Tinashé
Tinashe is a contemporary R&B artist with a high level of pop appeal. Having established herself as an actor and model, she made her commercial breakthrough in 2014 with the slinking "2 On," a platinum Top 40 hit collaboration with producer Mustard and guest rapper ScHoolboy Q. This led to a trio of full-length projects for RCA, including Aquarius (2014) and Nightride (2016), both of which went Top Ten R&B/hip-hop. Since her final RCA release, she has starred in the Emmy-nominated Rent: Live and issued the independent albums Songs for You (2019) and 333 (2021). 2023 single "Talk to Me Nice" previewed her EP BB/ANG3L.
Before she made her recorded debut as a solo artist, the singer, songwriter, and producer born Tinashe Jorgensen Kachingwe was known for acting and modeling work. Originally from Lexington, Kentucky, she moved in the early 2000s to Los Angeles, where she established her acting career. Toward the end of that decade, she joined the Stunners, a short-lived teen pop group that recorded for Columbia and Republic and opened for Justin Bieber. After the group's 2011 split, Tinashe went solo with a low-key contemporary R&B direction, released a pair of 2012 mixtapes, and ultimately signed with major-label RCA. In 2013, she collaborated with Jacques Greene on the one-off track "Painted Faces" and released her third mixtape, Black Water, near the end of the year.
Tinashe made her RCA debut and commercial breakthrough in January 2014. The single "2 On," was released that month and reached number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also peaked at number five on the R&B/hip-hop chart and eventually went platinum. Appearances on Erik Hassle's "Innocence Lost" and RZA's "Doctor" followed through that May. Her debut album, Aquarius, landed in October, debuted at number 17, and was given an additional boost from the gold-certified Stargate and Iggy Azalea collaboration "All Hands on Deck." The self-released Amethyst and RCA-issued Nightride mixtapes, along with numerous guest appearances and headlining singles, preceded Tinashe's second proper album. Boasting a guest list that included Offset, Ty Dolla $ign, and Future, Joyride arrived in April 2018 and entered the R&B/hip-hop chart at number 29.
After starring in the Emmy-nominated Rent: Live, Tinashe signed a management deal with Roc Nation and went independent with Songs for You, issued in November 2019. The holiday EP Comfort & Joy followed in 2020. Tinashe then unveiled a slew of singles, including the breezy "Bouncin'" and the Buddy collaboration "Pasadena," before she issued the full-length 333 in 2021. The album's 2022 deluxe edition included the single "Naturally." Tinashe guested on the Calvin Harris single "New to You," along with Offset and Normani, and made additional appearances on songs by Snakehips, Gryffin, Shygirl, and KYLE. "Talk to Me Nice," co-produced by Nosaj Thing and Scoop DeVille, appeared in 2023 as the first single from Tinashe's EP BB/ANG3L.
