Tinashe Gets “Nasty” With Chloe & Tyga On Two Extra Remixes Of Her Hit Single

by

Tinashe has been in the music industry for the better part of a decade now. While she did have a couple of songs that got her some attention early on (“2 On” “All My Friends”), it seems that things are different now. We mean that in the best way possible, as it seems her newer output is keeping listeners around this time. She has been impressing the critics as well, especially with her last project, BB/ANG3L. We continue to revisit tracks like “Treason”, “Talk To Me Nice”, and “Needs”. However, Tinashe now appears to have the greatest hit of her career so far with “Nasty” as now it’s getting remix after remix.

In June, the Lexington Kentucky native put out a collection of new versions under the Match My Freak EP moniker. It includes the original version in addition to another six renditions, with all of them featuring different DJs. However, there are two new big-ticket features that Tinashe added to this EP, and those are Tyga and Chloe, aka Chloe Bailey. Both of their verses replace the lead artist’s second and each one is about 20 seconds shorter. These remixes for “Nasty” are just loosies, as the first version and “Getting No Sleep” are the singles for Tinashe’s August 16 LP, Quantum Baby. Still, give these new options a spin below.

“Nasty XXX Remix” & “Nasty Girl Remix”- Tinashe, Tyga, & Chloe

Quotable Lyrics From “Nasty Girl Remix”:

Is somebody gonna match my freak?
Touch my body ’til my knees turn weak
You ain’t even gotta ask me, ask me
You know I’m down seven days of the week (Yeah)
I can tell you wanna touch my— (Uh, match my freak)
Lick my— (Uh), kiss my— (Uh, oh-oh, match my freak)

Tinashe Finally Finds Someone To ‘Match My Freak’ On Her ‘Nasty Girl Remix’ Featuring Chlöe

Tinashe’s new song “Nasty” is a runaway hit — the kind that has her former record label, RCA, “gagging” after dropping the ball on supporting the genreless singer’s career. However, now that Tinashe is in full control of her creative direction, she isn’t letting a single opportunity slip by.

Enter the “Nasty” remix, featuring none other than fellow ostensible pop-R&B star Chlöe, who teased the song a few days ago while introducing her social media followers to her Carnival costumes for this year’s festivities. On “Nasty,” Tinashe wonders, “Is somebody gonna match my freak?” On the remix, Chlöe answers in the affirmative, applying the same unreserved energy she exhibited on songs like “Have Mercy” and “Treat Me” to the subject at hand. Chlöe affects a skittering delivery just short of straight up rapping as she sings, “Hey, big daddy, is it big enough, deep enough? / Freak enough, can I get a little, little piece of ya?” Listen to it below:

The remix is part of a collection of remixes Tinashe released tonight as an EP, Match My Freak, including remixes by Kaytranada, OG Ron C & DJ Candlestick, and more. Another remix features a verse from Tyga, which you can also listen to below.

Meanwhile, Tinashe’s album, Quantum Baby, is out 8/16 via Nice Life. Find more information here.

Chlöe Showed Off Her Carnival Costume With A Video Teasing A Seductive Remix Of ‘Tinashe’s ‘Nasty’

If, like me, you have been completely incapable of escaping Tinashe’s admittedly catchy single “Nasty” for the past few weeks, you’d best batten down your hatches, because its shelf life is about to get extended greatly. Chlöe, another pop-R&B star who has defied categorization for most of her career and developed a bit of a reputation for showing off an unexpectedly seductive side, teased a remix of the song in a new video posted to social media.

In signature fashion, Chlöe paired the tantalizing teaser with an equally eye-catching visual, giving fans an early glimpse of the second of this year’s Carnival costumes. You may recall that last year’s costume caused quite the fuss online as she attended her first mas in St. Lucia. This year, she donned two separate costumes; one featuring an absolute riot of rainbow colors, the other, an aqua-and-gold mesh bodysuit. Check out pics of both below.

Even Tinashe couldn’t help boasting a bit about “Nasty”‘s success, telling a reporter during a street interview that her old label, RCA, is “gagging” as a result of dropping the ball while promoting her career. She’s since gone independent and with her upcoming album Quantum Baby on the way, it doesn’t seem they’ll be getting over it any time soon.

