Wiki & Subjxct 5 share "One More Chance (feat. Navy Blue)," the fourth and final single from Cold Cuts, a new collaborative mixtape arriving this Friday, October 21st via Wiki’s own label Wikset Enterprise. The collaborative tape sees the duo linking up as Wiki lays heavy-hitting bars over Subjxct5's "nimble, energized beats... making an old East Coast sound brand new," according to The FADER, across 18 tracks serving as the follow up to his 2021 album Half God, produced entirely by Navy Blue.
Half God marked Wiki's second full-length release last year after releasing the Nah-produced Telephonebooth earlier in 2021. Across its 15-tracks, the critically-acclaimed project connects the NYC staple with Navy Blue, one of the most refreshing young, acclaimed rapper/producers to break out in recent years, for an album that pushes each of their talents to new heights. Wiki's storytelling as the city's young OG has never been more vivid and Navy Blue's production pushes further into every sonic corner he's explored today, providing a perfect canvas for Wiki's signature voice.
Wiki has become a fixture of the New York City Hip Hop since, at 17 years old, representing a new generation of city kids and artists, hungry for innovation and raw energy. The epicenter of Wiki’s artistic expression through music and style was Chinatown, downtown NYC. Coming of age in the neighborhood, living there for years while creating his solo albums, inevitably laced his music with the culture that permeates the singularly New York, Chinese neighborhood. His song "Chinatown Swing" off his first LP No Mountains in Manhattan paints a picture of walking through the neighborhood and the feelings and sites one encounters. When painting lyrical pictures of New York scenes one gets a sense of Wiki’s skill as a storyteller and visionary. He has solidified his role in carrying the torch for NYC’s master MC’s; representing for the freaks, weirdos and underbelly culture.
