poptimists | Is A Punk Rock Shoe So They Get Real Dirty

Video for the Pack's "Vans." Don't know whether to call this "hyphy" or "snap" or what, but this is the catchy, spare novelty hip-hop track, knocking "Wait" and "Play" and all the rest down to has-beens. But what's going on here socially? Ghetto teens wooing skatepunks? Emulating them? Love the dancing, the slides, very friendly. Also makes an intriguing differentiation; Vans are multi-colored, not coke white. (If that's what they're saying.)
