For some strange reason, this week just about every hip-hop site I’ve visited has included a post featuring a god-awful Youtube video titled, “It’s So Cold in the D”. I kind of feel bad for the cats that made the track, albeit the song is really bad, but there’s plenty of garbage out there so I don’t think the track deserved as much public ridicule as it’s received.

I did a search on Youtube to find the track, having already seen it on various sites, I was curious to find out how much traffic this thing was actually pulling.

Instead I stumbled on another video titled “It’s So Cold in the D”, but this one was a far cry from the joint that we’ve all come to know and love. The video was by another Detroit artist named K.Crump. I’m not sure if his video ironically shared the same title as it’s much-discussed counterpart or if K.Crump just retitled his video to catch traffic. Either way, it worked because I’m thoroughly impressed. If I had to describe the sound, I’d have to say it’s early-Biggie meets M.O.P., which is pretty good company to be in.

So here’s some free promotion for K.Crump for proving that not everyone is cold in the D.
