If you back out hit up 29th st between alvernon and craycroft, then grant road between craycroft and 1st then go up 1st to Ft Lowell. Go further south than the hood in this video around 6th Ave and 12th Ave between 22nd st and Valencia Rd. The hood in this video are dead they been regentrificated or something
None of the areas you drove by, at least in the first five minutes, denote Tucson's worst hood. You missed by a lot. Most of the houses in the Barrios are owned by hard-working second or third generation Mexican-american families. Just because the home design doesn't fit the typical cookie cutter house in subdivisions, doesn't mean it's bad. Go to Grant and Alvernon if you wanna see a derelict area infested with drug use.
@@maryewillburn158 you look at the property value of some of those, and they're well into the mid-500's, if not more. Very well curated properties. Diane Keaton owns/owned a property on Cushing and 17th. How is that a hood?!
@@ramsesrocha2799 It's not. He was probably told by someone who doesn't like the area that it was. Just because some don't keep their property up does not mean the whole neighborhood is bad with crime and drugs. I have been by these streets and they are friendly and nice. I've been here for 20+ yrs and have lived in a couple of really bad areas and have never been hurt or scared to walk around. But desert is different from suburban areas. I sympathize with how you feel.
Yupp! Most of these spots he drove thru are by downtown, the neighborhood are just really old old but if you want crime tours or go thru grant and alvernon, prince and oracle, you'll see some activities but tucson is still a great city, I'm 40 years old, I lived on the west side half my life and currently reside on south side.
As a native Tucsonan, Tucson's "Worst Hoods" aren't bad at all. Especially compared to the other videos I've seen on this channel, i.e: Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Philadelphia, etc.
@ColorMeOakland Some of them can look a lot better on the inside. I lived in a third world country, the Philippines, for years; the houses almost always look crap on the outside in the working class neighborhoods, but really good on the inside. It's all about how you carry yourself and take care of what little you have.
Born and raised in Tucson … bro you should’ve consulted me this isn’t even on the list of places I would’ve told you to go. Who gave you this information? These aren’t even the hoods you filmed
The Southwest ghettos have a very uncanny “something tells me I need to gtfo” dark feel about them. I was homeless in South Mountain Phoenix; and I could write a book on some of the wicked things I’ve witnessed out there
This was fun to watch! First 3 mins accurate but then you stepped into area's of Barrio Veijo, a historical neighborhood, that we can't say is anywhere near the worst. At 3:12, that house sold in April of 2021 for $519K with so many scattered throughout the neighborhood including one that sold for $2.2M in October of 2021. Wish you could have made a right on Convent Ave at 5:10. Did someone say gentrification haha? Oracle and Grant @7:43, accurate. Like someone said below, Grant and Alvernon, should of visited Santa Rita Park just left of 22nd @9:22.
Sir, I am not sure why you titled this "worst hoods" when you basically drove down alleys and older areas of the Grant/northside/downtown area. These areas are where you will find quite a few older homes that are either being renovated or torn down but they are definitely not the "hood". Apparently, the title is clickbait and I fell for it even though I know better as a native. Better luck next time.
@@muneymaker9624 It seems as though you have a different idea of what is bad and what is not. Seeing homeless people in an area does not make the area bad. I was born and raised here (Tucson) that is all the research I need right there sir/ma'am. Housing projects also do not make an area a bad one neither. I hesitate to think what you may constitute as little gangsters but I digress. Thank you for your comment. Blessings.
The homelessness and drug addiction is out of control. There are several parks in this city where nobody can enjoy because it's filled with druggies, shirtless/shoeless weirdos, and homeless. There are entire intersections (major ones too) where you cannot really go because you will be harassed by homeless people for beer/cigarettes/weed/money.
Its sad reading these comments people from Tucson not even knowing the history of the neighborhood he drives at 1:08 there was an old housing project that was knocked down in 2000 by the name of Connie Chamber Homes and another housing project right across the street by the name of Reforma maybe the neighborhood isn't as bad as it was but a very big homeless community is a 10 minute walk from that neighborhood and not only that the park it has in that neighborhood is filled with homeless people have no idea how bad that neighborhood actually is I had to get me and my kids out of there because of how bad those little gangsters got bad at one point literally its one of the oldest neighborhood in Tucson maybe you should do research before you say that area isn't bad
Born in Tucson, there are hoods for sure but nothing like some of the other big cities across the country. Tucson was and is a city with some good things and some bad things, haven't been home in quite some time though. Proud to be from Tucson and look forward to coming home sometime soon. Thanks for showing my hometown.

