NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts have brought performances from across the country and the world since transitioning to virtual shows. Recently, from Hilltop Coffee + Kitchen in Inglewood, California, a special Insecure Tiny Desk takeover featured artists B.K. Habermehl, Nnena, and TeaMarrr, with backing from L.A.'s 1500 or Nothin'. The collaboration ties into Insecure, an acclaimed American comedy-drama TV series created by Issa Rae and Larry Wilmore, known for its portrayal of contemporary African-American experiences. Insecure has received critical acclaim since its 2016 debut, earning Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for its cast and creators.

The Tiny Desk concert showcased a total Los Angeles vibe, reflecting the essence of Insecure and its connection to the local scene. The performance resonated with fans of the show and NPR's music enthusiasts alike, bringing a mix of talent and storytelling to the forefront. Through this event, the spirit of stripped-down sets and intimate musical experiences continued, despite the shift to virtual platforms due to the pandemic.
