1. What’s the meaning behind your name?
My name is Victor Spencer. It’s 2 first names, which is cool. My name sound like a iconic athlete. But Vic Spencer sounds like a elite MC name. Victor means ‘the winner’, so I’m going full fledge with that meaning.
2. What other names have you had?
Most of my friends call me V.I (like T.I) because it’s a few known Victors’ in the City of Chicago. My name in the neighborhood is Sheezy, still til this day don’t understand where that nickname came from, but it had something to do with smiling a lot and looking like money all the time.
3. Which song of yours would you first want people to hear?
If it was one song I would want people to hear first it would have to be Clothes-Line Bahs. It’s so profound.
4. Who was your Hip Hop idol growing up?
I watched Redman when I was a kid. Everything he did musically seemed like he wanted to do it. It wasn’t forced. That attitude is now instilled in me musically.
5. Which musician would you most like to work with?
I want to work with Sean Price. Me & him is lyrically cut from the same cloth. I believe I’m about to make it happen. I actually spoke to P over the phone the other day and he agreed to jump on something for my upcoming album. He was a artist I bumped hard in High School so I’m honored to work towards music goals.
6. If you weren’t making music, what would you be doing instead?
I would be doing overtime at my job, being a youth advocate. Mentoring youth in the rough neighborhoods of my city is needed badly. I also would consider being a A&R for some artists I believe in too.
7. What’s success to you?
Success is a visiting drug. One day you got it, the next day you don’t. So it’s just something that make you feel like once you got it, you got to do any and everything to keep it because it can leave out your back door and into someone else’s lap.
8. Which country produces the best food and women?
I haven’t been out my country yet so I will have to say USA. Women too.
9. What’s your vice?
I believe my vice is my behavior via social sites. I have to realize that the world don’t think like me so I have to be careful what I say because it can get taken out of context. My vice could remove people away from me when I’m not even doing harm in my eyes. I got to be more careful.
10. What’s your favorite animal?
I like dogs. The true protectors.
