Wake Up!: Spud - For the City/ Paper Chase (Video)

The visuals on this joint are OFFICIAL. Spud released this joint last year but he believes it didn't get the attention it deserved. He's right. Nice to see them South Side City streets flashing through this joint, and Spud never lacks for confidence on the track. We got the .mp3 version of For the city available after the jump. Check Spud out, and don't forget to tell him who put you on!
