excited to hear ! my friend just texted me saying she just played "all hands on deck" for her husband -- i have converted her!

There seems to be a high level of retro-nostalgia for classic Aaliyah/Missy jams in Tinashe's music. Obviously that's not really surprising in itself, but the precision of her reenactment of it seems kinda unique to me.
― MikoMcha, Monday, 25 May 2015 09:41 (nine years ago) link
eh as long as she's not sampling their classics in her songs and trying too hard to capitalize on the public goodwill for them (cough Tink cough) i'm fine with Tinashe taking inspiration from that era, her music sounds pretty of the moment to me.
― some dude, Monday, 25 May 2015 13:52 (nine years ago) link
she created a new moment 4 sure. love hearing Missy's name all over the place again tho

omg i don't think i realized how much legit magnetism and star quality she has
― WE WANT FET WAP (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 4 June 2015 03:41 (nine years ago) link
her Kimmel performance last year was crazy too. seems like most new pop/R&B stars think they can only get good as singing OR dancing onstage, it's refreshing to see someone kill at both.
― some dude, Thursday, 4 June 2015 14:51 (nine years ago) link
shit i need to watch. i am so glad i finally stopped listening to this album though. like it is definitely forever a standby in my collection now, and i will revisit it soon but. i need a step back.
― surm, Thursday, 4 June 2015 15:50 (nine years ago) link
will nicki + tinashe + rae srem + meek mill + dej loaf be the best show i will ever see y/n?

close call
― surm, Monday, 8 June 2015 04:23 (nine years ago) link
I'd travel to see this but I'm afraid it'd be one of those shows where all the openers play a combined 35 minutes, if that
― Evan R, Monday, 8 June 2015 14:49 (nine years ago) link
so pissed off that nicki's US dates get THAT line-up while we got...trey songz
― lex pretend, Monday, 8 June 2015 14:52 (nine years ago) link
Swap Trigga for Nicki and the U.S. bill is pretty much my dream lineup tbh
― Evan R, Monday, 8 June 2015 14:57 (nine years ago) link
nicki was actually incredible, so much tighter and with a much greater command over her show than her last tour
trey songz exists at a permanent 3/5 level

welp I was supposed to see Tinashe last night opening for Nicki but we fucking missed her bcz my friends who I invited at the last minute ran late and then INSISTED we go to a bar first once we got to the venue
― Y Kant Max Read (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 7 August 2015 13:49 (nine years ago) link
and then got inside the venue and INSISTED we wait half an hour in line to get wristbands to drink more

single "Party Favors" out next week
― Number None, Wednesday, 2 September 2015 19:17 (nine years ago) link
It's obvious she really wants to break through on charts and airplay judging by the interviews saying this album will be less experimental, max martin collab etc. Although that clip doesn't really suggest that. I'm happy with her output this year anyway w the GOAT mixtape, so an album of bangers or whatever else wouldn't be too bad.
― abcfsk, Wednesday, 2 September 2015 19:55 (nine years ago) link
still so pissed that my friends fucked up my plans to see her open for Nicki BUT she will inevitably tour for this and I will def go see it even if it means going to another city

I can't quite place the MIDI riff and it's driving me nuts. Is it from an old video game?
― Evan R, Wednesday, 9 September 2015 20:08 (nine years ago) link
boards of canada on the beat ho
idk how i feel about this, pleased not captivated without knowing what i would have rly wanted
guess as she manifestly has all the strings to her bow you expect perfect execution, so hitting any target squarely whether it's max martin or the twigsy vibez here maybe isn't enough for someone with the rare potential to cut diagonally
communicating her essential unifying trademark on whatever it is she does is the elusive next step, the janet auteur thing i guess, and this seems (kinda perversely) a bit less idiosyncratic and so perhaps a tiny step back from the amethyst ep in that regard

This is alright. I lost interest after a couple minutes, and I heard it twice.

I've had this on repeat since it dropped, lol. I have no idea where all this resistance is coming from.

'2 on' updated for xans n sprite n concomitant feels isnt really such a shocker business wise
personally aesthetically, sure this song is dull in comparison
prolly there's a couple chopped lines of thinkpiece white on the glass table about how wastedness sits on her as opposed to the predatory boys (illangelo on the credits fyi), is the "loss" of control as egotistic, does the favour presentation seem as manipulative, or is it servile, or equal, or equal for the sake of being equal
