Despite having one of the most memorable verses from "Enter The 36 Chambers" on "Da Mystery Of Chessboxin'", Wu-Tang member U-God, is still one of the most overlooked in the group.

Nitty Scott, MC - Skippin' Clouds (Video)

Seriously, people need to spend less time checking for anything that happens to feature Nicki Minaj. She definitely has skills but hasn't chosen to use them as of late. One young lady who has been putting in work for a number of years now, is Nitty Scott, MC.

Last year she dropped her first album proper, "The Boombox Diaries Vol.1", after a slew of mixtapes which are all definitely worth getting a hold of. This video, along with "Flower Child" below it, are both taken from the former and need more people's attention. If you enjoy either of the videos, please make sure you spread the word.

Here's the synopsis of "Skippin' Clouds" followed by the video. "Flower Child featuring Kendrick Lamar" can be seen below that.

"In “Skippin’ Clouds”, Nitty Scott, MC takes on the roles of a depressed 50′s house wife, a 70′s socialite who likes to party, and even a grungy heroin addict as the visual explores drug culture in different eras. The song’s airy high provides the perfect backdrop for a walk down trippy lane, deep in a substance-induced trance as she raps about everything from Bob Marley to vicodin and chakras. Whether taking drugs is about escapism, pure indulgence, or a quest to find deeper meaning, the stories show the duality of drug use and how they can lead to both pleasure and pain."
