It was nine months ago when Chicago was introduced to Chris Spencer (Chris Crack x Vic Spencer), a combination of battle raps and cynical lyricism. The mixtape, Who The Fuck is Chris Spencer?, spoke about the state Chicago's hip hop and showed fans why they're similar to a new age Redman & Method Man duo.

Since then, Vic Spencer’s solo work has not skipped a beat. In the last six months we have heard Vic on a bunch of features and a few singles to hold us over until his upcoming EP, St. Gregory. 

Produced by TeV95, "Platinum Planets" gives us a quick peek into what to expect from his upcoming EP. The track features an experimental, down tempo beat with dark undertones that compliment Vic’s laid back flow. "Platinum Planets" is jam packed with classic Vic Spencer history, jokes, and narrative.

Want more? Be sure to catch Vic Spencer with Ezekiel tha Prophet and Birdzoo tonight at the Red Line Tap and be on the lookout for St. Gregory soon.
