Chicago became the cultural center of America in '08. The Chi is teeming with fresh new ideas across the board, but it's their contributions to music, politics & art that set them apart this year.

These four dudes have everything to do with the direction that Chicago's music and fashion scenes are taking. They are in N.Y. for CMJ all week, and doing several shows together. If they don't perform this song I'll lose my shit and prolly end up shooting up the whole motherfuckin' club.
