INSIDE THE MOST DANGEROUS HOODS IN AMERICA NYC: BROOKLYN & THE BRONX | GANG CRIME MURDERS OF AMERICA
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 жов 2023
- I recently visited America and went to the most dangerous unique hoods in New York City, Hunts Point in The Bronx and Fort Greene, Brooklyn. In this eye-opening documentary, we'll go beyond the headlines to uncover the stories of these communities and the dedicated individuals working to create positive change and avoid tough and dangerous prison to dangerous city like chicago. From meeting gang member to rappers, towns where murders are a common thing. While these neighbourhoods have faced their own set of challenges, the people here are resilient, and their sense of community is truly inspiring. Our mission is to showcase the real stories, the everyday heroes, and the efforts being made to enhance these areas. If you've been inspired by creators like Tommy G and Hoodvlogs, who have shone a light on community stories, you won't want to miss this exploration of Hunts Point and Fort Greene.
Be sure to check out our previous educational documentary on New Orleans, "The Murder Capital of America," as we delve deeper into the causes and solutions surrounding crime in America.

Come to St. Louis
y my nigga dont come back to new york or somthing might happen.
Go to Jackson Mississippi and google it
Hunts point was worse in the 80s and 90s. Now it's probably more chill. I'm from the Bronx I know
Change the title.. they are not dangerous.. they look like bunched clowns..
30 and still playing the block is crazy
Imagine being an old ass man n talking about poverty and lack of opportunities while standing in the corner the whole day🤦♂️
exactly like get a life
@@itsniyademi He'll snap out of it...
That’s the streets and it’s sad 😢
@itsniyademi
They can fool little girls with that macho bad man character but not no grown woman
Imagine being a 30 year old man hanging out on street corners with kids, and thinking you haven't wasted your life. SMH.
all over philly NE
It’s New York buddy everyone be outside wit family don’t matter the age 😂
A waste of time is when u lived ur entire life without worshipping God.😮 U won't be given a second chance to come back to Earth.😮
I'm from the Bronx and grew up in a time before anyone in this video was born. NY was worse back in the days and only the strong survived. I've seen things and experienced things that would make these young ones terrified.
Ain’t even bout a waste of ur life this New York mfs do what they gotta do to survive sometimes it’s da only shit easy way but dangerous sometimes mfs ain’t grow up in good neighborhoods or having anything so they take da streets n it’s da only thing they know and just stay on that and age don’t matter out there we all treat each other as family grown up in da same block n everything u sound like a meat rider lol u wouldn’t even last in da hood🤣💯
That young man said something that went over y'all heads. He said in NY nobody is allowed to have gun, the criminals already know this and that's why they are bold to rob people because they know law abiding citizens are not allowed to have guns. Then he said if you know the owner of a convenient store is armed, you're not going to try to rob him.
That's why they legalized in concealed carry in nyc this summer
Man i got homies from NY and i tell them all the time you better check yourself if you come to CT cuz you will get your wig split thinking NY civilians are similar
@@TrenchbabyMel203wtf is a pa citizen to a ny civilian😭😭😭 u just said anything lmfaooo
@@jayebk3306 What are you talking about?
The firearm mortality rate is 500% higher in New Mexico and 300% higher in Texas than in New York. Shut up
This is so embarrassing to my people. Disgusting to the glorifying of violence and killing. To see the excitement they have for it. So the pride they have in their situation to the point they don’t even want to leave a sh*t situation bc they’re happy with this being all they know
That's why it's important to be active in your community and instill values that don't align with violence. The difference between any of us and them are a bit of luck, and hope.
You don’t know how it is having a neglectful life with no help that’s where they all come from they get family issues and try and help because nobody is helping them the city declines help when they look for it and they hand together a lot of gangs didn’t start as gangs they started as protesters and movements u never been where they was I was when I was younger And they’re right that teenage age people really do need help it isn’t embarrassing to protect what you consider family please stfu
Right I watch it and I am so disgusted
No its sad reality in US
I mean if you grow up and live in an enviornment like this you can get used to it, Life goes on. Sure its bad but its normal
If any of you guys from New York reading this, just know that rap is NOT the way out. You can do dozens of other things that are better for your community and they will make you rich. Also, you will have a way out of this lifestyle because no one deserves to live in this.
Facts
Rap is a death sentence
Like what?
@@chrisg4514lol you lost asf asking that, stay in school
@@chrisg4514bro there's hella things to do... like me I do UA-cam and while learning YT I learned music production. Now I make beats for ppl om the side and do animations on YT and make decent money. Also before any of this I did screen printing which ima about to restart doing to sell merch from the YT. So many hustles out here you dnt gotta bang at all and I'm sure I make more bread then 99% of hood kids on the block and noone even knows cus I'm low key with it
