INNANET Reference: Mixtapes

I was 16 with a mixtape,

Now I’m 19 with a mixtape

Tryna be 21 with a million dollars

Like praise the Lord, hallelujah, holla

This reference appears on “Hollywood LA,” Vic’s ode to his new home. Vic dropped his Straight Up EP in the summer of 2010, when he was just 16 years old. Three years later, he returns to the internet with INNANETAPE.  A lot has changed in those years. On “YSNP” Vic talks about how far he’s come from the small contract labels offered him three years ago:  “Oooooh, lemme talk my shit/ 16 when they tried to give me 35 hundred/ Now them labels back on my dick.” Who knows where he’ll be two years from now.
