How Tinashe Escaped Music Industry Purgatory and Crafted a Hit With “Nasty”

[@hugoocampo7393]

She's NEXT LEVEL, not in a box. Artistry outside boundaries. In MVs / Vocals / Production/ Choreo etc. There is a concept deeper. Gotta respect and love talent 🔥 she's IT 💯

[@Glorubenn]

See the thing with tinashe is she was born for this ❤

[@AckzaTV]

Her last name is literally "kaching-way" like which way? Cash register way

[@BINYUGUO]

[@gregorygray5768]

The way she keeps going and never gave up despite the industry politics and RCA holding her back

[@HanaRosePrevious]

And doesn’t hold bitterness to those challenges and experiences with the label, she’s a true alchemist

[@gregorygray5768]

@@HanaRosePrevious yes 🙌 I think everyone could learn from her

[@christinebelzie194]

I think Tinashe being Indie and having a core fanbase pre-RCA played a huge role in her maintaining her popularity after leaving the label too.

[@cevstyles]

This was such a good interview

[@TheDoknoh]

Thanks!

[@Rayaann]

I love Tinashe! Constantly pushing the boundaries sonically and she’s such a unique presence in the music industry! I’ll always be a Tinashe fan and I’m so proud of her!

[@sonicandroxas]

Real af. I see why I deem her one of my favs

[@QuantumBB]

Tinashe is one of the most inspiring people on this planet and nothing will get her down from accomplishing and showing what she was put on this earth to do! A true icon in the making … I just think about her idols Janet Jackson and Britney Spears and how they have and continue to inspire people and fans and their music is still timeless and bumping to this day just like Tinashe’s discography! Going independent and making her voice heard louder than it ever has been before is so beautiful to watch in real time and I’m so glad to be on this journey as a day 1 sweetee !!! we here for life girl !!!! Nobody stopping what we can achieve… Love you Nashe and keep on going 333 … we on the right track!!! 💐👀😉

[@annamirzajanczy7624]

Nashe 🖤🫶

[@nicolle2609]

NightRide is her best album after her mixtape! Love love love her vibes

[@stmn7286]

As the Legend Mariah Carey once said, "You cannot write off talent." This couldn't be truer for Tinashe!

[@SirCentex]

She is a certified superstar! Saw her perform live in St.Louis 5 years ago and she made me a fan. So happy to see her paving a path of her own 👏🏾

[@neXtCavalier]

Love Tinashe so much. She's such an inspiration and on the mood boards for so many other artists 🔥

[@decamposgustavo]

Ive been a fan of hers since 2 on and my favorite music from her are exactly the self released ones. x, save room for us, needs, i can see the future, die a little bit, bouncin. the girl is a genius. i hope she never give up on her music career.

[@zetta1985]

She won’t. We are so lucky ❤

[@CameronCooley-bb9qn]

For all the people saying they got into tinashe with 2on PLZZZZZZ GO STREAM HER MIXTAPEEEEEEEESSS THEY DONT DISAPPOINT!!!!! THERES 4 OF THEM!

[@FirstLast-dy4gt]

📣

[@intentionallymade]

There’s something about how she speaks that reminds me of Simone biles. Just very professional and well Spoken and confident. ❤

[@mattflashh8119]

Queen!!!! Finally getting her flowers 💐💐💐

[@marianar2948]

Tinashe is so confident and strong, hearing her open up about her trials and erros always inspires me! Also I really enjoy the editing style of this video, it had the most interesting angles/cuts without undermining the pace of the interview... great job!

[@Marzellus1991]

Been following her journey for over a decade, shes come a long way in creativity and innovative music

[@ZB-esque]

SHE DOES HAVE A LOYAL FAN BASE. We love herrrrr.

[@AH-gn9bp]

I will always support Tinashe bc I just love her, but it’s a shame she doesn’t get more recognition because she really was at the forefront of DIY & has a strong work ethic. Her journey reminds me of Mya…. both have found success & freedom in becoming independent

[@annamirzajanczy7624]

I kind of like that she's not overly recognized... but it's very selfish of me. I went through a tinashe obsession when I came across her. I don't have many artist awakenings. I love music videos and watching her talent as a dancer. She's a real creative and that's why I identify and admire her work. I hate record labels. The only actual music platform I use is SoundCloud

[@amenakofi3317]

I've never seen her be this open in a video interview before

[@mitchiehewer]

Mmm...yes, something about this feels very different. I've watched basically every interview she's ever done and this just feels SO different in the best way possible

