Embodying her pioneering spirit, WHIPPED CREAM leads the way in creating cinematic soundscapes that portray powerful narratives, mesmerize music enthusiasts, and are destined for the big screen. Bringing her music to life in music videos, such as “The Dark” with Jasiah and Crimson Child, has led WHIPPED CREAM to a BOLD Award win at CIMA (Canadian Independent Music Association) Awards, a premiere at VIFF (Vancouver International Film Festival), and a showcase at SXSW’s XR Experience Competition in Austin. “The Dark” music video was also the world’s highest-resolution volumetric VR music experience at the time, revolutionizing the future of audiovisual content.
In the live space, WHIPPED CREAM has commanded stages all around the world. From playing Coachella two years in a row, taking over festivals like Lollapalooza and EDC Las Vegas, and selling out venues including Meow Wolf in Denver and The Rink Studios in Sacramento. Not only has she gone viral with DJ Diesel (aka Shaquille O’Neal) (3.1M views) and by showcasing her DJ skills (3.5M), but she’s found herself on Spotify and Amazon’s physical billboards and has been featured by Forbes, DJ Mag (cover), Pollstar, and more.
Working alongside artists like BKAYE, Showjoe, Trent Madison, and Sjayy on the 7-track project underscores the evolution of WHIPPED CREAM’s music by blending electronic and hip-hop genres to forge an innovative sound. With ‘is this real?’ she enriches her striking soundscapes while conveying poignant messages, encouraging listeners to find peace in life’s present moments, even amidst feeling lost. This package marks a pivotal chapter for WHIPPED CREAM, unveiling her deepest emotions and exploring uncharted territories she had yet to personally confront. Introducing a new era of WHIPPED CREAM, she hones deeper into house and club tempos, showcased in tracks like “real 4 me” with BKAYE – an anthem destined to be repeated at clubs and festivals throughout the summer.
WHIPPED CREAM shares, “‘is this real?’ is a project I wrote in and through the darkest time of my life as I held hope for better days. I think many times people ask themselves in good or bad situations, “Is this really happening? Is this really my life?” During that dark point I had to find all the blessings in my life and hold on tight, know that God had the best intentions for me, and that everything was happening for a reason. I look back right now to a year ago from today and see how much life has shifted so much into what I had hoped for. Although a lot of the lyrics and sonics are about my love relationships it means so much more than that to me; this project was made at such a pivotal point in my life. I want this project to stand for risk taking, holding on, and melancholic distance, beauty in pain.”
WHIPPED CREAM has just announced her highly anticipated ‘is this real?’ headline tour set to take her to over 19 cities, with more dates to be revealed soon. She will be performing in major cities such as Toronto, Los Angeles, and Chicago in venues bigger than before, and festivals including Same Same But Different, Bass Camp, and Sziget Festival, showcasing the ever-growing demand of her music and stage presence.
