Wake Up Lucki is a collaborative album by Chicago rapper Lucki and producer F1lthy, released on December 3, 2021 via Empire. It consists of 12 tracks and runs approximately 27 minutes.
Lucki enlisted F1lthy of Working on Dying to produce the entire project.
LuckiâÂÂs vocal delivery throughout the recording leans into emotional detachment. F1lthyâÂÂs production uses "distinct" tread bass.
Many reviews agreed that F1lthyâÂÂs beats are the strongest asset. Critics found the album cohesive and emotionally resonant, though some felt parts of it were too homogenous in tone. Pitchfork gave it a 7.5/10, praising the synth-heavy, futuristic beats and LuckiâÂÂs diaristic style of lyricism that balances emotional numbness with vivid imagery. Legends Will Never Die considered it one of LuckiâÂÂs stronger recent projects, praising tracks like "U.G.K." and "Busy Day" for blending psychedelic feel with strong emotional core. Fantastic Hip Hop gave it ~5.7/10, complimenting the consistency of F1lthyâÂÂs production and noting that Lucki maintains mood across the tape, although some felt the vocal delivery became monotonous.