Crazy part is, NY was way worse back in the days. Especially Fort Greene.
It’s still dangerous, but Brooklyn before it got gentrified was different …
Isn't New York where Wall Street is ?
How are multi millionaires able to operate in "crime fested" New York?
Bro Brownsville crown heights and Flatbush are bad fort Greene ain’t even like that
U chattin these hoods ain’t even like that all the hoods he just named is where it get really active espically the floss and the ville
@CBlixk6300 bruh these 🥷 not from NY
Yeah when I think about hoods in bk I think of east ny, b ville, crown heights, Canarsie, bed stuy of course. Greene was worse years ago.
If any of these guys make it to senior years, they will regret so much of this.
I doubt it . they live for today and have never grown up.
@leesmusic1 agreed . my next door neighbor is 7 and he's Einstein compared to these morons
@leesmusic1 agreed .
The crazy part is these niggas will get life all 10 years in there on demon time year 15 they wanna change smh
Or maybe they’ll become rappers and glorify it even more
You are an incredibly talented journalist! Any one of your videos puts vice to shame. Fascinating content and man, I feel for a great many of these people.
Wish my people would wake up and do something with themselves...always on the block but dont own the block ..i used to be in the streets heavy then all my ppls started droppin like flies i knew there was more to life so i changed ....hope they will get it too ..get the l.i. to carry ...
Good advice 💯
You know what’s crazy… he’s actually smart but his circumstances got em temporarily stuck.
You hella right bro
They are all smart but there mind is clouded
Your standard for what is “smart” is incredibly low then.
@@beez9525 It’s not an standard is being able to point out the wisdom in a shitty environment. Smh
They are literal morons dude what the hell are you talking about lol
Haven’t started this video yet but before I do I just wanna say you put out some of the best content I’ve seen. Raw and real as can be! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
These are a bunch of broken kids that probably grew up without a father. Insecure of themselves, afraid of their egos being misinterpreted. Afraid of facing the real world out there.
The whole having "ops" thing is really sad as most folks have more in common than they think but the one dude said it, " it's jealousy" the hood is full of it and people want the easy way out not realizing that the "easy way" all to often turns out to be the hardest and most costly way of them all. I wish we could end poverty in America. It's the foundation of the hood and everything that comes with it. Lots of good people suffering in silence. It's sad.
I am going to be very honest and informative with you. The new generation of kids, teen, and young adults of NYC today are merely imitating gang culture that started in Los Angeles. Much like they imitate southern Hip Hop, which is heretic! They create these fake "Opps" as they say -- in order to justify their gang activity of which really has no basis or justification at the core.
How is someone’s personal choices the systems fault? People could live nice if they wanted to. They choose not to. This has nothing to do with racism or poverty. It has to do with criminal culture being taught.
@@ARTinDECAY it starts with poverty. We are not all born at the starting line of life and therefore are not afforded the same opportunities. It created generation after generation of people who were never even made aware of their potential, yet alone achieving it. I agree the criminal aspect is ltaught but when you're surrounded by people who know no other way then that's what you learn. the foundation of it all is poverty. It starts there.
@@ethanwilliam9944 You're statement about it starting with poverty is not entirely true. Culture is equally if not more responsible. This is why you can have people, young people that have never known poverty get sucked into a completely different world of violence, drugs, criminality in general.
There's endless examples of impoverished nations and regions across the world were you don't see the types of lifestyles, levels of violence etc that we see in America.
Most of what we witness is downstream from culture.
Billion dollar industries have been formed with the sole interest of perpetuating and capitalizing on this culture.
@@ethanwilliam9944india for example has a 30% poverty rate. You never see gang culture being glorified there! Even the impoverished people there are doing menial jobs breaking their backs tryina make ends meet. Yet the poorest in india lead a quality of life which is a million times worse than the average impoverished youth living in some 2 bedroom flat in a high rise in new york. This shits cultural, not just because of poverty.
Shiiit nice to see you in front of the camera, keep it up liking the new format of content
You are bold man keep up the good work be careful
In the 70s Hunts Point and Fort Greene where crazy. Nobody in their right mind walked around there if you weren’t from there. There was a lot of murders. Glad it has changed even though it has a small ways to go, it’s definitely better than in the past.
Even til the 90’s it was DANGEROUS AF
The 90s to 😂😂
Please more “welcome to” hood videos. It honestly helps me learn of y I can’t be going down the path that I’m currently going down.
😂😂😂
that’s a dumbass perspective bro. Just stop watching these vids and fill your mind with positive content and maybe you won’t go down that path. What you consume feeds your thoughts, and your thoughts create your reality.

