New York rapper Wiki has not one but two great new albums out this year, 14K Figaro with producer Tony Seltzer and Faith Is A Rock with MIKE and producer The Alchemist, and he joined us on the new episode of the BrooklynVegan Podcast to talk about both of those albums and much more.
Wiki has been on a roll with projects that feature a single producer–2022’s Cold Cuts with Subjxct 5, and 2021’s Half God with Navy Blue and Telephonebooth with NAH–and he gets into all of these albums throughout our discussion, while touching on what he likes about doing a full project with one producer and what he’s looking to do next.
He also discusses his top current rappers, early influences, underrated New York rap records, his own path to becoming a rapper, and much more.
