Baller-turned-rapper AJ Francis is making a return to his DMV roots.

Francis spent four years as a defensive lineman on Maryland’s football team from 2009 to 2012, recording 149 tackles. He’s still making hits, but not on the football field. He now raps under the name FRAN¢. In fact, he has an album available to purchase on iTunes.

With any good album comes good music videos, and Francis posted a preview of one of his videos on his Instagram account. You, a well-versed UMD student, might recognize the locations.