Listen don't get into this lifestyle its a waste of time. Build your self esteem ans self worth!
Damn... Glad I'm not living like that.. Shits depressing
It is depressing don’t let em fool you its not the place to wanna stay in like they make it seem
It’s just all they know

You are right they ain't never really in it till they praying in submission
Lost souls… May they all find some light through God 🙏🏽

I don’t even wanna imagine how bad nyc was in the 70s/80s/90s it was a war zone then. Now it calmed down a lot like almost every major large U.S. city
Probably only calmed down because it’s so hard to get away with things now since the police so active
Bro what, weren’t there like 30 cities that broke their records murder wise the last 3-4 years? 😂😂 just because NYC and LA are much safer than in the past, doesn’t mean other cities are like that.
@@Oscar-hp7umyup nyc is a tourist attraction which is part of the reason why police are so active.
NYC, LA, and DC only got better Philly still bad(they just beat the homicide record from 93) Baltimore still bad, NOLA still bad, houston, Chicago.. etc
@@s.jproductions2877 Baltimore, Philly are bad bad bad. Philly is the grimiest looking city. It crazy out there
Born and raised in NYC… these are def not the most dangerous… You should have went to Brownsville
The Bronx is def the worse part of nyc. Including upstate
Nobody brave enough to roam bville 🤣💀🤣
@@Dreweybaby 🤣🤣
@@Slim545upstate isn’t in nyc?
@@Dreweybabyexactly they be forgetting who the real Steppas.
This is the perfect example of fake friends. If 1 went to prison they would forget about him just like that.
u definetely think the crackheads who act gangsta in chicago are the real gangsta but they kids were born in america there parents were born in america their grand parents were born in america and they think they gangstas😂😂😂😂😂😂
I doubt it they actually go hard for each other
My ex is in prison most of his friends won’t speak to him before he got locked up we were talking and then I cpumtined to talk to him now … but some will it depends on the relationship each individual has
So many up and coming rap artists telling us to stay tuned as we patiently wait for their mix tapes to drop. Exciting times for sure!
Uh no. Most of them be lucky to see their 20th birthday

