Apparently you don’t know what late 20’s looks like because she definitely looks 40. She’s super pretty no doubt, but doesn’t look late 20’s at all and 40 is not old either 😂
You can tell she is being 100 by the way she lights up reflecting about her past. Not necessarily glamorizing it but taking ownership and ultimately not passing blame. I have so much respect for the way she got clean once she found out about being pregnant especially with how many years she had been using prior to that. That must of been a lot tougher then she stated.
I still have homegirls that rock like her they just don't care about what people think they get respect simple always put in work when we was out there 80s 90s was fun.
Honestly this is proof of how much a mother loves her children even before they are born. I had been smoking cigarrettes for 14 years before finding out I was pregnant. I had tried quitting so many times and failed. But the day I found out I was pregnant I quit and haven't smoked since. I was not going to be a bad example for my kid!!! The love a good woman has within is nothing short of miraculous. This woman did what most can't and seems to be living her best life!!❤
Couple of things ive noticed within the first 10 minutes of watching: 1. This dude tries way too hard to seem like hes down. I cringed in the beginning when he tried speaking some long ass name in his spanish accent and she was like nah i just go by Christina. 2. Dude needs to respect her boundaries more. Let her decide if she wants to tell people what city shes from instead of you doing it for her. She may have reasons why she doesnt want that aired out for everyone to know. 3. This dude 100% sounds like he works for the feds. Im not saying he is working for them but being a podcast host would be the perfect excuse for asking all these questions that the law would never otherwise be able to get answers to. This is 100% something the feds would do. 4. I get weasel vibes from this dude. Like he would have no problem using your head as a stepping stone to get to where he needs to be instead of earning his way there through hard work & respect. Yall be careful out here man. Make sure 7 years have passed before you talk about anything with this man. Remember, real G's move in silence.
Exactly! I felt the same way about this fool. I grew up in the 90s and the Rampart area of Los Angeles so I know exactly what shes talking about. This fool annoyed the fuck out of me within the first 10 minutes. I know damn well he aint from one of our hoods in LA but hes trying hard to act like he knows our culture. 😂
Probably because you bozos don't know how to guide a conversation... It comes across in some type of way for you.. Johnny has been in prison and has understanding of the game much higher than your nickel and bag bullshit....
I grew up in south central LA and had 100% similar experiences as she did with gangs not that I was a gang member but my brothers cousins aunts uncles and growing up in the 90s was scary but it was the reason why I vowed to leave the hood and I did and would never go back. The elementary school i went to was South Park Elementary school in LA , the Jr High I went to was Mary McCloud Bethune Junior high school and I went to John C Fremont High School which is adjacent to the schools she's mentioning and had just as much gang influences in the schools as the ones she mentions. I'm glad I never got caught up in all of that mess and will actually say that watching my brothers live that life and how it destroyed their lives it made me realize that I never wanted that kind of life for myself. This life was the ultimately what caused my oldest brother his life just at the time of his life where he was finally trying to turn his life around and because of that I will always condemn that life. It devastates the lives of those who are family and friends to the people who choose that life not just the people who chose to live it.
She is gorgeous and has a great fun personality! She is very articulate, didn’t glamorize her story but was very truthful! And she was a smoke show in High School! Wow…
My xwife is like this. It’s so annoying. She’s from gangland LA, and I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. I met her in army. It’s not glamorous; these females are mean as shit.
You dodged a bullet making her your ex. I was a gang member and even i never made cholas my girlfriends. A lot of them got passed around mess w opposing factions and set you up. I made sure to marry a non gang member, non drug using, non slutting woman. Now im just a blue collar family man married to a beautiful chicana that kinda resembles ( looks wise ) the woman in this video. You learned a lesson w your ex. I hope you found something better. And thank you for your service. 🇺🇸
@@Milkymilk07 nah cause we live in the neighborhood she grew up in so i would have figured it out. And i can tell when people came from that life. Her ex husband is a square that grew up in the same neighborhood too. In that world its a small world where everybody knows each other, or has heard of each other, or knows some one that knows some one. Out of the 2 of us im the one with that background ( different neighborhood ) so i would have heard something. I also know some guys from this neighborhood as well.
I love how honest she is. She knew she had a choice. She made hers and took it for what it was. She isn’t making some sorry ass excuse. We all have a story
She has such a cool attitude and positive vibe, doesn't get offended or take anything to seriously, despite the interviewers stereotypical comments and questions....
because she isn't a Latinx , woke person, she's a real Latina, liberal but old school liberal which is she does not get offended easily or by nonsense, she could also say some stereotyipical crap about white dude interviewer and expect the same, it's just conversation.
