After Voir Dire, his surprise full-length album with Earl Sweatshirt, The Alchemist is gearing up for yet another collaboration. It’s called Faith Is A Rock, and features N.Y.C.

The Alchemist, MIKE, and Wiki are sharing music ahead of their collaborative release later this week. "Mayor's A Cop" is the first single from the album, Faith Is A Rock, which they announced last week.

Wiki and Subjxct 5 have confirmed the details of their debut collaborative mixtape, Cold Cuts, and shared its lead single, “My Life.” The New York City rapper and Elizabeth, New Jersey producer first teased the project back in March in a joint show on NTS they dubbed the “Cold Cuts Radio Hour.” Six months later, it’s finally coming to fruition with an arrival date set for October 21 and a tracklist featuring frequent Wiki collaborator Navy Blue, frequent Subjxct 5 collaborator Papo2oo4, and Dark World progenitor DJ Lucas. Everything about the new project’s campaign thus far screams the type of old-school east coast hip-hop nostalgia Wiki and Subjxct 5 have both presented so artfully over the past decade, updating the familiar sounds ever so slightly for a new generation of listeners.

The new music we've heard from Wiki's upcoming album Half God has been slow-burning old soul rap music with a special fire: instead of being motivated by a hunger to be the best rapper, Wiki treats his music as an investment into his own self-discovery. That vibe continues "Can't Do This Alone," Wiki's new song with Navy Blue, the rapper and producer handling the beats behind Half God.
