Vic Mensa’s new album is finally complete.
After dropping There’s A Lot Going On in the summer of last year, Vic took the backseat for a minute but it sounds like he’s about to make his return.
Earlier this week Andrew Barber of FakeShoreDrive sat down with Vic to listen to what he described as Vic’s “best work to date.” According to Barber, the project is set to feature the likes of Pharrell, Chief Keef, Joey Purp & more.
As far as when we can expect the album, Andrew gave one word for us to speculate on, “summer.”

It’s Vic’s BEST work to date. Better than INNANETAPE. It’s an open book & he even brings that old Roc sound back. No ID is the exec producer

Easy contender for album of the year. Pharrell, Chief Keef, Rivers Cuomo, Joey Purp, The-Dream.
Will write more in-depth soon.
Summer.
