Formerly known as HoodCelebrityy, Jamaican-born, Bronx-raised artist TINA is officially entering a new chapter with the release of her self-titled debut album, TINA.
Last week Tina FKA Hoodcelebrityy celebrated her birthday with a single release party for her latest drop “‘YKTV'” at the DL Rooftop. The night was filled with fans, influencers and industry elite who all gathered to support Tina. Industry legends like celebrity photographer Johnny Nunez were in attendance and made sure to capture all the unforgettable moments throughout the evening.
Halfway through the night Tina even gave a performance with hits like “Walking Trophy.” It was truly one of the best live performances we’ve seen in a while. Tina not only reminded us why she’s that girl, but she also put on an amazing show and even jumped in the crowd to dance with some of her lovely female fans. Not to mention she slayed in her denim two-piece and showed off her amazing abs and dance moves while serenading the crowd.
Not only did Tina work with Cardi B early on in her career, she solidified herself as a bonafide star when she blessed the world with “Walking Trophy” which currently sits at over 30 million Spotify streams alone. “Bum Pon It” and “Run Di Road” have also accumulated over 7 and 6 million Spotify streams respectively and now Tina is back with her latest single “YKTV.”
Daniel J. Watts—who is currently playing Ike Turner on Broadway —presented The Jam: Only Child at The Public Theater & Joe’s Pub on Monday, January 6.
Besides being recently seen on television on shows such as “The Last OG” as well as Amazon’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” Daniel J. Watts can now been seen on Broadway as Ike Turner in Tina: the Musical. Watts who is no stranger to the stage chatted with The Knockturnal about stepping into Turner’s controversial shoes.
First things first: Adrienne Warren is a powerhouse that is grounded in emotion with a state-of-the-art delivery as she embodies Tina Turner on Broadway.
