For their latest clip, the Bogus Boys linked up with fellow Chicagoan, Kobe, who has been making a lot of noise recently for his vocals on Eminem’s “Talkin’ 2 Myself” off his Recovery album.
The video, which was directed by Da Visionaryz, takes a close look into the paranoia that accompanies fame and fortune and the pearls of success. They got me noid, they got me noid, but I ain’t paranoid.
Don’t Feed Da Killaz Vol. 3 drops on Halloween, so be prepared.

Everytime I have seen LEP doing some shit this year, it has always been some big shit! From shows wit somebody from out of town or solo, the hellafied visuals they been dropping, all the way 2 what matters the most: the music! If niggas still hating on Infared Music Group, they goofy as hell, because LEP BOGUS BOYS RAN CHICAGO IN 2010!!!! I got family all over the US especially the South, even they been asking me ” Who dem rappers that be down here in the A all the time, one of ’em got braids…”

This shit came out dope!!! I was there for the making of some of this. Thanks to Noyz and E for lettin me be apart!
man these dudes stay consistent with the bangers! nice work again and the da visionaryz make another MTV worthy video to boot.
Just wondering… since the mixtape is the new demo now-a-days, how are these brothers making money? ’cause if they’re still on the block on some illegal shit to maintain the rep they have built up they will end up with Bump. I just dont see how a mixtape that I can download for free is going to A. put money in these brothers pockets and B. sign a major deal. Since rappers dont rap over old beats for mixtapes anymore, with all the money LEP spent on producers for a mixtape, by the time the album comes around the money done ran out… unless you depend on the label money and advances, but then you are forever endebted. Good song, but i’m not sure about the business since behind all these mixtape efforts and the overall objective, the dots are just not connecting right…. a new mixtape means you are not signed yet, and although that is a traditional and albiet old way to measure success, it still means a lot. Chicago rappers forever have had talent but no real business sense. Shout Out to Psycho Drama for never selling out, yea, they are not signed but they saw what the industry was on; there is a payoff. But LEP got the swag, the image… all that shit the industry is thirsty for, but “shotty” will not get radio play for shit, especially considering they are Chicago rappers and all the gang/gun violence as of late. If they were from ATL they would have been on… that money gone run out soon, just hope you don’t run into a bank for resolve, get your business sense up.

Dope (period)
IN business you allow your stronger more established businesses to pay for your developing business. companies will operate at a loss for years before they become successful. by investing into your brand the goal is that over time your products noteriety becomes worth the investment resulting in a profit. Its not about getting a deal. Its about building a brand. The long term payoff is where the dots add up… and the perception as 2 whats being spent….. I dont believe its in the best interest of a good businessman to go broke 4 any 1 particular endeavor. Knowing these cats the way I do. I can assure u thats not the case here….
@patrick, The music industry is not like opening a small business, or any business for that matter, where you take a loss before you see a gain; If you are you use your own money its a gamble because at the end of the day you could have a wonderful product, but with lackluster promotion/publicity/advertisint/noteriety/exposure you are dependent on the market and fans to purchase yoru product. LEP makes music for the streets, the streets are not going to purchase their music legit, where is money being made? I just see money spent. Lets be real, unless you have been in the industry since an early teen/twenty something, there is no market for a mid-30 artist on a first effort Album, odds are against these brothers, just check the facts. Money will not ultimately be their meal ticket as MC’s, mabye behind the scenes. I support Chicago and our artists, and I support LEP, but honestly, another mixtape is somewhat depressing news, Same for Mikkey, Sly etc. Chicago gets no love from the industry… only when artists try to prove their street credibility and need a plug do we get due respect; musically, overall, with all the talent we have… and I can think of 150+ artitst off the top of my head, we get no love. Caint knock LEP’s hustle, but will it amount to record sales and earned money? BUT I do support these brothers, don’t get me wrong… and I will pay the $15… if the album ever drops, but until then, download for free= FAIL

chief we appreciate you knowledge but if your in tune with the industry you have to understand branding that what LEP does ,more then that you right chicago artist get no love but these dudes im sure could have taking a deal but ,i think their brand is growing but lets be funky, its the djs fault that more people from the chi are not on,also how old is ross,or maybe gucci jeezy age has nothing to do with it .your knew until you come out .have your heard of wiz khalifa or currency well these dudes have mixtapes or maybe coolkids but with lep underground push and there more intense want to succed they are on the right path also they have more leader ship then bump j did i ,think but your more of a nay then a yay but i really dont think you support them and psycho drama should ???have taken a deal if they had a chance beacuse you yell their name but probably wont support them because real fans are just that fans ,one thing for sure they rep chitown even when most dont . also they are not the cause of violence people understand music and as long as its poverty their music will be relevant nobody want to hear hear people talk about shit with no substance but not all shoot them up either so my conclusion is chief your a under cover hater you momma told if you have nothing good to say shut thee fuck up . good job lep the village checking in.
