Tree - “Like Whoa” (OfficialVideo)

Chicago is a truly great city, but it’s currently deep into a winter that sounds incomprehensibly hellish, and the town could probably use some reason to feel good about itself. So I give you the raspy-voiced Chicago rapper/producer Tree’s video for “Like Whoa.” Tree’s The MCTreeG EP earned Mixtape Of The Week last week, and the video capitalizes on his plainspoken blue-collar charm, showing him in both his hometown’s grimier slums and in its sparkling, beautiful downtown. If you’ve spent some time in the city, it will make you want to go back.
