Hardcore street rapper, and Umbrella Music Group's resident battle rapper Yo-Dot just released a new music video for his song "Problems" (produced by Lex Luthor, winner of the 2010 Miltown Beat Down) which can be found on his new free EP, "The Shorecrest Memoirs."

The video, directed by Stan Perry, is set in Chicago instead of Milwaukee, and is edited quite well which keeps the visuals fresh for the viewer. The song itself is the standard Yo-Dot venom based braggadocio type of track that so many that are Yo-Dot fans have come to expect from him.

After watching the video, you can download the free EP here.
