I just read somewhere that one example of the NYC rap community giving up ground to the rest of the country is that people here are calling them "grills" and not "fronts" like they used to.

I'd like to thank and curse whoever it was here a few months back who introduced me to Fay Cullen's jewelry website. I want all of these rings!
And I'll take these earrings, as well please.

I know a man my age whose father is 5'4" and mother is 4'10". The son ended up 5'2". Which, for a man, is teeeny. Especially next to me.
Also, Nutty is only 5'6". She's cheating up as a result of her height-related insecurity.

Pimps don't walk, they stroll.

Or she's adding in her cheetah stomping boots.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
My grandmother was 4'10" and my grandfather was 5'2". My dad ended up 5'6" and his brothers were a staggering (for my family) 5'10". Don't know how that happened.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Pimps don't walk, they stroll.
Nonono. I may not be certified yet, but I lived in Detroit for years. Pimps walk. It's a punctuated, syncopated rocking bounce. Stroll is way too even and unsnazzy to describe a pimp in motion.

ChiKat, were your grandparents likely to have been malnourished (or even just underfed) as children? I know in Greece all the old ladies are 5 feet tall, and all the grandsons are 5'10". Because when the old ladies were young, everyone was really poor and hungry a lot. So maybe your grandparents had tallish genes that never got a chance.
