Tempest and Amindi Head to the Wild West in "The Ranch"
Smooth and scrumptious, Long Beach native Tempest marks her alt R&B territory with âThe Ranch,â featuring fellow it girl Amindi.
The self-produced title track to her upcoming debut EP, âThe Ranchâ is a seemingly effortless flex as Tempest sexifies nonchalance. She doesnât belong to her lover, nor does her lover belong to her, but you best believe heâs on call. Lines like âThatâs not my baby and Iâm not his either / Itâs just a pain relieverâ anchor the track, as Tempest galavants with all the power in between her acrylics.
With the Abdi Ibrahim-directed video set in a hot girl Wild West, Tempest and Amindi go verse for verse while stunning in palpable confidence and the boldness of their youth. They both are exactly who they think they are, two of the new alternative R&B generationâs most coveted names. Riding the cowgirl reclamation wave, theyâve infused it with their own charisma to innovate something totally new, as Black girls most notably do.
A West Coast sound that infuses influences from her fatherâs DJ roots from the Bronx, "The Ranch" is set to solidify Tempestâs rightful place on the map. Sheâs an eclectic songstress with no fear of being herself, and thatâs the ticket to her promised success.
