We’re finally at that point in our relationship with Wiki that he’s starting to let us in. Where in Ratking, he and Hak bewitched us with visceral depictions of graffiti and skateboarding life from Harlem to Coney, now he’s solo and waxing philosophic. In No Mountains in Manhattan, Wiki tells us how he really feels about everything from publicists to systemic racism. He’s never preachy, and his flow is that perfect meld of NYC street style and afro-futurism. The premier video “Mayor” shows him campaigning the streets dispersing “WIKI for Mayor” stickers while he asserts his indelible connection to his NYC fam. Whether he wins against the incumbent or not, he certainly reigns supreme over the world he creates for us with his expert rhymes.
