WHAT IT IS: First emerging under the name Dizzle Dizz as a 16-year-old back in 2011, the rapper made a name for herself with impressive rapid-fire freestyles in front of A$AP Rocky and Meek Mill. Finding her voice as an artist, she changed her name to Tierra Whack and started making the most creative, unique music of her career that was true to herself. She most recently released her visual album, Whack World, to widespread critical acclaim. Each song on the 15-track set is only a minute long, however, visuals for the songs show off her creative side as they all bring forth different looks and designs.
