A lot has been happening for the 22-year-old Chicago emcee as of late. For starters Vic Mensa performed with Kanye West on Saturday Night Live, delivering a hook on 'Ye's forthcoming "Wolves" track (set to appear on So Help Me God) followed by some turned up live performances with the man. The live performances were for a track entitled "U Mad," which recently got released as a single. In addition, Mensa also signed with Jay Z's Roc Nation recording label. That's huge. So, yeah, evidently Mensa is doing quite well for himself on the mainstream end right now. Mensa also stopped by to team up with LA Leakers for an exclusive freestyle over Future's anthemic Monster cut "Commas." Check it out after the jump!

With his new album 2014 Forest Hills Drive in stores now (stream it in full here) J. Cole appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman last night (Dec. 10th) to deliver an emotionally-charged performance of his track "Be Free." The song, which Cole released back in August and doesn't appear on his new album, is a tribute to Mike Brown and Eric Garner, two men who were killed in the hands of police. 2014 Forest Hills Drive is expected to sell 320-350k in its first week, but that isn't even on J. Cole's mind at the moment. “Album in stores now. 2014 Forest Hills Drive. No thank you on projections. Just did Letterman, I’ll never forget it. Thank you God,” he tweeted. Check out Cole's performance on Letterman after the jump.
