2Wi is a truly unique artist. Another masked rapper? Not at all. Far from the raw aggression of “La Sauvagerie” by Kalash Criminel or the thug rap of Kekra, 2Wi stands out with more chill, laid-back vibes. Deeply passionate about fashion and attentive to the visual aesthetics of his music videos, he has just unveiled the second single from his debut project, shot in the vibrant city of Tokyo.
2Wi reaches out to his “Lisa”!
The instrumental composition of the track is signed by Le Dim and Bod, members of 75erastudio. It’s worth noting that Le Dim also contributed to the production of the hit collaboration between Soso Maness and Naps on the track “Allez”. Here, the beat is built around a guitar sample that evolves into a captivating solo toward the end, supported by a rhythm with a subtle Latin influence. 2Wi‘s voice, wrapped in echoes, resonates throughout the track with understated intensity. Every sonic and visual detail reflects a meticulous search for uniqueness and originality, allowing the artist to set himself apart from others.
With swagger and style, 2Wi drops bold punchlines, often referencing luxury brands: “I leave the whip with the valet” or “to settle the score, I need the Audemars”. His lyrics are delivered with smooth control, without rushing, over a beat that is more ambient than flashy.
Shot in Tokyo, the music video is directed by Lokeman, a master at capturing unique atmospheres. Between vibrant street scenes and solo shots, the rapper moves through a blue-tinged visual palette that perfectly aligns with the electric and chill vibe of the track. Lokeman is no stranger to this style, having already directed the 2021 collaboration between Lonepsi and Sofiane Pamart on “Ce que je vis me manque déjà”.
