Vic Mensa Unfiltered: Chicago, ICE, Kanye & the Lies We’re Fed

Nobody is using their platform to educate, challenge, and inspire quite like Vic Mensa. From viral orange-tree monologues to fearless conversations about politics, identity, and culture, Vic joins ALL THE SMOKE for one of our most wide-ranging and thought-provoking interviews yet. Vic breaks down how he uses social media as a tool for activism, the realities of Venezuelan immigration in Chicago, and how redlining and systemic violence continue to shape the city. He reflects on growing up biracial, his powerful ayahuasca experience, and the role music plays in influencing today’s youth. We also dive deep into Chicago’s legendary music scene, including unforgettable stories about coming up with Chance The Rapper, being in the room while Kanye West recorded “30 Hours,” and the moment Vic’s own career began to take off. Plus, he talks acting on The Chi, sheds light on today’s activists making a real difference, and shares what it was like filming Still With Smoke entirely on an iPhone in Senegal. This one is equal parts history lesson, cultural deep dive, and raw personal reflection. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vic Mensa Says The Division Between Black Americans And Africans Is Manufactured

In this powerful clip from Market Mondays, Vic Mensa joins Rashad Bilal for a candid discussion that dives deep into identity, unity, and the divisive narratives that have shaped perceptions among Black Americans and Africans. Vic Mensa shares his personal story of being mixed race—his father from Ghana and his mother from America—and addresses the complexities and sensitivities surrounding his background. The conversation shines a spotlight on the manufactured divisions between Black American and Black African communities, which Vic Mensa argues are perpetuated to prevent collective empowerment. He credits Black Americans with creating the most influential culture globally, and points out the economic and population growth on the African continent, emphasizing the transformative potential if both groups unite. Vic Mensa challenges the anti-African narrative often found online and calls attention to similar misunderstandings pushed by some Africans about their Black American counterparts. Together, he and Rashad Bilal unpack the harmful stereotypes spread by media, confronting issues that impact identity, history, and self-worth within both communities. The clip ends with a heartfelt appeal for unity, stressing that true freedom and advancement can only be achieved when Black Americans and Africans come together—recognizing their collective strength and shared heritage. Tune in for an honest conversation that pushes past division and encourages us all toward unity, empowerment, and cultural pride. **Hashtags:** #VicMensa #MarketMondays #BlackUnity #FBA #AfricanDiaspora #BlackCulture #Identity #MediaNarrative #RashadBilal #Ghana #BlackHistory #AfricanEmpowerment #Unity #HiddenColors #Empowerment #CultureClip See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
