Before ’Bama native and Atlanta resident Yelawolf became the Interscope artist-on-the-rise that he is today, he paid some unorthodox dues — doing everything from working on an Alaskan fishing boat to being a skate-rat in Berkeley, Ca.

Turns out dude was pretty much homeless for most of the year he spent in Berkeley. He relives it while revisiting his old stomping ground there in Peoples Park. The most haunting party of the video follows, when he performs his blog hit "Pop the Trunk" with bare-bones piano accompaniment. Chilling stuff, courtesy Yours Truly.
