Speaking as someone who lives in the US but is currently terrified of what's happening:

This gives a lot of people hope to see collaboration between a very public, very vocal progressive candidate; and a band with as much recognition and the kind of fanbase that Wu Tang has.

It means this is potentially lightning in a bottle. Given what's happening in the US right now, I think a lot of people might consider this uplifting, even though I agree it's a bit of a square peg round hole moment for this community at the moment.

It does promise something greater than the article lets on though.

You could post a simple picture of Mamdani and I'd consider it uplifting. He's not only inspiring in speech, he's inspiring in listening.
