Chicago emcee Fairplay impressed me with his newest music video I Got The City. It was submitted to me from one of his supporters, and from the jump I could see why he’s gaining clout throughout the city.

Just a few months ago he dropped a compilation tape with his crew, titled Family and Money. It was pretty rough, but Fairplay shined and was the obvious star of the show. There’s no surprise he released a follow up, up to par with his music.

It’s a simple message, but not braggadocios. Although it was almost 5 minutes, I never got tired of his wordplay and slow rollin flow. The song was produced by Law Beatz, and self directed. It’s a strong message of his determination to make 2017 his best year yet.
