Towkio Releases 'Wav Theory Mixtape' Featuring Chance The Rapper, Vic Mensa [LISTEN]

Chicago rapper Towkio has released his full mixtape .Wav Theory after sharing several very well received singles from the project over the past few months. A Chicago affair, the mixtape features a whole host of fellow Windy City artists including Chance The Rapper, fellow SAVEMONEY and new Roc Nation signee Vic Mensa and Donnie Trumpet. It reaches outside of the city for production from Kaytranada and even out of the country for Norwegian Lido on "Heaven Only Knows."

The mixtape shows off an impressive range of different styles. It switches from jazzy, horn-filled arrangements, like "Free Your Mind" featuring Donnie Trumpet to more summery, laidback "Involved" featuring Vic Mensa and production work from Kaytranada.

Towkio shows his flexibility and ability to work around the variety of different beats, switching between singing hooks and rapping with a silky smooth flow. The mixtape has a clear progression as the Chicago MC explores what he can do vocally and sonically.

As Chance the Rapper asks at the end of "Heaven Only Knows," which was released as a single a few weeks ago "why you about to have the hottest mixtape of 2015?"
