About Vic Mensa and Keyon Christ
Vic Mensa is an American rapper currently signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation. Before starting a solo career, he was a member of the group “Kids These Days.” After the group split, he released his debut solo mixtape “Innanetape,” followed by his debut album “The Autobiography” in 2017. In 2015, Kanye West featured Vic Mensa alongside Sia in his song “Wolves.” He recently released a four-song EP “Vino Valentino” this year.
Keyon Christ, formerly Mitus, is an artist and former producer at Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music. In hip-hop circles, he is known for his work on West’s “FML,” Rihanna’s “Goodnight Gotham” and Lil Yachty’s “No More.”
Together, these artists are using web3 to expand their careers. This is one of the many music drops powered by Zora, which has also worked with Pussy Riot, Disclosure and Toro y Moi, to name but a few.
The platform has undoubtedly become one of the top protocols for artists. This is because it allows them to create their own NFTs independently. Recently, Zora announced the launch of its new NFT API platform, which provides detailed records of more than 42 million NFTs.
