King Louie Slams Chiraq Hip Hop Critics



King Louie has a bone to pick with critics of Chicago Hip Hop. Chicago artists in this genre of Hip Hop have been under attack for their gritty tales of street life and violence.

King L compared his lyrics to a film with violence. The MUBU frontman went on to say he shouldn’t be criticized for rapping his life.

“…All you motherf*****s gotta say something about violence in our raps… stop going to promote and buy tickets to go see movies with violence in it with good actors,” he said.

“We just rapping our life b***h!” he added.



King L even defended his music during an interview with Fox 32.

“I play my bad role and narrate the negativity and the violence I grew up in Chicago. I’m just making it artistic,” the “Drilluminati 2” rapper said.



Gun violence has plagued the city of Chicago for decades. Many residents have renamed the Windy City “Chiraq” for its high rate of violence. Chicago, according to statistics, has a higher homicide rate than Kabul, Afghanistan.

Chicago has been under the national spotlight after ranking number one in the number of homicides recorded in 2012, according to a report released by the FBI.

There were 506 murder victims in the Windy City in 2012. There were 421 homicides recorded in 2013.

Chicago has long recorded devastating numbers over the past two decades.

Chicago recorded its highest peak of homicides in 1992 with 943 murders, according to statistics compiled by the Chicago Police Department.

Since 1991, there has been close to 15,000 murders in Chicago to date.
