Fresh off taking fans down memory lane with ’93 TO ’23: VICTOR, Vic Mensa is back at the DopeHouse with his new single, “Eastside Girl” featuring Ty Dolla $ign.
Back in his “Down On My Luck” house music bag, Vic reunites with Ty$ – following previous collaborations like “We Could Be Free” and “In Some Trouble” – to float over some jackin baseline and UK garage style vocal samples.
“Ty is one of my favorite musicians and people to collaborate with,” Vic says. “I pulled up to his studio to give him some of my weed brand (93BOYZ) and he was working on a bunch of House music. I’ve been wanting to return to House ever since I made ‘Down On My Luck’ so it just made a lot of sense. Ty had played the guitar line already and it was giving me a surf-rock vibe so I started going a California direction with the lyrics then I programmed some House drums and samples. We were really just smoking and vibing and ‘Eastside Girl’ is what came out.”
Check it out below and be on the lookout for Vic Mensa’s upcoming album, VICTOR. A release date will be revealed soon.
