The Name Is SHIMMY CHOO, And His Movement Is #3COMMA .

Raised on the South Side of Chicago, Vic rose to public awareness as a member of the eclectic hip-hop band Kids These Days and founder of the Chicago collective SAVEMONEY alongside Chance The Rapper and other local upstarts Joey Purp and Peter CottonTale. His solo debut mixtape INNANETAPE dropped in 2013, igniting immediate accolades (including a spot on the XXL Freshman cover in 2014), and a fortuitous introduction to Jay Z that led to a record deal with Roc Nation. Mensa went on to help Kanye West pen his esoteric song “Wolves” from The Life of Pablo, drop three critically acclaimed EPs (2016’s There’s A Lot Going On, 2018’s Hooligans, and 2020’s V TAPE) and his debut full length The Autobiography (2017), as well as furthering social causes in his hometown through his nonprofit SAVEMONEYSAVELIFE. In both music and his social activism, Vic challenges the American system responsible for a history of overcriminalization, racial injustice, and issues that affect the lives of people in underserved communities, while showcasing profound levels of consciousness and self-reflection.

Electronic musician Robert Feltman first studied electronic music composition in 1971 while a music student at the Stony Brook University Electronic Music Studio (with Yale's Bülent Arel). The Studio boasted a Buchla 200 modular synthesizer along with an array of reel to reel tape recorders. Those were the days of the avant garde usage of electronic synthesizers and aside from "Switched on Bach" and usage by Keith Emerson the modular synth was yet to attain accepted usage in popular music outside that of novelty. Feltman later studied classical composition, conducting, renaissance recorder, flamenco guitar and many other musics and musical forms. His new album, "Through The Static", will be released in late September of 2015.
