Vic Mensa has his eye on a major role!
Who the Ghanaian entertainer wants to portray?
Prince.
I think I should play Prince in the biopic. Prince is one of my biggest idols of all time, and he’s the real King of Pop. Some people will be mad that I said that.
The star opened up on his deep desire to play the Purple one in an interview with Montreality almost two years after the latter’s untimely death.
The reason why I’d be able to kill the role as Prince is because I got that mouthpiece.Prince was butter smooth with it and I feel like I could do it.
That wasn’t all.
How he feels about the fact that his friends, Jay-Z and Kanye West, are feuding…
I don’t think they like it. That’s the delicate thing about male ego and relationships go through that, all relationships…The real relationships live past it, as I believe Kanye and Hov’s relationship 100 percent has and will.
*Prince side eye* lol
He Said Prince Is The Real King Of Pop….I Love Prince, But Chile ?????????
He’s delusional. Prince was a musical genius. The King Of Pop is short for Popularity. Jackson definitely was the King of Popularity.
Lord Knows I Love Prince but he himself is not the King of Pop, MJ earned that titled by the whole world. HIS IMPACT, ACHIEVEMENTS, LONGTIVITY GOING BACK to the J5 to his solo career speaks for itself. Technically speaking MJ was in the industry long before we knew Whitney, Madonna, Prince, ect til the 80s. So come correct Vic and you playing PRINCE…….Lord goodnight.
Look Vic, if you really want to play you need to call Lifetime because that’s the type of b******* they’ll pull, but we’re NOT going to play MJ and give his title to Prince. You could’ve said you thought Prince was the king of pop in your opinion, nobody really would’ve gave a f*** because you have nothing to back it up beside your personal feelings. Prince is definitely a monumental artist but he took up more of an edgy R&B sound, or “alternative R&B”, not the pop type music MJ used to sell out stadiums on his his first solo tour.
That is his opinion on who is his King of Pop is which i respect and im sure other fans of Prince feels that way…i think he can pull it off Vic is a talented dude.
For the simple fact he said he should play prince because “he has that mouth piece” let’s us know he knows nothing about prince… mouth piece? Yuh.