[@annamirzajanczy7624]

Maybe because she's not being controlled anymore

[@annamirzajanczy7624]

Leaving the machine

[@skinnylegend8324]

one of THEE best live performers right now. and her projects are so diverse creative and deep. one of one

[@DCB09]

We love Tinashe 👑🙏🏾😊❤️

[@Yesyou_]

You love someone you never met before you’re weird

[@sonicandroxas]

​@Yesyou_ typical complex toxicity coming out I see

[@serenity__now]

She's just so effortlessly cool. And super inspiring, this was great

[@MarvillousBeats]

This was good. Really good! 🔥✨️

[@Exia_44]

She still looks the same! 😍

[@luishp3]

Nah, she looks better now. 😍

[@sugahobi2329]

she is so inspiring. thank you so much for this interview. you can tell how much this was conducted with respect for her, her artistry, and her fans.

[@xatreason]

yes!

[@Beatsbyend]

Such an amazing interview and so happy for Tinashe! One of my goals as a producer is to work with her someday ⚡️⚡️⚡️

[@jeffreyretana3558]

I love you Tinashe. I’m one of your biggest fans. Your music is amazing and it speaks to me. You’re so inspiring. You give me the strength to keep going. Thank you 🙏

[@redluv123]

[@namix9526]

one of the best interviews I have seen

[@TaVonya]

Probably the BEST Tinashe interview out there! 🙌🏾🥰✨

[@chris_basco]

I am so in awe of Tinashe! She is such a force to be reckoned with! She’s so young yet so mature & a veteran!!! Team Nashe forever 💯

[@r4ultra]

Tinashe deserves her flowers now! ❤

[@pedrx_v9323]

It feels good as a fan hearing her on the radio getting played again!! 💚

[@AlexGervacio33]

I attended Tinashe’s 333 Tour twice! That being said, she’s worth every single dollar!! She’s up there with Beyoncé. Absolutely. The choreography is on point and she’s got TONS of stage presence. ✨✨✨

[@annamirzajanczy7624]

Well that's because she's a professional level dancer. It's not like faked on stage ...she's better than her dancers

[@malungamusic]

Love these kinda interviews

[@benjitomlinsonx]

I cant explain how I feel bewing a Tinashe fan, i feel like im ROUTING for her, and I feel like i wiont stop supporting her until she gets her flowers. were not even half way to what she deserves!

[@ajnovamusic]

Producer: "Hey do you mind if we get a few close up shots?" Tinashe: "No go ahead" Producer: "No like.. Really close up?" Tinashe: "..um" Producer: 14:00

[@abroadstateofmind5571]

I remember in 09 I was on this bootleg movie website and her video came up as an ad. I was hooked ever since!

I have been a fan since 2 on-- and would listen & dance to every one of her albums (no misses) over and over again this past decade... she is even better singing LIVE than on her albums I promise you this lady has been my queen forever 😭😭😭 so proud of her getting her flowers lately and me finally getting to watch all these high quality interviews of her

[@thebluebeyond2329]

Lord l haven't listened to her since high school 😮. She is incredible well spoken person. Love the lessons as well ❤.

Tinashe is an inspiration. I’m starting my home studio

[@MalayaJ]

Tinashe is the only artist im a true fan of.

[@ramonsoria]

She’s untouchable and so underrated - she will even admit that. Her music is way beyond its time and her sound is absolutely unique. She can sing, dance, and an inspiration for those who should go the independent route.

[@erronellan]

Queen Nashe !! The Most Talented!!

[@upleash8319]

congratulations you deserve all the success coming your way

I hope Complex issued a good ol apology to Tinashe for that messed up article they wrote about her. This video is a cute but "I'm sorry" goes a long way

Fine asl 🔥

TINASHE IS AMAZING love this queen ✋🏻✋🏻✋🏻✋🏻

[@artvision2175]

I'm happy for her!!!

[@AckzaTV]

She simply compromised and made her unique music more pop with "nasty", and revealed how influential she's always been.

[@Ebhaves]

She’s one of my top female favorite artist ✨💕

Tinashe. Release Nightride physically.

[@jxyjxy456]

unfortunately she can’t due to her previous label rca

[@stevenreynolds6697]

I believe you have great talent! I'm for you! ❤️

[@DeBlauweOlifant]

ill never understand labels signing artists and then holding them back. A gap of 4 years between albums is also hurting their own investment.

[@actweetS]

She is an experttt

[@maloneaqua]

[@pSmurf954]

She is underrated.
