On : 2010 Apr 04

"Granite State of Mind" - a spoof video of Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" has become an YouTube hit, generating more than half a million views since it was posted on Wednesday.

New Hampshire filmmaker and occasional rapper Christian Wisecarver's Granite State of Mind swaps lyrics about New York to lines about New Hampshire.

The original chorus is, "New York!!!!/Concrete jungle where dreams are made of/There's nothing you can't do/Now you're in New York!!!/These streets will make you feel brand new/the lights will inspire you/Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York..."

Wisecarver turns it into, "New Hampshire!!!/Land where there's no income or sales tax/There's nothing much to do/Here in New Hampshire/These trees where leaf peepers drive to/maple syrup is pro-duced/This is New Hampshire, Hampshire, Hampshire..."

Christian Wisecarver is the writer, director and star of 2003's "The Red Brick Road."
