Tierra Whack Admits She Doesn’t Always ‘Feel Good’ On Her Melancholy New Songs

Releasing ‘Feel Good’ and ‘Peppers And Onions,’ Whack addresses the ups and downs of fame. …

Tierra Whack’s latest single, “Feel Good,” finds the undefinable Philadelphia artist in an introspective mood, admitting that fame isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be. Over a dreamy but melancholy backdrop, Whack wonders, “Why would I lie and say I feel good when I don’t feel good?” Although the track is short — clocking in at around 100 seconds — Tierra proved she can pack a lot of emotional content into a relatively short space with her breakout project Whack World two years ago and it looks like that gift hasn’t dulled with her time away.

Whack also released the song “Peppers And Onions” today, addressing “the pros and the cons of bein’ the bomb.” Despite being more upbeat than “Feel Good,” with a bouncy beat full of perky whistling and tongue-clicks, it’s a subtle commentary on the imperfections of being human and especially a celebrity. “Even though we buy chains, we just wanna be free,” she raps. “I don’t wanna be judged, I just wanna be me.”

Premiering the songs on Apple Music today, she told Zane Lowe, “All these good things were happening for me, but at the same time it was happening so fast I wasn’t able to take it all in. So I feel like everything is like a gift and a curse”

She continued, “I got to just reflect on everything that I had did prior, and I just was like, wow, I really need to be happier. I deserve to be happy. I should be happy. There’s no reason I should not be happy. Because for a minute I was feeling like I just didn’t know what to feel. I was confused. I’m seeing everybody around me was excited and happy for me, but I didn’t feel happy inside, and I didn’t know why.”

Jonathan Zogbi reaches new heights with new release “Sky High”

Jonathan Zogbi’s latest release, “Sky High,” is a turning point in his career as a musician. It turns personal problems into a message of hope and growth. The track has a catchy beat and a modern, sleek production style, but it also has a deeper meaning and purpose.

“Sky High” draws on modern pop music and gives it a spiritual boost. The production is bright, which makes it easy to get into, but it doesn’t take away from the song’s emotional core. On the other hand, Zogbi walks a fine line between being popular and telling a good story.

The story behind this release is what makes it so cool. After getting a diagnosis that changed his life, Zogbi left his job as an engineer and turned inward, eventually turning to music. This started as a personal outlet, but it has clearly grown into something more purposeful: a place for realness, connection, and art rooted in a message. Jonathan Zogbi’s new song “Sky High” is also a statement about an artistic path defined by purpose, showing that you can rise even when things are tough.

Knux Burgandy rejects being average on new release “Mediocre”

Knux Burgandy’s new single, “Mediocre,” sounds more like a personal statement than a song. The Boston producer-artist is all in on pain rap, and the song hits hard and with purpose. It’s based on raw feelings, sharpened by what you’ve been through.

“Mediocre” is a hard-hitting trap record, but what really sets it apart is its heart. Burgandy doesn’t just rap, he also talks about how he feels, thinks, and fights against settling for less. It’s easy to chant the hook, and it stays in your head after just one listen. The message, on the other hand, lasts a lot longer, no matter what happens, don’t settle for an average life.

Knux Burgandy is becoming well-known in a way that seems real and important. His community is increasingly supporting him, and he is clearly dedicated to his work. The word “mediocre” isn’t just a word, it’s a reminder that being average was never the goal.
