Hyde Park, Chicago emcee
Vic Mensa lets us know what he's been up to on his new track "
I Been", produced by
Smoko Ono, and
Mike Dean. Vic lays his bars down over some hard hitting production, showing his versatility on the track.
Victor Mensah has been known to work with some legendary artists such as:
Kanye West on "
U Mad", and "
Wolves", as well as his track "
No Chill" featuring the ever talented producer
Skrillex. In addition, he's also collaborated with the rising star
Chance the Rapper, and was on the 2014 edition of XXL's Freshman Class. With 2 mixtapes under his belt, "
Straight Up", and "
INNANETAPE", as well as an internationally known track entitled "
Down On My Luck", Vic is doing quite well for someone who was just named a freshman.
"I Been" starts off with Vic and his vocals, which serves as an introduction to whats to come. Before long the production courtesy of Smoko Ono and Mike Dean, with additional production by
Carter Lang &
Papi Beatz, brings a hard hitting element to the track at the perfect time. Vic tends to bend words at will, showing different angles of his versatility, combined with his confident lyrics.
Vic is gearing up for his debut album entitled "
Traffic" which is slated for a 2015-2016 release. Since before his signing to
Roc-a-Fella Records, and
Roc Nation, Vic has been on a win streak. One that doesn't seem like it's going to end anytime soon.
