A video of homeless man Joseph "So Low Red Line" Lane delivering a heartfelt freestyle on an underground CTA platform in Chicago has racked up over 2 million views in less than 48 hours, leading to interviews on Fox News and a potential record deal.
Fellow musician passer-by Cordell "Co-Still" Hunter shot a video of the man at Jackson station and posted it on Facebook alongside the caption "Homeless man on subway!!!!!!! If he calls me tomorrow im signing him."
Pacing the platform, Lane spits: "Tired of being broke and being poor, rapping and wanting more, standing down in here in the subway when I should be on tour.
"Living in Englewood when I should stay by Lake Shore, every day I be fighting and I don't know what it's for."
