       Pia nilipata kujua maana ya neno Bodega kama ambapo iliwahi sikika kwenye moja ya nyimbo za Big punisher alipo sema my father’s Bodega kwenye intro na kufafanua ya kwamba neno Bodega ni la kispanish likimaanisha panapo tengenezwa wine, ama corner store mjini new york ambapo huuzwa wine,vilevi mbali mbali na vitu vyote vihusuvyo starehe ikiwemo urahisi wa kupata condoms hata nyakati za usiku huwa pako wazi masaa 24 siku saba za wiki 24/7 kwenye hiyo corner store  wanapatania ya kuwa ni an organized mess place,nikmrahisishia kwa kusema an organized place in a disorganized manner? akasema thats whats up kwa kuwa ukienda kwenye a corner store kulikuwa kuna taka taka karibia za aina zote anazohitaji mtu kwa nyakati za usiku na mchana na hutumika kama maskani na kupanga kuhusu mitikasi pamoja na kupeana mistari ma dj,rappers watu wa aina zote kwenye harakati walikuwa wakitia maguuhapo hata mkiwa hampatani mtaani mkifika hapo kila mtu huwa peacefull ni kiduka kona ambacho watu wa jinsia zote na kutoka pande zote kupata huduma,kwa upande wangu nilipata picha ya gengeni ambapo mara nyingi vijana hukaa hapo ndani ya bong na kuganga njaa ama wakihesabu magari ama kwa kuwalaghai mabinti hahahahaa!

 

                          So a lot of things happening at a bodega store you name it as the aim of the Brooklyn Bodega ambapo ndiye mama wa Hip Hop festival tamasha ambalo hufanyika kila mwaka mjini New York tangu lianze limekwisha fanya matamasha nane mpaka sasa na mwaka huu limekwisha fanyika ,ambapo watumbuizaji wa kuu walikuwa Buster Rhymes na Tribe called Quest na host Mkuu wa tamasha hilo miaka nenda miaka rudi akiwa ni Uncle Ralph.
