Mercury is growing up in real time. She was 19 when she starred in Rico Nasty’s “STFU” video and 20 when she dropped her first project, MERCTAPE, a 7-song grenade from last summer. Since then, the Atlanta (via Memphis) rapper and skater performed across the US, even opening for NYC rapper MIKE on tour.
Her latest project tabula rasa (released 20 April 2022) would blend the Southern hip-hop she grew up on with slick trap production or what she calls “swag music”. Take the heady sounds of MATRIX (EvilGiane) or the downtown rush of RUNNING ROUND (Chicken) or even the blissful pulse of RASTA PASTA (454).
Mercury recently headlined her first NYC show at Baby’s All Right, performed at New York Fashion Week, and just finished her follow-up project due this Fall.