Most of the poorer neighborhoods don't have A/C. They have swamp coolers. They are ineffective when the humidity is high. and of some marginal help when it is dry.
Let me tell something , l am living in Kuwait and Kuwait has the highest hot weather in the world , you can google it , living in this country is normal and we get used to it , and those people in this hood got used with this humid and hot weather
They get used to it. My fathers side of the family is from Arizona so I visited a lot over the span of my life. It's hot all day and night, so there's no easing into it. It's just the way it is. The last time I was there was 14 years ago and I remember walking out of the hotel at 7.AM, it felt like someone put a god damn hair dryer on my entire body. It was ridiculous. Just a wall of heat hitting me.

@@ramsesrocha2799 I would say if he went more central Tucson even more towards the east side he could have seen the hoods. People have more or less migrated to 29th or fort Lowell and Oracle
Born and raised here. It's mostly quiet because it's hot as fuck out. Mostly everyone who is active in the streets gets out at night. Also no Grant and Alvernon? Dodge and Fort Lowell? Many more places in Tucson worst off than near A mountain and Silverbell.
I've lived in most of the cities featured on this channel. I grew up in Birmingham as a kid on the East Side, lived in Detroit as a young professional, and in Tucson as a student, and I can say that Tucson is nowhere near as bad as bigger cities back east. I would frequently go to the South Side at night with friends and get tacos and smoke weed with randos from tinder. Tucson is a great place if you are working class, smart with your money and you don't mind the heat.
People mention the heat but don’t mention the tornadoes, earthquakes, flooding, mosquitos and cockroaches of other places. We have heat 3 months out of the year and when we’re working we come home to cooler nights and do stuff in those 3 months that’s it. No problem.
I am 22 years old I am from Russia I do not care about the disagreements between our countries I express great respect to America for giving the world hip hop in the 90s, peace to you
So sorry to know your people are suffering participating by force in a war they didn’t choose to be in. I pray to Almighty God you can get a better leader for your future generations. The same thing for this country my home. I hold presidents to higher grounds for making wrong choices but we need to be shopping for leaders like shopping for a Diamond. Look into their past and resume bc it’s not all by what they say but what they have done that has to do with how they will be for us if Ho eat or phonies.

Yeah a lot of the gangs are og mexicans that rather jus smoke weed and chill then go on drills its the lil teenagers runnin around wit guns tryna prove themselves that gets ppl hurt or killed
3:53, good ol' barrio viejo (old neighborhood). I reside in the yellow aparments to the right and been doing so since 1995 (California native). Overall not a bad neighborhood but you do get the occasional lead foot once in a while. Thanks for the video!

Six minutes in I think I saw a human. Cool to see it compared with Juarez. Despite the poverty and barbed wire in Juarez, it was more colourful and seemed more cared for than these areas of Tucson. So many neighborhoods in America have no people about, which is sketchy.
Those Mormon hoods are the real deal. If you don't watch your back four of them will sneak up on your on their bikes and talk to you about the lord for 4 hours. Time you'll never get back.
Keep up the goodwork Charlie and stay safe! Just 2 questions: Any plans to go back to film NYC ? / Why don't you make an instagram page to promote your videos ? i think it will be nice and also interesting/attractive for the social media people to see where you go and interview the hoods Greetings from The Netherlands
All of Tucson is adjacent to one neighborhood that is unkept and two blocks away is a historical section of fine well kept manicured yards and structures.
How do we compare? Tucson's rate of homicide per 100,000 residents of 6.1 was the fourth-highest among peer western MSAs in 2020. And it's has gone up .
If you want to see the "crazy people" start at Laos center on the Southside hop a bus to rondstat then take a bus to tohono center there's some real characters that hop on and off those busses especially because they're doing free rides until 2022
2 years later, and Tucson's streets have not improved. The government has been highly deficient in keeping up with them. The roads on the south side are starting to turn into gravel...
