DH Next Up Spices up the Nola Holiday with his #DearSantaChallenge on Instagram

DEAR SANTA,

Safe to say, music is a true craft when an artist can’t resist mixing in some holiday bars with a nice Christmas beat. Which is exactly what New Orleans Rap Artist DH Next Up has just done.

Via Instagram, DH set the holiday mood by posting his video challenge. In addition to the holiday-toned bars, he set the standard of the challenge by shooting the video in front of the Fulton Street Christmas Light tree. The video is directed by Quincy Scott.

Check out DH’s run on his own #DearSantaChallenge below.

DEAR SANTA,
I want the rolls royce phantom and a lear santa
Yeah santa
Get me a 40 too i aint talkin no beer santa
This just my wishlist
I want niggaz to stop doing bitch shit
I want a thick bitch
And head from shorty right there with the big lips
Can I get a movie role
I want you to help the saints win a superbowl
I want a new studio
And the plug to drop the price down stupid low
Can you free my fed homies
this a bit much can you bring back my dead homies
can i get a gold roley
Can niggaz be real and stop acting so phony
I want like 10 benz so me and my friends
could shut the parking lot
Can you make em all black
cut off the drop
Can you get my charges dropped
Can i get the marble top
in a big crib
Maybe in eastover
Can i have a sleepover
And my girl dont trip if i call me some freaks over
Can i get a record deal
Can be happy and stop being negative
Can my city let us live
Can we work together stop competetive
Can neph reach the nba
Can my followers jump up to 20k
I kno i been santa so if you dont get it ima go grind for it anyway
