Listening to the album and I'm REALLY not getting y'all's obsession. It's good but not THAT good. Production doesn't have that special something and her voice is so... uninteresting.

 

The chorus of 'All Hands on Deck' is stunning though. THE FLUTE YASSSSSSSSS *.*

THIS ALBUM IS THE SPAWN OF ALL THAT IS HOLY

I can get you having a different opinion, but denying the album's production and her VOICE!? No way.

Just wait a couple of weeks/days/hours/minutes and he'll be won over and bowing at her feet like the rest of us I swearrr

 

:D

 

'Bet' is quickly becoming one of my favourites (not sure it's possible to have favourites when they're all pretty much perf but never mind), wasn't that taken with it on first listen but now I can't get enough. Dev Hynes bringing it as always.

 

Also, she's been confirmed to appear on Calvin Harris' new album. Yesss.

The 4 songs from the album? Huh? You really need to listen to this the whole way through, from start to finish imo.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

 

I have to go. Like, HAVE TO. <3 No one will go with me though! Eek.

New York Times Critic Praises Tinashe, Says '2 On' Singer Is Coming For Beyoncé's Spot, Throws Shade At Jhené Aiko

Following the success of her summer single "2 On," Tinashe may be one of the most sought after upcoming R&B singers, at least that what the folks over at the New York Times think. Reporter Jon Caramanica recently reviewed her forthcoming debut album, and in the process he made some bold comments regarding Beyoncé and even threw shade at Jhené Aiko.

 

It's stunning how in recent years mainstream female R&B has effectively been distilled down to one word: Beyoncé. Yes, there is Rihanna, who has always been more of a pop-minded singer than one inheriting and repackaging soul values, and also Ariana Grande, who is a classic R&B singer hiding out in arena pop. And there are flashes in the pan like Jhené Aiko.

 

He goes on to critic Tinashe in comparison to her female R&B counterparts, which Caramanica insists won't be a threat to the young songstress' success. Apparently, not even Beyoncé will be able to fight her off, unless she releases some new music.

 

That leaves an open lane for Tinashe, then. Factor out Beyoncé and also Rita Ora, who sings the tempestuous hook on Iggy Azalea's "Black Widow," and there's not a single female R&B singer on the most recent Billboard hot R&B/hip-hop songs chart besides Tinashe, who appears both for the extremely durable "2 On" and for guesting on the Kid Ink song "Body Language." Soon, the singles from Beyoncé's most recent album will have come and gone. There will be no one to shout Tinashe down.

 

Oh yeah, and one more jab at Aiko, who recently released her debut Souled Out: "The underwhelming Ms. Aiko rarely sounds awake when she sings, and has found success that way."

Probably a bit behind the hype but could someone send me a linky link? Need to see what Tinashe is all about bar 2 On...
why the need to slate other artists? her and jhene make a nice wave together as far as I'm concerned

OMG. I love her but "The underwhelming Ms. Aiko rarely sounds awake when she sings, and has found success that way." DragT http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/a3425585.gif

 

 

(yasss klumzee, it's coming - i will get you 2 ON her before i'm done with you~)

POP

24 +1 TINASHE 2 On f/Schoolboy Q 3914 +65 128 +16 21.543 +0.428 73

 

Still gaining on pop while 'Pretend' doesn't seem to be going anywhere, not even on Rhythmic where '2 On' was #1 for 4 weeks :(

The Best Buy bonus track 'Watch Me Work' is a bit of a #banger :heart:

 

WERK

 

Her voice reminds me of Rihanna's in parts of this!
