New York City natives MIKE and Wiki come together with The Alchemist for their latest record Faith Is A Rock. Set to release on September 22, this marks the trio’s first collaboration since last year’s joint EP One More.

Faith Is A Rock reps 10 tracks and will be put out through The Alchemist’s ALC Records. No singles have dropped since the album’s announcement, following the same string of fate as their previous work One More’s release. The album art is sketched by New York artist Andre Thomas and illustrates MIKE carrying the weight of a boulder upon his shoulders.

Avoiding any pit stops, The Alchemist had just come down off the high of his much anticipated record with Earl Sweatshirt Voir Dire before the announcement. With a feature on the album’s lead single “Sentry,” MIKE will be supporting the duo on their upcoming Voir Dire Tour across the U.S. alongside Black Noi$e. 
Their joint project marks the first full-length release from Wiki since his 2022 record Cold Cuts with Subjxct 5. MIKE’s last solo effort comes from a loose single from earlier this summer called “Red Jacket 6,” dropping after his record Beware of the Monkey from December of last year.
