East ...

After dropping Kai off I headed to East Harlem , this was my hood , my set , my zone . I got a lot of love out here and also some hate , but the love definitely outweighed the hate .

Pulling up on the block i spotted my dog Mitch , Mitch was a solid ass nigga , one of the realist mfs I know . I met him when I was in the 5th grade and we been locked in since . I got out the car and headed over to where he was standing .

Money making Mitch , what's up with u I asked dapping him up .

What up E , out here getting to this early bird money .

Im already knowing , what it's looking like out here , it seem kind of quiet .

Yea it's slow , but slow progress better than no progress .

No doubt .

See we was still corner boys , just maintaining, getting a dollar anyway we could . But out of all my Nîggas Mitch was a pure hustler just like me , first on the block , last to leave . Every dollar counted and we was gone bleed the block dry if he had too .

Ay y'all slid through mook party last night ? I heard all the bad hos was in there .

Hell yea , and you know them hos regular as hell , all they be tryna do is fuck and beg . Ain't none of them hos got dreams for real .

They still young E , damn nigga give em a chance . And besides you still be fucking them regular ass hos .

I couldn't help but chuckle, Yea you right . All the hos love East

Man I don't know who worse , you or mook ass .

Come on now Mitch , you know damn well Mook nasty freaky ass got me beat by a long shot , he be tricking with them hos too , buying them outfits , feeding them , giving em money . I ain't doing none of that for a broad I'm just smashing .

Yea you got a point there . I heard he really got a thing for baby girl though.

Who the fuck is baby girl ?

The Carmel tall one who be with that crazy ass girl Yaya.

Who Des young ass ?

Yea that's her name Des , they say he was really feeling her until he found out her age .

I'm still tryna figure out how he ain't know her damn age like she don't hang with my lil cousin Nari , that nigga a clown .

E you know damn well Nari don't be with her and Yaya like that , one thing about Nari she focused as hell , she don't be into half of the shit I hear about them two being in , and what's the quiet cute one name with the dimples ?

Kai

Yea Kai , her and Nari the the good seeds and them other 2 some demons.

Nari ass ain't innocent, she still running around here with that lame ass little Nîgga Ju

Ju ? as in big Ju from Queens son ?

Yea , them cornballs .

I'm surprised as hell you letting that shit happen .

Me too , but she like the nigga so I'm playing it smooth, and change the subject , I'm getting mad thinking about that shit .

I feel you . I can't wait until we ain't gotta stand on these corners no more , this shit definitely a headache , gotta constantly worry about the cops , people snitching on you , niggas trying you and all that other bullshit .

Nigga who you telling , but our day coming believe that .

Without a doubt , we gotta do this shit like Meech and Tee , take all this shit over , be bigger then big , but most importantly learn from they mistakes .

This what I loved about this Nîgga Mitch , he knew what he wanted out this shit , and he had the mind frame to make it happen . We both was putting in that work but Mitch was putting it in over time . Just like last night i decided to hit up mook party meanwhile my nigga was still out here in these streets getting to the money .

Look at this ho ass nigga ,

Who that I asked not being able to see who was in the car that was riding past.

That nigga slim , we had some words last night .

About what ?

Nigga gone try and tell me i been stepping on his toes , taking his sales and shit .

Man fuck that nigga , I'll light that mf up right now .

And why the fuck would you do some dumb shit like that ?

What you mean , that nigga was talking crazy to you , and if a nigga got a problem with you he got one with me and imma handle that shit .

Handle it then what ? We blow up our sport where we making money at ? Have this mf crawling with the pigs , or better yet we start a war , which one E , you gotta use yo brain in this street shit too , not just yo gun . Slim been a bitch , he pay all them niggas to be around him , he ain't street for real and them Nîggas he be with know it , but he feeding them niggas so they go alone with it . His damn pops own a dry cleaner and his moms a veterinarian , that nigga don't know shit about the struggle , i wouldn't dare let him knock me off my square .

I hear you .

Come on nigga let's slide up the block and get something to eat with yo trigger happy ass .

Mitch was smart , he was one of the few people who talk me down off a ledge , i had much love and respect for my brother and I knew he wouldn't ever tell me shit wrong . This shit was for life with us , me and dog gone get rich together and ball forever , word to my mother .