Yea cause she’s a fucking baser who still enjoying meth and crack you can tell she hasn’t transformed too much by how she defended living her best life then instead of living it currently.
Raised in the 90's and got to say that if you are still alive having lived in that era you are just blessed. Not to mention Rampart CRASH unit who would pick you up and drop you in an enemy hood

Me and homegirl are the same age, same story except I never took for granted how much my grandparents and my mom sacrificed so that me and my siblings could be in America. I was one of the young people in the 90’s preaching against gangs, we tried to tell these knuckleheads to help their parents and succeed but instead they chose strangers over family and when they got locked up it was the family suffering paying attorney fees, court fees and money on the books. I seen grandparents and parents die living the last years with a broken heart because the children were stupid. In the 90’s I told so many of my immigrant friends that one day the government would change the laws and deport them, they needed to get their papers right before that time came. Well that time came and they all got deported. I don’t feel sorry. God kept His promise to their ancestors but they forsake God so judgment arrived. It’s all sad with gangs and drugs nothing to glorify.
I agree with you. My parents also sacrificed a lot, like working in sewing sweat shops, for my sister and I to make it. People like her just want to have fun at other's expense.
I’ll never understand how some children from immigrant parents join gangs and choose that lifestyle. 99% of immigrants leave their motherland to escape those kinds of things. America isn’t perfect but it’s very true that this country allows you the freedom to choose who you want to be.
What I don’t like about her is how she doesn’t admit throughout the story how she was so wrong for thinking that life was “cool” and she still talks about it like it is. Nothing cool about how generations of our people have gone to prison and or killed over dumb shit.
Exactly. Like they’re both glorifying this lifestyle. This is harmful for young impressionable minds. They should have both made it crystal clear that they don’t condone any of it and that the end result could have been much worse for her and does end up much worse for some. But then again when you’re doing meth at 15 years old, you’re frying brain cells sooo, maybe it’s asking to much.
I'm not through watching yet but I just had to pause and comment on the Nextel!!! Kids these days we'll never know...😂.. I may or may not have done extracurricular activities myself, and back in those days we even had one where you can put a code in and it would act as a scanner so we could scan for the police, and then you can just alert push the button and everybody who got an alert knew the police were on the block.. I miss the Nextel/ Boost Mobile days! I don't know why they ever did a way with those.. anyway I'm going to finish the episode. Just had to leave that comment when I saw the picture of the Nextel! Took me back to those days.. btw Bro, you have had a FIRE line up since I found your channel almost a year ago now, keep it coming bro. I always say after every episode man this was the best one. But this one is awesome! 💪😎✌️
She is not glorifying... She is not advocating the lifestyle.. the only way people like her can send the message of hope and have others relate is to be open and honest.
I grew up by the Avenues around that time, she’s a little older than me but I can say She is telling 100 percent the truth. Her story adds up. I trip out how pretty she was then and still is even though all that she’s been thru.
She’s looks even prettier now that she’s packing solid meat on her bones and got that low key bit of baby fat like a healthy woman in her twenties.. the fact that she’s a 41 yr old woman who spent 20+ years of her life on a twacked out mission and several more years in prison and is looking how she looks is a “W” on top of that it’s clear she doesn’t carry a fake facade even in the slightest she seems truly whole as a woman and a human.. her spirit isn’t cracked broken and rotten like a million other street walking drugged out bitches living in a fake fantasy who often profess that they are “strong women” but are just the opposite lol
Omg this girl took me down memory lane ! 😂 deep house , party crews , baby formula, crystal, premos, it's so crazy how everybody goes down their own pathway. I could've easily gone the gang way, but fortunately, I started throwing the parties, and that made me money and kept me away from the gangs . Fun Fact as somebody who organized parties you knew never ever throw a house party in the Avenues neighborhood 😂 somebody was getting shot or robbed there. Her voice sounds familiar too. I probably talk to her on the party line 😅
Tired of this life being glorified, especially from hardworking parents who sacrifice their life for their kids to have a better chance in life. It’s very narcissistic. Married my husband who had a daughter while in h.s. In this area. Her mother’s lifestyle was completely different than ours. He had custody but the mother abducted her & she had no US Id with multiple names after loosing custody. The daughter became entrenched in this whole mess with the help of Mexican nationals as social workers that don’t understand the Chicano neighborhoods. Our other children & this daughter’s children were all negatively affected from her activity: jumped in, drugs, drive bys theft, fraud, multiple times in juvie-prison with family raising her children. We tried to pick up the pieces, but between courts with young ignorant social services who are either ignorant, dumb, or …. I have been held at gun point in my own home by someone looking for her after moving. Gang members went after our younger kids & shot up our house. We were forced 2x to move. Things got so bad we moved states away for our children’s safety. She still lives this addictive life style & has options but doesn’t choose them. We paid too big of a price & her kids want nothing to do with her. She misses them & can’t understand how to fix it.
