There’s more than one rapper called V.I.C. We’re talking about the one from England, who has shared a new mixtape called ‘VÄRIANT’, which is sounding pretty great on our first listen. There’s echoes of trap in there, as well as UK drill, afrobeat swagger, and a load more too. You’ll hear it when you press
