An Easter in jail – Kristina Chetcuti

You will remember Jennifer Lopez’s single Jenny from the Block in 2002. The chorus went something like this: “Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got / I’m still, I’m still Jenny from the block / Used to have a little, now I have a lot / No matter where I go, I know where I came from (from the Bronx!)”. The song was meant to be autobiographical – a rags-to- riches tale of someone who’s still rooted in their background. Very touching and all that. The only thing was that when it came out, it caused a stir among the residents of the Bronx neighbourhood. They could see through her act – J-Lo’s ditty was not motivated by love of her origins, she had turned her back on the Bronx the minute she had reached stardom.
