A city east of the SF Bay, also known as the ‘town’. It’s split into three parts, North, West, and East Oakland. There’s no South. North Oakland is the hills. West Oakland has downtown, Lake Merritt, Chinatown, and Jack London Square. East Oakland has the airport, the Coliseum, and the zoo. Deep East Oakland is where the madness lives, sideshows, fools acting stupid, hyphy people, people sippin’ on yak or heem, and box chevs slap-hittin’ hard.
Yo, I was in Deep East Oakland last night and saw a guy tryin’ to dance on a fire hydrant. He got hyphy and fell off. Classic.
My cousin got in a box chevy fight in East Oakland. He came home with a broken nose and a new nickname, ‘Box Chevy Boy’.
I was at a showdown in West Oakland and watched a guy get hit with a lamp. He was yelling, ‘I ain’t dead yet!’, then he was.