@@Mardasee 120° is the highest it gets and when it does get that hot we are asked to stay home or go to cooling centers, if we do not have air conditioners most here have swamp coolers they have water pumped to hay filter pads and air blown over them to cool the room or house, so they are only good till the 90° then you suffer why we have cooling centers. I love the winters and fall here, but sometimes it gets really cold still love it, you can always put on more warm clothing, in summer you can only take off what you have on for decency lol. So if you like warm weather it a nice place to be.
I’m confused. What is your point with this video just to drive through working class neighborhoods to show what? What poverty looks like; what disinvestment looks like? Doesn’t make sense to me.
I live in south Tucson , I've seen dudes get head get stomped , lots of fights , a shooting , multiple white cover sheet body's cover for homicide side , so yeah the Southside is pretty dangerous.
Bro what.. None of the places you drove around were ghetto. In fact, some celebrities have homes in some of the “hoods” you drove around in like Barrio Viejo
Looks beautiful compared to the crowded, destroyed Northeast hoods. Grass lawns, individual houses, everyone owns a car (and off-street parking!), construction that wasn't already falling apart 100 years ago. Not bad.
It’s really not that bad. I love Arizona. It’s not for everyone tho. Very lonely vibes, everything is trying to kill you, the plants, bugs, animals, the heat, drugs. But, if you’re an independent, outdoorsy type, you might love it. Desert, mountains, forest, skiing, You can go off-road or desert exploring just about wherever you want and discover old Indian ruins, petroglyphs, old abandoned mining equipment, random graves out in the desert. Love Arizona but it’s not for city/tribal type folks.

The way who knows who is moving in from the open border less than a hundred miles away, I doubt it's gonna take that long. I saw so many changes this past year I left Tucson after 20 years and moved to Florida.
Yup that little bigg city tucson az aka la tusa born and raised down here. the city is nice overall it can get pretty wild in certain areas tho tucson gots it's hoods/Barrios and area's hints West tucson. Some parts of East and most of South tucson midtown and North also has its areas. Gracias for the video tho homie 👍🔥
What I learned about the roads from this video is the difference between Midwest and northeast and Tucson AZ is that the roads are both ****ked but for very different reasons

@@ramsesrocha2799 I would say if he went more central Tucson even more towards the east side he could have seen the hoods. People have more or less migrated to 29th or fort Lowell and Oracle
So true!
@@ramsesrocha2799 please come check out our channel more coming soon ua-cam.com/video/XKNyIInlFQE/v-deo.html
Reid park😂 santa Rita Park 4th and 22nd if you Wana see something
Born and raised here. It's mostly quiet because it's hot as fuck out. Mostly everyone who is active in the streets gets out at night. Also no Grant and Alvernon? Dodge and Fort Lowell? Many more places in Tucson worst off than near A mountain and Silverbell.
We have a house in that A mt area and friends and they have lived there 40+ yrs and love their place too.
not many ppl out n about, must be to hot.
Agree
People have things to do besides people watch.
Tucson hoods look like Mexico but with wider streets.
I've lived in most of the cities featured on this channel. I grew up in Birmingham as a kid on the East Side, lived in Detroit as a young professional, and in Tucson as a student, and I can say that Tucson is nowhere near as bad as bigger cities back east. I would frequently go to the South Side at night with friends and get tacos and smoke weed with randos from tinder. Tucson is a great place if you are working class, smart with your money and you don't mind the heat.
Yeah fr i feel like it gets a bad rep cus of the druggies and how dirty it is but aslong as u not one of the junkies u can make it in dis city 😂
How is it compared to Pontiac?
People mention the heat but don’t mention the tornadoes, earthquakes, flooding, mosquitos and cockroaches of other places. We have heat 3 months out of the year and when we’re working we come home to cooler nights and do stuff in those 3 months that’s it. No problem.
Missed Grant and Alvernon also 29th and Craycroft.
Just sayin.
Stone and Glenn too.. lol
Yes! So true!
@@queenkinky definitely!
Right
Grant and dodge is a must
How many miles does your car have since you been traveling very far places
I'm wondering the same too
Uh....I'm sure he flys into places close to where he's going and rents cars
It’s a tax write off lol
I am 22 years old I am from Russia I do not care about the disagreements between our countries I express great respect to America for giving the world hip hop in the 90s, peace to you
So sorry to know your people are suffering participating by force in a war they didn’t choose to be in. I pray to Almighty God you can get a better leader for your future generations. The same thing for this country my home. I hold presidents to higher grounds for making wrong choices but we need to be shopping for leaders like shopping for a Diamond. Look into their past and resume bc it’s not all by what they say but what they have done that has to do with how they will be for us if Ho eat or phonies. Trump risked his life for his people and is still risking his life for us. Trump 2024!
