In our new series Earlier That Day, we ride around with our favorite artists in the hours, minutes, and seconds before they take the stage at shows we can't wait to watch. When Vince Staples brought his Long Beach menace to the East Coast for his first headlining show in New York City, we met up with him to plot on millions in the back of a cab, scoop some knowledge from his manager Corey Smyth, and dap up MTV's Donnell Rawlings. "I just got my drivers license three weeks ago," Vince told us, but it was still tight to ride shotgun. His Hell Can Wait EP is all burly bars, and you should go listen to it right after subscribing to The FADER on YouTube.
