B****l has money..how he owe peoole?
You think he has money? Unless you actively pushing you not swimming in no excess wealth..
Btw didn't mika Barry had screenshots of him begging for money to keep flossing on his socials? Smh
With their ( that’s my dawg) however there’s no future once drugs are involved. I’m still trying to understand how that lifestyle is so welcome by soooo many people.
The BVI is a small community. Whether we realise it or not, many of us are connected by blood, family, friendships or generations of shared history. Somewhere along the way, we have to remember that we are not strangers to one another. We are a community and every life lost leaves another family grieving.
Life is simply too short for this madness. We have to stop being so quick to pull the trigger whenever anger, disagreements or pride get involved. When you're upset, take a moment to breathe. Count to 10 or even 100 if you have to. Walk away if necessary. No disagreement is worth taking someone's life and no amount of anger is worth throwing your own future away.
Once someone loses their life, there is no bringing them back and once you make a decision that puts you behind bars, you can not rewind time and undo it. Sitting in a prison cell with someone's blood on your hands or spending the rest of your life looking back at a moment you can not change, is not worth it.
Let's also be honest about this so called street credibility. Who are you really trying to impress? The same people cheering you on today will eventually move on with their lives. A few days of attention, recognition or temporary street respect can not compare to losing your freedom or losing your life. You could end up forgotten, alone behind prison walls or six feet underground. Is that really the legacy you want to leave behind?
Instead of putting more heat on yourselves and creating another cycle of violence, invest that energy into something that can actually build your future. Travel the world. Pick up a book. Take a course. Research, learn a new skill, explore opportunities and take advantage of the technology we have right at our fingertips. There is an entire world outside the streets waiting to be explored.
You are capable of becoming so much more than what your surroundings may lead you to believe. Your circumstances do not have to define your future. You can build a business, pursue an education, develop a talent, create opportunities and become whatever you set your mind to.
To our young men especially, your life has value, your future matters and you have so much more to offer than violence. Don't allow temporary emotions, peer pressure, pride or the desire to fit into a particular lifestyle to rob you of your potential.
The street life rarely ends with the glamorous picture people try to paint. Most times, it ends in prison, pain, broken families, funerals and unanswered questions. We need to do better as individuals and as a community. We need to choose peace over pride, patience over anger and growth over destruction.
Let's stop adding names to the list of lives lost. Let's start giving our young people reasons to live, dreams to pursue and a future worth looking forward to.
Life is too precious and tomorrow is never promised. Choose wisely.
