Wire Fraud Tutorial: North Carolina’s Punchmade Dev goes viral with new Bryce Chill-powered video
US rapper, producer and investor Punchmade Dev is getting all kinds of attention—and possibly not all the kind he may want—from his latest single and video, “Wire Fraud Tutorial.” In the same spirit as Biggie’s “10 Crack Commandments,” Dev’s “Wire Fraud Tutorial” features the North Carolina-native in a school teaching, as you likely expected, how to commit wire fraud, and standing next to ATMs as he offers a play-by-play. Certainly a risky move as it could pique the interest of all sorts of law enforcement agencies, but this isn’t even Dev’s first run at it. And definitely far from the first time that Dev has gotten controversial with his music. In fact, Bloomberg actually included him in https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2022-11-02/rappers-bring-tutorials-for-dark-web-scams-to-spotify-tiktoktheir Oct. 2022 coverage of the hip-hop subgenre, scap rap. “Wire Fraud Tutorial” has been already been viewed over 692K times on YouTube since premiering on July 12. You can find the track on Apple Music, Spotify, and various other digital streaming platforms via Dev’s own Punchmade Records.