great content let's goooooo!! I'm excited for this episode
These need to be longer boss
He’s back 🔥
Thanks for this video From hood 🤙🏻
Loving your content... need that back pack.
This is sad on so many levels. I wish these young men would understand that life is a gift. Sad, extremely sad.
Everyone can change; I used to think gang was all I had but your friends will betray you, your lovers will leave you.. there options brothers. You just have to start somewhere bless
Factsssss
A fake Gang thinking because nobody from the US is from the streets, go to PR with your ID or Mexico those are real fucking street they chop ya ass.
this is fire ngl
This is amazing, thank them for our job security 😉.
this is crazy, it's like some classic film. Everyone just keeps on breaking out into song/ Rap
this is so sad that they willingly participate in this. it’s literally some sort of mental illness to stand on corners watching every car because you know someone wants to kill you.. over what? territory? that you don’t own? temporary money? money that’s not even making you rich. only 2 ways out in this life, dead or jail. and they’re fine with that outcome
Thank you
People use "mental illness" far too loosely these days. They're just losers, plain and simple.
It’s not mental illness it’s insecurity if they only had a mentor someone who took the role showed them someone cared lead them into a trade like plumbing union or electrical show them they can live rich legally explain they have the power to give their sons the life they didn’t get chance to have with just a ged things might be diff
@@ncruz591tbh I ain’t have no role model nothing I could’ve went the gang way but I’m not an idiot only idiots/followers seek into that type of like a small percent been through the worst but alot do it for attention, looks, nd that makes you an idiot
Its ignorance and a lack of a childhood, these grown men act like highschoolers, they havent seen shit, they havent got hobbies, they havent gone to the mountains to snowboard, or visited other countries and seen the cultures and lifestyles other people live around the world, they just stay in a dark ass area of a city and never leave; theyre stuck in a childs mentality, a child who hasnt learned a lot about life.
Good video
*Can you do one of these here in Harlem, NY* you valid 😭
Rough lives, sadness, sorrow, lost, most don't even know what love is but even more so you don't have to act badass and cuss all the damn time and carry a gun to be important!!
My dad was one of them, Uncle Mike Tyson is another.
Two badass powerful men by the lock of their eyes they're not to be messed with. I hope one day these young men find a real future. Everyone deserves that❤
I love your videos! So real and shows the true state of America.
wooow im truly impressed
more videos bout nyc!
the end was hilarious
Its amazing these guys are large toddlers.
Son 30 with 20 year olds smh
There's at least one guy like that in most hoods lol the older head
They the same generation 😂wtf
I understand this is sad, but it's also very wholesome. These guys actually seem like really chill people. I do hope nothing stands in their way of success. The jealousy, greed, and just diabolical behavior is what causes the problems. The first guy you spoke to was surprisingly very smart. I can only imagine how much better off these guys would be if they actually tried to finish school and went to college or into some kind of trade.
Trust theyre not chill people, they are bums and always harass people, if u live in the city youd know, its like a bunch of little bad ass boys who never grew up or made shit of themselves, theyre pathetic.
I've walked and photographed both of those neighborhoods - as well as others in the South Bronx, East New York, etc. Almost every single interaction I have is positive and you realize that, deep down, people are people - and they just want to live a good life. There are a lot of good people in these 'hoods.
Most idiotic statement ever made.
tf is so wholesome about this?
😂😂😂 ur joking right?
You crack me up man. 😂😂😂😂😂👍
Salutes from hoodz of NEW ZEALAND
If you from New York never tell anyone you from the Bronx you saying you poor and broke
U dumb the most drippy city in NY
u clearly arent from ny.. some affluent parts of the bronx exist especially in the north
I like how the thumbnail is of Dumbo Brooklyn, the safest part of the borough
Facts
A lack of positive male adult influences is truly an American "tragedy"😮😢🙏.
Yeah that’s cap. There’s not one neighborhood in NYC that is remotely considered one of the most dangerous hoods in America 😂 also East New York and Brownsville are the most dangerous neighborhoods in NYC
That's not what he said..he says worst hood in NY. YALL downies
@@triple_gem_shiningyeah, he said that in the video. Also keep on reading, I also said East New York and Brownsville more dangerous than those neighborhoods in the vid
Farrock
💯💯💯💯
Go to Brownsville, East New York, or South Bronx NY still definitely has some of the worst hoods in America.
Everybody was going crazy when the kid was rapping in Spanish, but he really wasn't saying anything amazing. He was basically saying how he was going to kill people and they were snitches lmao....que tontería 😂
👍

The bang on them job applications crazy how they think holding block is cool
Sad tht grown men smoke wit children but homie said in the beginning of tha video those type of kids need to be guided🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
It’s regular in the hood nun to do about it cuz we was doing the same 🤷🏾♂️
Ironically the photo in the thumbnail is of DUMBO (BK) which is actually one of the more fancy and expensive parts of BK
Everyone knows that. It’s just a thumbnail depicting a part of Brooklyn.
Wow I grew up around there. It was wild crazy back then. Luckily nothing terrible has ever happened to me when I lived there.
All them hand signs 😂 reminds me of Gringos Christmas. " You got cramps in your hands?" 😂😂😂
The degeneration of our country before our eyes is startling, scary, and depressing.
Bunch of ignorance
First guy speaking 💯
It's crazy, the time people can just waste on stuff that doesn't matter at all when you have one life to live.
WELCOME TO HUNT$ POINT 🗽💚🧨
🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴

