Des, I can’t front ya’ll was fly. F-L-Y!!! All color-coordinated with the leather jackets & matching leather hats. I know ya’ll was killin ‘em at the RKO on Fordham. Who remembers that one?
... wait a minute... I just noticed something... hold up... let me make sure... YUP!!! Ya’ll wasn’t at the RKO, the Capri, or the Paradise because they all closed in the 80’s - and the corner of your picture says Apr 01.
WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU & THE OTHER 2 ROXANNES GOING IN THEM GET-UPS IN APRIL 2001?!?!?
(just joking, you know ya’ll was the sh#t, and still are in my book)
Sorry to correct you my brother, but the pic says April 85! So this goes back even further...this goes back to before Kim had goggles, I mean glasses, and before Des had hair, I mean before Des had blonde hair. This was before Michelle started messing with Herb. Before Kindel was able to hangout, before Melinda got the Jeep. Before LaQuana was being called Quana. This right here is a piece of HISTORY my brother! Shoot, this pic was taken before....
Correction my brother - in order for that pic to go back before kim had goggles, I mean glasses, it would have to say April '75. just playing Kim. But it does go back... back before Kim & Larry combined b-ball genes to make lil' Larry. Before Des had hair, I mean before Des had a curl. Before Susan was old enough to mess with ANYBODY. Before Kindell started saying, "Anthony, I got another friend for you. Don't dog this one!" Before Melinda got the MPV. And Quana was probably still wearing that damn 'mita mita' dress! Damn, it was probably taken before...
Back before Freddy left the basement. before Herb had the gold cherokee, before School Daze. Before i knew that Susan and Claude were brother and sister. before Larry was called Rico Suave. Before Frankie & Jermaine could go outside alone. I actually can't remember Des not having that curl....ummm, Before Gary started working at Sergio's. Before Cu-ca went Cu-ca! Before Lyin' Willie. Before Big Troy became FACE. Before we called Duane Diamond D - he was still The Steak! Back before.......
Damn, that pic was taken way before Nikki said, "Giiirl, look at Takim all sexy in that Osh Kosh jumper, with his good hair. I want to have his babies!" Before the basement became legendary and before there was a Frankie & Jermaine. I actually think Des STILL has a curl...ummm, before Gary got turned out by Cynthia, before you started fantasizing about Cu-ca's daughter Diana, before Disco Dave said,"Get the f#ck outtta, go!". Before Big Troy became scar-face, and before Diamond D aka The Steak became The Legend.
Yo, this was even before the chinese take-out around the corner from Belmont, that had the chubby chick with the BIG birthmark under her left eye (that House used to mack for free chicken fried rice), burned down.
P.S.- House would NEVER share his chicken fried rice. I don't care who you were, "HELL NO" is all he had for you. And he would eat it in your face on the stoop, smiling. House - where's my damn Malcolm X glasses you borrowed "for a minute" - 20 years ago!?!
Correction again my brother. It was hughes Boy Tom that created,
" Why don't you get the F*&% Outta Here - GO! " And you know that picture was taken before Rashea, Cadillac Craig, House, and myself worked for Duane at The Love Store. Before Troy Boogie left the basement too. Before Baby-George begged us to let him start the Junior Gator's. Before they took the Green Dumpster from the side of Sergio's. Before Darryl
(across the street for Sergio's) and Spud(from Hughes ave.) started that rap group! Before Kermit gota new- smaller pairof glasses. Before Kelvin became Whitebread....Way before Kelvin started messing with Monique, and Monique's moms threatened Kelvin's life, and he wouldn't walk near hughes avenue. Before Michi had the Puerto Rican haircut with the shag in the back. Way back to when Rusty had a neck. Back to before Duane from Dennis Lane, dropped Donalds radio he just got on Christmas night. Waaaaaaay back....
I dont always leave a comment but I visit everyday and ya'll crack me up.
Grand Poo Poo out
YOU GUYS ARE GRAZY!
I REMEMBER THOSE EASTER OUTFITS. THATS WHEN DES USE TO ALWAYS TELL ME TO RESPECT MY ELDERS, KIM WOULD LET ME IN HER ROOM, ANTHONY YOU WASN'T ABLE TO HANG OUT EITHER, CUZ I USE TO BE A RASHAE'S HOUSE PLAYING HIS PINBALL MACHINE WITH YOU.
I WISH YOU COULD SEE THEIR WHOLE BODY CUZ I THINK THEY HAD THE PANTS OR SKIRT TO MATCH THE JACKET
Damn Kindell, you right about that. Pinball it was. Rashae only got to hang out because he started shaving while he was still in 57.
