Blessed with a supernatural sense of melody, North Florida’s Hurricane Wisdom is surging in his home state and beyond. Delivering on his vast potential, the 20-year-old artist enters a new category, with Perfect Storm, his new mixtape. Perfect Storm is home to “Giannis (Remix),” a new version of Hurricane’s 2024 breakout hit with a guest verse from Polo G. The remix has over 1 million streams across platforms, and came hot on the heels of “Salute” (2.7 million video views), his collab with fellow North Florida rapper Loe Shimmy, and preceded recent releases for mixtape highlights “Demand” and “On God” ft. Raq Baby. Featuring additional guest spots from NoCap, Fredo Bang, Skilla Baby, Sleepy Hallow, and more, Perfect Storm is available on all platforms via Open Shift Distribution.
Spanning 24 tracks, Perfect Storm illustrates why Hurricane Wisdom is one of the most exciting artists in Florida’s bustling rap scene. From the opening track, the invigorating chipmunk soul “No Fatigue,” Hurricane delivers addictive melodies and unapologetic lyrics with the kinetic urgency of an artist hellbent on achieving rap stardom. The young rapper swirls around his instrumentals–produced by a diverse crew of beatmakers that includes dxntemadeit, Einer Bankz, TnTXD, PlutoBrazy, Dinuzzo, KJay Beats, and many more–with ear-catching cadences, swirling around the accents of each beat like a cyclone. Perfect Storm‘s first side is unapologetically ambitious, presenting a series of flexer’s anthems like “YN,” “Don’t Care,” and the futuristic “Need Me.” Later on, Hurricane grows more reflective, opening up his heart on songs like the Future-referencing “Drugs Callin,” the acoustic guitar-driven “Perfect Imperfections” and the Ruth B.-sampling “Why.” By the mixtape’s end, on the softly-sung “Dreamcatcher,” Hurricane Wisdom combines these sentiments, detailing his desire to succeed despite long odds.
Born and raised in Havana, Florida, just 30 minutes from Tallahassee, Hurricane Wisdom earned a big fanbase (117k YouTube subscribers, 272k Instagram followers) with his emotionally honest lyrics and entrancing melodies. His 2024 project Eye Of The Storm featured “Giannis,” a kinetic anthem dedicated to the Milwaukee Bucks superstar, which became Hurricane Wisdom’s biggest hit to date, with over 15 million YouTube views and 6 million Spotify streams. “Giannis” earned rapturous reviews from critics as well!
With co-signs from Rod Wave and NLE Choppa, a spot supporting NoCap on his tour, and coverage in Billboard, BET, UPROXX, AllHipHop, and more, the conditions are perfect for Hurricane Wisdom to make a major impact on the rap game. Keep an eye out…a storm is coming.
