Fresh from the Windy City is a movement that empathizes with the realities of the oppressed. One of the realest squads manifested as Manic Depression formed by Know Money, Skitso, and Mr. Sic Sac a.k.a. Mr. Chicago in 1996. Manic has since then come up with numerous mix-tapes and individual projects as well as headlined at several performances. In December of 2006, Manic decided to encapture some of their expericences through songs with the album \"The Great Depression\" as a way of voicing out alot of hardships being viewed in the various hoods across America of which most inhabitants are minorities. The over all sweetness of the album is Manic's ability to diversify the kind of music that appeals to various audiences and age categories. You must take a full ride to understand the entirety of the MDC experience. Manic is here for something epic so please lean back and ride through the Chi with us. MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANIC!
