A bad Kaytranada collaboration doesn’t exist. And the prolific DJ and producer has proven that with his star-studded albums 99.9% and Bubba. Last night (April 21), Kaytranada brought out several guests who have given his songs the magic touch over the years.

Early in the set, HER joined Kaytranada in a performance of their collaboration, “Intimidated.”

Shortly after, Tinashe arrived to the stage to perform “The Worst In Me” from Kaytranada’s 2019 album, Bubba. During this performance, Tinashe displayed her signature silky, futuristic vocals, while grooving flawlessly to the beat.

In another surprise, Kaytranada and Anderson. Paak threw it all the way back to 2016 for a performance of “Glowed Up” from 99.9%. As Anderson says on the song’s opening line, this magical pairing between him and Kaytranada proves that there still ain’t a damn thing you can tell them.

This comprehensive set proved that Kaytranada doesn’t miss, and in the coming weeks, he’ll have even more hits in his arsenal.

Next month, Kaytranada and Aminé will release a collaborative album called Kaytraminé.

In the meantime, you can see some clips from the performance above.

Kaytraminé is out 5/12 via CLBN and Kaytranada Music.

Tinashe Channels Kobe Bryant In Courtside Pics

by

Tinashe looks radiant in a new Instagram post. The singer recently turned 30, but you’d never know it looking at the pictures. To commemorate the new decade of life, Nashe posed topless on a beach. She captioned the post “dirty, flirty, and thriving,” like a reference to famed romantic comedy movie 13 Going On 30. In the film, the main character wishes to be “30, flirty, and thriving.” The pictures caused a stir on the internet, and many of her celebrity friends posted their messages of love in the comments.

Tinashe is a multifaceted artist. She is well-known for her abilities as a singer, songwriter, and actress. However, she gained early recognition as a child actor before she transitioned to her successful music career. Nashe is renowned for her soulful vocals and versatile musical style. While primarily a pop artist, she incorporates R&B and hip-hop influences. She also has an energetic and captivating stage presence, often displaying her skills as a trained dancer in her performances. Tinashe has released multiple well-received albums and EPs, and has collaborated with other esteemed artists in the music industry. Most recently, she featured along with Offset on the Calvin Harris-led single “New To You” from his album Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2.

Tinashe Inspired By The Late Legend

In her new post, Tinashe channels the late NBA legend, Kobe Bryant. In the photo, she poses courtside in a Lakers jacket. The singer is well known for her fashion sense, and this post is no exception. As always, Nashe looks styled to perfection at the game. The singer is decked out in a denim shirt, leather pants, and high heels. Never one to forget the small details, she accessorized her outfit with several gold chains and big hoop earrings. Nashe flashed a smile for the picture, posting it with the caption, “this sh*t too easy like a free throw.”

Tinashe is one of the hardest-working performers around. However, she has many detractors. Many of them say that she is “corny.” Nashe spoke out against them in an interview last year, saying that it was lazy to call her that. In other words, she wants her haters to come up with some better insults. Say what you will about her, but it’s clear that Tinashe is unbothered by the hate.

Tinashe Goes Topless On The Beach For 30th Birthday

by

For nearly two decades, Tinashe’s been grinding through the entertainment industry. It began when she appeared in Polar Express with Tom Hanks in 2004. Since then, she had brief stints as a member of a girl group, expanded into her solo career, and later took off as a celebrated artist in her own life. However, she’s continued to prove that she’s one of the hardest-working women in the music industry since then, especially after embarking on a journey as an independent artist.

Though she’s two years removed from her last studio album, 333, she’s continued on a relentless grind in the past year. She joined Flume on tour and delivered several records throughout the year, including the deluxe edition of her 2021 project. Then, she joined Snakehips on “Who’s Gonna Love You” after linking up with Calvin Harris and Offset on “New To You.” Needless to say, she’s been working hard and certainly deserves to celebrate the fruits of her label.

Happy Birthday, Tinashe!

Tinashe caught everyone’s attention this week when she celebrated her birthday on February 6th. The singer reached a huge milestone as she officially turned 30 years old. The singer dropped a spicy picture of herself on a beach with her hands covering her bare breasts. Tinashe’s rocking a neon green bikini bottom and matching sunglasses as she grins from ear to ear. Elsewhere, Tinashe highlighted her birthday dinner, a pic with her family and friends, and a hilarious clip where she’s performing karaoke. 

