She's definitely my type of weird. Her songs are so catchy i wish they were longer
She dropped a new, FULL LENGTH song called Only Child
Yes first time I seen her on the way to school on vh1 I was like I need moreee ❤️
Right???????
I'm glad I knew about her before she was big and I can't wait to see more of what she do I can relate to her on a high key level
King Neptune she a clown
She admitted she used to eat baby powder lmaoooooooo that’s fire
i related sooooo hard. i used to eat it when i was 4/5 😭
she literally just said she likes looking at her own shit and you're impressed by that instead, lmao.
@@andsoitisbri same
straight out my strange addiction, tbh
@@s_u_l_f_u_r i mean honestly, i feel like that's prolly more common than eating baby powder, regardless of people not wanting to admit it.
When she said “my shit was blue, I was so amazed” I felt that lmao 🙌🏼🤣
I want her to flourish as an artist!!! Buuuttt she’s also my crazy secret obsession and I wanna keep it like that 😩♥️🙌🏽
Saaaame
It's not a secret now lol😏
You think she better then Megan the stallion???
@@jontaychilds3097 most definitely
Shainice Queen agreed. She is a much better lyricist.
philly loves you whack, thank you
orion sun so does Australia!
She creates crazy-beauty out of experiences that most of us dismiss.
At least that’s how I feel.
Also her face is UNREAL, so gorgeous. Beyond that, her insides match no doubt.
Hannah Alexandra I agree. She is authentic and to the core and her creative expression allows her to emit all of her emotions and child like creativity. It seems weird to outsiders/ society but really the fans and others Revere that trait . It’s from a pure place no gimmicks or worldly things to label or box in.
"You can't put me in a box cos you're not gonna get anything but if you just let me be me and let me be free that's when you get the best shit".👏👏👏👏👏👏I love this!!!Exactly how I am.
STARISE SUN that's the most main thing to come across, many folks just don't want yo hear your truth. but yo git to say, 'let me be me'. that putting through integrity and strength to what is often I am me don't like me fuck offf !!!!!!

she is adorable 💘
if Missy Elliot x Timbaland x Busta Rhymes had a child Tierra Whack is the result
Yes! I immediately thought of Missy but the Busta is just all yesssssss
Erm... Andre 3000?
I see your point of view although she's too cute. You gotta throw a cute Lil face in there. Maybe the brat...?
Yesss and Andre 3000 is her uncle
What about Tyler the Creator tho ?
Growing up being weird was looked down upon now it's something we crave .. hate bein like other ppl.
Lucy B I love this comment so much 💓
Right, it's such a change (in a good way). Being called a weirdo or anything similar was so bad back then, now its looked at as quirky and dope. I'm glad people are able to mind their damn business and allow others to be as creative as they wanna be!
@@k.gibson2032 Don't forget depression
@@k.gibson2032 you- mmm--... you don't understand ... how thankful I am to see this comment... some people like you realize this! OH MY GOSH! *faxs*
@@k.gibson2032 I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THIS LIKE STFU IF YOU HAD IT YOU WOULDN'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW.
Growing up in the inner city it's DEFINITELY a struggle to be YOURSELF especially when you're young, because you dont even realize that being YOU is what makes you cool and fearless. Most people go with the crowd which is really the safe scary sa alternative
Not that they spelt dr suess wrong at 0:27 who tf is dr Zeus ?
Jojo Picasso 😂😂😂
Bruh that shit made my ass itch
Brian Roper 💀💀💀💀💀
Relax
Hey Zeus
I only watched this B/C I'm from Philly. She was on 22nd Allegheny, when she was riding in the car, then on 10th Norris at the projects. She definitely from North Philly. 😂
The 12 dislikes are from those who are afraid of being themselves.
she got the potential to be great.. we need ppl like her in hip-hop.. different nd unique.
The crickets. On the chicken.
WHAAAT THE FUUUUK!!!
I love her! She just seems so authentic and thats appreciated nowadays
She’s a unicorn 💯💕🦄
ugh i love her!!! she seems so down to earth and sage honestly, i respect her a lot
abraxaspreface she dm'd me on IG when I did try it
I love this woman. She’s breaking stereotypes and being herself❤️
the first part she’s at the melrose diner!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️ there’s a certain weirdness and expressiveness in the air on the east coast, and she embodies it so well in her own unique way. i love her, she’s such an inspiration. 💘💘♥️💘♥️💘
HARDER THAN ANYONE OUT NOW
she’s a creative genius and such an amazing inspiration❤️🦋 so glad she’s getting recognition. great video and message
Couldn't have said it any better!
Agree!! She a REAL talent!
She not better then megan the stallion right????
this woman is nuts... in a good way.
When my dad was a baby my grandma would always praise him when he pooped; she’d say “did you ‘make’? Look at that, look at what you made!”
I think that had something to do with his superb self-confidence as an adult.
Tierra, Queen of the Whack Universe had me pondering that notion when she talked about her blue shit.
She basically affirmed herself to ultimate awesomeness. And it’s all thanks to blue KoolAid. 👑
I love my City . U see her smarts ,street wit and charm. You'll see that in Meek Mill and many many other artist from Philly. Just a fly as balance of urban and intellect
I remember her when she was Dizzle Dizz!!!!!
She is so freaking beautiful and talented.
Tierra is actually so inspirational. She's the core of what I want to be.
I've gotten in trouble, bad trouble, just for being me. So I walk with the fear of how I'll next get pinned for just being me, for being too honest, for being not like them. I want to lose that fear. But I can't shake the times I've paid for just being me.
wow. I just still can't believe I was in a room with her, lil uzi dj diamond kits and SZA all before they blew and now look. Everybody saying its me next lmao I. can't wait to share these stories. Im dead proud of all three of them SZA UZI AND HER ! foxfest was an event
How are you ‘next’ and don’t have a single video uploaded? 🤔
You had me at blue poop 🖖👽
YESSSS I love her whack world!!!!!!
Her eccentricity and ingenuity is so refreshing. She’s incredible 😍
I’m glad she’s getting recognition, she’s amazing and unique. We need her 🙌🏾
Talented, beautiful and down to Earth young woman, glad I came across this artist. I look forward to seeing more from her in the future.
what’s up with the crickets
Savannah New exactly I was like now wtf💀💀💀
She's expressing her love for Nature.
By letting bugs walk all over her food? Peculiar way lol
I know!! Them wings were looking good till they showed up😞
In some countries crickets are considered a delicacy...
Im 46, and she is schooling me.... im just now learning what she is talking about.... very wise
Why is she so relatable and funny tho😂♥️
I am one of 182K subscribers but since I discover Tierra I am always amazed by her creative work and sincerity!! Thanks Tierra!!
Tierra makes me feel so uncomfortable...,but in a good way.😂❤️
I love the shit out of her. We need more black female artists like her.
You're playing b-roll of bugs and not playing bug's life. Playing b-roll of wings and not playing 4 wings. Missed opportunity haha.

