I Miss the Old Atlanta

[NoCompetition]

Them pre Olympic days are long gone. The rest of the 90s was pretty off the hook too. I get kinda nastalgic for the pre olympic days. After that it just...got crowded and crazy.

Nigga first time I came to Atlanta I went to the station . Line wrapped around the corner. Bitches was on the poles taking they clothes off. Bottles were cheap. Pussy everywhere and available. I went to dancers elite on Marietta street it was cool but pinups was the shit. Atlanta is forever my shit

Haha old enough to have been around. was like a whole different place. Take the traffic down to "not even really an issue" range. Not seeing or knowing about that era isnt exactly an accomplishment. In many ways it was superior. There was so much...It was its own city. Im happy to have been there there is no frame of reference today.

Dawg...Who you telling.???

I was just a Kid but We had real CULTURE then.

Hittin the Oomp Camp shop to cop the newest DJ Jelly tapes and Baby D album.

Ghetto Mafia was killin shit for the Eastside, Kilo Ali, Raheem the Dream, Dungeon Family was in full force, Lil Jon was emerging from the Bass Scene and transitioning into Crunk.

We still had some Housing Projects left, Cascade for Westside... Golden Glide for the Eastside, the car culture, Everybody held events OUTSIDE. Glenwood day and the other Hood Days was Major shit, and you knew shit was gonna get shot up but you still went anyways.

We not even gon talk about Freaknik.

I know it, I stay here and from Arkansas. "I flew here" as Tity Boi would say. I'm 31....I remember the OGs talking about how lit it was when they visited there. Idk, pre Olympics days was 21 years ago. Folks talking about the "good ol' days" when they were 13 years old.

Man used to go to Golden glide in elementary school. We could walk to that righ in the hood. (it woulda been a pretty long walk but possible) got rides.

"Made moves, broke free, New Deal , big D" We used to walk to South Dekalb mall as teens. The 90s was my teen years. Went to Freaknic 94 probably greatest ever...wasnt nothin like that before of since there was all kinda stuff. Used to catch the 86 it would go up Wesley Chapel then get on 20 and go straight downtown to 5 points hang out downtown. those were my teen years. Last time I looked I guess its the 186 now dont know where that goes. Caught the 15 Candler rd. Old school Decatur. Its amazing here now but, its not the same as it was then. Just a whole different story.