Maybe Im biased – I’ve been rocking with LEP for about 15 years now, I see the grind up close, there are times when I don’t agree with the decisions they make but Im not involved in their business, so my understanding of those decisions is from the outside looking in. But Cheif here is where you are wrong the music industry IS just like operating a small business! The problem with Chicago cats is that we assume that we need a record company to hold our hands to help us achieve our goals. Thats bullshit ! E40 has been making a grip in Oakland for 25 years ( he never gets radio play outside of that region ) The internet has become the biggest threat to the record industry in history simply because it provides a system of distribution that most small businesses can’t/ couldn’t afford . Im a fan of Chicago so when you mention Mikkey – LEP , etc.. I would love to see them all blow but what has to happen is exactly what LEP is doing consistently building there brand and fan base . if you have a brand you can sale (products) not just music – if you have fan they will support your music and your products …. with that being said there is no need for a middle man build your brand build your fans and stop depending on ( someone else) to save you !!!!
Spoken like a genius Tou…..
At the end of the day, if you do not have the internet, you have no clue who Mikkey, LEP etc are, Periiod! Fuck branding… LEP was out west and nobody new who they were! All those years of grinding dont mean shit! Chicago does not know the words to the songs, you will not hear their music at the club in Chicago, and they have no new material. Does anybody else see this? Ok, instead of mixtapes, why don’t these artists put their money up and make an LP? put a complete body of work together with no dj. obviously its not that easy… but a mixtape, shit, I could drop one next week if i wanted too. Everybody made a good point, but there is no ABC formula to this game. Lets just sit back and watch LEP within the next year. After Halloween, if all they contribute is features and more mixtapes, you tell me how productive/counter productive it is to making real money and having the whole Chicago/industry behind them.
West Side
What you all don’t KNOW is that LEP has real deal options and has had them for the last 6 months. The reason why you all dont understand the moves is because most of you dont have the type of resources that LEP has. If you are a rapper with a day job of course it wont make sense to you that LEP would not take a deal for $3-400,000… They have that type of bread…Why get raped for what you have already??? No matter where it comes from, the street or real estate their resources go far beyond the average artist. Get this correct People did know LEP and more specifically Moonie that were at the video shoot for Gucci its just that Gucci is waaaay more famous and NOT from here. Thats like saying nobody knows T-Mac cuz he’s in a room with Lebron James and nobody was chanting T-Mac. You wont hear alot of local cats music in chicago in ANY clubs cuz our DJ’s are whack as SHIT and all think they are A&R’s for their own Whack ass artists. Which also has everything to do with why nobody knows who the local stars are when they walk pass them on the street in Chicago. Lastly, Anyone that says “FUCK BRANDING” isnt that bright at all. Branding is business 101 and the key to longevity in ANY market. If you plan to make bread at any one thing for more than a season then branding is the ONLY way to do it.
