August Alsina Talks About Being From The Block With Dudes Slanging Rocks [Video]

He was only 4-years old when Notorious B.I.G. got shot — and as a child of Hip Hop, August Alsina truthfully shares his story. As small as he is, our boy always seems to be eating. Beginning his chat with the crew, here he is again — grubbing y’all. He quickly jumps into Alsina mode and starts educating us on “Hip Hop” — bouncing thoughts off with Sway on the importance of respecting the struggle. August says, “I’m not just talking about me, I’m talking abut my generation. I’m talking about what I see as I go through life, as I ride through the hood; this is what I see … People just trying to get enough bricks to make a house.”
