This is me breaking the cycle with my daughter. I don’t want my daughter to go through nothing I went through.
"I’m gonna be real with my daughter. Being as though my daughter lives in the hood, I’m gonna be straightforward to her. When she gets old enough to understand what’s going on around her, I want her to understand where mommy coming from. I’m gonna tell her about everything. I’m gonna tell her about the drug gang. I’m gonna tell her about everything, because if you don’t teach your child then the streets will, and if you let the streets teach them then they’re gonna turn them out, they’re gonna destroy them."
A kid got shot here right around the corner from a gun control billboard. They’re trying to send a message. Nobody’s getting it. You see? I’m scared to take my kids out and be in the wrong place at the wrong time. I stay in the house.
