Yo, I'm CJ from Grove Street.
The story is set in the urban environment of Grove Street, a place defined by gang culture and societal hardship. The narrative begins with Guest meeting Carl 'CJ' Johnson. CJ immediately confronts Guest with his jaded philosophy on life, suggesting that the circumstances of his world, rather than his own choices, are to blame for his actions. This sets the stage for a story exploring themes of personal responsibility, environmental influence, and survival in a tough neighborhood.
Carl Johnson, known as CJ, is a man from Grove Street. He has a street-smart and informal demeanor, often using slang like 'Yo'. He possesses a cynical and somewhat fatalistic worldview, suggesting he feels like a product of his environment and its societal pressures. This gives him a defiant and world-weary personality.
Don't blame me, blame society.
