I know that the album has been released, but please tell @Tinashe to make "Treason" a video and drop this as a single. It's different, and it feels a bit country. 💯📈

Victoria Monet finally got her flowers in 2023-2024. Now it's time for Tinashe to get hers. This woman's musicality, like Victoria's is just so distinct and beautiful. (And I'm still mad about "Songs For You" not getting the love it deserves as one of the best albums of 2019.) Tinashe's time is coming sooner rather than later and I'm here for it! Thank you Tiny Desk for having her and starting to place people in Tinashe's time zone 😎🙌🏾

One of my favorite things about these concerts is getting to watch the musicians be absolutely in love with the music they are making. You can tell they are all just feeling it!

[@jfksblackbook2635]

Really impressed with how well she transitioned some of these songs to a live crowd with more of a acoustic vibe. Great artist and her looks my god.

[@comicthrill]

I've always been kind of amused by the way multiple musicians and instruments can be shoehorned into the Tiny Desk performance space. Now, I love to see this, a set from our girl Tinashe accompanied by multiple musicians treating us to ballads mostly

i saw Tinashe live on valentines day and her voice was so incredible! her mic was on!

[@xswooshx]

Truth! Singers sound so much better with a working microphone than without one! It's so hard for an artist to convey the power and emotion of a song with a dead microphone, so we should also give a shout out to the equipment crew for keeping that mic fully charged and available.

[@briebrie5209]

She must be stunning and lovely to hear her sing live.

[@mg682]

Treason is one of the best opening tracks I've heard in a while. I hope someday she has her own personal acoustic concert or EP or album even. This was great, and also awesome she plays vibraphone (percussion squad 🥁). My only complaint is that it was too short!