WOW....THAT IS NOT NICE. WHATS UP WITH THE GOGGLES COMMENT. NOW I DON'T WANT TO CONSULT WITH MY GIRL DES FOR SOME SNAPS BECAUSE I WILL. I CAN'T COME OFF LIKE SHE CAN OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD BUT I WILL HOLLA AT HER SO I CAN COME AT U AND ANTHONY LOL. WOOOOOOOOOW I THOUGHT WE WERE COOL. COREY AND ANTHONY NEED TO LEARN HOW TO RESPECT THEIR ELDERS. THEY KNOW THEY WOULDN'T HAVE SAID THAT BACK IN 85 WHEN I USE TO BUST HEADS WIDE OPEN MALE OR FEMALE. U ALL BETTER BE GLAD I RETIRED MY BOXING GLOVES OR IT WOULD BE ON...LOL
This picture reminds me of when me and Des was inseperable when u saw one u saw the other...kind of like salt and pepper, sugar and spice, bread and butter, well u get the picture...Des this makes me think back to when we ditched Donald and Lamont to go to queens bridge or When Marcus was ready to bust Donald teeth out at your house with your grandmother there. Thanks corey for taking me back to some really good times. Memories are a beautiful thing. That picture was actually taken on Easter of 85 and Des grandmother took us to Sylvias to eat
Kim, you know I got mega-love for you, Des, the rest of 21 & original gatorettes. We're just having a little fun going down memory lane. And you're right about that, I wouldn't have said or thought any of that back then for 2 reasons-
1. You, Des, Connie, Michelle, & Stacy were trendsetters. Ya'll was rockin' what the younger chicks wished they could get.
And 2. I had front row seats to MANY of your fights. One summer I had a 'season pass', because it was like everyday during that summer you was thumpin'. If it wasn't you thumpin' Tonya across the street, it was Ms. Bessie thumpin' you up the stairs, LOL. I got nuttin' but love for you, big sis. But before the mid-80's them glasses WERE a little big, Kimberly.
IT WAS BACK WHEN OMI(MS.BESSIE) WAS OUT WALKING AMAR(THE DOG)AND EVERYONE WOULD RUN OFF THE STOOP. I COULDN'T WAIT TO GET OLDER CUZ I COULD ONLY GO AS FAR AS THE SCHOOL YARD. I WOULD BEG KIM TO TAKE ME WITH HER BUT SHE NEVER LET ME GO, CUZ SHE NEW I WOULD COME BACK AND TELL OMI WHAT SHE WAS DOING. I THINK I GOT MY FIRST LEATHER OUTFIT THAT YEAR. I WAS A JACKET AND A SKIRT, CUZ YOU KNOW BESSIE DON'T BUY ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER. BUT THE ONLY PLACE I WENT FOR EASTER WAS CHURCH AND THE BRONX ZOO THE THE EASTER EGG HUNT
by the way anthony... I definitly remember the RKO, the Valentine, and the Loews Paradise but that was when you and Rashea had to have a parent with you to get in. Wow, I feel old, that was ages ago. Shout out to all my 21 jump street squad and to all the original Gators it was a pleasure growing up with you all and watching some of you grow up. Everytime I think about when the Gators was initiating on the corner of Belmont all I can do is laugh. The things you had each other doing lol...much luv is all I can say.
WOW this flick was taking at skate key on Easter. Back b4 Corey was able to cross the street to sit on 2121 stoop, and back b4 Ant's pink ase lips match the color of you face. Corey as long as I can remember you were ashy and Ant was always greasy. BUT THANKS 4 defiantly taken me back 2 a happy place.
ONLY MY BOTTOM LIP WAS PINK, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! Now it's just a shade of 'cigar brown'. I lost my mojo.
One question: Des, why the GREY leather hat??????
Thats what i was thinking, but after stepping up my screen resolution i realized it was grey & white to match the grey purse. They was doin' it. But if they would've consulted with the kid on their easter outfits, I would've had them troop to dapper dan to put "Belmont" in leather puffy letters on the backs. Maybe then they would've came home from the Key with some numbers.
Alright, the gray leather hat matched my outfit but Corey you would no nothing about that because your Underroos and Oshkosh outfits always came pre-match in its packaging. Ant, to bad you was only a part-time Belmont resident or else I would have taken you up on your idea, and how do you know I did not get any number?
You know what....after further review of this picture, it seems that Des DID have THE CURL! It appears to me that the little grey leather hat, that was supposed to on or near her forehead, is slooooowly sliding backwards....must have been too much activaor! But she was doin it though....what IT exactly is, I have no idea! LOL
And I still rock matching underoos, WHAT!
WHAT?!?! PART-TIME?!?!?!
First of all, I've lived & breathed Belmont from 3 yrs old to the grave, baby. I don't care what addr was on my ID, I was on Belmont EVERYDAY! Whether by bike, bus, or troopin', Belmont was always the destination. It's not where you lay your head, it's where your heart is. 95% of the Gators didn't actually live on Belmont, but we all claim Belmont because 2121 stoop was our office & in front of Sergio's was our lounge. That's your lesson for the day.
You just didn't notice me out there because once you hit puberty & started fillin' out in a few areas you didn't know me anymore. But before that we used to play together, remember? Tag, round-up, manhunt, ringalivio, hot peas & butter? Speaking of butter, I even gave you the grease off my lips for your nappy ase scalp! Tell me we don't go back. Now that you're all Luster-silked out, you forget about the ones that held you down when your sh#t looked like the color purple. I still love you though.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Corey, I did not have the curls in this flick take out ur contact lens and put those ur goggles u know u need to ware but it will mess ur Image. And 4 u Ant calm down we know ur little black ase breath Belmont the because u wanted to be down young-in. The Gators that did not live on Belmont live around the corner, but any way I never for got and let me take a minute to say thanks for sharing some of ur grease for my nappy ase scalp because lord knows you had enough grease for all Belmont Ave. I luv u 2 GREASY aka pattern leather Thanks for remembering the good ole days.
No doubt, always.
