Following the debut of a new collaboration with Pharrell Williams, Chicago rapper Vic Mensa has announced his next project. Titled The Manuscript, the There’s Alot Going On follow-up is billed as an EP and is set to see a release this Thursday, June 8. The Roc Nation artist revealed the information in a newly-released promotional vignette, which Vic Mensa used to formally introduce The Manuscript. “The Manuscript 6/8. 1 of 2,” reads the trailer’s description and an official tweet, hinting at another project besides the one announced today.

You can check out the trailer for Vic Mensa’s The Manuscript above. Vic Mensa has yet to drop a solo record in 2017; his last major release involved a contribution to fellow Chicago talent KAMI’s “Right Now.”
