Tierra Whack Releases New Video For “MOOVIES”

After releasing her critically acclaimed debut album WORLD WIDE WHACK, GRAMMY-nominated recording artist and creative auteur Tierra Whack (Interscope Records) teams up with world-renowned contemporary artist and frequent collaborator Alex Da Corte for her latest video, “MOOVIES.” Unlike her last visual, “TWO NIGHT,” “MOOVIES” is a unique and more playful take on Tierra’s dating life, showcasing the good, bad, and ugly in a witty manner. She goes on numerous movie dates with high hopes to finally land the love of her life. Unfortunately, each date proves to be worse than the last, leaving her doubtful about romance. Yet, despite her woeful encounters, Tierra shows up to every date, faithful that there’s a partner out there for her. Tierra’s colorful lyrics and Da Corte’s creative direction are the perfect marriage, illustrating the genius behind WORLD WIDE WHACK.

Since its March release, WORLD WIDE WHACK has been a revelation, astounding both critics and fans alike. Variety praised the album: “WORLD WIDE WHACK is tender, fatalistic, colorful, and endearingly weird, a balance that can only be managed by someone with supreme curatorial instincts and the talent to swirl all the elements together.” Pitchfork echoed this sentiment,” saying: “Her eye for surreal, captivating detail loses none of its gleam.”

In addition, WORLD WIDE WHACK remains one of the year’s best albums nearly nine months after its release, making a dozen publications’ “Best Albums Lists,” including TIME, Rolling Stone, The Washington Post, Esquire, and more. Aside from dominating New York’s venerated venue Webster Hall earlier this year to a sold-out crowd, she also crushed NPR’s Tiny Desk, who hailed her performance as “One Of The Best Tiny Desks In History.” Despite her flashy wins, Tierra has yet to hit pause, staying active and performing at numerous concerts and festivals. Last June, she joined Jill Scott to perform an unreleased song during The Roots Picnic while coming out during Childish Gambino’s tour stop in Philly in August to do “MOOVIES.”

With Tierra delivering her best artistic work to date, the transcendent rap star is proving why she’s one of the generation’s leading faces.
