Vic Mensa Discusses Justin Timberlake, Racism In New Freestyle

The Chicago rapper goes hard on BBC 1Xtra Radio.

July 16, 2016

Vic Mensa is not messing around and that's been especially clear as of late. Not only has the Chicago rapper taken a major stand on LGBT rights, but he's also been snapping back at those who criticize the #BlackLivesMatter movement and its supporters, including pop star Justin Timberlake, who Mensa accused of "turning a blind eye from black culture when it's dangerous for him."

Now, the 23-year-old has addressed the controversy again, this time in a freestyle on English DJ Semtex's show on BBC 1Xtra Radio. Over three minutes, Mensa touches on everything from Timberlake ("For the record, I ain't got no problem with Justin Timberlake/That’s a media spin don’t believe the shit they say.") to police violence, anti-black sentiment, gun control, and even Skepta's Boy Better Know crew.
