Jay-Z To Sell Stake in Brooklyn Nets
Yesterday evening Yahoo! reported that Jay-Z plans to give up his small ownership share in the Brooklyn Nets in order to avoid a conflict of interest with his new sports management firm Roc Nation Sports. An unidentified source indicated that Jay hopes to have the deal done by June, which would allow him to approach players entering this year’s NBA draft. In the following clip, Bloomberg finance reporter Dominic Chu speaks on Jay’s contributions to the team and why this move is necessary for Roc Nation Sports to move forward.
Perhaps more importantly, Jay can finally stop pretending to like the Nets and go back to rooting for the only NYC basketball team that matters.

debatable,
look at philly, you can buy a house for 16k, that’s not building up a community
a lot of people in Brooklyn that own houses black/latino are cashing out right now, i don’t wanna see niggas getting kicked outta their homes but look at our neighborhoods , they have no value whatsoever
it’s a complicated issue i know, i’m just in my hustler mode right now

Gentrification is a necessary evil in some places in order to stimulate communities and local economies to make money.
The thing is, for the right amount of money, you can declare any low-income neighborhood as blighted and basically stomp-out current residents into oblivion. Never mind that it just perpetuates the same set of circumstances and ills they experienced before, just in a new location. Brooklyn is a fucking diagram of classicism and income disparity.
NYC has a legion of yuppies that think the “culture” is having some modern Greek restaurant as opposed to a thriving Greek community/neighborhood.
April 10th, 2013 at 11:08 am

Gentrification doesnt build up a community it tears it down and replaces it. Its segregation based on socio economics. Forced poor people flight.
I respect the cold blooded capitalism of it.

Dawg, they call my mother’s block “no love”. The store on the corner was closed down and we called that jawn “the murder show”. Why: wanna see someone get shot? Post there on a Friday and stay low. Somebody getting they wig pushed back.
From 55th & Ashland to 63rd and Raccine… Man, listen. I liken the scenery to actual factual Haiti.
You ain’t seen poverty until you seen niggas out there with the buckets scraping snow to put on kerosene heaters.

That’s true in some cases.
But gentrification is often more about wiping the slate clean to build anew rather than investing in what exists now and already working.

And lack of allocated funds to do something with.

a nigga will get a good job
instead of stayin in his coommunity he get far away from it as possible
if all the niggas in the hood that acquired money and a good lifestylee to support they fam didnt say “fuck u niggas im out” the hood wouldnt be the hood
its jus be a black community full of niggas thats doin good for themselves
