Hurricane Wisdom had an outstanding 2025, during which he established himself as one of rap music’s most exciting rising stars. After rising in Summer 2024 with “Giannis” (over 60 million streams across platforms), which was named one of the best songs of that year by Pitchfork, Hurricane boosted his profile with two high-quality projects in 2025. In February, Hurricane dropped Perfect Storm. Home to “Giannis” (Remix) ft. Polo G, and additional hits like “Drugs Callin” and “On God” ft. Raq Baby, Perfect Storm charted on the Billboard 200 for three weeks (#126 peak).
During the summer, Hurricane tore up the scene with a series of singles, including  “Woosah” (which peaked at #9 for YouTube trending and #40 on the YouTube Top Music Video chart), “Afraid” (reached #12 on YouTube’s Trending Chart), “Powerhouse,” which Hurricane debuted on Kai Cenat’s Mafiathon stream with On The Radar, reached the Top 10 of YouTube’s Trending Chart, and #89 on YouTube’s Music Video chart, and, “OT,” which reached the Top 5 of YouTube’s Trending Chart, and #86 on the YouTube Music Video Charts. Those singles and more appeared on Perfect Storm: Sorry 4 The Rain. More than a deluxe, Perfect Storm: Sorry 4 The Rain brings 17 original songs, not yet collected on any project, landing multiple weeks on the Billboard 200 with a peak of #54, debuting in the Top Ten of Billboard’s Top Independent Albums chart and at #16 on Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