I LOVE how she said "hey you know what, I am an open book, because I'm so comfortable with who I am now, if you wanna judge me, go ahead" I feel that 100% 💯
Facts! I never really gave 1 fuck about anyone’s opinion or judgment.. it won’t change anything it doesn’t matter what anybody thinks or says! Lol my thoughts on that is basically Fuck You & Fuck ya judgement about me🤷🏽♂️ My life is great my bank account is full my bills are paid my family wants for absolutely nothing & I sleep like a baby at night knowing I’m truly blessed & truly great within this life I’m living🫡💯
@@UncElroyDaKang wait whattt?? 🤣🤣 Calm down uncle Elroy, Im not a single mom, I have one man who is the father of my child; one biological child and a bonus child 🤷👌
Tell you what bro, growing up in the late 80's early 90's in Chicago, these were the most loyal down females. Girls like her weren't scared to be down for thier man or take a charge. Wish they still made um like this.
Dude keeps making these weird halfway racist comments... were they drinking 40s? Lol how he asked her if her she got 5 last names lol I may b misreading this mf but he seem a lil off base on some of his comments n questions... he don't even realize it which makes me think it's def not intentional lol idk maybe he just a lil too corney
My first time watching your show. Got into this show because of Cristina. She was beautiful when she made her choice and still extremely beautiful now. Her personality and openness with her life and her story. I had a similar life in the 70's when I was growing up in Northern California. Gang by 14, selling drugs at the same time. Auto theft in tight with a meth cook for the hells angels. I am going to check out her podcast. I would love to meet her and talk. Now I've been clean and sober for 31 years.
Love my chicanas. Totally diff than ricans. They have that mative American to them amd that wild spirit cultivated from the desert. Im from south side Phoenix. I love em. Wish i still loved out there
Yup the indian blood runs strong in us. Even guero mexicans got it in them too. But rican woman along w other latinas are beautiful too. Indian, european, and black are the dominant genes in latin america of course ratios vary.
When there were drive-by shootings where I grew up in East LA, we got told to throw ourselves in the bathtub when we heard the “fireworks” and the first one that got to the bathtub won (because the bathtub was ceramic like bullet proof vests back in the day). We didn’t understand til we got much older.
She’s so pretty and sweet but make no mistake in that time the avenues and the harpys till this day are no joke to be a female associated with those gangs tells you how tough she is
OMG. This brings back memories. Born and raised in Cali. I remember three flowers grease, high feathered bangs, girls wearing dark lip liner and hoop earrings. Everyone wearing baggy jeans, pants creased.
Grew up on 60th and denker in south la my mom would tell me when u see a black man walking by to run inside lol 😂 that’s how bad the racial tension was and I don’t mean to be disrespectful just the way it was
I grew up in Lincoln Heights in the early 90’s but I was a little head. Not fully understanding the scope of danger that the streets held.. my older brother went to Franklin and is about her age.. this interview took me down memory lane! Good shit bro! 👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
I tried to get though this but that clown kept making racist comments smh I’ll watch her stuff so it can be a normal experience. They stay ignorant at all times
I grew up in El sereno right next to this girls neighborhood. It’s insane how regular it is to us in NELA, how young we were smoking crack. Early 2000’s when I was really out there, crack was literally like some keef, or some hash. I was also 15/16, buying dimes/g’s of hard, and rolling it up with my weed. Then came the meth. Also, very regular for someone 15/16 to come across some meth in east los/nela. That’s how all the car jackers stay up.
@@naturallaw1733bro meth is speed. Been around for ages. What he’s referring to is lacing everything they smoke with crack later meth. It was very common but they didn’t consider themselves “crack heads” 😅
@@naturallaw1733 (“Si ama! Soy un GRANDE crackhead! MUCHO grande!”) -16 yr old me lol. (Literally) (31 and more than 14/15 years clean today. Lost count tbh. No more skante activities for me.)
