V.I The Boss Host Listening Session For Upcoming Project In Chicago

Gearing up for the official release of his upcoming album Half & Half, V.I The Boss hosted a private listening session last night in his hometown, Chicago. The exclusive event took place at a recording studio on the Northside and it was filled with friends, family, and taste-makers of Chicago's industry.

Throughout the event, V.I played snippets of songs from the Half & Half project, including his new single "Trapline." He also showcased his new video "Live It Up," which was shot in a multi-million mansion in the hills of Arizona. The album drops this Summer and his first single is expected in May.

Meanwhile, V.I is scheduled to hit the internet with his new mixtape Barksdale later this Spring. Until then, check out exclusive pictures from last night's event after the jump.
