Lupe's Best Yet...






Lupe's New Video... This is some serious heat from Chi-Town's newest, "cool kid approved" hip-hop ambassador. Lupe's also being generating so muchhype, and general good sentiment that folks blindly back him up. It's refreshing to see some one inspire this cynical urban culture again. Now I just wish we could get back to the basics. Lupe's videos kind of embody this generation's skateboarders and creative types progression in one fell swoop.
From blindly cruising around everyday for the love of skating, travel, and a creative viewpoint only articulated by wandering the streets with your board --->
To the stylized responsibilities of a job in a place overflowing with all the accoutrement of our newly labeled "street culture." I think the progression in Lupe's videos portrays the culture of northwest Chicago perfectly over the last few years...
I also think it's endemic of the country's culture/attitude (why is Lupe blowing up?). Check the videos above yourself, see what I mean.
