Tigra and SPNCR – Black Rice

Tigra and SPNCR, the electrifying duo of rap icon Lady Tigra (of L’Trimm) and producer/multi-instrumentalist Spencer Nezey (of Jupiter Rising), today share their new 5-track EP, Black Rice which is out today via [PIAS] Électronique.

Alongside the release of the new EP, they have shared a video for the single, “Shoot Your Shot”.

Black Rice finds the duo blending 808s with analog synths, witty lyricism with lush harmonies, and a mellow West Coast attitude with intergalactic cool. The music at-large showcases the duo’s mission: to make music that’s fearless, feminine, and funky — the soundtrack to liberation, pleasure, and protest.

Lady Tigra, best known as one-half of the iconic 1980s Miami bass duo L’Trimm, helped define the voice of a generation. With hits like “Cars That Go Boom”, claimed by Jennifer Lopez to be one of her favourite songs, she became a trailblazer for women in rap and a fashion icon of the golden age of hip-hop, as well as earning her a feature on Yo Gabba Gabba!. After L’Trimm, Tigra evolved as a solo artist and cultural curator, remaining rooted in her love of rhythm, rebellion, and retro-futurism.

Spencer Nezey rose to fame as a founding member of the electro-hip-hop band Jupiter Rising, where he served as beatboxer, saxophonist, and producer. A genre-blending musician with deep roots in funk, jazz, and electronic music, his collaborations span indie to mainstream, always with a signature blend of live instrumentation and digital finesse.
