Nardo Wick

Nardo Wick, born Horace Bernard Walls III on December 30, 2001, is an American rapper from Jacksonville, Florida who built his reputation on dark, menacing trap production paired with an aggressive, low-register delivery. He first broke through on TikTok thanks to his hook on «Who Want Smoke?», a track whose viral momentum turned into a full remix featuring Lil Durk, G Herbo and 21 Savage, cementing him as one of the most talked-about new voices in trap music.

Building on that breakout, Nardo Wick released his debut studio album, Who is Nardo Wick?, which brought in guests such as Lil Baby and Future and reached the Billboard 200 top twenty. His sound leans on ominous, minimal beats and repeated, chant-like hooks, a formula that has made songs like «Me or Sum», «Hot Boy» and «Wicked Witch» staples of contemporary drill-influenced rap playlists.

Since his debut, he has continued releasing music that keeps the same brooding energy while expanding his collaborator list, positioning himself among the generation of rappers who came up through social-media virality before translating that reach into chart success.
