Staten Island native wolfacejoeyy has quickly ascended in underground circles as of late — all stemming from the success of fan-favorite cuts in “miss me,” “gi joe” and “money trees.”
Sitting at nearly 20,000 Spotify monthly listeners — and gaining notoriety among the likes of new wave stars in midwxst, Yung Fazo and others — the 19-year-old standout has become one to watch for many reasons, but mostly for his extreme versatility within his music. Touting clever verses, energetic vocals and addictively melodic hooks, the young rapper seems to check all the boxes needed to make a track fully come to life.

Tell her, “Bend that ass, back it up, don’t break it” (Okay)
Take ya’ mama now, [?] (Alright)