It's not the neighborhood that makes it bad it's the people in the neighborhood that make it bad
Cool vid but missed some definite hot spots. Fort lowell and oracle grant and alvernon are straight packed with zombies roaming at all hours of the day
OMG LMAO your funny, but come to think about it maybe there are a few zombies roaming around there abouts!
looks like a warm but nice place to live in, the night must be more dangerous, i could be wrong, grettings from Brazil 🇧🇷
It is very nice and not toooo hot
I lived there 2 years. I would love to go back and stay
It's honestly not bad.. this part of tucson has literally the best food lol.. But the city itself is beautiful.
@@robinscarborough6969 are there beaches close or are they too far away?
@@Blount2011 I love real food, I think there should be more trees in town I didn't see many in the video
Doubt there are any beaches near by unless there's a small lake.
This is a good solid area, you should do some research before you make an uninformed video. Thank you
Dude bugofff there's hoods everywhere even in Tucson stop acting like there isn't foh 🤡🤡
@@byronbenguche you should see the north east... The hoods in Tucson are Nothing compared to it. Saw people sharing needles in broad Daylight in Philly once.. literally near colleges. This place looks beautiful compared to it.
Its sad reading these comments people from Tucson not even knowing the history of the neighborhood he drives at 1:08 there was an old housing project that was knocked down in 2000 by the name of Connie Chamber Homes and another housing project right across the street by the name of Reforma maybe the neighborhood isn't as bad as it was but a very big homeless community is a 10 minute walk from that neighborhood and not only that the park it has in that neighborhood is filled with homeless people have no idea how bad that neighborhood actually is I had to get me and my kids out of there because of how bad those little gangsters got bad at one point literally its one of the oldest neighborhood in Tucson maybe you should do research before you say that area isn't bad
@@muneymaker9624 facts
That is a solid neighborhood I've lived in it for damn near 25 years
Oh shit,he drove up on 11th Ave and Grant.Now that's ghetto.I don't live too far from there.That Circle K on Grant and Oracle super ghetto lmao
Tucson is not ghetto! Poverty doesn’t make it ghetto!
My grandfather lives in Tucson, he told me when I visited him, as long as you mind your buisness you'll be fine.
The gangs down there supposedly aren't very active, and they are fighting each other, not civilians
True
Just keep your head down don't mess with people and you'll be fine
Yeah a lot of the gangs are og mexicans that rather jus smoke weed and chill then go on drills its the lil teenagers runnin around wit guns tryna prove themselves that gets ppl hurt or killed
Does tucson have any "Blades" like Figueroa in LA?
@@dankspank4879 What gangs in Tuscon?
You say hoods I say holiday destination
3:53, good ol' barrio viejo (old neighborhood). I reside in the yellow aparments to the right and been doing so since 1995 (California native). Overall not a bad neighborhood but you do get the occasional lead foot once in a while. Thanks for the video!
You missed the hood again. Tucson looks good in this video.
Agree
@@eileenmccarthy8507 me too

@@muneymaker9624 yea my dad was from that neighbor hood they called it the pjs
@@estevanalcaraz2913 yup 10th Ave PJS
Try the neighborhoods around 12th and ajo! A lot of these houses in the video are historical homes that are being or been renovated.
There Are Really No Bad Neighborhoods In Tucson, You're Driving Around Some Expensive Downtown Real Estate Dude😂
IKR!
@@maryewillburn158 come check us out ua-cam.com/video/XKNyIInlFQE/v-deo.html
Lol 🤣yup
? South tucson? Western hills? Vista?South Park?
@@joeromero1981 Maybe in the 90s those neighborhoods are safer then the foothills nowadays
So much history and generations in these neighborhoods. Not to mention some of the best Mexican food. So I disagree with this video.
