Once you get past places like Newark to places like Winnetka or Winter Park, describing yourself as a street kid, even if you're an actor in a TV show or movie portraying a character that isn't you, is starting to sound silly. These are not places guys like Tupac grew up, so it makes the authenticity of a character or role questionable. Actors do portray people other than themselves for a living, but their most memorable roles tend to be the ones closest to who they really are at heart, otherwise the authenticity and sincerity of the character is off if it's there at all.
Playing a role or character that isn't anything like you isn't relatable to anybody, and it doesn't do anybody any good. It keeps people from seeing what kind of character this person would really be if they were authentic, which traps a person's head rather than freeing up space to think, no matter how liberating or authentic the person claims to be.
