hard from birth till was 17years age then parents decided to move to tauranga coz me and my siblings were doing no good now im 25 with kids of my own and i woukdnt want my kids growing up the shit i grew up had to do there stayed on barneys farm from birth till 3years old then moved to burbank side stayed there till i was 13 then moved to silver creek st in clendon till 17 you dont know your in the hood till you leave it Rewa will forever have my heart but i wouldnt want my kids growing up through that shit all my whanua still there and still stuck in the rut everything in this video is so true what they say

Wow amazing bro thank you. I grew up in Watts Rd, but left to come to Australia 30x years ago. I still have a lot of family there, I remember a lot of bad things back in those days. Late 80’s early 90’s.
Shout out to Tk. My first year of topside with REWA he was starting to retire but still jamming ressies. Solid to see the bro has gotten it together. Lived in Weymouth for 30 years and moved to Aussie after. Home will always be home . #MarlinCity

Dope bro, day one follower.. massive to see how far you have come
Could tell you a story about TK's house and why that family moved out. Happened just before Xmas.... I worked in Manurewa and I loved it. The community has such a whanau atmosphere to it. Yes, there is some black sheep in there. But, it is awesome.
Thanks bro I lived near Clendon 30 yrs ago before moving to Aus so good to see the work that you are doing good bless ❤
Man I’m glad that Dave decided to start the VLOGS back again, these are the best, man I have heard that Gisbourne is pretty rough, and they got a ghetto or hood there too
It is a very small place
Kaiti.
I grew up in clendon, went to finlayson primary and Weymouth intermediate early 90’s
That skate park and rec centre wasn’t there
Lived in Stella place 🤙🏾
Finally someone doing south auckland walkthroughs 298 reppin 🔥 solid crother
Still remember the original Clendon tavern back in the days growing up in the 90s shopping centre looks heaps different now but buzzy to see the tunnels still there under the big roundabout
Memory lane these streets! Grew up on Rowandale Ave but knew every alley way and short cut. Use to run in the storm tunnels from Mon Desire. Manurewa Pools most holidays collecting tennis balls off the tennis club roof.
Did you go to "Rottendale" primary school ?
Yeah bro did some time there hahaha. Mr Butterworth was the man.Pretty sure my first teacher got fired for tying us down to seats and hitting us Ms Adams lol.@@JaemanEdwards
@@jiggafyd I went to Fleabank Primary. We would smash Rottendale in rugby.
Rewa hard bro
This is an important insight in the community . Appreciate your mahi brothers
..in Wellington they have broccoli..silverbeet and parsley in the main street for anyone ..in the middle of the road 😊 ..i used to work at that warehouse 98/99 Auckland was awesome !!
This is beautiful my brother! Although it may have its downside, it’s really family based and welllll damnnnn friendly, nod your head with a smile and you’ll b allgoood! From Fiji to Rewa 07🔥
I like the comradeship in this video - and everyone saying Bro and saying it with Aroha and meaning- some horror affects many communities but one learns to rise above such tragedy - there's alot of laughter too which eases the tension- take care for your honesty and cool presentation- I live in OZ but I miss that deadly way of speaking and Maori pride of survival- thank U Aroha nui
Meeeaaaan looking forward to watching more or these from the other suburbs aswell, keep up the good work man
Man,there are some wonderful people in the Manurewa community, I did live on Rowendale Avenue in the early 90s but it wasn't a bad area back then, the economy here in New Zealand is a huge factor in the crime scene in New Zealand at the moment
I fasi'd couple peeps at that reserve, dont even remember it being a skatepark and in that community centre too lol somewhere in the 90's. Omg Mihnnn!! What up!! No 1 bakery in Rewa!! Cheers King Dave, awesome vlog bro👊
Shot brother Dave, love ur vlogs, Kia Kaha, stay humble, great to see you fulfilling your purpose in life, may the Lord continue to bless you
Thank you for sharing our stories around the hoods here in Aotearoa brother. Bless🙌
My family is the Samoan family that lived at the end of Wenlock Pl.
Moved on to Australia
Man brings back childhood memories
The man dave and the kuzzy for this film so good to see alot of changes in rewa
Im from west auckland and worked with a few cats from rewa all round solid dudes always shared their lunches with me and love a drink and a sesh
😅 I cracked up when I saw the Ghetto bird on the mural 😂😂😂
I remember Min and the OG bakery around the other side of the shops. Before the WareWhare etc. Remember the opening of the town centre, the parot in the mall, the old Clendon tavern next to the paddock with the horses. The first police helecopter and being asked not to go outside when you hear it lol
Can't beat the bakeries out there, been a minute since I lived in old Rewa. Looks better than I remember
TY for the win always! Mans killing it!
Also hope TFS took his shoes off before he walked on the matts
Mark was a legend of the community.. remeber always going to his church on a friday night $2 to watch a movie have uce creame and pop corn 💯
i love this video bro seeing all the boys change there life for the good, ive actually hired an ex tribesmen who was in jail most of his 20s grew up in Otara and watching him change his life, was a hard case dude when i first met him but hes eased up a lot over the years working for me, also been shot a few times few battle scars on him.

