Little Vic Freestyle On StreetFM WUSB 90.1

Here is an exclusive freestyle from Long Island emcee, Little Vic. Although the amount of emcees rhyming to Jay Electronica's "Exhibit C" is ridiculous and needs to stop (please, pick a different beat to rock), Vic definitely owns this instrumental.

Exclusive Interview: Little Vic

Recently, I caught up with Little Vic for quick, interesting interview (at 3 a.m. after a great show on StreetFM WUSB 90.1--surprisingly, we were all coherent enough at 3 a.m. to complete this interview).
