These are the streets that produced the Infamous Supreme Team( Supreme and his murderous Nephew Prince...Bimmy, Black Just, Green Eyed Born) the Corley Brothers, Ronnie Bumps, the Nichols Organization( Fat Cat... Glaze Gibbs...Pappy Mason and the Bebos Posse), 50 Cent and G-Unit, Onyx, Ali Vegas, Nicki Minaj, The Lost Boyz, Pharoah Monche, Skip To My Lou, Lamar Odom and Wacka Flocka. These streets were so vicious that on February 26, 1988, rookie police officer Edward Byrne was killed while guarding the house of a witness in a drug-related trial. Byrne's murder and other violent crime in the neighborhood led South Jamaica to become a symbol for the national drug epidemic, and the city's war on drugs instigated by Mayor Ed Koch. Following the killing, Koch created the Tactical Narcotics Team (TNT) program, with the first team dispatched to South Jamaica on March 14, 1988.
Everything except Waka Flaka he claim Riverdale lol. They ain't no play either. Left southside too early to say it made him. But you ain't add Run DMC, LL, Salt N Pepa, Ja Rule, Irv, Caddy Tah, Murda Inc. Mic Geronimo, Chinx, E Money Bags, Lloyd Daniels, Khalid Reeves.. too many legends to name.
Around a month or so ago raw sewage flooded the basements of hundreds of houses in that area. In some cases it was over six inches deep. The city said, "Not our fault, it's because people keep pouring cooking oil down their drains." People got outraged, and then the city did a 180 and said, "Okay, it was because an old sewer pipe collapsed, which we knew all along, we just made up that cooking oil story."
Tom D the smells going away now but when it first happened it was horrible, they’re still working on it to this day, I don’t live in that area but I pass by every morning omw to work
Thank you really enjoyed watching the video. We shopped in Jamaica Queens, while visiting New York. I bought some unique things there for a low price!! Have a blessed day everyone 😇🙏
@@Shodawg0225 Cost of living..More bang for your buck & that's where most of my family relocated to. And ATL offers a metropolitan vibe somewhat similar to NYC. I contemplated Charleston, SC where my sister moved though i like it i feel as if it would be heavy culture shock. But it ain't just NY. Lots of people from Boston, Connecticut & Philly moved down here as well.
When I moved to NY I chose Southside Jamaica Queens. I'm a country boy but we have suburbs outside of the country in my county. I felt comfortable in Queens. There homes have grass fences driveways and yard. The things I'm use to the only difference is it's in a city. I also could live in Long Islands as well
you are mistaken..thats about 15 minuites away from 50's block where he got shot..50 lived near JFK airport on 161 and 134th st a block away from guy r brewer blvd this video didn't even go near there
missed a lot of blocks like rockaway blvd, sutphin blvd, 116 ave, foch blvd, lincoln ave, rochdale projects, baisley park. you gonna have to do a part two.
I grew up in the 40 Projects. Then, my parents purchased a house and we moved to the Baisley Park area on Long St., between Foch Blvd., and 118th Ave. I moved to NJ in 1988 and have been in Southeastern PA since 2001. I went to Queens when my mother died in 2008, and this past February, for the funeral of a cousin. Only God knows when or if I will ever go that way again. Basically, all of my family has moved out of the area. Or, they have died... there is no real reason for me to go there anymore. I have pleasant memories from my youth.
@@dolmapradhan9008 In the NYC, Golden Krust is ok., but it isn't considered authenic Caribbean Food. LOL.. There's surely plenty of other good Caribbean restaurants there!
Taco No Spaghetti Plz yeah but you should know where you are, and what time of day. Trust me you could get killed or mugged there. In general NY is way better then it was in the 80s and 90s. I’m from Brooklyn right outside of Brownsville and it was a war zone back then lol
Lived in Jamaica for 14 days, and even though i heard that it was dangerous for a white person like me i still stayed. Nothing happened except people saying hi, goodmorning and being nice. Felt safer in Jamaica than in some hood’s over in Sweden where i’m from.

