After dropping off his highly-anticipated debut Who Is Nardo Wick? last December, 2022 HipHopDX Rising Star Nardo Wick is back with some new music.
On Monday (July 18), the Jacksonville native announced a summer takeover, and said on Instagram that the project’s sequel will arrive on Friday (July 22).
Who Is Nardo Wick? 2 comes shortly after the Rising Star impressed fans with his 2022 XXL Freshman Cypher alongside Big30, KenTheMan and Big Scarr. The 20-year-old rhymer also just linked up with Scarr for his new song “Yeah Woah,” which he gave the visual treatment on Monday (July 18).

Aside from dropping a new project and being a part of the 2022 XXL Freshman Class, Nardo is also getting ready to hit the road with Lil Durk. Durkio announced that starting in September he would embark on The 7220 Deluxe Tour in support of the deluxe edition of his latest album 7220.
Nardo and Doodie Lo will be along for the North American trek, which will find all three of them heading to Oklahoma City on September 17 before traveling out to Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Baltimore and a slew of other cities before they wrap things up in Seattle on October 17.
The original Who Is Nardo Wick? featured appearances from Future, Lil Baby, G Herbo, Lil Durk, 21 Savage, Lakeyah and BIG30. The project debuted at No. 19 on the Billboard 200 in its first week, thanks in part to the success of his breakout single “Who Want Smoke? which was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) before the album even dropped.
