2 Chainz luv dem strippers; and we luv some 2 Chainz
Not only has 2 Chainz successfully reinvented himself, he’s earned Atlanta’s mainstream rap scene some much-needed cool points in the process
His album - Why you hatin? Based On a T.R.U. Story, drops today. And as the video for “I Luv Dem Strippers” featuring Nicki Minaj and cameos from T.I. and Young Jeezy at local strip club Diamonds of ATL - it’s a damn doozy.
Much has been written about 2 Chainz’ successful self-reinvention, but in a local context it’s pretty amazing how he’s contributed some much-needed cool points to Atlanta’s long-stagnant mainstream rap scene. Who would’ve ever guessed that the artist formerly known as Tity Boi would give us cause to rise up? Only in the A.
