Video: Hmong (and Minnesota) hip-hop heritage in the New York Times

leave a comment »

This is amusing. A New York Times video segment about Minnesota Hmong rapper Tou Saiko Lee. Lee raps about his Laotian heritage, and what it’s like to live in Minnesota. HILARIOUS: I saw Delicious Venom do a spoken word thing at the Loft many years back. They sounded a little green then, so it’s good to see that they’ve kept pushing and gained greater recognition.

Update: The embedded video isn’t loading (apologies), so click through (highly recommended).
