Today, Wiki released his new album ‘Ancient History,’ his first solo album in 7 years.
The album centers on New York City parks as everyday infrastructure—“places to meet friends, write, think, observe people, and briefly step outside the rush of the city without ever really leaving it.”
@wikset worked with a range of producers including The Alchemist, Navy Blue, Nick Hakim, Dom Maker (Mount Kimbie), and dj blackpower (MIKE). The 14-track project features NYC artists Your Old Droog, duendita, and SALIMATA.
Being black and having a different opinion than the group, has been like this for as long as I can remember.
That's why a lot of us in life, learned to shut the fuck up and move in silence and get shit done.
What I love about this scene is that Huey simply has a different opinion and it disrupted this supposed black unity. When Uncle Ruckus shows up and agrees with Huey, people will then associate Huey with Ruckus despite his reasoning being completely different.
That's how it is in real life and social media. Just because you have a different opinion and some Uncle Ruckus or racist agree with you doesn't mean you align with them. They attach themselves to your opinion to validate their own personal bias, which is something you have no control over.
That's why when you say something they disagree with, they will also attack you too because their intent was never aligned with yours to begin with.
That's why the whole "See, you cultivated these kinds of people and now they are turning on you." Is stupid, no I didn't cultivate anything, these people latched onto my opinion to validate their own internal bias without knowing the nuance of my opinion.
Despite Nas feeling like he wasn’t a present parent, his daughter Destiny disagrees, recalling all the times they were together, with him pouring into her, teaching her how to read, spell, and embrace her melanin very early on
