Steven Wilder

I saw on your IG story recently you were editing this video and you kept going thru Not Like Us mixes/mashups lol..there’s one on YouTube with We Can Freak It by Kurupt that’s 🤌🏽🔥🔥

Dope vlog Dee, this actually made me miss LA! I used to live there from 2017-2019 I moved back home when Covid started. I think the group y'all met up with while hiking was Black Girls Hike! If so I hiked with them at Runyon canyon! Such great memories. I loved the food there, the food trucks were my fave. And I used to go to this place called Taco Mell in Crenshaw! Fire burritos, you can have shrimp, chicken and steak! I was hoping you'd show some of the food spots you go to! Maybe next vlog. Thanks for the content Dee!

Dee Shanell

Aww thank you Rodrick, very nice of you to say. So glad you liked it 🤗 and yesss, come visit!!

Dee Shanell

Thanks Trudy! But yes, traffic is a nightmare ngl lol other than that though, LA is dope. Definitely come visit again :)

Sevn

Got me wanting to move to LA but then I remember I don't have Dee money 😔

BruhItsRodrick

AHHHH this was everything! I can only imagine how great it felt to film your hometown after filming so many other places☺️. I knew it was going to be cinematically a masterpiece based off the travel vlogs. Can’t wait to visit one day!

Trudy

LA definitely looks like a vibe. Always something to do, something I’ve been yearning for and a lot of things in walking distance is a plus. The traffic is probably the only downside I see. I need to take another trip out there for sure! Appreciate the good content Dee❤️

Dee Shanell

Thanks babes! 💕

Mazin

Shiiit I’m damn near a week late 💀 Great vlog tho! Keep up the good work… W Dee. 🙃

Dee Shanell

Thank you, appreciate that! I interchange 3 drones: a dji mavic, dji mini and a hoverair along with 2 different cameras lol which is of course unnecessary, I just bought them all overtime. I honestly feel a lot of drones give very similar results though as long as the specs are the same. I'd recommend just researching different models and figuring out what brand and price point makes the most sense for you

Alex Howell

The camera work & quality is crazy🔥I’m planning to upgrade my DJI drone, may I ask what you use?

Dee Shanell

Thankss 💕

advercity

that car is gorgeous omg

Dee Shanell

Lol appreciate you!

Dee Shanell

So happy you enjoy, thank you 😊

Devron Love

Oh I’d def be down to link up and do brunch or something when I visit! 😁

hvcn zo

i know i reacted already, but i felt inspired to tell you this, i feel like you really are bravehearted, dont know why but my intuition told to me to say it, not to be weird at all, i am just intuitive, i feel like you have some sort of a courageous light to be yourself, and please never forget that about yourself, thats it that was the message xD hahah i normally really dont do these type of reactings, i know i dont know you, but we are all in this together, at least by dont forget that, i mean to say, dont forget that you also have this impression of people, im sure im not the only one, so i wanted to speak for anyone who feel like that, if its only me, well :p its not the first time im the only one doing something, guess that will make me unique then lol.

Ishmael Bamba

I always love dees vlogs but I always love even more getting a peak into her music taste with the songs she uses like yesss c'mon sabrina carpenterrr

Laila A

Dee Shanell

Thank you! And will do, was already thinking of including my current reads in the vlogs lol

Dee Shanell

😂 glad you enjoyed the video!

Dee Shanell

Thank youuu, yall hype me up to get better! I appreciate it 🙏🏾

Dee Shanell

I initially commented on the go, but just re-read and excuse you, you know me who lives in LA! Lol hit me up when you visit, we can go to brunch or something!

Laila A

i love these lifestyle content vids sm!! 🫶🏽🫶🏽 it’s so enjoyable to watch, would love to hear more abt ur reading

Yassir Elmliles

Dee driving around isn't something I thought I needed till TODAY !! That was a kiiiiiii love the vlog

Astrapionté

OKAY VLOG!! The editing is fucking insaneeeeeee 💛

Dee Shanell

Nice, glad to hear this! I don’t actually enjoy working out at all though while I’m losing weight 😂 I do it because it gotta get done! Discipline over everything

Dee Shanell

Thanks Devron, appreciate it! ❤️

Nique 08

Hey Dee, love the vlog. You’ve definitely inspired me to workout out and start my weight loss journey. I just gotta start liking to workout lol.

