The upcoming album will host “The Mop,” a collab with Kblast and Huncho Da Rockstar that generated over 40 million streams and inspired one of the first viral dances of the young decade, and “iRock (Sippin On Dat Ciroc),” a thumping Texas trap slapper with an appearance from Kblast. Featuring additional appearances from Father and former Flosstradamus DJ YehMe2, Wasteland. arrives December 4th via Ultra Records.
Along with the album announcement, Tisa shares the raunchy new video for “Rocky Road,“ an EDM-flavored bouncer with contributions from Father and YehMe2. Built around rickety percussion and subterranean bass from YehMe2, “Rocky Road” juxtaposes Tisa’s rubbery double entendres with Father’s cucumber-cool rasp. In the video, the two emcees take their Jeep through a drive-thru strip club as they encourage the employees to bounce to the propulsive beat.
Wasteland. will also host “Did You Know (Wifi Password)/Bounce,” a downtempo Texas trap banger, that officially releases on all DSPs today. A Pitchfork-approved banger that earned the attention of Chance The Rapper, “Did You Know” proves that TisaKorean’s music is compulsively danceable, even when he turns down the tempo. The music video for “Did You Know (Wifi Password)/Bounce” has over 185k YouTube views since its mid-October release.
With notable fans including Chance The Rapper, LeBron James, Lil Uzi Vert, James Harden, Jonah Hill, Marshmello, Diplo, and more, TisaKorean is primed to bring his positive energy to a bigger audience with Wasteland. Stay tuned for more.
