Vic Mensa is quickly positioning himself as the future of hip-hop. The 19-year-ol Chicago MC has been all over the country on seemingly every major publication, TV show and website promoting his latest release, Innanetape, which dropped on September 30 to rave reviews . Playing on his technologic-inspired “Innanet” aesthetic, Mensa teamed up with Clams Casino and HP to record a track and accompanying video as part of HP’s 2 Day Beat Project where they teamed up the pair to create the song with ideas for lyrics pulled from Youtube comments. The production value behind the video is out of this world, as Vic seems to physically interact with the verses he’s spitting. Vic’s pointed, sharp-edged lyricism coaxes over the finer things in life, like Egyptian Cotton, in this latest offering.
