Los Angeles is thought to be a dangerous place for a rapper.

As a nod to the city's notorious gang politics, rappers from out of town will often "check in" before landing in LA.

SchoolBoy was raised in South Central and still lives in the city.

He thinks checking in is for fools.

"Everybody be checking in.  That's y'all favorite thing to do.  Check in with somebody that's going to rob you?  Stupid ass.  You think that guy that you don't know in California got your back?  The guy that got beef with other hoods, you check in to that?  Bro, just go to the hotel.  Get yourself something to eat.  Got have some fun.  Sh*t is fun.  Why do you want to go over there?  For what?  Don't call me.  Motherf*ckers have the nerve to call me sometimes.  What are you talking about?  I'm playing video games, my daughter has a soccer game tomorrow," Schoolboy said.
