Critical Praise:

“[wifisfuneral] displays an impressive array of verbal acrobatics, showing off masterful breath control and a rapid fire flow.” – Pitchfork

“The young rapper has a wide range of skills, from agile raps and bass-heavy tracks to dark and moody slow-burners, and his unpredictability is part of his appeal” – Pigeons & Planes

“Wifisfuneral is becoming a hotter and hotter commodity in the rap world these days, and he’s making sure to prove his skillset as a lyricist in the game.” – XXL

The Song:

With a dexterous flow and excellent taste in instrumentals, Palm Beach County’s wifisfuneral is a leader of the new wave of Florida rappers. Paying tribute to the classic era of Cash Money Records, wifisfuneral shares “Juveniles,” a high-energy new banger. Borrowing the famous flow from Juvenile’stimeless “Back That Azz Up,” wifisfuneral lets loose on the new track, proving his lyrical prowess over a bouncy beat by Jahlil Beats, the man behind Bobby Shmurda’s “Hot N*gga” and many other hits. Featuring an appearance from rising Alabama wunderkind YBN Nahmir, “Juveniles” is the latest single from Ethernet, wifi’s highly anticipated upcoming mixtape. “Juveniles” follows the eventful, Complex-premiered video for Ethernet single “Knots,” featuring Jay Critch and boasting a cameo appearance from Fatboy SSE.

Signed to Alamo Records, wifisfuneral experienced a meteoric rise in his late teens, building a sizable following on SoundCloud. In the past year, wifi worked hard to translate his internet fandom into an IRL phenomenon, sharing his major label debut mixtape Boy Who Cried Wolf, as well as When Hell Falls, which debuted at #17 on the iTunes Hip-Hop Chart. In fall 2017, wifi embarked on the successful Boy Who Cried Wolf Tour, and he shared “LilSkiesFuneral,” which features breakout rapper Lil Skies and racked up over 4 million streams on Spotify and 3.75 plays on SoundCloud. In the run-up to the imminent Ethernet, the syrupified single “Genesis” and the paranoid “25 Lighters,” which recently copped a verse from Curren$y on the remix. Earlier this year, wifi hopped on a remix to Comethazine’s DJ Mustard-produced “Sticks,” a couple of collaborations with Robb Bank$, and shared Last Time Doing Drugs, a joint EP with wifi’s longtime collaborator and producer Cris Dinero, which features an appearance from Craig Xen. Most recently, wifisfuneral rocked the main stage at Rolling Loud 2018, thrilling the hometown crowd with his new material. Prepare for Ethernet, releasing imminently.