Meli

😭😭😭😭 exactly! Can we do some type of Deehive NL meeting🤩

Devron Love

This was such a cool little weekly vlog! I definitely want to visit LA, I'm just north in Portland, so it's not too far, I just don't know anybody there like that, but I'm going to find some time to do so, so I will be more than likely checking out some spots you recommended in this vlog. And my homegirl just moved to San Diego so more reason to actually finally visit Cali I love big cities, good or bad rep, I enjoy them all. Portland isn't huge but it's big compared to my small ass hometown in Ohio so I dig it! LA always looked super dope and cool and I'm sure I'll love it! Def a fan of these vlogs, so if you have any ideas for others, would love to see them! And you always talking about your lack of fashion sense, but that outfit, the blue plaid shirt and jeans was super cute with the gold accessories, blue nails and glasses and shoes, you looked goodT Dee!

....

Damn you walking in the park made me now want to do that, appreiciate it. I stopped going to the park because dog always be barking at me and dog owners dont be doing anything lol, but imma still go.

....

People would go to this one specific area in a city and for some reason thats their whole view on that City. When will people realise that every city has got a specific area that isnt pleasant like London has it. Like make it make sense.

RedWolf

35:24 "Black Coochie Matters", I felt that.

Dee Shanell

Aww thanks so much! So happy you enjoyed 🤗

Dee Shanell

Lol glad you liked the vlog! But yes, I see it's common for people to move to big cities then complain when it has the components of a big city 😂 like, make it make sense!

aerih

yesss dee i love this type of content !! love seeing you drive lol 🤣 and i feel you on how you feel about people moving to LA and complaining lol, as a born and raised texan im tired of people moving here but complain like go away!!

Chet Kincaid

Of course and thank you Dee, I’ll keep that in mind. I was there for a few days in Feb and I took the subway and let me just say, had to clutch muh pearls. To me, the underground system of LA is similar to what they say NYC Times Square was in the 80’s-90’s. My head was constantly on a swivel.

Chet Kincaid

Hahah yes the Dominicans are somethin’ else.

Sachiii

Amazing vlog and the music choice is top tier wow 😍

Dee Shanell

Big facts 😂😂 Kendrick was spot on with that one! Lol

Dany

Dee-2 Qs lol Do you own or want to own property in LA or rather rent? Are u going to the Sabrina Carpenter tour in LA? it was so good and I went by myself too! The bed chem playing in the background is sending me ☺️

Ariel Pedroza

What lip tint do you use omgggg I love that shade 😍

Soul

“Dee learned that niggas don’t like the west coast and she’s fine with it, she’ll push the line with it” lmao

Dee Shanell

Glad you enjoyed :) but yesss definitely visit LA when you can, it's a whole different vibe you gotta experience at least once

Dee Shanell

Thank youuu 😊

Dee Shanell

Thanks so much Chet, that means a lot! And yes DTLA has a lot to offer but I definitely venture out though because LA is so big and I'd be missing out on a lot if I didn't. So tbh I recommend a car overall and our public transportation is trash lmao just fyi

Dee Shanell

No thank you! Really appreciate you being here 🤗

Dee Shanell

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed! And yesss, my solo adventures have been some of my favorite ❤️

Dee Shanell

Yessss don't let them come for your city, you gotta represent! 😂 but yeah the slander is so tired, especially when big cities provide 90% of the fun and entertainment lol it's just jealousy!

Dee Shanell

It's so peaceful! Lol

Cesar R🇩🇴

I love when people defend they home😤 thats how I be😂

Cesar R🇩🇴

Ive never been to Cali or the west coast over all. I immigrated from Dominican Republic to nyc/nj as a kid and never left this area. Can’t wait to visit. Really enjoyed this vlog!

Juicyy

the mic quality is so good

Chet Kincaid

C’mon drone shots and that “birds of a feather” mashup is 🤌🏽! One thing about you Dee, you’re always going to defend LA. Also, the way you picked up and went to the Shaboozey concert and not needing someone to go with you… 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. That part of your personality is one of the main reasons I love to watch your content and hear your opinions. Lastly, thank you for answering my question because I’ve been in NYC for a decade and haven’t driven since I lived back in The Bahamas. I’ve considered LA for career advancement and was wondering if I could even survive without driving but downtown LA seems doable.

Chelsea M

Can I just say how flawless your skin looks? And thank you for the vlog! It's always appreciated 🙃

clarence.

