YOU OUGHTA KNOW: JUNG YOUTH

If you’ve been keeping up with the bizarre hijinks of actor-turnedperformance artist Shia LaBeouf, you may have seen a meme featuring two pictures of the Transformers star. In one, he’s wearing a suit on the red carpet. In the other, he’s sporting a dad hat, high-waisted pants, and UGGs. The caption reads: “Get u a man who can do both.” Much like the rogue actor, local rapper (and meme lover) Jung Youth is a versatile dude. Since he burst onto the scene in 2012, the native Kentuckian has had features with everyone from Chancellor Warhol to Cherub. He’s also shared bills with Mike Floss and hip-hop legends Mobb Deep, and if that weren’t enough, he’s got a collaboration with EDM producer (and longtime friend) Super Duper dropping this month. If you’re looking for a man who can spit over dark house, synthpop, and classic boom bap beats with equal intensity, look no further than Jung Youth. # NAT I V ENAS HV I L L E
