STEEL SHARPEN STEEL<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

REPIN\u201d HOOD – Picture That!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked where I\u2019m from, Jersey spills off my lips faster than those swagga-dripped comebacks from all those folks proud to be callin\u2019 Brick City home. Can\u2019t nobody voicefully rep their home like my Newark Mocha kin. It\u2019s all about the way they say it. \u201cI\u2019m from Newark!\u201d is usually embellished with that handwave\u2014as if in praise to testify\u2014or a tight grip when those arms expand to enhance that response, along with the one-step, two-step toward ya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ask them about their hood? Forget about it. To date, in my opinion, can\u2019t nobody rep where they\u2019re from or where they at like NNNNEWARK do. Hands down!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So\u2026 I\u2019m from Jersey. My hands are waving. These arms are extended toward you, as in sync with the two-step. We from Jersey, for real. (Use the embellishments.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For a deeper dive, I did a Google search to see if there were other interesting ways to rep the Garden State. Google dropped the ball, I tell you\u2014for sure. Officially, we are New Jerseyans, but are commonly nicknamed Jerseyites. I abandoned seeking and finding immediately. Jersey it was and so Jersey it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what is official today is the kickoff of the Steel Sharpens Steel concept and projects. Even though, for me personally, I\u2019m always on the hunt and in hopes of finding reps that rep whateva or those who can do it better. In today\u2019s comparison, will it be us\u2014us as in Jersey\u2014or will those New Yorkers put us to shame in our own sections of town or in this Local Talk news section? Don\u2019t get it twisted, I love New York. Love the vibe. Let\u2019s just say there are a whole lot of kin from the Big Apple consuming space in my archives. IJS!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a PBA\u2014it\u2019s all about the pics. STEEL SHARPENING STILL is all about repin us. So, for future reference, you\u2019ll wanna check out the features or muses that are state repin\u2019 when they\u2019re state repin\u2019 or simply repin us when repin. I won\u2019t be telling you who is who or what just yet. Pay attention to the Gallery Crawl people. And perhaps I need not\u2014because you have the ability to peep out all those identifying markers, and there are identifying markers or scribble in those identifying markers when need be. But only if you can see what you see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So who you rollin\u2019 with or repin\u2019? Jersey or New York during my coming out project? Picture that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
