Who the Fuck Is Chris Spencer?? is a collaboration between underground Chicago rappers Vic Spencer and Chris Crack. It's a concept album that seems less concerned with its concept—Chris $pencer is ostensibly a fictionalized fusion of the two MCs—than in world-building, in craft, and devotion to an acerbic, pointed sensibility. This is lyrical rap which reclaims the word "lyrical," so it is reborn as a synonym for freedom, where verses operate by their own volatile logic.
