Junclassic–whose Overqualified is out now–gets into his first arrest, when he passed the douchie on the wrong hand side…
My First Arrest by Junclassic
I’m chillin in Baisley Park in Southside Queens. It’s me and my nephew, E.P.I.C. He’s 15 at the time but grown in the mind. I brought two L’s, stuffed wit that BK murder chocolate, wit me. So I light up… vibin wit Ep. Soon as I pass the L to him, I hear a van screeching up. Through the park!! Only “the boys” do that shit. I froze like death was coming.
Two white officers hop out, snatch the L out my hand and pat me down. Then one pulls out the cuffs. I’m thinkin’, “Damn!! Fuck it, long as E.P.I.C. cool.” Then they cuff him! I couldn’t believe it!!
E.P.I.C. kept me calm by talkin’ about video games the whole ride to 113th. The boys told me they were watching me and weren’t gonna bag me until I passed the L to “a minor.” I felt horrible.
My brother Tony came and scooped E.P.I.C., who they cuffed to a chair. After that, I rode out the night, doing push ups and listening to dudes talk about what they got knocked for. Left that same night… out into the cool Queens Boulevard night time breeze.
