JT’s First Week Numbers For “City Cinderella” Stirs Up A Back-And-Forth Debate

by

On July 19, City Girls rapper JT put full belief in herself to shake things up a bit by dropping City Cinderella. Her debut solo mixtape, powered by singles such as “OKAY”, its remix with Jeezy, and “Sideways”, has been receiving quite the favorable reaction from reviewers. While it isn’t necessarily blowing people out of the water, the scores are very solid. We are in that same boat, as we feel that JT put forth some standout performances and chose some thumping beats. There are moments of repetition, and the features don’t really add much, but overall, it’s a respectable debut.

With it being well over a week now since its release, the final numbers are in for City Cinderella. In terms of sales, it pulled in 26,000, according to That Grape Juice. That is just 1,000 less than the original projection. As for what that means in terms of charting, it slots in at 27th on the Billboard Hot 200. For context, RAW, the City Girls’ last project, did just 6,000. Additionally, it competed with the likes of Childish Gambino and Denzel Curry’s bodies of work that week, and it actually outdueled the latter substantially.

Now that the final stats are in, its causing quite the debate online. On one hand, fans are extremely proud of JT. Their argument is that based on what RAW did, 26,000 is a substantial increase and that progress is progress. Conversely, this stance has some riled up. People on this side are calling out the ones who were gassing it up, but still didn’t decide to a buy it. Essentially, they feel that these fans are coddling JT and not keeping it real. For example, here are two differing quotes. “27k is not good. For an established artist. Regardless if this is her first solo effort”. “Her last project did 6k, the goal is to do better than your last project. Give my girl her 10’s ❤”.

What are your thoughts on the first week sales numbers for JT’s City Cinderella? Whose side are you on in this debate and why? What songs are you revisiting from her debut mixtape? Is she having one of the best 2024’s for female rappers? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding JT. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Do Nicki Minaj And JT Have Beef?

Even after a short-lived dust up (and a resurfaced a diss track), Nicki Minaj and JT seemed to have put their animosity to the side. Since then, the ladies have appeared on livestreams, stages, and records together.

However, after the release of JT’s debut solo mixtape, City Cinderella, fans believe the beef has picked back up. Continue below for more information.

Do Nicki Minaj And JT Have Beef?

According to the Barbz themselves (Nicki Minaj’s super fans), the answer is yes. For years, Nicki Minaj has found herself at the center of multiple rap feuds (including Lil Kim, Remy Ma, and Cardi B). Due to that, Nicki has tried to keep her dislike for any other rapper private by never mentioning their name publicly.

However, around July 19, Nicki Minaj reportedly began unfollowing fans. Those, who claim to have been unfollowed, speculated that the reason why was due to their support of JT’s City Cinderella mixtape.

The rumor continued to spread after Nicki Minaj held a broadcast on Stationhead. Attendees took Nicki’s vague message as a jab at JT’s previous negative remarks.

“But you also have to question why a person would go from unliking you to loving you,” she said. “Is that odd? Well, you don’t say.”

Neither Nicki Minaj nor JT has confirmed a falling out. So, for now it is all Barbz say, Juvie say.

Even though it has only been a day since JT put out City Cinderella, 24 hours is all we need to realize that she is a certified hitmaker now. While she did have a couple under her belt beforehand with “No Bars” and “OKAY”, seeing how she could carry that streak onto her debut mixtape was an interesting aspect going into the project. It turns out that the Yung Miami’s other half passes that test with flying colors, because JT has another one with “90’s Baby”. For starters, the Miami MC’s confident performance is the biggest reason why this track succeeds.

Here, JT is rapping about how she is essentially the baddest of them all. So much so that, “I’m the b**** he tell where he stash the bricks / I’m the b**** he cop all the rocks and s***“. These are just a couple of the hilariously blunt bars that prove why she has the male gaze on lock. What also makes “90’s Baby” tick is the terrific sample flip and incorporation from Buddah Bless. His producing talents are on full display, as he pitches and speeds up part of the chorus from Joe’s 1997 hit “All The Things (Your Man Won’t Do)”. It ties into the title and the aforementioned theme perfectly. Check out its music video, which is blowing up just as fast as JT.

