I was looking forward to smoking some more of that OG Kush my dealer had, but he disappointed me when he handed me this sack of Skreets.

When the streets go so hard in the paint that it turns into the skreets. A “skreet”makes the “street” look like an upper class neighborhood with white picket fences and all. Also makes the ghetto look like everyone has a mansion, yacht, and a swimming pool, meanwhile the skreets have nothing good to offer since everything dried up.
My homie Tiquan used to live in the skreets but he applied himself and worked his way up the ranks and out and is now a heart surgeon and lives a very successful life.

Man you don’t want to mess with old man Jenkins, he started from the bottom of the bottom in the skreets and knows a thing or two about whuppin someone’s ass if they step out of line, and that’s before he joined the Marines