Loved this vlog! ❤️ Also LOVE doing activities solo! I always say: ''Be your own best friend FIRST and do things for and/or with yourself!'' Never experienced FOMO in my life because I just go and do the shit I want to do. Btw the blue plaid outfit was FLY AF💙🩵🦅🔥

mondawmin mall

In west bubble fuck is crazy

Meli

Ayeeee! I agree a 10000% it’s always them people from small towns too😅😂. I live in a big city in the Netherlands and people always say it’s so ghetto and look down upon certain areas, but they love the cultural activities, food, parties etc. 🙄🙄🙄 just shut up and leave if it’s so ghetto! I always have to defend my city #010

Nasir Walker

I just recently starting doing things by myself and it’s honestly so nice!

Dee Shanell

Exactly! Kudos to you for not being afraid of doing things solo, you'd be surprised how many people who are uncomfortable with their own company, it's wild lol

Dee Shanell

😂 thanks so much! Really been trying to get in my videographer bag lol

Dee Shanell

Serial killer houses 🤣🤣🤣 nah deadass!

Dee Shanell

Lmaoo

Dee Shanell

Yayy so glad you did 🤗

Dee Shanell

Dee Shanell

Thanks so much 😊

Dee Shanell

You should! Sometimes a change is necessary, just make sure you come prepared ❤️

Dee Shanell

Always! Lol but thank youu, happy you liked it :)

Dee Shanell

Thanks babess glad you enjoyed! 💕

Dee Shanell

Period! Lmao they run from their bum hometown, come flocking to our cities then want to constantly highlight the negatives smh

Dee Shanell

Girl this is goals for me too, my hyperpigmentation is back in full effect lmao my skin is struggling once again smh

gigu

good vlog dee! 🫶🏾 i’m glad you touched on going to concerts and doing things alone because i’m the same way, i got tickets for a show next year in a different city!!! i love doing things by myself because i can do whatever i want on my time, it’s the best feeling.

HeyMonté

The drone shots OOOHHH she said ✨production✨ you ate that 🤭

annoyedsquire

Nah I hear it 😂😂😂 same here in Paris... Gumboot wearing mofos always loud and proud of their "I know what you did last summer" serial killer houses in the middle of Brittany... Brittany?!?! Nah, stay over there Fréro (broski in french) we don't like you either 😂😂 😂

annoyedsquire

West Bubble fuck stand up 😂😂😂

hvcn zo

enjoyed this video A LOT

Rainbow

"Why you moving so fast?" I immediately thought about that meme of that guy asking the woman "Why are you running?" lmao 😂 I definitely enjoyed this vlog. I have to visit LA at some point.

Daniel

fire vlog loved to see u repping ur city as always

Saleem Peterson

At some point after college I’m definitely moving to la I really enjoy my time there and I’ve been in Philly my whole life so a change in scenery is definitely needed

Jose

One thing about Dee is she gonna defend her city!! PERIODD!! Amazing vlog as always!! Really enjoying these more casual vlogs 😻✊

Sen

Great vlog Dee🫶,would definitely love some more💯

RPL

I absolutely loved this vlog!! I live in NYC and I can relate to people always talking shit about my home city. Millions of people move to LA and New York, but no one is moving to other people's bum ass towns for a reason😂

Deccah K

Dee is actually skin goals, I had to comment again to say that😂😂 my hyperpigmentation could never

Dee Shanell

They be dragging LA, I gotta return that energy lmao

Dee Shanell

😂

Dee Shanell

LA is a vibe, definitely come visit lol especially since you know someone from here. They should be able to help you navigate the city so you have a good time :)

Nashty Doud

Dee always be looking all types of fine, talking about she looking crusty. Please stop lol 😂

Dee Shanell

Dee Shanell

StonePrime

Nashty Doud

Zyree

Dee stay draggin the LA migrants😭😭😭😭

Breezy

Omg Dee starting a vlog by dragging the transplants 🤣😩 I’m so grateful for this vlog just started🫶🏼

Michael Merriweather

My roommate is from LA actually so I’ve been more interested in going. It wasn’t really super super appealing to me but this vlog is piquing my interest I might have to pooch through soon! Don’t worry though…not to take up space like the transplants just a cute visit 😂 Also, I’m constantly saying “Boo nigga” and cussing people out on the road. 💀

Nashty Doud

I could tell from the beginning you had some road rage in you. Peeps definitely tested your gangsta in the past 😂😭😭

Nashty Doud

Lmao not the “you look like you’re..” line. That’s so outdated and never works 🤣

lilrickyfrm51

Lol the way you feel about LA is EXACTLY how I feel about Chicago. I be judging tf out of other state's downtowns when I visit lol Nothing can beat home, IG lol
