REVIEW: TIERRA WHACK - WORLD WIDE WHACK

TIERRA WHACK - WORLD WIDE WHACK


 Yo, what’s good fam? It's ya boy Dondi White, AKA Green Snake in the Grass, AKA the video g*me violence researcher. Today, we’re breakin’ down this joint called "World Wide Whack" by Tierra Whack. Shorty kinda low-key in the game, I first peeped her on a Melanie Martinez track I flipped for one of my own projects. She decent, flowin’ and rhymin’ nice on that joint, so let’s see what she bringin' to the table this time:

1. MOOD SWING

Aight, this joint cool. Got a mellow vibe but some of the bars are mad cheesy. We gon’ survive though. Her voice kinda remind me of Asa, one of my fave Nigerian singers.

Beats - 5/10

10/20


2. MS. BEHAVE

Okay, beat comin' in nice. Lyrics aight too, but then she drops this:

"I'm about to raise the bar. Barian"

Sister, that pun is straight-up weak. I’m stuck on that, man. The whole track got lines like this... straight up wack ish.

Beats - 6/10

11/20


3. CHANEL PIT


Piano? Aight...more perfume talk, I see. It’s okay, but then she hits us with:

"Microsoft, I excel".

Come on, get her outta here. That’s corny as hell.

Beats - 4/10  
Lyrics - 5/10  
9/20

4. NUMB


She tryna do that mumble rap thing now. Yo, this ain’t it. She sound like she strugglin' to spit from palsy or somethin' like that. She need to enunciate better to make the message hit right. For real.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 2/10  
7/20

5. BURNING BRAINS


Feels like she’s tryna bite Melanie Martinez’s style too hard. That ain’t the right move. Melanie do her thing in alt-rock, but this is hip-hop, yo. Stay in your lane.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 2/10  
7/20 - That hook? Nah, unlistenable.

6. ACCESSIBLE


Nothin' special here. Breakup joint, but it’s just kinda whatever. Like if Taylor Swift dropped a rap album.

Beats - 4/10  
Lyrics - 6/10  
10/20

7. IMAGINARY FRIENDS


This whole album just got soft beats talkin' 'bout internal struggles. The flow mad weird, but this joint kinda nice. Make you think a lil’ bit.

Beats - 4/10

11/20

8. X


Oh, she spittin' for real now! Beat is fire too. This one actually slaps, even if it’s just about a breakup. She stepped up her rhyme game, no corny lines this time. This is what I’m talkin’ 'bout.

Beats - 7/10  
Lyrics - 7/10  
14/20

9. MOOVIES


Beat knockin', got that early 80s vibe. She singin’ on it first, then switchin' to rap. No corny bars, thank goodness. This one solid too.

Beats - 7/10  
Lyrics - 6/10  
13/20

10. DIFFICULT


Flow ain’t really hittin'. She toein' the line between real rap and mumble too close. I need my rap clear, y’know? But you can tell she spittin’ from the heart.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 6/10  
11/20

11. SHOWER SONG


Beat kinda nice, but the lyrics feel patched together. Still, it’s aight. Decent hook too.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 4/10  
9/20

12. INVITATION


She talkin’ her smack, might be subliminal shots at someone. It’s aight, but that ghostwriting threat? That’s unique, she gettin' points for that.

Beats - 3/10  
Lyrics - 7/10  
10/20

13. SNAKE EYES


Back to that modern rap vibe. Some bars go hard, others? Nah, miss me with that.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 4/10  
9/20

14. TWO NIGHT


Hook is solid, but the rest of it is just meh. Nothin' to write home about.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 4/10  
9/20

Edit - I woke up in the morning to finish editing this thing and legit ain't remembering what this ish was about.

15. 27 CLUB


This one’s soft as hell. Mad emotional, talkin’ 'bout suicidal thoughts and self-worth. It’s sad, might even be brilliant, but it don’t fully hit the mark. Maybe it’s too raw? Can’t put my finger on it.

Beats - 5/10  
Lyrics - 5/10  
10/20

Final score: 160/300
47%

Best Song: IMAGINARY FRIENDS  
Favorite Song: X  
Worst Song: MS. BEHAVE


Overall, this joint is just aight. Not trash, but it ain’t no fire either. It’s cool, somethin' you could throw on before you crash for the night. At least it ain’t a sex tape like that Ice Spice album. Tierra ain’t pushin' the same tired content, so props for that creativity. If you a Melanie Martinez fan or like artists in that lane, you might vibe with this. Ain’t no club banger, but it’s decent background music. Me personally? I’m only keepin’ X in rotation.
