When some people arrive in a city they're not from, they check in with respected locals for protection.

The practice, which was once criticized by ScHoolboy Q and championed by Rich Homie Quan, has been discussed a lot since Big U was arrested last month since he's accused of collecting money for check-ins.

Former NBA player Stephen Jackson spoke about checking in while on the One on One With Mike D podcast, and he's all for it.

Some might remember that he was accused of checking in before going to Chicago's O-Block in 2022.

"Let's clear up the O-Block sh*t. I'll give a million dollars to anybody that you can find in O-Block that said I checked in ... I ain't no checking in n*gga. I pulled up on the youngins," he explained.

"The problem is, everybody can't go," Jackson continued. "When I go places and there's n*ggas that I love [there], I do check in. I ain't checking in for protection, I'm checking in to let a n*gga know, 'I'm in your state, n*gga, let's link up.' I don't need no protection."

What are your thoughts on the practice of checking in?