Tyrelle... The man,
Your future is soooo bright with your MMA career... Wishing you all the best bro. Much love from Wellington!!!
Shout out to Tyrell I was a kid playing for the manurewa marlins u8s 9s growing up he was the one of the no1 draw cards as we finished our games to go watch the barter card cup always looked up
To him as a player still to this day legend from watching episode 1 to this man is tough mad respect for what he’s been through to making those changes in his life nothing more motivating for kids growing up in our hood I now reside in Australia and have for the last 14years
I moved from timaru in the south island to Clendon and it was a huge culture shock and im back in the south now but REWA hard! All day!
Big ups to the Hikatangatas and the bro jordz
Chur TK... always representing Rewa. NZ Under 18's league camp and all I remember is him saying "Rewa Hard, Rewa Hard"! Told us he was Maori/Fijian? I dunno but he was the toughest fulla to tackle to the ground, he just bounced off everything. Tough! Glad to see you doing good bro!
I grew up on Hanford place and went to Roscommon primary. There used to be a tavern where the maccas is now. Friends and I used to scope the tavern car park Saturday and Sunday morning looking for cash 😂.
Also my mates bike got stolen within 5 minutes from the united video where the tunnel used to be.
Mum moved us to the Mount when I was about 10 which was probably a good thing as I would have got up to no good
I remember watching Tyrel play he was a bad man on the league field 🔥
keep shining your light Dave.
I lived on Russell road for years. Good place and people!!
I grew up in Clendon (before the supermarket was built) in the 80's when it was all still farms and orchards with cattle right down to the Weymouth waterfront.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane,
Lol still remember a few of those houses and who stayed in them 🤣 😂 😅 but shot "Tk" haven't seen your face since the younger days Uso,
You were always the Mantis on the field God Bless...good old Galuvao days❤❤❤
Clendon Classic Cafe is where some of us brothers meet. We ride motorcycles. Most days, you'll find us there for a coffee.
Solid vlog brother!
I grew up in Ngaruawahia but my Dad lived in Rewa so I would spend all the school holidays out there as a kid. Started getting into all my mischief out those ways. Older cousin had me banging bloods, tagging alleyways, stealing from the shops, smoking ciggys… all sorts of mischief, all by the age of 7 or 8 😂
If you’re ever in Hamilton, you have to stop by Ngaruawahia, Huntly, Melville and Fairfield to do one of these vlogs. They have to be the roughest hoods in the Hamilton area. If not in the whole Waikato region.
Hi 😊 i grew up in Manurewa east my mother inlaw was a security guard at Clendon mall. My ex and his family know Tyrell and his sister. And there not wrong about every second house being on meth cause i used to be one of those people. i moved to my home town to get off the gear Thankfully. i never thought of Manurewa as the hood 😅 i feel like it was different when i was growing up it taught me resilience and independence. REWA HARD❤❤
This brings me back, first part of Aotearoa my family moved to.
MMMASSIVE BRUTHA DAVE💯❤️...RESPECT TO THE MIGHTY TYRELL AND HIS SON ...ALL THE BEST BRUTHAZ🤙

Mean as keep the hood diaries coming , and shout outs too the brothers for making those good changes in their lives .
Taro leaves are like umbrellas here in Sth Waikato....Bless up 🇨🇰
Gangsta episode. Shout out to all the bros in this Chur aow
Good to see my old hood....Clendon was brand new when I grew up there next to the Marlins field.
Good people from Sth Auckland. The Karakas are my closest whanau but never met them before I left.
I had a similar upbringing in Australia 💯 then I spoke to a respected elder, he said where there's darkness there is no light !
If you go Eastside check out history to Kupe Street. Not Sure if it's still the same today but they're the hood on the Eastside
