San Antonio-based MC Chris Conde has never been one to shy away from being proud of who he is. No pun intended, but you get more straight talk about the game from Chris Conde than you do from many of his hetero, cis peers. In the video we get direct addressing of peoples’ unfounded fears of a gay rapper, plenty of proof that his drive and skill level has nothing to do with his lifestyle, and tons of humor on top of everything to let people know that the issues really aren’t worth the venom they normally receive. Rather it be skateboarding, prepping wigs, walking down the street eating icees, or just doing the normal posturing associated with hip-hop, Chris Conde is here to force diversity and open-mindedness into a scene that has needed it for quite a while.
