The Wise Mateo

The Wise Mateo currently lives in New York City. Hip Hop has had an great affect on his life. "Very similar to Hip Hop's tug and pull at maturity, we fight our own growth. Hip Hop is too young to have a definitive character and will never have a true identity without a diverse voice. We can't define it with simply the old or the new, we have to figure out to somehow bring them together." - The Wise Mateo
