Why Khaliq

Each Wednesday, Minnesota rapper Why Khaliq treats his following to a new song for a segment he calls #WhyWednesday. For the last month he has made this bit a little more intriguing by releasing songs with no titles, letting the tracks speak for themselves. “Each release I'm consistent with the same cover art except I change the photo with each release—allowing the audience to create their own titles,” Khaliq explains to us. “Once I'm done with the campaign I will go back and rename the records with their actual titles.”

This Wednesday, he shares the fifth track from this new No Title series, originally named “Makeda.” On his newest single, he teams up with Wisconsin rapper Ra'Shaun for a bit of a Midwest connection. The track opens up with Khaliq rhyming over the laid-back beat provided by Been Reza​. While Ra'Shaun uses his melodic tone to perfect a catchy chorus before laying down a verse of his own.