Tinashe Capitalizes On The Hype Surrounding “Nasty” With “Match My Freak EP”

by

Lexington, Kentucky native Tinashe was struggling for quite a while to really breakthrough as a memorable standout. Even though the now independent artist had her fair share of hits early on, she was more of a backup singer rather than the main act if you will. However, the veteran has really come into her own with her last two albums and singles. The three-year run has consisted of mix of experimental, personal, and fun R&B jams, really providing something for everyone. One of those highlights for the songwriter has been “Nasty”. It has been so big for Tinashe that she decided to drop a new EP called Match My Freak.

On this six-track set, the 31-year-old is bringing the original Billboard Hot 100-charting smash, as well as five fresh remixes. Whether you want more danceable grooves, or slow-mo vibes, Tinashe has got you covered. To help bring all of these versions to life, she recruited DJ Tunez, Wuki, UNIIQU3, Jane Remover, OG Ron C, and DJ Candlestick. Going back to the impact of “Nasty”, the April 12 release has been on the Hot 100 list for just two weeks. However, after making its way into elite company, it catapulted from 90 to 69 over the last seven days. Additionally, the sticky lyric of, “Is somebody gonna match my freak?“, has created a new trend on social media which you can view below.

Tinashe’s ‘Nasty’ Is A Hit And She Reckons Her Former Label Is ‘Gagging’ Over It

by
Tinashe Lollapalooza 2022

After starting her career on RCA Records, Tinashe has gone the independent route for her latest releases. It’s working out pretty well, too: Her latest single, “Nasty,” is a TikTok favorite and one of the biggest hits of her career. Tinashe’s RCA years were filled with conflict, so she doesn’t seem to mind rubbing her success in their faces a little bit.

As a recent video shows, Tinashe was asked by a reporter, “Do you feel like RCA kind of dropped the ball when you were on their label? Because they couldn’t do it? You did it by yourself.” Tinashe responded, “You know? We just didn’t need them. All you need is hard work, good fans, talent. I know they’re gagging.”

The cameraperson also asked about what Tinashe has on the horizon, and she teased new music, remixes, a tour, and her upcoming album (she said BB/Angel, her 2023 project, but presumably misspoke and meant her upcoming album Quantum Baby).

Tinashe has previously spoken about her dissatisfaction with RCA, saying in a 2019 Billboard interview, “There were definitely ups and downs. I give them a lot of credit for helping me start out. […] My second album process just wasn’t as seamless as the first. I first announced it in 2015, right off the back of Aquarius. For whatever business reasons, it didn’t come out for the next three years. With that process of delaying the album, I felt really deflated as a creative. I was frustrated and helpless. I was over it and felt jaded.”

Tinashe Throws Shade At Ex-Label After “Nasty” Chart Success

by

Tinashe is having a moment. The singer has been dropping acclaimed albums for over a decade, but her latest single, “Nasty,” has exploded. It’s spread like wildfire on TikTok, and recently cracked the Billboard Hot 100. This marks the first time Tinashe has landed a pop hit as a solo artist, and to make things even better, she managed to do it as an independent artist. “Nasty” was released through the Tinashe Music label. She’s thrilled by the song’s success and the reaction of her former label.

Tinashe, who left RCA Records in 2019, told TMZ that her ex-label is “gagging” over the success of her new single. “Nasty” has continued to gain traction since its release in April. This is not the first time Tinashe has thrown shade at RCA Records, either. During a 2023 appearance on the Zach Sang Show, the R&B singer claimed she was forced to do collabs against her will. To make matters worse, they were often with artists who were over the hill, like R. Kelly. “I literally block out that R. Kelly song from my mind,” she told the host. “I forget that it even exists. That is so embarrassing. That is so unreal that I even have a song with R. Kelly. That’s so embarrassing.”

Tinashe Claimed RCA Is “Gagging” Over Her Success

Tinashe was also reluctant to do a song with Chris Brown. “He was their biggest artist that they had on rhythmic radio at the time,” she recalled. “To me, I was like, ‘Well, this is a pop song. So, I really don’t feel like we should put Chris on it.’ That doesn’t compute to me, but I don’t know.” Tinashe’s instincts proved to be correct. Chris Brown wound up dissing her by asking IG users to “name five Tinashe songs.” The singer did admit that the independent grind has not been easy, though.

