“Got a lot of dirt up on my name,” he reflects,” over Hit’s claustrophobic production. “I might’ve had a rap beef with the whole game / I’m spraying everything, I don’t really need to aim.” In all honesty, it’s genuinely refreshing to hear Mensa rapping with a chip on his shoulder once again, a reminder that prior to a few controversies he was being steadily praised for his talent on the mic. It seems as if fielding animosity only made him stronger, and if the early reactions to The V Tape are any indication, perhaps we’re looking at the dawn of a new era for Vic Mensa.

Got a lot of dirt up on my name
I might’ve had a rap beef with the whole game
I’m spraying everything, I don’t really need to aim