How was Mexico 🇲🇽
Mexico Living right here 🇲🇽
Thats right!!💪🏽🇲🇽🇺🇸🌵
It looks very similar to many cities in northern Mexico, in the desert regions. 🌵🌵

THE BUILDING IS ON MEYER AVE AND SIMPSON. THE BUILDING ON LEFT WITH A DOOR USED TO BE A POOL HALL. THIS IS NEAR DOWNTOWN . A POOR AREA BUT NOT GHETTO. BY BEST CHILDHOOD MEMORIES R HERE. WENT TO DRACHMAN ELEMENTARY WHICH IS CLOSE BY. THIS IS NOT THE HOOD. SORRY. AS A MATTER OF FACT ALL OLD BUILDING S IN THIS AREA HAVE BEEN RESTORED AND R VERY EXPENSIVE. MY FAMILY HOME WHICH MY PARENTS BOUGHT FOR 5000 IN 1968 IS SELLING FOR 450,OOO NOW. WE CALL IT THE BARRIO BUT GHETTO ITS NOT.....
Six minutes in I think I saw a human.
Cool to see it compared with Juarez. Despite the poverty and barbed wire in Juarez, it was more colourful and seemed more cared for than these areas of Tucson.
So many neighborhoods in America have no people about, which is sketchy.
Not sketchy 110 degrees Fahrenheit we are inside with air on high! 🔥🥵🏜️
Can you go to Blythe , California
Can you do Utah next?
Those Mormon hoods are the real deal. If you don't watch your back four of them will sneak up on your on their bikes and talk to you about the lord for 4 hours. Time you'll never get back.
Keep up the goodwork Charlie and stay safe!
Just 2 questions: Any plans to go back to film NYC ? / Why don't you make an instagram page to promote your videos ? i think it will be nice and also interesting/attractive for the social media people to see where you go and interview the hoods
Greetings from The Netherlands
I grew up on Castro street in Tucson. It's pretty bad now I believe
There was just a murder by Castro st the other day the 81st homicide of the year to be exact.
All of Tucson is adjacent to one neighborhood that is unkept and two blocks away is a historical section of fine well kept manicured yards and structures.
You passed by my house lol i finally got to be in one of these vids
charlie bo "oh ok"
How do we compare? Tucson's rate of homicide per 100,000 residents of 6.1 was the fourth-highest among peer western MSAs in 2020.
And it's has gone up .
Great Tucson Arizona worst hoods video
Do an Indian Reservation.
Gila river rez is not safe for whites
But funny how quick you put on that smile and behave when we are in your casino. Lmao.
@Taylor Birkey clap
Tohono O’odham Reservation has some of the worst roads I have ever driven on… the amount of potholes nearly made me crash multiple times.
plz go to Detroit my hometown, or come to Dallas where I currently am. love your channel ,...... im new here ,.... keep upyour great work Charlie ❤️
Hr has over 50 videos of Detroit and a lot of Dallas videos too
Lol he is from detroit, he has more detroit than any other city
@@showmestatefinest5412 okay thank
now i saw 😂
@@jimmythegentconway8690 ❤️🙃
Can you go to Yuma , Arizona
No one in their right mind goes to Yuma
If you want to see the "crazy people" start at Laos center on the Southside hop a bus to rondstat then take a bus to tohono center there's some real characters that hop on and off those busses especially because they're doing free rides until 2022
2 years later, and Tucson's streets have not improved. The government has been highly deficient in keeping up with them. The roads on the south side are starting to turn into gravel...
Other than moving vehicles I think I saw maybe only thirteen people.
Cause it's too hot out lol. Everyone is inside enjoying the AC
And swimming in their pools lol
It's 100°-120° in the summer really?! Would you want be out in that temp lol just saying, not judging.
@@maryewillburn158 it's arid air there I heard. I could sweat it. Not 120 degrees though.
@@Mardasee 120° is the highest it gets and when it does get that hot we are asked to stay home or go to cooling centers, if we do not have air conditioners most here have swamp coolers they have water pumped to hay filter pads and air blown over them to cool the room or house, so they are only good till the 90° then you suffer why we have cooling centers. I love the winters and fall here, but sometimes it gets really cold still love it, you can always put on more warm clothing, in summer you can only take off what you have on for decency lol. So if you like warm weather it a nice place to be.
I’m confused. What is your point with this video just to drive through working class neighborhoods to show what? What poverty looks like; what disinvestment looks like? Doesn’t make sense to me.
Gee, I'm sorry, I won't ever do it again. I promise.
@@CharlieBo313 no come but go to the place mentioned in the comments and you will have very little complaints, really!
