So, in my quest for Vic knowledge, I’ve stumbled across a fair number of people with connections to Vic.

Here’s what I learned yesterday:

-Vic is dropping this month, the date is unknown but expect it sometime soon. Papi Beatz pulled a 20 hour mix session before the label deadline and the tape has been handed in. He cut his Australia yours for a week long recording session.

-It’s not Traffic. The tape will likely be titled “There’s Alot Going On” (intentionally misspelled).

-Traffic is not going to be bangers. The tape will have some bangers (Danger, Vertical, and Gun Shots in The Air were confirmed for the tape), but it’s also got a definite rock influence.

- Traffic to be released later this year, summer/fall.

- Chance, has not one BUT TWO guest spots on Traffic

-A song may have a Ty Dolla Sign feature.

Speculation:

-Basing this on assumptions from everything I’ve heard, Vic’s decision to make a tape is likely for the purpose of artistic growth. Fans were lukewarm to the bangers, and I think he realized an album with a really unrefined style wouldn’t go over well. He split the really experimental tracks on to a tape, and realized he needed more content a la 16 Shots, Shades of Blue.

I’m not going to give away my sources. I can have the people from @genius-moderation vouch for my credibility. I understand this sounds sketch, but this is what I know as of now.
