City Girls, the popular rap duo consisting of Yung Miami and JT, have recently revealed the highly provocative title of their upcoming album. Titled “Real/Raw Ass Whores,” the announcement was made following their memorable performance at the BET Hip Hop Awards, leaving fans and interviewers momentarily speechless.
Key Takeaway
City Girls have boldly embraced their new album title, “Real/Raw Ass Whores,” sparking curiosity and raising questions about their intentions behind such a controversial label.
The abbreviation of the album title, which Miami confidently blurting out during the interview, immediately grabbed attention. JT shed some light by explaining that they were referring to themselves as “whores” in this particular instance. However, they didn’t explicitly clarify whether the term was meant to be empowering or endearing.
It’s worth noting that the duo’s choice of album title is reminiscent of Missy Elliott’s bold proclamation of herself as “a bitch” back in 1999, which was seen as a statement of empowerment. City Girls, on the other hand, seemed to approach their new nickname with lighthearted laughter.
While some fans expressed confusion and uncertainty about the album title, others were more concerned about the release date of October 20. Many felt that the duo hadn’t received enough promotion and anticipation for the album, potentially impacting its success.
Interestingly, City Girls have released four singles this year, but none of them have managed to make a significant impact on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. This is unusual for the platinum-selling hitmakers, who have had a consistent track record of success in the past.
Should the album fail to meet expectations, Yung Miami can find solace in her award-winning media career, which has been thriving. Additionally, JT has recently announced her plans to release a solo album in the near future, potentially creating new opportunities for both artists.
