Video: Dollar Ride & Rap

With public transportation costing a pretty penny these days, some young Brooklyn entrepreneurs have created Dollar Van Demos. As the name suggests, the van provides rides for one buck, mostly in neighborhoods under-served by the MTA. The business declares, "the ride is cheap, adventurous and now immensely entertaining with the addition of performers singing their hearts out." That's right, the van doubles as a showcase stage for talented musicians, rappers and comedians. The best thing is, the performances (and audience reactions) are recorded and logged on their YouTube page. It's so hard to pick a favorite! Here's one regular, Sally Connors, belting it out.

FreeWilliamsburg puts their spotlight on frequent van rapper Crosby, whose other work you can check out at his website: Crosmopolitan.com. It is our hope that a Crosby and Connors collaboration is in the works.
