Tinashe – Songs For You

[djea92]

Player is 3 years old and had the most boring hook ever. No Drama, Faded Love, Me So Bad. None of the flops from years past are going on this.

[Deleted]

I'm still pressed that Player & Superlove flopped

Player was a total jam, with and without Chris. PLUS THAT MUSIC VIDEO OOOOOOOOOOF

And Superlove was a total summer ready beach anthem also with a flawless video



Even if she is cursed to flop for life, she delivers them VISUALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm also still pressed Slumber Party flopped even if Tinashe's parts were minimal

[Zinc.]

Plus, Me So Bad rumored to be released as well.

I certainly hope there is a deluxe edition with more new tracks, at least digitally, because a three year wait for an album with 10 full tracks... really?

Also, didn't Rih steal the song "Joyride" out from under her or was that just a rumor?

It ended up being returned and Tinashe said it'd be on the album rather recently.

YES!

But which of the 20 songs she's released over the past two years are going to make the tracklist?

Hopefully not Hooklesslove.

[thezatch]

What a lackluster back cover. With such a visually appealing album cover, they go the Britney Jean route with the back. At least everything is spelled rite.

Also thanks for confirming that "Joyride" came back to her, Glove Slap. I liked the version that leaked last year but could imagine Rih on it too due to T's vocals during the verses.

THIS would’ve made a great back cover.

[🇯🇲 dollybaby 🇯🇲]

It's about time this album has a release date!!

[thezatch]

“Me So Bad” is my favorite of the new tracks so far. An absolute BOP. I hope the album brings more heat like that.

[Ty]

She's 3/3 for me with these pre-released BOPs. Sad how "No Drama" tanked.

[Ivy Leegue™]

If she is going to chase pop at all, let it be with a song like Me So Bad. COME GET THIS BOOOOODY! This song is catchy AF. I like everything from this project so far.

[Keelzit]

Me So Bad is the first post-Aquarius single of hers that sounds like a hit and I don't even like it that much. The video is great too. Get it Tina!

[Zinc.]

Schedule to perform on Good Morning America this Friday.

[nightshade]

GET THAT PROMO TEE!!!!!

[Exclusive]

I know No Drama is still climbing rhythmic, but I wish they would push Me So Bad

[Deleted]

Honestly
Tinashe needs another Chainless or Vulnerbale level track in her life

R&B Triple Threat Tinashe Hits Her Stride on New Album Joyride


When Tinashe’s pants ripped as she was stretching before an invite-only February show in Brooklyn, there was no time to fix the split seam. “I ended up wearing the sweats I was wearing on the airplane,” she says, laughing. She went on to perform a high-octane, hour-long set to a small crowd of fans, dancing and singing to sinuous pop-R&B tunes like the single “No Drama,” taken from her new album, Joyride. No one blinked an eye at her choice of apparel; she sold the look. At 25, Tinashe is a pro at dealing with curveballs. She’s had to be. “There’s no Plan B,” she says.

Tinashe has been in the trenches as a working artist for a decade. She’s banking on Joyride (out April 13) to clarify her position as a full-package urban pop artist in the mold of Janet Jackson. She writes. She sings. She dances. She transcends genre. Yet despite her prescience and hard work, the limelight has so far remained frustratingly elusive.

Born Tinashe Jorgensen Kachingwe to college professors—her father is from Zimbabwe, and her mother hails from the Midwest—she started on the California audition circuit when she was just 6. By 15, she tested out of high school and joined a girl group called the Stunners. Tinashe never intended to be in a group, but the Stunners snagged a prime gig as tour openers for Justin Bieber, who was then a rising star. Perks included time spent learning the ropes of the recording studio; quickly, she signed a solo deal with RCA.

In 2014, her track “2 On” with Schoolboy Q, taken from her debut album, soundtracked dance floors, earned platinum status and had some suggesting that she could be the next Aaliyah. But Tinashe didn’t follow it up with more mainstream singles; instead, she released two vibey mixtapes of self-produced, futuristic R&B. Her label couldn’t figure out how to classify her music, and even her fans wanted her to be someone she wasn’t. “I don’t like being told what to do,” Tinashe says. “It’s easy for people to marginalize you—if they hear you do a certain type of song, they expect that from you every time. But that’s so boring!” In a market crowded with young female artists, the ultimate challenge is how to evolve as a voice without losing your fan base along the way.

After teasing an album release that never materialized in late 2016, Tinashe was left embarrassed. “They were looking at me as a failure,” she says of the public. Yet she also wasn’t ready to accept defeat. Until then, she had lived at her parents’ suburban Los Angeles home, writing and recording in her childhood bedroom. Finally, she was ready to strike out on her own.

So Tinashe rented a house in the Hollywood Hills, establishing a creative sanctuary and hangout spot for other artists and friends to make music. She hosted Taco Tuesdays, she went clubbing, she painted at an easel. In other words, she lived life outside of the intense focus that came with being a child star and music-industry stalwart—and she wrote about it candidly.

Out of that newfound freedom came Joyride, a slinky, triumphant album that is as self-assured as it is vulnerable. Tracks like “He Don’t Want It” conjure a late-night reverie, echoing with floating falsettos. In “Salt,” she drops into a lower register, letting her voice fill with a rich, bluesy strain of regret. And then there’s the light and infectious “Stuck With Me,” with Swedish electronic group Little Dragon. “I’m a train wreck, I’m a car crash,” she sings sweetly. “Get an ice pack for the weekend, ’cause you’re stuck with me.”

For Tinashe, Joyride is a statement of purpose. “I’m a fighter and a warrior and I’m here,” she says. “And it’s not an accident that I’m here.” Wardrobe malfunctions and all, she’s ready for the spotlight. “To me, it’s not a matter of if,” she says. “It’s a matter of when.”

This album is about to flop so hard but I'm glad it's finally being released. For it to be so short, I hope it's cohesive.

[aussie1]

She had momentum (sort of) when superlove came out. RCA seem to have no idea about what to do with this girl, she has got it all, the looks, the voice and the moves but yet she can't get a hit. I was really excited for this project like two years ago but with this coming out this week I couldn't care less and I blame the label for that. I might listen to it over the weekend though.

[thezatch]

$7.99 at Target. That's where I'll be swooping through when they open at 8 am.

I wish there was a Target or Best Buy Exclusive with bonus tracks or something. At this point though, I'll just make my own. I'm thankful it's being released at all.

[Ivy Leegue™]

Nice. Hopefully, my local Harlem actually carries it, because that's a great price!

[Ty]

This era already feels like it's over before the release date. She coulda been much better had she stick to the musical style in her debut/mixtapes.

But I do appreciate the fact that she has offered so many expensive, well-crafted visuals. Those are something only a big label could afford.

[Keelzit]

There's nothing wrong with going a more mainstream route in hopes of getting more coins but a part of me wants to believe that her label was mostly behind this whole failed transition of hers from a niche artist to a more marketable one. I'm happy we're finally getting the album but I wonder what this 'let's move on' notion actually means. Move on from what exactly? The Joyride of 2016 probably sounded nothing than the one we'll get on Friday so she/her label have already 'moved on' from it a long time ago.
