ORANGESODE_vicmensa

Vic’s solo single, “Orange Soda,” is easily one of my favorite songs of the year, and quite possibly my favorite Vic Mensa song ever. I know you’ve heard me say it before, but sometimes you just have to reinforce these things.

Well, so far we’ve gotten a tagged version of the record, and a video. But no CDQ mp3. But you already know FSD has you covered, and today we bring to you the version you’ll want to download for posterity purposes. Thank us later.
