The Girl JT Hits NYC
By Ivan Guzman
May 01, 2024JT is on a roll. The self-proclaimed "City Cinderella" and South Florida rapstress has had quite the year as a solo act. Since the City Girls fulfilled their promise of dropping the new album RAW last Fall, JT has been flourishing in her own respective world with a fresh fashion it-girl aesthetic and steady stream of solo singles, first “Sideways” and most recently the defiant “Okay.”
She’s also taken this momentum and hit the road on an intimate US club tour. But just because it’s intimate doesn’t mean it won’t get rowdy. Last Saturday, New York City got a taste of JT when she stopped by The Harbor, and fans showed out in droves, packing into the small club like it was an arena. They gushed in City Cinderella merch and waved signs of JT’s face as she pulled up in a fur coat and cheetah print LV bag, proving that the rapper won’t seem to be missing any of the fanfare as she continues to stand on her own.
Community has always been a part of the City Girls brand, and JT plans to continue this ethos as she embarks on her solo journey, recently starting the City Cinderella campaign which aims to empower high school girls in the US with a series of nationwide pop-ups. The video for “Okay” is a glam group effort as well, featuring models Alex Consani and Aweng Chuol who stun in the neon-tinged clip.