The timeline undoubtedly appreciated the thirst trap-esque post. She captioned the post, “Dirty, flirty and thriving,” along with a blue heart emoji and a birthday cake. Moreover, there are plenty of individuals who appreciate her. Rubi Rose, Kaytranada, and Jojo slid in the comments to wish her a happy birthday. Meanwhile, Hitmaka hinted that the two have some music sitting in the vault, writing, “Hbd Nashe. Let’s give ‘em what they want.” At 30, Tinashe’s undoubtedly accomplished more than most would in their lifetimes and looks great at the same time.

Following a guilty verdict for Tory Lanez for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in 2020, several fans have shown their support. As Megan was met with online vitriol over the course of the past two years, her supporters are celebrating a feat of justice. Also showing support are several of her peers and fellow musicians in the industry.

Fellow Houston rapper Monaleo took to Twitter to express her gratitude as Megan received justice, saying, “This is major for her and for every other black women who has been taunted for speaking up about abuse and violence against them.”

She followed up, urging people to “Believe black women the FIRST time around.”

Sharing a similar sentiment was singer Tinashe, who said, “Sending love and healing to
@theestallion #ProtectBlackWomen”

Singer and Glass Onion star Janelle Monáe also took time to send Megan “the (((biggest hug))) (((love))) & (((peace)))”

Rapper Baby Tate also was happy to hear the verdict, and expressed her wishes for Megan to find the peace she deserves.

“I can’t imagine the nightmare that this past two years has been for you @theestallion and I know that this verdict won’t erase that but I pray it helps you on your journey to finding peace and healing! We love you,” she said.

Singer, songwriter, and producer Finneas, who has previously spoken of his fandom for Megan, shared a short sentiment, “Megan thee stallion forever,” following the announcement of the verdict.

Fellow Texan Bobby Sessions, who previously collaborated with Meg on the Coming 2 America soundtrack cut “I’m A King,” celebrated Lanez’s guilty verdict, noting that “Megan is God’s Favorite.”

Tinashe And Halle Bailey Perform At The NFL Season Opener

Football season is kicking off with a bang. At tonight’s NFL season opener, where the Buffalo Bills are taking on the Los Angeles Rams, Halle Bailey and Tinashe graced the stage to open with powerful musical performances.

Up first was Bailey, who performed a breathtaking rendition of “Lift Every Voice And Sing.”

Shortly after, Tinashe followed, singing “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

Both Tinashe and Bailey have been making moves in music for about 10 years, though with their new endeavors, they both feel like they’re just getting started.

“Now that I’m independent and I’ve been in the game for a decade, I’m really big on saying yes to a lot, and not overthinking things,” Tinashe said in a recent interview with W. “I’m just trying to get back to that original mindset of, we make art for fun. This is a privilege to be able to make any type of art. In my 30s, I want to have fun being a creative and a mogul. But I’m far from done with my music era. I feel like that’s still on the come up.”

Next year, Bailey is set to star in a live-action version of Disney’s The Little Mermaid, as well as a remake of The Color Purple. She is also in the studio working on music with her sister, Chloe. In an interview with Essence, Bailey revealed that while she’s looking forward to her upcoming feature films, music will always take priority in her heart.

Calvin Harris Drops ‘New To You,’ With Tinashe, Normani, And Offset

by

A week out from his upcoming album, Funk Wav Bounces, Vol. 2, Calvin Harris has dropped the R&B-focused “New To You.” On the song, which features Tinashe, Normani, and Offset, Harris delivers an live instrument-driven-beat, with seductive strings and slow-thumping kick drums, creating a romantic, cinematic feel.

Normani opens with the song’s chorus, singing, “This might be news to you / this thing might feel new to you / but if you like everything / I think you might love me, baby.”

Tinashe delivers the song’s first verse, toughening up her signature soft-tinged vocals, willing to “bet a billion that you gon’ like this / ‘Cause you never had a wild one like this / Don’t really do one night sh*t / ‘Cause one night make ’em wanna whole life it.” Midway through the verse, she switches back to her signature sound, on which she instructs her summer flame to “Stay focused on T / I’m all that he needs / And don’t ever play no games.”

Offset swoops in with an affectionate verse, detailing an immediate infatuation. “I don’t know you, but I know I f*ck with you / I think I want to fly you to Peru from Malibu.”

Harris has collaborated with all of these artists in the past — Tinashe on “Dollar Signs” from his 2014 album, Motion, Normani on “Checklist” and “Slow Down,” from a collaborative EP in 2018, and Offset on 2017’s “Slide,” which featured Frank Ocean and Migos. This is Harris’ first time collaborating with Offset without the other members of Migos, and it’s quite possible this may be the way going forward, given the recent hints at Offset leaving the group.

Check out “New To You” above.

Funk Wav Bounces, Vol. 2 is out 8/5 via Columbia Records. Pre-save it here.