R.I.P to my man Kev who passed away today. From Georgia to the neighborhood he grew up in Jamaica Queens. I'll neva forget you kid. Peace to all my fam all ova New York and up top
Crazy story my only trip to NY and I chose to stay at the Howard Johnson in Jamaica queens. I got lost and ended up at the wrong HJ on archer ave. Airtrain station look like something out of a Hollywood movie. Now dude at the reception was like No your reservation is way over in the hood on Rockaway blvd. 😮 this was 2015 so I catch a cab their and hit up this place called Chicken Shack and settled in. Wake up get some coffee watch some tv news and I’m like damn it s just like Compton out here. Lol So I’m tryna catch the bus to the train so I can see NYC and the lady and man on the bustop were very helpful made me feel good about this place called Queens
So you were by the conduit( highway) where all the Hotels /Motels are. The receptionist couldn't have said the hood" .Lol that's a residential area that is very settled. The most commotion might take place in the Burger King parking lot when all the bike riders decide to meet up at times ,that's about it. Very nice part of Queens ,I love it there.
South Queens in general has improved a lot in the past few decades. Sidewalks and roads were rebuilt and are well maintained. Gangs that were roaming the streets in the 90s and early 2000s aren't there anymore. There's increased NYPD presence at night (although, this has been happening since Bill di Blasio was in office). Most of the houses and buildings are over 100 years old and the public schools aren't that great, but those are some of the only downsides. It's also a great location for short commutes to Manhattan and Long Island. Overall, a good place to be, with fantastic access to amenities if you can find housing there.
Bloomberg increased NYPD in high crime areas, stop and frisk, and it worked. Diblasio deserves no credit at all, he left the whole city in worse shape than when he took it. With all the people and tax revenue leaving NY, crime rising again, and the illegal migrant crisis depleting resources in the city, it's areas like this that get effected the worse.
@@Qrec12 Well, I lived in this neighborhood, I can tell you there's almost zero housing for anyone - let alone an influx or recent migrants. And despite the neighborhood's old, ghetto appearance, it's more middle-class and white collar. This isn't a low-income community. I think the surrounding regions like Orange and Dutchess will have to take in some of the migrants in eventually.
@@SnakePlissken001I’m from this area, and now live in Flushing. South Jamaica is pretty much one of the last choices for people when looking for housing, since most of NYC got gentrified and the cost of living skyrocketed. South Jamaica is affordable compared to the rest of Queens and BK. Jamaica in general has always been considered middle class, doesn’t mean it’s not a high crime area and it has a reputation for that even if it has gotten better throughout the years. Everything that is happening now in nyc and in the country has consequences, areas like this are more vulnerable when times get rough, time will tell.
@@Qrec12 I think South Bronx has Jamaica beat when it comes to lower rent and housing, but no one in their right mind should ever move there if they can help it. I've also heard that most of the ghetto people from these parts have been moving into Newburgh and other places along the Hudson Valley once they got pushed out of affordable housing in NYC. As for the migrants, the City's definitely got a problem, but most of NYC is already out of affordable rental options. So, I just can't see them flooding Jamaica and other areas - unless there's some new buildings somewhere being built for them. There's just no room to house them.
I am just a young white man visiting from Europe and I booked my airbnb in this neighbourhood by accident. Was a bit of a shock to see everything looking pretty trashed. Also I was the only white man in the area which felt strange and made me realize how some black men can feel in my country. Anyhow I had no problems and the stay was fine.
lol. i'm born raised in Queens, north part. you a fool. lol. i'm 50 years old and have never stepped foot in that hood. hope ya learned from ya mistake.
Happy new year solo che non riesco mai a capacitarmi nel vedere tutti quei fili elettrici messi così a penzoloni una cosa veramente inaudita per un paese come l'America! Basta che uno di quei pali di legno venga giù per isolare un quartiere intero dall'elettricità
ive lived in jamaica and the ave looks worse than it actually is, no-one bothers you fr unless you start. even in the summer on that main side street where the beef patty place is.
lyfe 1zruff you would never know with the amount of trash that was in there.. also the big ass swan that patrols the water😂 my GF said it attacked her way back.
Never been to nyc but my girlfriend did... probably we gonna make a trip together in the near future... I was a bit jealous due to all things to she told me about nyc! beautiful!
