INNANETAPE



Vic Mensa, this Chicago native started out in an indie band called 'Kids These Days' which spilt up just this last May of 2013. Vic is now part of the Save Money crew, dropping his debut mixtape INNANETAPE 9.30.13. INNANETAPE having an amazing collaboration of many notable Chicago rappers such as Chance The Rapper (a close friend of Vic's), Rockie Fresh, and BJ the Chicago Kid. With features from other astonishing artists like Ab-Soul and Eliza Doolittle. This is the first of Vic's work that we have heard, besides the track 'Coco Butter Kisses' from Chance The Rapper's mix tape/album 'Acid Rap'. It is obvious that they share some of the same rapping characteristics, they use this to their advantage on the track 'Tweakin' ' (Ft. Chance The Rapper) Where both Vic and Chance mix and match random metaphors and tongue tying phrase that seem to mesh perfectly when delivered with their Chicago slang. Micheal Uzowuru Produced this track with an odd but feelable composition of synth cords underlying a looped synth riff with sporadic pauses of relaxing background sounds. Can't wait for more work from Mensa, INNANETAPE is a must have in our collection.