I Grew Up With The Aguirre Family in Highland Park CA. I Frequented Drew Street Because of my Crack Cocaine addiction Years ago. The Aguirres Were Nobody to F With back in the Day. ❤
I live in NELA area & yes it's changed. I remember Cristina from Jr High School. She looks the same but had short hair. Wow, what a whirlwind of a life. I'm happy to see her thrive to brighter path.
We ain’t do heavy drugs lol smoked weed & drink some henny on the weekends.. we sold heavy drugs from crack to coke pills herion because it was fast easy money where we could make 500+ in a few hours soon as we walk outside lol 😂 but that’s the environment we lived in & we adapted to our surroundings tryna make a better opportunity for ourselves which we did.. we all graduated college with masters degrees & made the best out of the life we were living 💯🫡 I’m currently enrolled working to obtain my Doctorate Degree another year & I’ll be walking that stage 1 more time the final time lol no more school for me🤣 it’s been a truly amazing & blessed life we all have lived through & to see where we are now sheeesh prime examples that you can do whatever you put your intelligent mind to🫡 Show the world your true intelligence & use it to make life better for the future generations that’s coming up behind you💯 Peace 💎👑
When this beautiful Hispanas/Chicanas go to a white man interview there should be 2 or 3 Avenues Chicanos close by trust me, he wouldn’t ask “im funny” questions
Yes i remember back in them days you became part of the gang by default. Living there made you part of it. There was no jumping in or having to go on a mission to be accepted.
You must not be from the streets in the LA area. I was born in 1981 and grew up in the Rampart area. We smoked primos and coco puffs with the homies everyday. We sold weed and crack too. If you know, you know
Bro...That's Wifey Right There!!! Independent, Intelligent, With Integrity & Empathy. A Beautiful Smile and an Equally Beautiful Soul, When I 1st saw Her, I knew She was The One. GOD Made Her My Kind of Pretty, Te Amo Boo, What do you want me to cook for dinner, I'm off early today, so it's my turn to cook, lmk when your 15mins away from home , by the store so i can get your bath ready..See You Soon Mi Reina!!
He definitely over exaggerated. What he meant: gang banging is not like it used to be. LA violent gang crime is way down, and most gangs don’t overtly fly their colors, nor are they more violence based. Gangs are much more interested in covert operations and making money. Police attention and prison is bad for business (at least on the gangs end). A suffering economy, social evolution, trial and error, and technology are direct reasons as to why this change is a continuum.
Just watch some documentaries on the Drew st, Avenues it was off the chain there. Active af and that satellite house. Crazy how they had that hood on lock.
"he handed me a shank and said 'that's yours don't ever leave the cell without it' and then he smacked me on my ass and said, "that's mine and don't you ever have your pants on in this cell' he's the reason i made it out alive and my farts just go woosh,"
I'm a product of the late 80's & early 90's , cholas are my biggest attractions when it comes to having a type of chick your into. I never joined any clicks but it was all around me. Still love them cholas
Hello 👋 I grew up there too, have so many memories from there it was very crazy back In the days lot of gun shots, drive bys and drug deals, there we’re gangsters everywhere around Drew st back In the days in groups, and police closing the neighborhood cause of shootings or raids what love the tamales 🫔 from here their good
Bro you def hit a nail on the head when you asked what it was about growing up in the 90’s that make kids from good hard working parents to get involved in shenanigans. My best guess is that since we weren’t as connected as we are now, our little worlds felt so big and finite. Our information about other places came from nightly news. She’s great❤. Very interesting life!
