This week, Vic Mensa is co-headlining the Black Star Line Festival, and in addition to that, he is spearheading an initiative to supply clean water to three villages in Ghana.
Vic says he was moved after seeing the harsh living conditions in these areas, including the fact that people rely on dirty water.
He collaborated with his father, who was born and raised in Ghana to provide potable drinking water.
The musician, who was born in Chicago, is quoted as saying, “We’re building 3 boreholes in different communities in Ghana to provide clean drinking water; the first being the Asokore Zongo in Koforidua where my family lives, which is already built.”
Vic adds, “The other locations are a nearby community called Effiduase and then our ancestral village in the Volta Region, Amedzofe,” he told TMZ.
Vic is slated to perform with Chance The Rapper, Erykah Badu and more on Saturday January 7, 2023, at the Black Star Line Festival.