How the fuck is Chief hating and he telling you the truth about the music business. See you fans confuse knowledge with hatin’. I’m from the Chi and I’m in the industry. The truth is I would love for LEP Bogus Boys to do it big and get on because that will help other Chicago artist get a good look. But you fans don’t know shit about business and so you automatically assume its hating. If I say LEP need to make a more creative song that appeals to the masses you fans would say I’m “hating”, when in actuality I’m showing love by being honest with them. There music is strictly for Chicago and the street niggas, if you want to make money from music you have to appeal to a more broad fanbase so I agree with chief although my reasons are different. Of course a lot of you on here are passionate about being a true fan, and thats cool but that doesn’t sell records. I think its cool that LEP gives out the mixtapes for free because that spreads the music around faster since its FREE but if your product doesn’t match up to something everybody can relate too then thats where it will remain in the streets. And I know damn well E not spending this money just so the streets can relate. They been had a buzz in the streets for over 5 years now. Its time to reach a more national level. They already proved themselves to the streets now its time to get about 3 commercial tracks so they can get that million dollar deal and prove themselves to the people with that real money. But let me guess, this is hating? Naw its not lames, its called business. Do you think Jay Z and Ye was worried about you calling them sellouts. Hell naw they got that money now. And I know LEP about that money so all you lames screaming hate can SHUT THE FUCK UP.
Stick to the post at hand
This vid is SICK!!!!!
^I AGREE. THE VID IS SICK. THE PROBLEM IS LEP NOT SICK NEITHER ARE THEY SONGS. NO TALENT AT ALL. JUST ANOTHER DRUG DEALING ASS GROUP THAT THINK THEY CAN CROSS OVER TO RAP
At the end of the day the music is getting better the videos are getting better the penetration into the game is getting deeper, and the brand is getting stronger. If you feel you can do better put your money and your talent on the line for the world to judge. Im sure you will have detractors as well. I support anyone with a vision who is out here trying to make it happen. You dont know it all from the start. your work ethic and persistance determine your success. If you @ da crib blogging like you a ceo… look in the mirror dog critique yourself… then get out here in this shyt… you might just be the key to unlock this shit for everybody…..
^And that’s the point. Ur one opinion on the situation don’t count. This industry is a business and that’s what u goofies don’t understand. Business is business. U think LEP doing this just for u local niggas support. Please! They tryna get to the real money. Not these weak as bubble gum deals they bean offered. After this mixtape come out on Halloween I bet u they try to go more commercial. U street dudes don’t realize your opinion really don’t count. You not the one pumping money into this music shit.You all buy bootlegs anyway. You gotta reach that mtv crowd for that real money. You clowns think LEP spending millions for your approval? Hell NO they wanna be rich. I guarantee you clowns they going to come more commercial for 2011 then you dumbass dick riders gone be biting your tongues. This a business dumbasses. This about money not your opinion.
If you been paying attention A relationship with MTV has been established…. As the material and noteriety increase so will the presence on MTV…. do more home work homie…. talent is 15% of success the rest is all business. How many niggas actually thought Gucci or Waka flocka was hot when they 1st heard em?…… like I said before if you know so much get out here….we out here… were u at?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ What? Any artist can get on MTV2. Do your research and find out what you’re talking about. When homie says MTV crowd he’s talking about that official money. MTV2 is for the underdogs and local artists. Gucci and Waka Flocka are still not national. They will forever remain in a box. They will never have World Tours like Emenim or Jay-Z. Please get real and find out the music industry before you speak on it. You’re speaking from a fans perspective, I’m speaking from a business perspective
I was with you up until “Gucci and Waka Flocka” arent national…That was a pretty uninformed statement. Then you follow it up with “They will never have World Tours like Emenim or Jay-Z” … World Tours = international if im not mistaken. Make up your mind. Not many artist in ANY genre will have that type of notoriety in their careers. Luda doesnt headline “world tours” like Jay or Em either. Is he not national???
Gucci will get mobbed in damn near any suburb in this country and its video documented. That nigga is very “national”. Anybody on 4 top 50 POP Billboard songs out at the same time like he was b4 he got locked up (2 of his own and featured on 2) is national.
I really wish you niggaz with no real music business background would just be fans and enjoy the damn video or song and stop with the “what they need to do is…” commentary.
Fact is there are only a few niggaz from Chi that have made any real national hip hop buzz in the popular market so what that says is that artist from here dont make what most people wanna hear YET or that our time (style wise) has passed and the artist from here must re-invent themselves.