To them their lives were boring & was no fun in the neighborhood lol but when they came to the hood to hang with the knuckleheads & do shit that they would never be allowed to do at home!! I seen it 1st hand growing up in the hood & those from the suburbs would come around to hangout play basketball drink smoke fuck girls & do whatever they wanted to do with no worries & consequences.. that type of lifestyle we was living was fascinating for them to be apart of they loved to live that carefree no worries type of life lol I remember one of my friends said I love hanging around with y’all because I feel protected & safe & loved when I’m with y’all lol we was high as a kite but he was being honest & I respected that we still cool & still hang out together nowadays lol.. He learned valuable life lessons & life skills hanging with us even learned how to fight & shoot guns plus handle himself if anyone fucked with him🤣 I should call him right now & say you’re welcome lol imagine if we beat you up & ran you away from our hood🤣🤣 how would ya life be different without the wisdom & street knowledge we instilled in you lol.. We told you go to school & go to college & become a man💯 I feel like I raised him 🤣🤣 word up tho cause he literally was with us everyday lol but we all successful men & living great lives 🙏🏽 truly we all blessed to be together 30+ years later 🫡
@@9Ether_God it all depends on if you Survive it though... I mean, things could have turned out way different and they do for many people. you know, hanging out in the Hood and ending up in Pison or Worse etc. so much Luck comes with Life.🙏
peanutbutter is the name of that meth it was everywhere i got mines in the bay area from the vato taking his load to texas. We were allowed to sniff it but looked down upon if you smoked it in my hood. So glad to be gone from that devil !praise Gods blessings now great to see you home gurl doing you and rising up❤
So sad. She’s obviously bright, but made bad choice after bad choice. As a young law enforcement officer I always had a thing for the Cholas. I never went down that road because it was too much like forbidden fruit.

I seen grandparents and parents die living the last years with a broken heart because the children were stupid. In the 90’s I told so many of my immigrant friends that one day the government would change the laws and deport them, they needed to get their papers right before that time came. Well that time came and they all got deported. I don’t feel sorry. God kept His promise to their ancestors but they forsake God so judgment arrived. It’s all sad with gangs and drugs nothing to glorify.
lol slow your roll champ
I appreciate you.
I agree with you. My parents also sacrificed a lot, like working in sewing sweat shops, for my sister and I to make it. People like her just want to have fun at other's expense.
I’ll never understand how some children from immigrant parents join gangs and choose that lifestyle. 99% of immigrants leave their motherland to escape those kinds of things. America isn’t perfect but it’s very true that this country allows you the freedom to choose who you want to be.
Exactly, you'll never understand unless you live that life in the 90s
Her dimple❤❤❤
She's 💯 real I went to school with her
The irony of literally having a cemetery at the end of the block.
"No, No... mi hija no es Chola. she an Angel."😇 - Negra's Grandmother in the 90's👵
Her grandmother ain’t lying😅
What I don’t like about her is how she doesn’t admit throughout the story how she was so wrong for thinking that life was “cool” and she still talks about it like it is. Nothing cool about how generations of our people have gone to prison and or killed over dumb shit.
Exactly. Like they’re both glorifying this lifestyle. This is harmful for young impressionable minds. They should have both made it crystal clear that they don’t condone any of it and that the end result could have been much worse for her and does end up much worse for some. But then again when you’re doing meth at 15 years old, you’re frying brain cells sooo, maybe it’s asking to much.
I don’t think she regrets one bit all the rocks she smoked and all the dudes she smashed lol
I'm not through watching yet but I just had to pause and comment on the Nextel!!! Kids these days we'll never know...😂.. I may or may not have done extracurricular activities myself, and back in those days we even had one where you can put a code in and it would act as a scanner so we could scan for the police, and then you can just alert push the button and everybody who got an alert knew the police were on the block.. I miss the Nextel/ Boost Mobile days! I don't know why they ever did a way with those.. anyway I'm going to finish the episode. Just had to leave that comment when I saw the picture of the Nextel! Took me back to those days.. btw Bro, you have had a FIRE line up since I found your channel almost a year ago now, keep it coming bro. I always say after every episode man this was the best one. But this one is awesome! 💪😎✌️
boost mobile dollar per day was so cool and they were loud as f$ck😂
Glorifying this culture is why it will continue. In no way is being a gangster healthy for society, children.
She is not glorifying... She is not advocating the lifestyle.. the only way people like her can send the message of hope and have others relate is to be open and honest.
Yet here you are.
@@adw049right….@WonderBoy0403 what hypocrite. She is just telling her story. I love it i lived it but grew out of it
And her story is so boring
She’s telling her story (which are entertaining) & we are here to listen I wouldn’t like to go thru that
I grew up by the Avenues around that time, she’s a little older than me but I can say She is telling 100 percent the truth. Her story adds up. I trip out how pretty she was then and still is even though all that she’s been thru.