I meet a couple homeboys 💙 over there on that strip
THAT DUDE SAID HE WAS 30 , AND STILL ACTING LIKE HE 16 🤣
Slow ass he's a lost case
Your man at 08:35 looks like Liverpool's Trent!
Bro in the green raps with K Bandz he harddd
Dude literally googled “worst neighborhoods in NYC” and got the 1980’s answers and never investigated further. HP and Fort Green were bad in the 80’s and 90’s. Now? They not really like that.
Yea he was supposed to go to Brownsville
Ngl I’m frm bk so I could only speak on fort green. Shit def be popping off in fort green it ain’t the craziest area but fasho ain’t sweet over there
@@ddchoppa8803nobody thinks this tbh, it's just so gentrified now tho. I ain't sayin it like it's smthn cool but Flatbush, East New York, Brownsville are much more dangerous neighborhoods nowadays.
Nah Hunts Point def still gritty, it's always among the most dangerous hoods in the towns. You def right on Fort Greene tho, it's mad calm and gentrified now, shit really only goes down in the projects.
You forgot about Brownsville and East New York! Now those neighborhoods are the most dangerous.
Yea Back in the 90s and early 2000s those places were hectic now that’s filled with Jews 😂
Facts. Every summer is like Iraq in ENY! They had a shoot out right outside my workplace. Hookers running a wild. Rats the size of pitbulls. They got new buildings popping up by Linden Movie Theater. They trying but most of the gentrification happened over by Linwood and Starret City..ages ago. Gateway Mall is new but...and got those new homes down there but no sir. Still got to watch yourself.
@@LouGetPaidBrownsville and east New York is definitely not filled with Jews LMAOO
@@LouGetPaidYou chatting 🤡 no Jews in Brownsville or ENY.
You ain’t from no trenches, You went to private school all ur life..
Bros energy is immasive 😂lot of adrenalin within him.
💯 I like their crew
Wow, most definitely not the NYC or Hunts Point that I remember from the 70's, 80's, and 90's! The real NYC is but a cherished memory...
But the murder rates was way higher back then though. It’s still safe in murder rate terms. Although a lot of random shit has been happening more.
Why do ya old people lie about this type of stuff😂
@@robmalcolm8042 I don't mean by murder rate, because that is nothing to brag about. I mean about the demographic nowadays. They try so hard and are obviously imitators, wherein the real NYC had nothing but originators!
@@RandomFlavor oh your right about that. Those days had the cliques and real nyc gangs not that blood, crip or Latin king stuff that’s not even from New York. Trinintarios is like the only one that’s similar to those but actually did start in NYC. Still nothing compares to the old days.
@@robmalcolm8042 The "Trinitarios" started in jail during the early 90's to protect themselves from the mass oppression they were victims of. The "Latin Kings"formed in jail & prison during the 80's as well to fight against Black (5%er) oppression. The real New York City street gangs like the "Savage Nomads" "Savage Skulls" "Black Spades" etc etc had come to an end by 1978. From that point -- NYC then had "Crews" fashioned in the Mafia style up until the late 80's. Then in 1994 Black inmates @ Rikers Island started the "United Blood Nation without permission from California. This ushered in the whole West Coast gang imitations you see now in NYC...
I’m living in hunts point and it’s not even that bad only problem is that our blocks be dirty as hell tbh

His son might not even live upto 17 or 18 with that lifestyle
I've been to NYC several times and Black's/Mexican/Puerto Rican/Dominican/Cuban/Haitian/Jamaican all live in Harlem/Bronx/Brooklyn and they all look the same in skin tone. Unless, they open their mouth and start talking you won't know who is who

there’s always one who’s itching to start rapping😂
All are terrible aswell
The end “can u chill” 😂
Fascinating watching a documentary on humans.
This is lit, need more of this! NYC stand tf up
That guy was speaking facts
no he was not they too old to be doing ts like it’s trashy and depressing 😂😂
I love these guys!!!!!!
I love my city !! Wish it was better for us but that’s our energy
A first world country energy 😂😂 go to PR and you will see real fucking ghetto.
"I'd die for this hood"
The same one that has you trapped and left you on the floor😂
Bad blood leads to bad blood. The cycle will keep on repeating for many decades...
When I've been out photographing these neighborhoods, the people I've met are almost always polite, curious, and even ask me to take photos themselves. This vid is just one side of life in these neighborhoods. It's a big part of life, but there's also a lot more to life there, too.
They use to have a strip joint in Hunt's Point called the Wedge. We use to go back there in the late 90's early 2000's.
VIRAL 💚🚀
Broo como puedo ver el you tube del chamaquitoo❤
Alot of kids love the hood love the way the code yea I was one of them kids loved the street life still carry the hammer but sometimes you gotta explore find out what you missing
Well that how it is. Older guys do a little something for you put money in your pocket and help you put food on the table for your people then you get deeper and deeper into it. Then what you gonna do? Betray the people who helped when no one else would? It's easy to get trapped in that street mentality. That is why they might seem like they want the best for you but they just want loyal shooters.
It’s all they know if you show them different than they will do something different, if all your friends dying daily violence drugs and chaos is all your around you’re gonna gravitate towards it one way or another
you are a natural and noone said hey where's that accent from?
The future for New York looks bright with these upstanding fine young men.
the 2nd guys he interviewed are great guys i can tell just caught up the life. :(
Adults hanging around the block all day? Is that really going hard and providing for your loved ones. BUMs!!!!!
Bruh you should have sneaked in a "yu heard what i said" phrase mid interview
I love how they try to act so tough but I garuntee you put them in the wilderness they wouldn’t last a day
Please do one of these on philly 🙏
