Tierra Whack is back with a new single, “Chanel Pit,” and an accompanying music video. Stream it below.
Produced by Nick Verruto, “Chanel Pit” finds the Philly rapper and singer sprinkling a variety of references to Microsoft Excel, Resident Evil, and Vin Diesel alongside fashion designers like Rick Owens. “Mosh pit smell like Chanel” she raps on the chorus. “Yes, Microsoft, I’ma excel/ Mhm, nine, ten, eleven, fuck 12.”
In the typically whimsical visual treatment, directed by frequent collaborator Alex Lill, Whack goes through an automated car wash without actually sitting in a vehicle. Watch the video below.
Whack spoke about “Chanel Pit” in an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, during which she explained the song has been sitting around for a while. “I made it a few years ago,” she said. “I have a lot of music stacked, but it’s something about anytime I would play that song for people,...

Some years there’s no clear favorite to win Best New Artist at the Grammys and you get complete and utter chaos trying to predict the category (kinda like this year). Other years, though, it feels like everyone in the industry is unanimously riding behind a breakout talent and the win is pretty much locked from the start. We’ve seen it with artists like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo, but don’t forget about Chance the Rapper in 2017. His Grammy victory for Best New Artist was so assured that he led Gold Derby’s odds with almost three times as many users predicting him as his closest competitor. Everyone knew it was Chance’s moment to shine that year, but how did he go from a viral sensation to a three-time Grammy winner seemingly with such ease?

We might not always notice, but musical soundtracks are a major part in the evolution of cinema. Although soundtracks tend to differ from film scores in that they’re usually inspired by a film vs. written specifically for it, but sometimes the movie soundtrack is just as big (if not bigger) than the film itself.
In celebration of the films released this year, we put together a beginner’s guide to seven of the best movie soundtracks of 2021 (so far). Find the list below, and for more music...