These videos help expose what politicians and the media don’t want you to see. These videos are also a lesson in sociology, class, culture and more.
U should check out the trailer park's in Tucson
They under value our homes and expect the community to support itself.. Sad what politicians did to areas like this
At night Tucson as a whole is sketchy asf. Lot more shootings recently, drugs, homeless, crazies, etc. Some of the neighborhoods look really bad!
bruh imagine clicking here and seeing this dude go through your house like "yep this is trash"
I went there last year after his passing. The most amazing thing that threw my off was the homeless!!!
I live in south Tucson , I've seen dudes get head get stomped , lots of fights , a shooting , multiple white cover sheet body's cover for homicide side , so yeah the Southside is pretty dangerous.
At least the brothers are not hanging on corners slinging rocks.
Bro what..
None of the places you drove around were ghetto. In fact, some celebrities have homes in some of the “hoods” you drove around in like Barrio Viejo
John 14:6 Muay Thai opens in Tucson Arizona 2022 Lord willing. We are bringing traditional Muay Thai to the city!
Where at?
Looks beautiful compared to the crowded, destroyed Northeast hoods. Grass lawns, individual houses, everyone owns a car (and off-street parking!), construction that wasn't already falling apart 100 years ago. Not bad.
It’s really not that bad. I love Arizona. It’s not for everyone tho. Very lonely vibes, everything is trying to kill you, the plants, bugs, animals, the heat, drugs. But, if you’re an independent, outdoorsy type, you might love it. Desert, mountains, forest, skiing, You can go off-road or desert exploring just about wherever you want and discover old Indian ruins, petroglyphs, old abandoned mining equipment, random graves out in the desert. Love Arizona but it’s not for city/tribal type folks.
Lol worst hoods and they live in those huge houses, in other countries those houses would be upper middle class houses
Always been curious what kind of vehicle you drive.
Thanks
You ever noticed that the worst part of town always have the train tracks running threw it
And where are the people?
That’s what I’m thinking too
Indoors i mean its over 100 degrees here rn
I can't even begin to comprehend how warm that is. Top temperature of 63F where I am today.
@@LeoTheLion17 😮 no wonder then thanks for info
In the AC.
Would like to see Las Vegas
YOU DIDNT EVEN GO THROUGH ANY HOODS U ROAD AROUND 22ND AREA LOL
Hello 👋 everyone if you all want to see some humans and help us me and my wife seek out our drug and homeless problems here in Tucson az we will be doing interviews and trynna reach out to our community so please any support all support is welcome ua-cam.com/video/XKNyIInlFQE/v-deo.html
That's the new pjs you should've seen them before. Back in the eighties
Accurate places but u missed a few
I took trains from Amarillo to Belen. It looked like everyone’s house was made by whatever blew but that day…. Kinda like this.
Should have renamed the video title: A ride through Tucson roads.
Am from Chicago,IL and Tucson,AZ is going down the crapper fast now. Just go down Sparkman and Flower at night time you will see some mess up stuff. Tucson will be the next Chicago, IL in 8 years from now.
The way who knows who is moving in from the open border less than a hundred miles away, I doubt it's gonna take that long. I saw so many changes this past year I left Tucson after 20 years and moved to Florida.
I get crazy out in 520
Yup that little bigg city tucson az aka la tusa born and raised down here. the city is nice overall it can get pretty wild in certain areas tho tucson gots it's hoods/Barrios and area's hints West tucson. Some parts of East and most of South tucson midtown and North also has its areas. Gracias for the video tho homie 👍🔥
Come on through south Phoenix on your way up. 24th st and Broadway is a good starting point.
Go to phoenix and north Las Vegas next. I live in Phoenix. 27th Ave and 24th van Buren always busy.
If I don’t see 24th street and the quick mart near downtown in this video than you’re completely wrong about where the worst hoods are.
lived in Tucson 12 years of my life damn near every side. Can’t tell me different lmao
Looks like Mexico
man you are running stop signs =( !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😐
What I learned about the roads from this video is the difference between Midwest and northeast and Tucson AZ is that the roads are both ****ked but for very different reasons
U in the nice area come over here lol
Lmao these ain’t shit head into the south south or south Tucson and anything near grant and oracle or grant and Alvernon, also can’t forget 29th st
What area is this video, I haven't seen it before
