Hip Hop for the recession

You can't open a newspaper, or look online without seeing a reference to the recession. It's all doom and gloom all the time, which when combined with this miserable weather can make for a rather depressing mix. 

So what's the solution? 

Bring the recession into the studio and turn that frown upside down of course! 

Yes I know that sounds mad, but it is completely one hundred percent possible thanks to 'Thrift Shop' by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. 

Take this tune, some funky moves, a freestyle based on charity-shop shopping, and for an hour having only 'twenty dollars in your pocket' makes you the coolest person in the room. 

It's a pretty sure-fire way to cheer you up AND if that wasn't enough it reminds you that if you don't got it then all you gotta do is fake it till you make it. In other words you can choose to ACT FIERCE, even if you feel timid, and soon enough those around you will start to agree.
