Ready for some fire new tunes? Just kick back and get ready for what hip-hop artist TiaCorine is delivering to the masses in the coming days in the form of an Almost There EP.

What better way to get into the mood than checking out what Tia has to offer? A new ‘Bonnet’ anthem? Say less.

Burgeoning North Carolina star TiaCorine announces the release of her new single, “Bonnet.” Listen HERE via Interscope Records. The propulsive song will be joined by “Yung Joc,” her recently released hit collaboration with Luh Tyler, on Almost There, Tia’s major label debut EP, out Friday, February 2.

Over a frantic, infectious beat that sounds like the most exhilarating corners of the internet transported to the sweatiest nightclub, Tia shows off her now-trademark vocal versatility. In fact, in a fitting show of how instinctive her music has become, at one point in “Bonnet” Tia’s breath itself becomes a key part of the rhythmic infrastructure. 

“Bonnet” and “Yung Joc” will be included alongside six other new songs on Almost There, the Winston-Salem native’s most ambitious project yet. Fans can catch the budding superstar on her just-announced headlining tour with Monster Energy. Dates are as follows:

ABOUT TIACORINE

There’s a nostalgic hypnotism in TiaCorine’s music and style. TiaCorine’s roots lie in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, a bustling, industrious city sat squarely in the middle of the Northern and Southern border of the U.S., making the young rapper’s music evocative of multiple coasts and styles while still anchored in a subtle, decidedly Southern foundation.  While in college, Tia welcomed her first child and almost hung up the rap crown. “My friend had me come to the studio, and I made a song. And it just came back. It's been over a year since I rapped or did anything, and it just was so easy and natural for me. I forgot I love music.” Calling back to her knowledge of piano and flute from her childhood, Tia brought her music theory knowledge to the studio to create the perfect ear worm.

“I made a song called ‘Cabbage’ with OGSpliff and I just started becoming a legend in Winston, because everybody was like, ‘Wow, this is a different sound you have. It's hard,’” Tia says.  In the middle of welcoming her first child and finishing her degree, Tia tapped into her passions within fashion, anime, hip-hop, and more to record songs sporadically throughout college.  “Lotto,” christened with Sailor Moon sound bites and vicious, cocky bars nestled between a deceptively charming hook, Tia knew she couldn’t turn back now. The lethal pair of her 34Corineand Pussy EPs put her on the map leading into 2022’s I Can’t Wait. Toward the tail end of the year, the infectious, instructive “Freaky T” made its way online. From TikTok to the club, TiaCorine became inescapable.  Since “Freaky T,” the Winston-Salem superhero has embarked on a tour with Key Glock, blessed her hit single with a remix from Latto, festival appearances, and more, having done all of this before her major label debut.  Since signing with Interscope in 2023, TiaCorine intends to give audiences a taste of all the characters inside her.
