Is Chet Hanks serious? After receiving a ton of bad press for his rap usage of the N-word, despite being white, Tom Hanks’ son, and therefore having zero street cred, Chet Hanks has now called out SAVEMONEY rapper Vic Mensa. After Vic (rightfully) called Chet Hanks a clown on Instagram, soon after Chet defended his N-word usage (citing freedom of speech), Chet accused Vic of being salty over an alleged encounter at a Beverly Hills party. In reply to Vic’s comment on Instagram, Chet wrote:
“I already knew u was a hater when I saw u at that house party in Beverly Hills but u was mad salty towards me cuz the girl you was with was feeling me and giving me her attention… I remember u taking her ass I’m a corner all heated and shit. U ain’t built like me lil boy, hahahhhhh. Don’t act like u don’t remember!!”
This will probably not end well, but it will be interesting to see if Vic responds. Check out screenshots of the Instagram posts (courtesy of VLAD TV) below.

Roc Nation’s newest member, Chicago’s Vic Mensa, made a stop at Sway In The Morning during his recent visit to New York. Sway asked Vic about a number of topics (and there has been a lot to talk about lately) and of course he had to get Vic on the mic as well to spit a little bit!
Watch Vic’s full interview and freestyle with Sway below.

Apparently Vic Mensa isn’t a fan of rapper Kevin Abstract, or at the very least he doesn’t think that Kevin Abstract has the hottest page on Soundcloud right now. Last night Vic posed a question on Twitter, “hottest page on Soundcloud?” When one follower replied, saying that Kevin Abstract has the hottest Soundcloud, Vic replied with a big “No”.
When Abstract caught word that Roc Nation‘s newest artist wasn’t a fan, he laughed at Vic’s reply with a tweet of his own. Abstract also compared Vic to a young Chance The Rapper, a comparison that Vic likely hears way too often. Next (perhaps as a subtweet aimed Abstract’s way) Vic posted a picture of his BMW (which has since been deleted), prompting Kevin Abstract to tweet a hilarious response. “Vic mensa just subtweeted me and flexed his bimmer. im currently broke af in my bedroom watching mean girls.”
We are a big fan of both artists but we have to give the “W” to Kevin, unless Vic posts a picture of himself watching Mean Girls in his bimmer, in which case the win goes to Vic.
Check out Kevin Abstract’s tweets and compare both the rappers’ Soundclouds below.

While we have known about the signing for awhile, Jay-Z made the official announcement that Chicago’s own, Vic Mensa, is the newest member of Roc Nation Records. Perhaps the most interesting part about the deal is the story behind the signing, which dates back from over a year ago. Jay-Z’s right-hand-man at Roc Nation, executive Lenny Santiago, shared an awesome story about how he first pursued and eventually signed Vic Mensa.
As Santiago shares, while Vic Mensa’s “I don’t care which label you’re from” attitude almost stopped a deal from taking place, it was Mensa’s love for the music and culture that made the partnership happen.
Check out the full story below!