Stop Monday or Tuesday morning quarterbackin and support what you like and spread the word as a FAN!!! If LEP never goes “national” will that affect if your kids go to college or some shit. NO! So dont worry so much about the shit!
BTW. The video was hot fellas !!!!
^You fuckin crazy if you think Gucci and Wacka on Eminem and Jay Z level! Gucci is NOT NATIONAL. That shows how dumb you are. You are probably a street nigga that don’t know the market. White people don’t give 2 fucks bout no Gucci or Wacka. Ask any white person walking down the street on Michigan ave who Gucci is and they wont know. Now ask do they know who Jay Z or Snoop is and I bet they know. LEP is in the category with Gucci and ’em. If they do make, which I doubt since they are 30plus. Secondly, whether they don’t go national or not doesn’t effect your kids either and you commenting too clown so shut yo ass up. I’m commenting for the same reason you are because I’m a fan of music and this a blog dumb ass. This the spot where you can share your opinion.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
White kids definitely know who Gucci is you dumb fuck! Gettin that much play is the only way you can have 4 joints on Billboard POP charts at one time you dumb ass clown. Im far from a street nigga thats why i try to refrain from elementary name callin but i see thats the only shit dumb niggaz like you understand. “So I add a MuthaFucka So You ignant Niggaz hear me” – Lauren Hill.
If yo dumb ass could read you’d see i never said they were like Jay or Em. I said those cats were “INTERNATIONAL”! Gucci is def national for many reason. The main reason is because he kills on Pop AND Rhythmic radio station spins. Go check nielson ratings cuz thats is how rec execs judge what category to put you in. If you even know what that is. Second giving your opinion on the post at hand is what this shit is for not going off on a irrelevant ass tangent as to what business moves they should be making when in fact you have know fucking clue what they do when they go in meetings or when they leave the studio.
My point is stay on the topic of the post which is a music video and get off that bitch shit tellin a nigga what he should be doing when you are not in their circle.
^^^^^^^Thank u!!!! Finally someone that see things my way. Listen to the music and shut the fuck up. If u dnt like it, thats fine. Jus dnt try to advise somebody on what career moves they should be making. Bozos
chi city your a total fag man. Go find a life bitch nicca. Lep don’t fuck with homosexual niccas like you. STay off they post because you a lil suspect. You on they dicks to hard its not natural. Thanks for the support but no thanks
^^^^^whatever homie, I’ma keep sayin what i have to say and it ain’t nothing u or the rest of ya’ll clowns can do about it, now, u can call me gay or fag or homo I dnt care dude. But I dare any of u pussy come on halsted talkin that nonsense, i promise i’ma get in that ass…no homo
I gotta keep my shotty on me, cuz these fsd yags be on some bullshit
Hahaha @ChiCitycoldCity go find a job stop internet banging you ol snitch nigga. And I see you get called Yag all the time on here so stop tryna put your name off on other. You the Joke of FSD. You cornball ass fag. You ain’t gon do shit but keep talking shit from yo grandma dial up internet.
P.S. LEP still weak as hell and E gon be mad as hell he wasted that million on them.
LEP WIL —–NEVER—– BE NATIONAL OR INTERNATIONAL. A MIXTAPE FULL OF THROWAWAY BEATS, MEDIOCRE LYRICS, SONGS WITH NO CREATIVITY AND THE SAME OL TOPICS WON’T BE GETTING THEM FAR AT ALL. THEY CAN PAY OFF BLOGS, SITES, DJS, PROMOTERS AND EVERYBODY IN THE GAME AND THAT STILL WON’T GET THEM KNOWN. AFTER THE RELEASE OF DFTK3 IT WILL BE THE SAME STORY. IT WILL FADE AWAY AND 2 YEARS FROM NOW THEY WILL BE DOING IT ALL OVER AGAIN. YOU SAME BLOGGERS WILL BE SAYING THE SAME SHIT “LEP GOING TO MAKE IT ON DFTK 6. THATS THE ONE GOING TO GET THEM KNOWN NATIONALLY” NIGGA PLEASE. THE INDUSTRY DON’ WANT NO 40 YEAR OLD NIGGAS THATS NOT SAYING SHIT SPECIAL ON THE BEAT.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Bet you wake up, eat, shit and shower in hate. The fact that yall mention E and what he does with his money just shows hate. All that shit is so personal cuz nobody knows who or what E does but you local ass hate’n ass rappers/dj’s. Hahahahahahaha….So yall opinion doesnt matter anyway cuz yall cant just be fans of music. Cuz if LEP was so garbage you wouldnt even take the time to click a video or song.
