The relentlessly playful and inventive Philly rapper Tierra Whack emerged as a dizzy artistic force on her 15-minute musical/visual feast Whack World in 2018, though she didn't release her proper debut album World Wide Whack until 2024. I'd say she's quietly become an influential figure in that time; it would be hard to imagine a figure like Doechii emerging if Whack hadn't come first. So it's a good time for Whack to announce a new mixtape.
Earlier this week. Tierra Whack announced plans to release a new "rap mixtape" called (Whack’s Museum) — parentheses hers — on Juneteenth. In that same Instagram post Whack also invites us to text her our "apologies" at (323) 747-7544. We haven't heard any music yet, and we don't know what direction she'll take, but the term "rap mixtape" is promising. In that Instagram carousel, Whack also shares a text from André 3000, who says that he loves it. That's good enough for me!
(Whack’s Museum) is out 6/19.
