Vic Mensa is never afraid to try something different, and that’s the case with his latest project. The Chicago rapper is putting hip-hop aside for a moment for his new punk band 93PUNX and its self-titled album.
The 14 track rock project, which is executive produced by Travis Barker, features guest appearances from Tom Morello, Good Charlotte, Francis and the Lights, H.R. (Bad Brains), and Loko Wit Da Mask. It follows up his Vic’s latest project Hooligans.
Vic took to Twitter to share clips of the band performing tracks like “Goodbye 2 Heartbreak” “United States of Evil” and “Numb.”
