  "account": "Grammy-nominated artist Vic Mensa is set to embark on an intimate four-city tour in celebration of his debut mixtape, Innanetape. The tour will commence on October 12 in London, followed by performances in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York. Innanetape will be available on streaming platforms for the first time on September 30, ahead of the tour.\n\nMensa, formerly the frontman of Kids These Days, began crafting Innanetape at the age of 19. The mixtape's fusion of hip-hop, jazz, soul, electronic influences, and live instrumentation caught the attention of numerous collaborators, including Chance The Rapper, Ab-Soul, BJ The Chicago Kid, Rockie Fresh, Thundercat, and Jesse Boykins III. The production credits include Boi-1da, Hit-Boy, DJ Dahi, and Michael Uzowuru.\n\nTo mark the occasion, Mensa will launch a dedicated digital archive, which will include new merchandise, tour updates, exclusive content, and special releases related to Innanetape's release. In addition to his music career, Mensa has ventured into acting, with appearances on The Chi and Bel-Air. As the founder of 93 Boyz, an Illinois-based Black-owned cannabis brand, he also hosts the Webby-winning Orange Tree Series on Instagram.\n\nThe tour dates for Innanetape are as follows: October 12 in London at the Village Underground, October 24 in Los Angeles at Blue Note, October 28 in Chicago at Garcia's, and November 10 in New York at Blue Note.",
