One of the music industry’s most promising acts, Tinashe, has took advantage of the momentum that her debut album, Aquarius, has brought forth for her. Gaining the attention of millions with her smash sing, ‘2 On’, hitting the road with a solo tour along with supporting Nicki Minaj during “The Pinkprint Tour”, Tinashe has kept busy and has remained persistent in keeping her face out there. As busy as she’s been, this hasn’t stopped the beauty from recording the follow-up to her debut album. Tentatively set for a November release, peep further details about the singer’s second studio LP, below.
Tinashe’s new music plays across genres, going dance-pop on Martin’s “Player”; ratchet on “Joyride,” produced by Hit-Boy and Travis Scott; and hip-hop on substance-praising anthem “Party Favors,” by Boi-1da. Joel Compass (FKA Twigs) assists on the sensual “Fire and Flames,” while Nic Nac (Chris Brown, Tyga) and indie fave Dev Hynes follow up their smoldering Aquarius contributions. Now all Tinashe needs, she says, is for RCA to catch up to her work ethic.
“There’s politics involved in everything. It’s about them getting it together to master my schedule. The old rules of ‘we need to work this album for the next two years’ don’t apply anymore.”
In a day and age where music is consumed and digested at rapid pace, the ‘All Hands On Deck’ hit-maker makes a valid point about not pushing an album’s campaign on for two years or more. Some acts, like Rihanna, have seemed to get that memo early on in their career and Tinashe is following suit. Working with the best of the best and crafting up a batch of hits, thing are shaping up smoothly as the singer is set to release her brand new single relatively soon.
