The 15-track album features guest appearances from Pharrell, The-Dream, Weezer, Ty Dolla $ign and more.

During a recent listening party for the album, Vic received high praise from JAY-Z.

“Vic is a very special guy,” Jay said. “Vic is a very special talent; sing well, rap well… he’s an incredible artist, a once-in-a-lifetime artist.”
