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.

Twenty-four-year-old artist, singer, songwriter Ayzha Nyree is bringing a new look and sound to popular hip-hop/R&B. Born in Fredericksburg, Virginia, this charismatic soul queen started her musical journey at age nine, performing in local talent shows and singing covers of powerful female artists like Aaliyah, Alicia Keys, and Whitney Houston. Years of writing, recording, and developing her craft have led her to Los Angeles, where she now calls home with her two brothers.
 
Identifiable through her infections melodies, clever rhythmic cadences, and unique raspy tone, Ayzha describes herself as a cross between Jhene Aiko and Gunna: infusing R&B, rap, and rhythmic elements into her sound.
 
Ayzha’s remix of Chris Brown’s “No Guidance” is her most explosive viral moment to date, starting on Tik Tok but organically crossing all platforms. Her debut single “T.L.C” (to be released in Nov. 2020) will serve as the precursor to a full length project coming in 2021.
 
With all of life’s challenges, Ayzha considers music her sanctuary and continues to inspire others to be the best version of themselves. “I always say music is a universal language, full of vibration and energy” she explains. “I want my music to make people feel happy, confident, and self-aware.”
