Widely known for his critically acclaimed mixtapes, Wale fuses DC's homegrown go-go genre with a streetwise Northern hip-hop sensibility and his lyrical dexterity. After signing with Rick Ross' Maybach Music Group, Wale released his sophomore album, Ambition. This summer he played all the major festivals including Summer Jam, CounterPoint and Lollapalooza, gearing up for his new mixtape, #Folarin, and his new album on coming out this spring.