In a recent interview with Polyester, Tinashe detailed the effort that goes into releasing her own music. “I have to keep it 100 with people,” she explained. “It is not easy being independent. To find enough money to be able to fund the things you want to create, putting together a live show, or making a music video. Those things cost a lot of money and to be able to maintain that on your own is very hard.” Fortunately, the singer’s hard work has paid off. She scored her biggest hit in a decade, and she recently performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Tinashe Scores First Solo Entry On Billboard Hot 100 With “Nasty”

by

Tinashe is having a moment. A decade after her breakout single, “2 On,” the singer has broken through with the viral smash “Nasty.” It’s absolutely blown up on TikTok, and the popularity of the earworm song has carried over to the Billboard charts. “Nasty” debuted at number 90 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the first time in Tinashe’s career in which she cracked the pop charts as a solo artist. This is extremely impressive given how long the singer has been at it.

Tinashe dropped her first mixtape, In Case We Die, in 2012. She had her aforementioned breakthrough with “2 On,” which peaked at number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains the singer’s biggest hit to date. The song did feature a verse from ScHoolboy Q, however, and was later remixed by Drake. “2 On” was eventually certified platinum, but it didn’t pave the way for much more radio success. Tinashe failed to have any of her singles chart over the next ten years. This, despite releasing well-received albums like Joyride (2018) and Songs for You (2019).

Tinashe Scored Her Biggest Chart Hit In A Decade

The singer is keenly aware of the rarity of scoring a hit a decade into a career. She told TIME Magazine that the success of “Nasty” has been rewarding, given how hard she’s worked on her craft. “This is what you wait and hope for,” she explained. “I’ve been grinding in the music industry for 10 years at this point. I’ve come to the place where I’ve accepted my path and I don’t really need more validation.” Despite the surprise success of the sing, Tinashe remains committed to her core fans. “I am super thankful for my core fanbase because they’ve been there from the jump,” she explained. “It’s exciting to see how it’s affecting the numbers of all my other songs too.”

The thing that separates the success of “Nasty” from “2 On,” however, is the fact that the latter is an independent release. Tinashe was signed to RCA when the first hit dropped, but now she’s releasing everything through Tinashe Music. “It’s amazing, it really validates all of my hard work,” she told the outlet. “Also taking that risk to go independent, it felt a little bit scary. I think staying true to myself and being able to make music that I love… has just propelled me to be a different human being that is much more confident. I’m so much more sure of myself and my path.”

Tinashe Is Looking For Someone To Match Her ‘Nasty’ Energy On Her New Single

by

Tinashe is teasing the next chapter of BB/Ang3l. Earlier this week, the innovative LA native announced Quantam Baby the second installment of her BB/Ang3l series. Tonight (April 12), Tinashe shared “Nasty,” her pleasantly randy new single.

Over a punchy, futuristic beat, Tinashe lays down the law to unleash the super freak — the contender must match her energy.

“Is somebody gonna match my freak / Need somebody with a good technique? Is somebody gonna match my nasty? / Pillow talking got my throat raspy,” she rap-sings on the song’s opening verse.

“This is that all summer long kinda BOP! It’s meant to make you feel sexy, confident, let loose and maybe even unleash some of that sluttiness inside you,” said Tinashe of the song in a statement.” We all need a daily reminder that we are our own muses, here’s the inspiration to embrace it.”

As is expected with Tinashe, the accompanying visual for “Nasty” features next-level choreography as she and her equally talented dancers turn up the heat in the desert.

The song and video arrive ahead of Tinashe’s Coachella performances this weekend and next.

In the meantime, you can see the video for “Nasty” above.

Tinashe is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Russ Proves He Isn’t Afraid To Get ‘Nasty’ On His New Self-Produced Song

by

Russ dropped his new single, “Nasty,” and it is an ode to exactly what the title suggests. Each verse details explicit sexual lines, as he notes that he wants to take a girl out of town.

“I’m cravin’ it everyday / Don’t need to wait for the weekend for you to call out my name / Baby, we could do this often (Often) / If those pants are botherin’ you, take them off then,” he sings in the second verse.

As for the production, which Russ also handled, the beat propels the track forward — dropping out for just a moment after the chorus before returning again.

“Yeah, I want you to get nasty, nasty / Yeah, I want you to get nasty, nasty / Yeah, I want you to get nasty / Do that thing you know I like / No one watching’, it’s just me and you, alright,” Russ adds during the chorus.

He previously shared a teaser of it for fans. “I just made something insane,” Russ says in the clip, wearing his headphones around his face. As the preview plays, Russ gets into the groove of the instrumental and is clearly happy about the song he just made.
