I’m not sure how many of you have been keeping up with VICE’s weekly show on HBO. On the low, they’ve producing some really good and eye opening programming on everything from the “new cocaine” to the lost Mormon boys. Tonight, they take a ride through the streets of Chicago. Not the nice side either, Vice goes straight to Chiraq tonight. Recently, hip-hop has been giving the rest of the world a real look at the violence epidmenic that’s been plaguing the Chi streets for years now, but VICE set out to give you some of the stories that haven’t made it onto MP3s. It airs at 11pm ET.
Watch the preview clip after the jump…
