Ian “MONiKer” Wilcox with his partner April Bauer On the evening of Monday, Feb. 23, 2021, the Colorado Springs music community and the world lost a great person, Ian Wilcox. Ian, also known as MONiKer, was a jolly giant who would attend any local show he could. He was a dedicated member of the local hip-hop scene, a big part of the spoken-word open mic known as Word Wednesdays and was a founding member of the music/art-oriented zine What’s Left Zine. I first met Ian in 2010 at Tony’s. I was with my friend Josh talking about starting that zine. We met Ian and talked about hip-hop and politics all night. From that moment, he came on board to do it with us. We had few ideas, but we started creating a zine with music, art and political discussion for the community. We couldn’t think of a name for it, and then Ian came up with “What’s Left.”
