Jipsta Releases Video For "Too New York"

It doesn't get much more awesome than being an openly gay rapper. Jipsta is probably sick of hearing that, but it's really fun to say when telling people who he is. Truth is, he's more than that -- at least more awesome than that. Jipsta is an artist, a wordsmith, and a friend. Check out his new hilarious video for "Too New York".



This song has been around a while, so when he told me he was doing a video for it, I was pretty surprised. He has been working on a lot of new material, so a video for a song that has been out a year and a half seemed like an odd thing to do, but then again, Jipsta has never been too conventional. This song is actually my favorite from the whole album (which I told him to make a single. Glad he listened all this time later.), as it has a lot of flavor and personality to it.

The video itself is a sort of eclectic collection of things anybody who really knows New York would see. No tourist spots here, only the streets, sights, and people that the every-day New Yorker would see. The video is a bit of a step up quality wise from "U Got", looking much sleeker and professional grade. This time around he's spared no expense, including a few custom made street/metro signs, adding that distinct "Jipsta" flavor to the mix.

Though it may be a little late, the video is still welcome in my book. Hell, any Jipsta related material is welcome. Now, where do I go to complain about that new song not being out yet?
