Hov took to his Twitter handle earlier and revealed that Chicago upstart Vic Mensa, has officially inked a deal with Roc Nation. Listen to Vic’s new single with Kanye “U Mad” here.
UPDATE:
Afterwards, he visited L.A.’s Power 106 to explain how the deal came about, meeting Jay Z and displayed his Roc tattoo. Vic also discussed working with Kanye, performing at Coachella, recalled running through Obama’s backyard running from police and announced his next project, Traffic.
Big Free Agent signing. Roc Nation = Quality over quantity.
powerful move.
damn, u cant hate on that
Nice move for my city. Mensa got a crazy brand of music so this platform can have him in position to take OFF.
His album will come out right after Jay Elec album which is never.
you’re wrong, jay elec album hasnt dropped because he doesnt want it to, with jcole dropping theres no way vic cant, try again
Kanye gets a new Kid cudi knock off every 2 years
You’re wildin. Have you heard Innatetape??? Vic Mensa can outrap most of the new class. AND Kanye. Re-listen to “Chain Smoker” and listen to Vic body Twista and Chance the Rapper. That nigga’s nice.
AND he can sing. On the low, he’s got a higher ceiling than Cole.
Lets let the music talk…then we ALL shall see.

Then check his last mixtape
Meh
You also didn’t think Chance the Rapper was talented so your track record on young original Chicago MCs is questionable at best.
Innanetape is that shit.
I’m cool, I don’t buy in…I’m sure he has talent…something’s not connecting though. So like I said, we’ll see. He will now have a platform to do what I guess you already know.

THANK YOU THESE NINJAS DON’T GET IT LOL VIC IS THE FUTURE
Yo let’s talk about tidal.hahaha what a joke
I like how Jay linked to iTunes.
ZING!
THE IRONY OF WHAT JAY’S SWEATSHIRT SAYS!!!! HA!!!! FUCK OUTTA HERE!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
This kid got a Rocafella tattoo on his neck? LMAO! What an idiot! He already failed miserably!
……….HA!!!! *FACEPALM*
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
LMAO! Not to mention that the shit is off centered AF! Lol, he better run back to that tattoo artist and demand a refund! He’s going to have to cover that shit up with an indy label in less than a year once his album flops and Roc Nation drops him.
Shout out to your mom for homeschooling you, that bitch didn’t teach you a god damn thing she left you illiterate in this world
Dear Mr. Uncle Tom,
Please enjoy this ginormous bag of dicks compliments of YOUR bitch mother!
Yours Truly,
Guest
the first time i agree with u.
AND HOPEFULLY IT’S THE LAST!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
What does the shirt say
I’m glad to see you don’t get butthurt like your counterpart Vlad. Make a comment that gets under his skin and he blocks you wit the bitchness..lol Stay real Bdot
If we talking money then talk mo bucks
If hip hop was the NBA Vic Mensa would be the top pick in the draft.
Mark my words. He’s the next young MC to blow up. He’s got a unique style, can rap his ass off, produces, and sings, and he’s a pretty boy so the bitches will love him on some Drizzy shit, but he aint all emo.
The nigga just need to dye his hair back to black. That blonde shit makes him look like a Chris Brown clone. Seems like a lame play for attention…other than that though he on track.
he’s a lot fucking better than his brother…
now watch RR jump on his dick smh
wtf does vic got to get signed to Roc Nation. the guy has literally ZERO achievements since his career in music started. Congrats to Vic though. took home a big W.
Hov lookin young fo his age man
HOW THE FUCK DID JAY THINK THAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA？ THIS NIGGA IS TOO SOFT！
SINCERELY YOURS – ZEUS MOLECULES！
Chiraq!
“Wimme Nah” and “Down On My Luck” are dope records but I’m still a bit skeptical. “U Mad” is unlistenable imo
Congrats to Vic Mensa diggin this kids music and sound but you take a huge L for that dumb ass tattoo in one of the worst places for a tattoo to age at. By age 60 the letters will look like they’re falling off his skin from the saggyness of his old neck skin
Good Signing … I just wonder if vic can actually be bigger than what he already is
Is he a superstar? or another blog rapper
This fool and his goof bumbuddy chance are fukin awful