She’s looks even prettier now that she’s packing solid meat on her bones and got that low key bit of baby fat like a healthy woman in her twenties.. the fact that she’s a 41 yr old woman who spent 20+ years of her life on a twacked out mission and several more years in prison and is looking how she looks is a “W” on top of that it’s clear she doesn’t carry a fake facade even in the slightest she seems truly whole as a woman and a human.. her spirit isn’t cracked broken and rotten like a million other street walking drugged out bitches living in a fake fantasy who often profess that they are “strong women” but are just the opposite lol

True. Isn't this lady Eyecons wife/BM?
Omg this girl took me down memory lane ! 😂 deep house , party crews , baby formula, crystal, premos, it's so crazy how everybody goes down their own pathway. I could've easily gone the gang way, but fortunately, I started throwing the parties, and that made me money and kept me away from the gangs . Fun Fact as somebody who organized parties you knew never ever throw a house party in the Avenues neighborhood 😂 somebody was getting shot or robbed there. Her voice sounds familiar too. I probably talk to her on the party line 😅
Tired of this life being glorified, especially from hardworking parents who sacrifice their life for their kids to have a better chance in life. It’s very narcissistic. Married my husband who had a daughter while in h.s. In this area. Her mother’s lifestyle was completely different than ours. He had custody but the mother abducted her & she had no US Id with multiple names after loosing custody. The daughter became entrenched in this whole mess with the help of Mexican nationals as social workers that don’t understand the Chicano neighborhoods. Our other children & this daughter’s children were all negatively affected from her activity: jumped in, drugs, drive bys theft, fraud, multiple times in juvie-prison with family raising her children. We tried to pick up the pieces, but between courts with young ignorant social services who are either ignorant, dumb, or …. I have been held at gun point in my own home by someone looking for her after moving. Gang members went after our younger kids & shot up our house. We were forced 2x to move. Things got so bad we moved states away for our children’s safety. She still lives this addictive life style & has options but doesn’t choose them. We paid too big of a price & her kids want nothing to do with her. She misses them & can’t understand how to fix it.
I LOVE how she said "hey you know what, I am an open book, because I'm so comfortable with who I am now, if you wanna judge me, go ahead" I feel that 100% 💯
Facts! I never really gave 1 fuck about anyone’s opinion or judgment.. it won’t change anything it doesn’t matter what anybody thinks or says! Lol my thoughts on that is basically Fuck You & Fuck ya judgement about me🤷🏽♂️ My life is great my bank account is full my bills are paid my family wants for absolutely nothing & I sleep like a baby at night knowing I’m truly blessed & truly great within this life I’m living🫡💯

Tell you what bro, growing up in the late 80's early 90's in Chicago, these were the most loyal down females. Girls like her weren't scared to be down for thier man or take a charge. Wish they still made um like this.
Dude keeps making these weird halfway racist comments... were they drinking 40s? Lol how he asked her if her she got 5 last names lol I may b misreading this mf but he seem a lil off base on some of his comments n questions... he don't even realize it which makes me think it's def not intentional lol idk maybe he just a lil too corney
My first time watching your show. Got into this show because of Cristina. She was beautiful when she made her choice and still extremely beautiful now. Her personality and openness with her life and her story.
I had a similar life in the 70's when I was growing up in Northern California. Gang by 14, selling drugs at the same time. Auto theft in tight with a meth cook for the hells angels. I am going to check out her podcast. I would love to meet her and talk. Now I've been clean and sober for 31 years.
As a Mexican American from SC LA fuck this trash gang culture
Love my chicanas. Totally diff than ricans. They have that mative American to them amd that wild spirit cultivated from the desert. Im from south side Phoenix. I love em. Wish i still loved out there
Yup the indian blood runs strong in us. Even guero mexicans got it in them too. But rican woman along w other latinas are beautiful too. Indian, european, and black are the dominant genes in latin america of course ratios vary.
Negra is hands down a modern day Salma Hayek from the Movie Desperado! FACTS
When there were drive-by shootings where I grew up in East LA, we got told to throw ourselves in the bathtub when we heard the “fireworks” and the first one that got to the bathtub won (because the bathtub was ceramic like bullet proof vests back in the day). We didn’t understand til we got much older.
what street ?
"no, no not true. Mijo no es Cholo." - 80's/90's East LA Grandmas 😃
it true, in some areas 😂🎉🎉🎉
She’s so pretty and sweet but make no mistake in that time the avenues and the harpys till this day are no joke to be a female associated with those gangs tells you how tough she is
It almost seems like everything she says you're judging her.... I was a heroin addict at fifteen.... It's pretty common
This fool a cop
Love her! Love watching her other interviews and her show 🩷
OMG. This brings back memories. Born and raised in Cali. I remember three flowers grease, high feathered bangs, girls wearing dark lip liner and hoop earrings. Everyone wearing baggy jeans, pants creased.

