The storytelling of emcees from New York is what makes this city so great. LightUpp uses his linguistics as a paintbrush with this one. The Bronx Dominican shares his experience growing up in the Boogie Down. LightUpp explains that he use to get loosies (cigarettes) for the older heads in exchange for quarter waters. During those hot summer days when he needed something to quench his thirst the most, LightUpp picked up the thug lifesyle that influenced him today. Love the fact that LightUpp keeps dropping fuego on #TomaTuesdays.
