Apr 26, 2021DEACON delivers on the fantastic promise that Wise's earlier work - most notably his debut LP soil - has shown. He brings a creative, eccentric, and intelligent sound to alternative soul.

Mar 29, 2021It’s the cheekiness and humor of Deacon that really shines, without sacrificing the complex theatricality that has made Serpentwithfeet such a standout project.

Mar 29, 2021DEACON could use a few more awe-inspiring moments, but by celebrating simplicity, it enshrines the Black, queer love at its center as something blessedly uncomplicated and precious. Love doesn’t need tragedy to be great, and neither does serpentwithfeet. On DEACON, Wise proves his musicianship can stand on its own—no melodrama required.
