Tierra Whack has too many ideas to sit still, and that includes both writing new music and coming up with great puns. Hence why she’s just announced her new record (Whack’s Museum) that’s slated for release on June 19. The self-described “rap mixtape” follows her 2024 studio album World Wide Whack.
When sharing the news on Instagram, Whack asked fans to “please text your apologies here: (323) 747-7544.” She continued: “I’m gonna read every single one and smile. Not because I won. Because I never stopped believing in myself when you stopped believing in me.” Whack also included a screenshot of a text conversation with André 3000, in which the Outkast rapper complimented an unreleased track that she sent to him and shared his general support.
(Whack’s Museum) will technically be the second mixtape of Whack’s career, although her debut release—2018’s Whack World—is often retroactively considered to be her debut album. That breakthrough record was served as a short film, with Whack filming music videos for each song and releasing them as a visual album; it earned her a Grammy nomination for the “Mumbo Jumbo” visual.