Its plenty of artists i dont care for and I NEVER click on nothing they post cuz i dont like what they do and dont have the time to waste. But you niggaz livin in ya moms basement obviously have nothin to do with ya lives.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
@JB even if u right my nigga the industry is full of niggaz that look 30 plus saying nothin’ on plenty of trash ass beats.
So you should really think about shit before you type shit about the “industry”.
Why am i the butt of all the jokes on this blog?It started with my Chicago WhiteSox jacket. Everybody had something to say about that. It was pretty funny too, i can’t even stunt. Now i’m a fag becuz i post on most of LEP content. But its whatever, so go ahead and say whatever u wanna say, shout out to Marvo. That song was hot.
im from cali and weve been supporting L.E.P. for a couple years now, street money really hit with ppl. there are very few and far inbetween atrist/groups that can put out music like this and not be deemed as fake or questioned of their street cred…theres something about these dudes that u you can just tell they are legit…L.E.P. is a perfect combination of watching the wire with hearing N.W.A. str8 outta compton in 89…
@ Stones. The 30 something niggas in the game thats not speaking on shit is niggas that came in the rap game a while back and grew up in it or niggas that been known for 10 plus years. Lep is trying to break into the game at 30 plus without talent. That shit not going to happen. The best they gon do is Koch or some similar shit and then they going sit on the label.
@ Stones. Also, we click on the garbage niggas posts to give them a chance dumb ass. Just because most all the shit they make is garbage don’t mean they may not try to change it up and come up with something good every once in a while. Even a broken clock is right at least twice a day fuck face. This just not one of those times. This the same bullshit they always talk about. And by the way. Stop commenting under different names retard
Fuck outta here chicitycoldcity. Winter coming back around. Go get you a better coat this year. Anybody rockin’ beauty supply jackets not allowed to comment on this website. Especially flaming fags that cry because other men don’t like lep songs. You’ve been banned
1. Stop trying to indirectly promote that weak ass clothingline on this blog. We fuck with Leaders round these parts so we don’t give a fuck what you speaking on
2. You don’t represent Cali as a whole. Keep it real, you and yo business partners like L.E.P because they agreed to wear some of your t-shirts and rock em in the Chi.
3. Fuck yo opinion.. Did you really just compare them to the wire??? What a fool! How dare you compare a classic to these half illiterate niggas. Thats blasphemy.
@Vell Get yo dumb no life havin ass outta here. You gay ass niggaz dont talk about the fuckin post you talk about all type of shit that aint got shit to do with music. Its only 3 of you fag niggaz that stalk everything they put out like some mad groupie hoes that dont nobody wanna fuck so yall shit on niggaz names. Like the bitch ass niggaz you are. Im just talkin to the no life fag boys like Vell wit nothing else better to do than jock other grown men. Nobody goes from garbage to dope on any damn blog site.
So if yo dumb ass aint got it by now these niggaz are gonna do gangsta shit til they quit. If you waiting for something else you are dumber than you type nigga!
^They ain’t neva getting on. Matta fact this probably Moonie on here. Everybody knows you stalk your own posts goof ass. Shut yo stupid ass up. And aint that the pot calling the kettle black because your ass on here commenting just as much so that means you must not have nothing better to do either if thats the case slow ass nigga.
So hopefully you got the point now clown. Lep is weak sauce and you are too. Ol’ hiding behind ‘stones’ as nigga. Use yo real name. You not even affiliated with Stones so stop false flagging on blogs bitch nigga.
Now back to the truth. Lep old ass ain’t getting signed to shit. They not a good investment. They to old and don’t have shit to say. At least if you not gone say shit you can put it in a dope way but these drop outs can’ even do that. Moonie need to go back to jail or school or work. Dumb fucks
Good Shit!!!!
