Street Cred

allen iverson Street Cred 

You see, I learned late in life that when you have street cred, you attract attention. Women are mystified by men who have street cred. Women think “he’s mysterious, I wonder what he’s thinking…” When you have street cred, people think you’re a ‘bad boy’. SAMs need to get more of this street cred. You see, most SAMs are model minorities – they follow the rules, are passive, complacent, subservient, and never ever break the law. They follow the strict and narrow road that leads to countless clones of SAM. We need street cred. We need to have that edge and create this persona of a ‘bad boy’. Yes, we are accountants, doctors, and lawyers, but…at night, we need to be baaaaaaad. And I don’t mean go out and steal white girls’ underwear or high heel shoes. That’s creepy. We need to start fights in public and let people know we don’t take shit from anyone. And yes, even from the Black folks…well…actually, let’s not mess with them…they can fuck us SAMs up pretty good I would imagine. So leave the Blacks alone. Allen Iverson has it. Kobe Bryant now has it. And I personally think Yao Ming should get it but he’s too good of a guy. Street cred ups the ante, it increases your stock value. Nike shoes sales go up when a certain NBA star gets street cred. It’s all about the perception and creating that illusion that yes, Long Duck Dong….is one bad motherfucker. Don’t fuck with him. Or else, he’ll do a couple of chop sueys on your ass.

One thought on “Street Cred

  1. You got that right! Yao Ming is probably the only NBA superstar you’re gonna see on a commercial using a laptop next to Minnie-Me! Who else would fit the role of a gentle giant? Obviously, not Zo or Shaq. In any case, I wanna see him portrayed as a bad ass asian male, cuz he can ball!

    But, don’t be hatin’ and causing trouble in your quest for Street Cred. Just keep it cool and laid back. – SAM
