Next week, the New York underground rap fixture Wiki will release his new album Ancient History . I have heard it, and it's great. For now, you'll mostly have to take my word for it, since Wiki's not exactly inundating us with advance singles. Up until today, the only one he shared was " Park ," his warm and hazy meditation on New York's green spaces. Most of Ancient History has that kind of dazed, humid production, but that's not what Wiki uses on "Right Away," the new single that he shared today.
The "Right Away" beat comes from past Wiki collaborator Laron, and it's a lively, stuttering boom that owes at least a little bit to drill music. Wiki locks in with that beat, free-association about being irresistible to women and trying to achieve and maintain the exact right level of high. The sunny video, from director Nicholas Stafford Briggs, finds Wiki and a friend lounging around a surprisingly spotless crib before venturing out into a beautiful New York City day. Check it out below.
Anicent History is out 6/12 on Wiki's Wikset Enterprise label.
