The Smoking Section & hosted by Trackstar The DJ, The Aristocrats is Wafeek‘s second solo release.The title is twofold in name – an allusion to the mythic dirty joke told and retold by comedians and the subject of a documentary of the same name in 2005. Also, it’s a reference to Wafeek’s ability to carry the torch on behalf of Hip-Hop’s grand tradition of storytellers.
Wafeek has taken a novel approach, eliminating the bells and whistles to simply create a mixtape full of damn good music. This barebones approach captures Wafeek’s essence; each song is a conversation in which the St. Louis MC reveals details about himself and his credo while inviting the listener to add input.
