No such thing as a Chav in America. Low class, yeah, probably. Although, low class with money. :spin:

You know nothing about Compton. Coolio's already talked about his past with the Crips.

She is right though, not everyone in Compton is in a gang. Unless you want to disagree with that, G? :rolleyes:

You're right, not everyone from Compton is in a gang (I think I've already pointed out that my statement was a generalisation in order to make a point) but for a young man growing up in Compton - as Coolio did - it very likely that he'd been involved in gangs.

I agree completely. It was Letmein's rather absymal 'you dont know anything about Compton' comment towards Linda that I felt I had to reply to. Such a fun guy, that Letmein :wink:.

No problem mate. I just wanted to explain myself.:thumbs:

'Fun Guy' or 'Funghi'?



Apparently a lot of us "know nothing".

I know quite a lot actually. I know a lot about Compton, and I know a lot about statistics.

:D

Linda the O.G :dance:

Your missing the point here, Linda. Coolio IS a gangster. Just like the thread title says.

Dont you know Caps Lock = Truth? :wink:

Damn Stu, I'm not down with the kids you know... In my day we just used "Fact." in the next sentence to create a truth. Fact.

Coolio 2009

Is a Dad with a Show on US Networks with his Kids.


He was once a Rapper/Gangster

But 2009
he is a Dad
With Kids that wind him up.
Fact.

I applaud your use of the 'Fact.'

And, kudos for remembering the full stop. :wink:

If it looks like a chav, acts like a chav and talks like a chav...IT'S A CHAV!

:joker:

Just because the social type doesn't exist in America doesn't mean he can't be labled with it from a Brittish point of view.

Coolios not a chav

Chav, Chava or Charva is a slang derogatory term applied to certain young people in the United Kingdom. The stereotypical image of a chav is a white aggressive teen or young adult, of working class background, who wears branded sports and casual clothing (baseball caps are also common) who often fights and engages in petty criminality and are often assumed to be unemployed or in a low paid job

1. Coolio isn't a young person.
2. He is not an aggressive teen or young adult.
3. He doesn't wear branded sports clothes or casual clothing.
4. He doesn't commit petty crimes.
5. He doesn't have a low paid job.

Coolio is no chav.

Exactly see your not happy being branded something your not so why should you do it to Coolio. Hmmm?

Haha he aint no gangster either

I mean what gangsters are z listers that go on uk gameshows? LOL wearing glitter on his face and a toy car LOL