I grew up in Queens during a time when young children could walk from block to block and eat grilled hotdogs & burgers from total strangers and not worry about getting kidnapped. I grew up in Queens during a time when we created fashion from head to toe, the Pirate hats, Lee Jeans, Suade Pumas, and gold name belts. My generation helped create an entire culture that created hip hop, roller skating, Graffiti, and partied with 2 turntables, a Gemini mixer, and a mic. We created the breakdance Cypher when people use to gather in a circle rooting for their rock steady Crews. My generation is special, 70s babies I salute each and every one of you. Southside!

Happy New Year CharlieBo 🎉
Crazy story my only trip to NY and I chose to stay at the Howard Johnson in Jamaica queens. I got lost and ended up at the wrong HJ on archer ave. Airtrain station look like something out of a Hollywood movie. Now dude at the reception was like No your reservation is way over in the hood on Rockaway blvd. 😮 this was 2015 so I catch a cab their and hit up this place called Chicken Shack and settled in. Wake up get some coffee watch some tv news and I’m like damn it s just like Compton out here. Lol So I’m tryna catch the bus to the train so I can see NYC and the lady and man on the bustop were very helpful made me feel good about this place called Queens
Great story I hope you enjoyed yourself.
So you were by the conduit( highway) where all the Hotels /Motels are. The receptionist couldn't have said the hood" .Lol that's a residential area that is very settled. The most commotion might take place in the Burger King parking lot when all the bike riders decide to meet up at times ,that's about it. Very nice part of Queens ,I love it there.
I live in Queens my entire life since the 70s and still ain't step foot in dat hood.
Peace. This was great.
Born and raised
It’s Christmas time in Hollis Queens.
Moms cooking chicken & collard greens.
What kind of camera set up do u use if you don’t mind me asking
South Queens in general has improved a lot in the past few decades. Sidewalks and roads were rebuilt and are well maintained. Gangs that were roaming the streets in the 90s and early 2000s aren't there anymore. There's increased NYPD presence at night (although, this has been happening since Bill di Blasio was in office). Most of the houses and buildings are over 100 years old and the public schools aren't that great, but those are some of the only downsides. It's also a great location for short commutes to Manhattan and Long Island. Overall, a good place to be, with fantastic access to amenities if you can find housing there.
Bloomberg increased NYPD in high crime areas, stop and frisk, and it worked. Diblasio deserves no credit at all, he left the whole city in worse shape than when he took it. With all the people and tax revenue leaving NY, crime rising again, and the illegal migrant crisis depleting resources in the city, it's areas like this that get effected the worse.
@@Qrec12 Well, I lived in this neighborhood, I can tell you there's almost zero housing for anyone - let alone an influx or recent migrants. And despite the neighborhood's old, ghetto appearance, it's more middle-class and white collar. This isn't a low-income community. I think the surrounding regions like Orange and Dutchess will have to take in some of the migrants in eventually.
@@SnakePlissken001I’m from this area, and now live in Flushing. South Jamaica is pretty much one of the last choices for people when looking for housing, since most of NYC got gentrified and the cost of living skyrocketed. South Jamaica is affordable compared to the rest of Queens and BK. Jamaica in general has always been considered middle class, doesn’t mean it’s not a high crime area and it has a reputation for that even if it has gotten better throughout the years. Everything that is happening now in nyc and in the country has consequences, areas like this are more vulnerable when times get rough, time will tell.
@@Qrec12 I think South Bronx has Jamaica beat when it comes to lower rent and housing, but no one in their right mind should ever move there if they can help it. I've also heard that most of the ghetto people from these parts have been moving into Newburgh and other places along the Hudson Valley once they got pushed out of affordable housing in NYC.
As for the migrants, the City's definitely got a problem, but most of NYC is already out of affordable rental options. So, I just can't see them flooding Jamaica and other areas - unless there's some new buildings somewhere being built for them. There's just no room to house them.
