Trivia

• If the windows to the car you are driving are open, smoke from Jacob's marijuana will be seen seeping out of them (this happens anytime Jacob is in a car with Niko and the windows are open). Despite this, Jacob will still say that he would rather Niko keep the windows closed so they can "hot-box", i.e. keep the smoke in the car. Jacob will say this even if Niko uses a motorcycle.
• The mission is named after one of Bob Marley's songs; Concrete Jungle, which also plays on Tuff Gong Radio.
• Even if the player enters a vehicle other than Little Jacob's, the default radio station will be Tuff Gong Radio.
• When Little Jacob calls Niko while he is looking out, there will be a small delay when trying to accept the call.
