The Alchemist, MIKE & Wiki Allude to Mayor Eric Adams on New Single “Mayor’s A Cop”

Over production from The Alchemist, MIKE and Wiki take their lyricism across New York City in the music video for new single “Mayor’s A Cop.” Directed by Ryosuke Tanzawa, the song appears on the trio’s joint album Faith Is A Rock, which releases Friday (September 22). MIKE and Wiki go back, with the former opening up for Wiki during the Brooklyn stop of the 5 Borough Tour in 2017.

The “Mayor’s A Cop” title seemingly references Mayor Eric Adams, while Faith Is A Rock follows 2022 EP One More, which Alchemist, MIKE and Wiki dropped in collaboration with Tommy Hilfiger.
