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.

Get the Role mug.Movies often stretch the truth about something quite a bit to make it more entertaining than it actually is, since something closer to reality might bore an audience in 5 minutes. People are not really too interesting most of their lives, except just after they are born and just before they die, and roles/characters in movies lead people to believe otherwise a lot of the time.
Some people would think Lowell was like Southie by watching a movie. It's got it's parts that some would unkindly describe as run down areas, and it might be blue collar, and there are problems everywhere, but calling it the inner city is a stretch. Some of the roles people show people are not the exact reality of what something, somewhere, or someone is really like, they can be misleading.
