Fly S**t (Intro)

Vic Spencer starts September off with his Red Button Series, a weekly release of records during the recording of his 6th solo album, The Rapping Bastard. Vic Spencer was at The Grindhouse with Doc da Mindbenda writing to a new beat for The Rapping Bastard when 197/Village member Monster Mike was recording a record of his own. Vic took a liking to the record he was recording and invited Mike back to the studio the following week to feature on the 1st release to the series which is The Newport 100. The name comes from the historical vehicle sport, The Daytona 500. But since these two MC enjoy smoking Newports, they replaced Daytona with a sport of their own. Packed with 24 bars from each MC on a horn-driven loop provided by Marc Moulin off the Placebo Sessions from 1971-74, the two mesh well crafting lines like 'I'm very gifted, not a Christian so my daddy is Christmas' and 'Never naked, gotta lot of Nudies'. And if that wasn't enough, Vic loops a bass-driven record from Jet Age of Tomorrow entitled Delta off their bonus mixtape, The Jellyfish Mentality to add to the record. "I want to give listeners MORE", Vic said about switching the beat on the record. "In this game, you have to stay creative".

The Rapping Bastard due out mid-October.

#WhatIGetInto (Bonus Track)

It is my greatest hope, that after the conclusion of the Red Button Series, people...especially rappers, finally recognize and give Vic Spencer his credit. This track, G File Clerk, the first release of the October installment of the series continues to solidify Vic as Chicago's top emcee. Jumping out the gate with lines like"I showed my whole ass now say it backwards, asshole shitted out a disaster" and "I burst out with laughter when they think they do it better, read this verse like the shit was a polyphonic letter", all within the first 45 seconds of the record. How many rappers can properly use polyphonic in a rhyme..really? Only a real emcee, a lover of words and writing like Vic Spencer. It's not enough for him to effortlessly kill the non-factors that are considered 'competition', no sir, Vic has to body rappers again and again with sophisticated bahz as he says. G File Clerk is a loop from a Frank Leone record called The Cove and DB3's track Imagination. Starting out on a more mellow note, beat wise of course, Vic goes in, whether the beat is smooth or as rough and gritty as his rhymes. G File Clerk is bar after bar of Vic really just pulling it and asking who wants to get their file pulled next?? 

The Rapping Bastard due out in November.

It is evident that Vic will not stop, still feeding his Old Fart and Rapping Bastard buzz cleverly dropping gems like "I dont fuck with Twitter beef, we can meet up, and I ain't too old to smack the shit out of you and kick my feet up", typical old man statement that just makes you laugh because it's probably true. And no one will ever test Vic Spencer lyrically, literally, or cyber-'ly' to find out if it is or isn't the truth. Be glad Vic has decided to continue the Red Button Series through October, gives rappers a chance to get their wordplay in order and listeners an opportunity to get caught up with the master himself. He's still not finished, every Monday more schooling from a real leader will be handed down, clearly until he's ready to move on to the next piece of his plan for hip hop domination.

Over the past 20 years, Vic Spencer has become one of the most respected figures in underground hip-hop culture as a whole. The Chicago MC keeps his name in the hip-hop headlines with a constant stream of albums, he definitely has dropped 4 to 5 albums a year for the past 5 years and loose tracks whose titles often effectively sum up the snarky, acutely self-aware attitude of his lyrics. Though his reputation has grown thanks in part to his collaborations with the late Sean Price (RuckDown), Flee Lord (LORDMOBB), 38 Spesh (TRUST), and acclaimed "soultrap" rapper/producer Tree, Spencer is a proud free agent with his own label (Old Fart Luggage) who vocally dismisses the noise surrounding his city’s hip-hop landscape and stays committed to—even obsessed with—forging his own path. Vic Spencer is best known for his work with Big Ghost (The Ghost of Living) and his solo album, The Cost of Victory which dropped in 2015 and was rank 19 out of 40 in the Rolling Stone’s top 40 albums of that year. Vic is also working with August Fanon on a continuing series entitled Psychological Cheat Sheet and has a 4 part series with SONNYJIM called Spencer for Higher. Question: What is the result when you mix the wit of Sean Price, the comedic delivery of DOOM, the unorthodox approach of the late ODB, the lungs of B-Real, and the life experience of a group home resident hailing from the streets of Chicago’s gritty East Side? Answer: Vic Spencer aka The Rapping Bastard.
