Chicago-based MC/poet Mick Jenkins is praised for his socially conscious, intelligent lyrics and tough yet unforced delivery, as well as his blend of jazz, soul, and hip-hop influences. He first made an impact during the early 2010s with several mixtapes, then broke through with 2014's The Water[s]. Collaborating with artists like Noname, Kaytranada, and BadBadNotGood, he explored concepts of truth and love on subsequent releases Wave[s] (2015) and The Healing Component (2016), his official debut album. He kept up his productive pace with several EPs and the full-lengths Pieces of a Man (2018) and The Elephant in the Room (2021).
