“ Lucifer be callin’ - I be haulin ass from him and that nigga steady callin, and that nigga don’t take lunch!” - Tree on “Lucifer Callin'”

In 2017, Chicago natives and respected hip hop veterans, Tree and Vic Spencer, collabed for a joint project - VicTree EP. Both had already built impressive libraries individually.  

Tree, the acclaimed progenitor of “soultrap” - his unique blend of old and new Black sounds - returned from a five year hiatus for the project. Vic Spencer, whose bars and flow carry the force of late 90s/2000s hip hop at its best, had released two much-loved projects the year before - The Ghost of Living and Who the Fuck is Chris Spencer.

On Nothing IS Something, the two come together, once more, to deliver an album packed with some of their best bars to date. Pay special attention to “Lucifer Callin” and “Cognac and Beer”.

Their latest work displays the pair’s versatility and lyrical depth. Over the album, Tree and Vic provide ten consecutive bar-heavy, introspective, and exactic hip hop tracks. Sometimes playful, sometimes hard-hitting and precise, the duo master each unique vibe. Throughout,  though the album’s sound is very current, there's more than a note of reminiscent hip hip for Chicago rap purists.
