Milwaukee news station (and biggest square in Wisconsin) take issue with RVA DJ’s upcoming performance

Richmond rappers Teleport Team have some members heading out to the snowy Northern part of the US for a benefit show at a local community center, and one local news station (and the biggest teenage-square ever) are not too thrilled about it.


Richmond rappers Teleport Team have some members heading out to the snowy Northern part of the US for a benefit show at a local community center, and one local news station (and the biggest teenage-square ever) are not too thrilled about it.

Turns out sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll are not generally accepted in Milwaukee, WI.

Have a look at the local broadcast from WTMJ below:

Oh man, I’ve watched this video like 16 times and it is still funny. I just want the reporter’s reading of the t-shirt logo’s sampled and turned into a beat so bad.

I’m kind of hoping BVillian, who hails from Hollywood but has been touring with Teleport Team’s DJ MIKEALIS, shows up and teaches everyone in town to dance again in some Footloose-like scenario.

MIKEALIS reached out to us via email and said the show was still slated to happen Friday night, and you’ll be able to catch both of them when they come back to RVA in a few weeks.

Check out the video the local station pulled clips from below:
