im watching the full interview now and honestly didn't get it either when he first said it. what's "hood" about him grabbing food and tasting it?  :shannonsmissing:
am mean, is he throwing up gang signs as he drizzles the hot sauce on his chicken or something?

then Envy makes sure to mention he's "from the hood, but not ghetto".

Keith is so freakin adorable. and whats really "hood" and "ghetto" is DJ Envy associating himself with real estate scammers.

very....guttersnipe, if u will.

he tries to clear it up but sounds even more stupid

"i mean HOOD, like the restaurants WE go to! lol"

so all black restaurants and restaurants that black people patronize are "hood" now? :shannonsmissing:

Envy needs to go have a meeting with his lawyer or something
he shoulda quit while he was behind.

envy said "we" as he attempted to clear the comment up

Last time I checked envy is from nyc and New Yorkers don't usually describe themselves as "country bumpkins"

So I don't see how he had that in mind if he was tryna relate to Keith.

 Doesn't make sense at all.

I kinda think he meant what he actually said. Hood.

As in , you're the "hood" food critic. But there's really nothing "hood" about Keith Lee at all. So I understand why he took it as condescension and a seemingly playful description that actually belittles him and what he does.

I've seen a LOT of people belittle Keith - saying he's not a "real food critic", etc. This was the same thing , just packaged differently. And he clocked it.

There are so many words that have come to my mind when I think of why Keith is so successful. Relatable. Honest. Trustworthy. Down to earth. Foine lolz

"Hood" never crossed my mind.

The chuckling and cackling from Charlamagne and the co-host as Keith was giving a TEACHABLE moment about mislabeling his reviews as "hood" was annoying af.

Hood was definitely a poor choice of words, but it also wasn't that deep.

Sssdddddddddddd

I think Envy was just trying to say he's relatable.

"Are you saying that black restaurants are ghetto?"

Nigga, you know what he's trying to say.

thats possible

and if so, he honestly shoulda just said that when he tried to clear it up.

instead he went down a rabbit hole of more mess.

whats so hard about saying the word "relatable"
"people can relate to you."

sfsfnsfnsnfsnfnsfnsfsfsfnsf

especially when given the opportunity to explain what u meant

instead of going deeper into the "hood" and talking about restaurants we patronize
and letting us know you're "not ghetto" and blah blah blah blah

he kinda did it to himself.

I can agree, and I can also read between the lines. Sometimes it's just harder to verbally articulate yourself perfectly in the moment, especially compared to us taking our time in writing a message on a board.
