Stephen Jackson Goes To O-Block, Receives Backlash & Fires Back

by Benny Franklin

Former NBA champion Stephen Jackson recently slid through O-Block and made sure everyone knew he was there, at night-time and with all his jewelry on. 

“I’m on O-Block…I couldn’t be out here in Chicago and not tap in with the real ones. That’s why I’m the realest. I’m out here, on the block. With my jewelry on, n***a! You can’t come out here if you don’t check in with the locals. I don’t give a f*ck what block you go to, if from there ain’t on the block, you not welcome. F*ck you mean! We do this sh*t the G way! We under the old law, not the new law…I pull up and take pictures and y’all not allowed to…rest in peace King Von…”

Since then, the 44-year-old has been blasted on social media with people accusing him of being too old to visit, doing it for the clout or not giving back while he was there. 

Stephen Jackson going to Oblock is cringy. Ppl work hard to get out the projects these mfs going to visit. They won’t invest a DIME into parkway to help make it safer or improve the quality of housing. Chile
