Episode description

yes, i called it Meanstreets (and if you from the town, you know I was on the other side of linden)... remember that.  Anyways...  here's a snippet of conversation between my neighborhood friends and I, on the unspoken topic of hood linguistics. There are tones and signals that are learned in different neighborhoods to show a level of respect among men; including but not limited to, the appropriate head nod. Some would even call it a survival tactic. Hope you can enjoy the semantics as much as I did. you might recognize a couple voices.
