Source-derived summary

Wisdom Mikeal Oluola (born April 5, 2004), known professionally as Hurricane Wisdom, is an American rapper, singer-songwriter, and social media personality. Born in Tallahassee, Florida, and growing up in Havana, Florida, Oluola started his music career in 2018 or 2019, although he started taking the career seriously in 2020, with his debut single being "Granny's Baby".

Oluola got into music by going to church and to school choirs. Oluola got his stage name from when he had wavy hair; he later got dreadlocks. A significant amount of Oluola's discography consists of a mix of hip-hop, southern hip-hop, trap, pop rap, and contemporary R&B. His song "Giannis" was his breakthrough single, gaining over 30 million streams on Spotify. He signed with Rebel Music, but Gamma, a partner of Rebel, distributes his tracks through their partnership. In 2021, he self-released his debut album Hurricane Season.

He released his 2026 singles "Living Up" and "Barbie Doll" (with Chance the Rapper) with Gamma. Oluola was chosen as one of the twelve rappers featured on the XXL Freshmen Class of 2026. Throughout his career, Oluola has released eight studio albums, two extended plays, performed one live album, and recorded around seventy singles.
