WNDRKND (27) is a rapper hailing from Carrboro, NC. Originally born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, WNDRKND grew up listening to the modern-day gods. His continuous selections of Jay-Z, Nas, Eminem & B.I.G. showed an interest in intricate lyricism, but effectively paired with a pronouncedly dark & dramatic aesthetic which, at the time, was only visible through tales of the street. 
While his music isn’t ostensibly “street,” WNDRKND’s flavor of hip hop is markedly unique, described by some as post-apocalyptic, or industrial, rap. Taking departures from standard producing convention, each of his PGMW-laced tracks are cinematic, epic, spacious, dark, and progressive. 

If asked about his philosophy towards making hip hop, WNDRKND would say that it is an almost-religious experience, with creativity as the one true god. But above all else, regardless of ideology, WNDRKND believes that the ability to make music is a profound gift. 

Ultimately, however, WNDRKND just wants to spread the word, and get it out to the masses. While much of it focuses on life from his vantage point, there is something everyone can get out of his music. Whether it provokes thought, inspires dreams or galvanizes change, who knows? To him, all things are good.
