Even with headphones, some of those music can be heard on the subway a half car down...I can't imagine if they can pass a hearing test.
Wait 30 years. They will get SS disability because they can't hear...if the idiots live that long....

To keep the party going, bringing the loud ass music they rock out to at the club on the road with them. And of course to show out.

Its like an audio "gold chain" lol. But truth be told it was way more hectic back in the 80's and 90's when it came to subwoofer car game in NY. Pretty lame now...

I DEFINITELY have seen plenty of "guidos" and whites of all ethnicity blasting Hip Hop in their whips for the last 20 years plus. Who you think are the majority that buys hip hop records and go to the shows?

don't you mean you hate any type of music blasting from anyone's car?

maybe you don't pick up chics that way, so it bothers you, huh?

sometimes I don't like it myself, but I don't trip about it either.

Are you doing it simply for the benefit of the select other couple of mouth-breathers who also do this that may or may not be walking the street at any given time? Is it like a solidarity thing? Look, I know this is a city and cities are loud. But FFS man, do you need to circle the park blasting this nonsense when people are just trying to kick back on a weekend afternoon? Get out of your car and go for a jog or something. Put it in your earbuds and blast it if you need to. Either way, you're doing bad damage to your hearing by doing this all of the time.

And before anybody comments, I'm not a cranky old man. I am of the same age as a lot of the dudes that I see doing this. It simply baffles me. And no, I don't see guidos rolling around aimlessly blasting terrible house music or Sinatra at full clip in quiet residential neighborhoods. Or Irish kids sitting on the edge of the park cranking Dropkick Murphys so loud that the mom playing with her toddler 30 feet in can hardly talk to him/her. Just to get that out of the way...

Well I am a cranky old man and when I roll up on one of these bozos I put on my CD of Opera and turn it up louder hoping one of them will get the message

Leslie Grace - Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow - YouTube

How about the famous Bronx native Romeo Santos feat Usher ?

Romeo Santos Feat. Usher - Promise (English Version) - YouTube

I think it has a nice rhythmic sound. Gives the music more life.

Anybody would be hard pressed to find these antics from anybody else on the level of the homies flying around bumping reggaeton. Even black dudes and hip hop doesn't hold a candle. At least around here.

The first one is a 50's tune with some sort of latin twist on the rhythm.

I friggin lost it at the second one when the dude who is not usher started singing with the bad autotune and falsetto vocals LOL. That's gold, jerry. Gold.


Either way, these are not really what I'm referring to at all.

Edit: On second thought, that second one is kind of what you hear sometimes. F'n BLASTING lol. I don't get that at all. It makes me laugh at these dudes more than anything.

A lot of the car stereo blasting is exaggerated though. You can even hear the vehicle rattling and vibrating sounding like it's about to fall apart. And to add for those who are in the vehicle blasting loud music the sound is distorted and an earache.