“90’s Baby”- JT

Quotable Lyrics:

Oh, I know they mad, let’s see who the maddest
These b****es won’t smoke with me ’cause I’m the baddest (Huh?)
F*** him like a rabbit, he pay me in carats
You f*** on your back, b****, that’s why you stagnant, uh
Nineties findin’ b****, I never lose it (Never)
All I gotta do is post a pic, his ex day ruined (P***y h*)

Yung Miami Shows Love To JT After “City Cinderella” Shoutout

by

Today, JT finally unleashed her debut solo mixtape, City Cinderella. The 16-track project has already earned some rave reviews from fans, who think it’s an impressive pivot from her City Girls success. With that being said, the other half of the iconic duo is still very much in the picture, and rooting for her from the sidelines. Recently, Yung Miami took to her Instagram Story to highlight some lyrics from JT’s track “Star Of The Show.” On it, she gives her a shoutout.

“I did it with Caresha, I did it for the city/ Now I’m doin’ it for JT and I know y’all f*ckin’ with me,” she rhymes. Yung Miami added a simple star emoji, making it clear that she appreciates the nod. Fans are glad to see the two artists supporting each other’s solo endeavors, particularly since their friendship hasn’t always been smooth sailing.

Yung Miami Shares JT’s “Star Of The Show” Lyrics

Fortunately for those feeling JT’s new mixtape, it looks like there will be more to come. In her Paper cover story, she clarified that City Cinderella was put together quickly and that it’s not her first real album. “People work on their albums for a year, albums are just different. So City Cinderella is not my first album, being that I made this project so damn fast,” she explained. “I had to create this project throughout the tour and moving around, so I didn’t have time to really nurture and doctor it. This is just something that I’m putting out with my pure instincts.”

Did JT Diss Cardi B On ‘City Cinderella?’

After months of anticipation, JT’s debut solo mixtape, City Cinderella, has hit streaming platforms. Since the disbandment of City Girls, the “Sideways” rapper has endured immense pressure from the public to outdo her work in the culture shifting duo.

Unfortunately, during the transition, JT found herself in a heap of beefs (GloRilla, Sukihana, and Cardi B). So, naturally her super fans, the Juvies, hoped that she would address it on the body of work and that she did. The most notable being toward her former collaborator Cardi B.

Did JT Diss Cardi B On City Cinderella?

The answer to this question is yes, and multiple times, according to fans. Supporters of both ladies have taken to their social media platforms to call out the subtle jabs across the album on tracks “Intro (Hope),” “Servin,” and the project’s single, “Okay.”

On “Intro (Hope),” JT brought up a longstanding rumor about Cardi B’s time as an exotic dancer. Users alleged that Cardi performed a NSFW party trick during one of her shifts with an alcohol bottle. Back in 2018, Cardi B denied the rumors. But that didn’t stop JT from joking about it, rapping:

“Non-rapping b*tch who the f*ck you talking to / I was off in Saks Gucci alligator bags while you was laying on your back and shoving bottles in your ass.”

Then on “Servin,” JT clapped back at Cardi B’s remarks about her fashion sensibilities. Previously, the pair were entangled in a heated exchange on X (formerly Twitter) about JT ripping looks from Cardi B’s past, among other things. She raps on “Servin”:

“I got on sh*t you can’t pronounce, wait, let me spell it out / L-O-E-W-E and I don’t care ’bout the amount / These b*tches into fashion mad ’cause I’m into fashion / Mad I got that sh*t on and they sh*t was in the past tense / Talkin’ ’bout you had that sh*t on in 2017, b*tch, it’s 2024 / And you ain’t got that sh*t no more, hoe / You ain’t got that sh*t no more, hoe / I’m that b*tch, I’m that b*tch, and you can’t stand it, ho.”