Grew up on 60th and denker in south la my mom would tell me when u see a black man walking by to run inside lol 😂 that’s how bad the racial tension was and I don’t mean to be disrespectful just the way it was
Avenues were the anti black one's, blacks were not pressing the Latinos in South Central LA.
@MikeJones-pf4wd yes they were. I had a few experiences
I grew up in Lincoln Heights in the early 90’s but I was a little head. Not fully understanding the scope of danger that the streets held.. my older brother went to Franklin and is about her age.. this interview took me down memory lane! Good shit bro! 👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
I luv the way Negra talks, and she’s fine af

I think you are not legit, meth was cleaner on the 90s then is today you should know that
I grew up in El sereno right next to this girls neighborhood. It’s insane how regular it is to us in NELA, how young we were smoking crack. Early 2000’s when I was really out there, crack was literally like some keef, or some hash. I was also 15/16, buying dimes/g’s of hard, and rolling it up with my weed. Then came the meth. Also, very regular for someone 15/16 to come across some meth in east los/nela. That’s how all the car jackers stay up.
Bruvz, Meth came in the 90's mayne.
@@naturallaw1733bro meth is speed. Been around for ages. What he’s referring to is lacing everything they smoke with crack later meth. It was very common but they didn’t consider themselves “crack heads” 😅

You must not be from the streets in the LA area. I was born in 1981 and grew up in the Rampart area. We smoked primos and coco puffs with the homies everyday. We sold weed and crack too. If you know, you know

Negra is fine af .. idk why she with her husband.. he a goofy 😂
She one of those girls that dont know she can do better.
Although she may know now. She married the teletubby 5 years ago
This dude is so disconnected .. he said gang banging dont exist in LA anymore 😂😂...
He definitely over exaggerated. What he meant: gang banging is not like it used to be. LA violent gang crime is way down, and most gangs don’t overtly fly their colors, nor are they more violence based. Gangs are much more interested in covert operations and making money. Police attention and prison is bad for business (at least on the gangs end). A suffering economy, social evolution, trial and error, and technology are direct reasons as to why this change is a continuum.
Wow this brought old memories back crazy .
Just watch some documentaries on the Drew st, Avenues it was off the chain there. Active af and that satellite house. Crazy how they had that hood on lock.
"he handed me a shank and said 'that's yours don't ever leave the cell without it' and then he smacked me on my ass and said, "that's mine and don't you ever have your pants on in this cell' he's the reason i made it out alive and my farts just go woosh,"

Same here
Hello 👋 I grew up there too, have so many memories from there it was very crazy back In the days lot of gun shots, drive bys and drug deals, there we’re gangsters everywhere around Drew st back In the days in groups, and police closing the neighborhood cause of shootings or raids what love the tamales 🫔 from here their good

why is the interviewer so damn awkward wtf can he just talk to her and be cool damn
Loved this interview reminded me of 90s
Bro you def hit a nail on the head when you asked what it was about growing up in the 90’s that make kids from good hard working parents to get involved in shenanigans.
My best guess is that since we weren’t as connected as we are now, our little worlds felt so big and finite. Our information about other places came from nightly news.
She’s great❤. Very interesting life!
it's because it takes Way More Involvement in one's Life to Shield them from that type of Mess than just being 'good hard working parents'.
To them their lives were boring & was no fun in the neighborhood lol but when they came to the hood to hang with the knuckleheads & do shit that they would never be allowed to do at home!! I seen it 1st hand growing up in the hood & those from the suburbs would come around to hangout play basketball drink smoke fuck girls & do whatever they wanted to do with no worries & consequences.. that type of lifestyle we was living was fascinating for them to be apart of they loved to live that carefree no worries type of life lol I remember one of my friends said I love hanging around with y’all because I feel protected & safe & loved when I’m with y’all lol we was high as a kite but he was being honest & I respected that we still cool & still hang out together nowadays lol.. He learned valuable life lessons & life skills hanging with us even learned how to fight & shoot guns plus handle himself if anyone fucked with him🤣 I should call him right now & say you’re welcome lol imagine if we beat you up & ran you away from our hood🤣🤣 how would ya life be different without the wisdom & street knowledge we instilled in you lol..
