Tierra Whack Expands the Haunting World of WHACK’S MUSEUM with CANDLE WAX Lyrical Video

Tierra Whack has never disappointed in producing striking visual accompaniments to her hard hitting Philly punchline rap. The new release of the hauntingly beautiful lyrical video for ‘CANDLE WAX’ adds another chapter to the immersive cinematic universe of WHACK’S MUSEUM and the rapper’s discography. 

The video opens with Tierra resting her head on a bed of candles. The scene then shifts to the rapper at a dinner table at what appears to be a funeral wake, various attendees dressed in black attire covered in bills. A poignant image of Tierra, who stares directly into the camera, standing beside a child eating, closes the video. Like much of the previous visual work she has produced for WHACK’S MUSEUM, the ‘CANDLE WAX’ video embraces ambiguity. The 45 second long visualiser is packed with evocative imagery that we can’t quite grasp the exact meaning of. Whack’s imaginative wordplay in the forefront making sense of the scenes leaves a powerful impression.

Whack is no longer just a Grammy nominated recording artist. Ever since her debut album, WORLD WIDE WHACK, the rapper has continuously grown and proven her artistry across a myriad of impressive visual pieces. The release of the ‘CANDLE WAX’ video follows the official visuals for ‘WHACK JOB’ and ‘Siren’ from WHACK’S MUSEUM. Both videos show the rapper’s duality in being an inspired musician and visual storyteller, giving a peek into her artistic mind. Museum is a fitting word for the album title. It’s a tight 27 minute long mixtape with Whack’s lyricism and storytelling abilities on display, the videos serving as a stirring gallery showcase. 

Tierra Whack’s WHACK’S MUSEUM isn’t just another rap album, it is a cinematic universe that keeps expanding with the rapper’s artistry, solidifying her as one of the most innovative artists in the industry. The ‘CANDLE WAX’ lyrical video is another outstanding proof of this fact, with stunning visuals that carry meaning frame by frame.