What a this street looks like LA! Thanks for your work. I enjoyed.
i visited there years ago and it was lovely. the houses are honestly beautiful to me
When the were on Jamaica ave that really hit hard
I am just a young white man visiting from Europe and I booked my airbnb in this neighbourhood by accident. Was a bit of a shock to see everything looking pretty trashed. Also I was the only white man in the area which felt strange and made me realize how some black men can feel in my country. Anyhow I had no problems and the stay was fine.
lol. i'm born raised in Queens, north part. you a fool. lol. i'm 50 years old and have never stepped foot in that hood. hope ya learned from ya mistake.

Crazy to think I be living around here now. It’s also where 50 grew up
There's like a million deli's and convenience stores. I live on the other side of Queens and we don't have anywhere near as much.
Prolly cause u live on the nicer side of queens
Lol wow you drove by my house in this video 😂
Aww can I get your ig
@@officialmemestv7515 he shoots and he misses
There used to be an elevated A train over Jamaica Ave. It was like walking at night in broad daylight. Aging myself here. 😁
That ain’t even a bitch that’s a nigga with a bitch profile pic 😂
kangaro jack You’re right I’m not a bitch. I’m a beautiful melanated Queen 👑
the footages are great. what dash cam are you using? the quality is amazing
Happy new year solo che non riesco mai a capacitarmi nel vedere tutti quei fili elettrici messi così a penzoloni una cosa veramente inaudita per un paese come l'America! Basta che uno di quei pali di legno venga giù per isolare un quartiere intero dall'elettricità
My town 😁 Nice to see some familiarity
I work for amazon and i hate delivering here 🤦🏽♂️
@ what do you mean why? Look at this shit hole 🤣
@ I lived in the BRonx and Queens. I feek like Bx looks works but you can't trust a nice block in Queens. Perfect place for the set up
This is where my mom is from. It was way worse in the 1970s and 80s
@@cfnretro6448 Haha I’d imagine
This more so Jamaica not the south side. Need to go south of 107th Ave to catch the real south side vibes
It's actually improving Farmers Blvd my home
Yes I am moving near Farmers Blvd soon right off to Belt Pkwy
I love Jamaica Queens ❤
From D.C living out Queens now I fuck with the town 💯
Eso parece un barrio de millonarios en Colombia y pensar q son de los más pobres en Nueva York
Charlie do you only visit hoods or do u take the time to visit and record nice places too
ive lived in jamaica and the ave looks worse than it actually is, no-one bothers you fr unless you start. even in the summer on that main side street where the beef patty place is.
Seen 40s. No baisley ?
Ignored the entire Sutphin strip smh
No guy brewer neither.
Was just there for new years ! Smoked a fat blunt in baisley pond park. First time there
@@Carrborokidd legend has it there are bodies at the bottom of that pond
lyfe 1zruff you would never know with the amount of trash that was in there.. also the big ass swan that patrols the water😂 my GF said it attacked her way back.
At 3:52 if you made a right walking that's the Studio on the left after rainbow that Jam Master J got shot in. 😔
Looks hell of alot better than Hartford ct I live in
ireland66613 lmao is this a competition?
Never been to nyc but my girlfriend did... probably we gonna make a trip together in the near future...
I was a bit jealous due to all things to she told me about nyc! beautiful!
This isn't the beautiful part. You don't want to be on Southside as an out of towner.
RSD I know. I was talking in general.... times squares.... Manhattan etc
Bless up, Bo finally hit Queens
I have old Queens videos.
I always wanted to know what car you drive! What is it?)
I grew up in Queens during a time when young children could walk from block to block and eat grilled hotdogs & burgers from total strangers and not worry about getting kidnapped. I grew up in Queens during a time when we created fashion from head to toe, the Pirate hats, Lee Jeans, Suade Pumas, and gold name belts. My generation helped create an entire culture that created hip hop, roller skating, Graffiti, and partied with 2 turntables, a Gemini mixer, and a mic. We created the breakdance Cypher when people use to gather in a circle rooting for their rock steady Crews. My generation is special, 70s babies I salute each and every one of you. Southside!
I walked through jamaica in the evening. I liked it✌🏼
👀 😂
I didn’t do that and I grew up there! 😂
What camera are you using?
This not even south jamaica, surprisingly much safer on this part of the ave near 170th compared to actual parts of south jamaica and liberty
Road trip NYC 😊?? Nice man i like that city its so clean very peace full for driving.