Last, on the project’s breakout single, “Okay,” fans caught the shade JT threw about Cardi B cracking her tooth on a hard bagel. Although JT altered the details (which lead to a dust up with Sukihana), the line was supposedly intended to whack Cardi:

“Maserati mami, and the roof missin / She ate crab legs, now her whole tooth missin’ / Cheap-ass veneers, you stay talkin’ sh*t / Put a marker to this b*tch, she’s so counterfeit.”

JT’s “City Cinderella” Is For The Haters & The Self-Confident Girlies

JT is continuing to grow her solo portfolio away from the City Girls with City Cinderella. However, if you enjoy those anti-hater anthems, do not fret. Yung Miami’s other half is providing that and then some for 16 tracks (“Servin”, “JT Coming”, “Star Of The Show”). In addition to that though, we are also getting some background information on what makes JT tick. For example, fans will come to learn that she did not have it easy growing up. It is where she gets her subsequent resilience and confidence just moments later on “Intro (Hope)”. “Thesе are facts, ask the b****es on my block how / I was parked at them stoves with them pieces in my socks / And I’m still hot, in the summer, terry cloth / Made it to the top and I swear I’ll never stop“.

Songs like this help break up some of the monotonous qualities of a tape filled with cuts about that aforementioned self-assurance. However, with those tracks being so well produced and performed, you almost forget about that. Overall, JT presents herself with so much poise and it is why City Cinderella works for what it was set out to accomplish. On top of giving fans this eagerly awaited debut mixtape, JT also has loads of other goodies. One of them is a 20 plus minute documentary, which further delves into the rapper’s solo journey, obstacles, and the rise of the City Girls. Additionally, the Miami, Florida native recently announced the tour surrounding this inaugural solo project. It will kick off on August 20 and will run through September 22.

A post shared by JT☆ (@thegirljt)

For one, it is her second time hitting the road this year alone. This is coming just months after her solo debut set of dates which saw her perform at club venues only. Secondly, JT is dropping her first-ever project as a lead artist. There was a little bit of speculation as to whether or not this would be an EP with about 10 cuts. Those are out the window, as this is a mixtape, and it will include 16 tracks. City Cinderella will hit streaming on July 19 and will feature singles such as “OKAY”, its remix with Jeezy, “No Bars”, and “Sideways”.

What are your thoughts on JT heading out on tour for her solo debut mixtape, City Cinderella? Do you think this is a smart move for the City Girls MC to embark on this journey? What cities should have been added/what should she add? Do you think this project could be the end of her affiliation with Yung Miami?

With summer officially here, JT (Quality Control Music/Motown) aims to top the charts again with her upcoming mixtape, City Cinderella. Set to drop on July 19, City Cinderella marks JT’s debut mixtape as a solo artist. She also revealed the stunning cover art for the 16-track project.

Last week, JT’s momentum peaked when she released the remix of her Hot 100 hit “OKAY” featuring Jeezy. After teasing fans with billboards across Atlanta featuring a Cinderella heel and a snowman, JT and Jeezy’s collaboration has proven to be a fiery and unbeatable combination.

JT has enjoyed an incredible run in 2024, with “OKAY” amassing over 40 million U.S. streams. As one-half of the acclaimed rap group City Girls, JT has solidified her status as a hip-hop powerhouse. Now, as a solo superstar, her swagger and confidence continue to impress, with Billboard naming her one of the hottest female rappers of the moment.

Beyond music, JT’s altruism shines through her JT World Help Foundation, where she partnered with local organizations to donate prom dresses to high school students. She also gifted Miss Florida her 2022 BET Awards dress for this year’s Miss America competition.

Following her successful JT Coming Club Tour, JT will perform at the ESSENCE Festival on the Coca-Cola Stage on July 5 and participate in the ESSENCE Gu’s BeautyCon Panel the following day. Additionally, she was highlighted in Ebony’s Black Music Month Freedom List.
