Why do we like this?

Vic Mensa's long-awaited collaboration with fellow Chicago native Kanye West is finally here, and to paraphrase Tom Haverford, "it's a banger."

Having teased this one for weeks, Mensa delivers on all angles. The West-influenced production is heavy on booming horns and Yeezus-like synths, and of course there's plenty of auto-tune to go around.

Mensa's in top form lyrically, letting everyone know it's his time, while West's happy to boast, "I feel like MJ, I'm in his shoes." Classic Kanye. 

If this is what we can expect from Mensa's much-hyped debut set for release later this year, then I am well and truly on board.
