Tyrone Tackett:
And then they killed Rochelle. Shot her in the fuckin' head. But chicks like your bullshit, bourgeois daughter can do anything they want to do. Because you got the bread to make it cool. Ain't that right, Oliver? But the Rochelle's of the world coming from the streets, man, end up dead, or hustlin' or hookin'. Let me tell you one thing, man. That shit has got to stop. See more » |