Bruh I love how she isn't afraid to say what she's thinking &being unapologetic about who she is...also her blue turd should be her next album cover❤😩👌

i love her ! she's a true artist. an artists artist.
I like both her and Leikeli47! So under the radar....and a breath of fresh air in the music industry!
SHE LEGIT A GIRL AFTER MY OWN HEART AND SOUL ❤️
SInce Azealia Banks can't be redeemed, I've been looking for someone who can write quirky, creative, out of the box bars and thank God I found this girl. She's amazing. I hope she doesn't waste her talent on any Twitter bs lol. She's really talented and can really rap.
She Is Too Fkn Dope, Talented & Unique!
So beautiful, so talented. Everything!
She’s weird and dope and HERSELF. So glad that more artist are just being true to who they’ve always been. Keep killing us with the authenticity 💚
She’ll never see this but you’re such a fucking inspiration. You’re the most real rapper out here and I’ve been a fan for awhile and living vicariously through you, watching you come up is so fucking amazing.
The 2020 Missy. Don't COSIGN alot of female artist but she's a go she is not the average millennial lol and I love all the youngans lol she's special though very creative I love her she's a star.

She released her baby grasshopper army on the wings, then ate them.
Editing
Im really excited about her
Philly in the building ‼️‼️♥️
I love seeing different artists from Philly. We are known for more than Meek Mill ( no insult to Meek)
One of the best artists hip hop has seen pure talent.
Growing up weird in Philadelphia is literally the best and worst thing people don't understand but you will always find those people who finally understand and accept and you just keep being you and Tierra proves being weird and unique isn't bad it's good
She goofy and weird AF! I love it!!! Tierra Whack, Meg the Stallion, Lekeli47, Doja Cat and Rico Nasty all are so underrated smh!
She’s like really fucking great. Her blow up needs to come right now everywhere tbh
She’s Awesome!
I love ya crazy lady ❤️
Philly stand up !
Luv her transparency
You are yah is looking looking over you keep on going... One love
I'm actually in love..
This is my first time seeing her
Love everything about her ❤
This day in the life got me liking Tierra Whack even more... 😁 I thought she was from the UK by how she sounds when she raps.
I saw this documentary out of nowhere at first, watched it all and said, why did this weird girl fall on my timeline. One of her song 'unemployed' fell on my timeline again later, didn't know it was the same girl; i fanned out, saw more songs, then got back here to say 'Heyyyyyyy hi my weird girl where you been why yu no tell me u det very talent girl eiiiiiiieeeee'
This is inspiring. Thank you
Y'all never heard a artist like this before male or female she's got a chance to be the best to ever do it her versatility and creativity is unmatched by anyone. Philly's got a bunch of talent i mean the City is flooded with it and im happy this one slipped through the cracks. Stop sleeping on Philly it's different from any City in the world and we've been doing it for a long time now. #UNDERDOGS
this made me fall in love with her even more
