We first brought you the fascinating guy of RVA that goes by the name MC Chicken last month when he came out with this ode to the James River, “

River Rat.”

Now we may have thought that was just a greasy flash in the pan, but the emcee is back with a new video and it is still all about the party…And the chicken. He’s ramped things up with “You Got MC Chicken Fucked Up.”

He’s raging out in this one in a big house party in a top hat and tank top.

In a recent interview, MC Chicken, aka Macon Mann filled us in on his latest project.

“The Dirty Chicken ain’t playin now,” said Mann. “Once the River Rat video got big and there was a lot of controversy going around, my main man Stayl_O Escobar (that’s his birth name) said to me, ‘MC Chicken, man, you got to do a song for your haters to let em’ know they got you fucked up.’ So i did. My man DJ Gringo, who mixed the last song, started wildin’ out on this beat.”

He finished up the rollercoaster ride of a video about three weeks ago with the help of DJ Gringo and Dustin Bloodgood who directed the video.

For all the MC Chicken fans and lovers out there, the local artist will drop his first mixtape The #Scraw Scrolls on Halloween so check back for a review on that.

“It’s gonna be a greasy hot mess,” he said.

MC Chicken and the Nuggets have a show coming up performing December 10th at the Camel along side Ohbliv, Tennison, and Sound Genesis so if you want to get a little fucked up with the man known as Mc Chicken, then I suggest you go check that out.
