Tinashe shares new music video “Talk To Me Nice”.
Tinashe makes her return to the music scene as she drops a brand new single titled “Talk To Me Nice.” The track is produced by Nosaj Thing & Scoop DeVille, and it arrives with a music video with direction from Bradley Calder. This is the first offering off Tinashe’s forthcoming album “BB/ANG3L”, a follow-up to her previous 2021’s fifth studio effort “333“.
In a recent interview with That Grape Juice, she talked about the the single. “I have a new song coming in July. Very excited about that. It’s really soon,” she said. “So, once that new song comes out, we’re going to start the rollout into my next project, which is so exciting. I’ve been working on it for a little over maybe a year and a half now. So, it’s been cooking. So, I’m really ready to release it to the world. And that’s always my favorite time is right before a song drops, because…just that excitement and anticipation is just top tier. So yeah, July is when I’ll start rolling out music. New music is coming very soon. So, thanks for everyone’s patience.
And in terms of sound, there’s no artist collaborations on this new project. It’s all me. But in terms of who’s been producing it, I’ve been working a lot with an artist called MachineDrum, who’s really amazing.
He’s kind of more in the electronic, almost techno space, which is cool and very fresh. I like that he was willing to take a risk. So, with this music, I did a lot of genre combining. I love to be able to play with different elements from different genres. And he really brought an electronic side that I loved in the production. And then I balanced that with a lot of R&B melodies and vocals. So, I hope everyone really likes it.”
“‘Talk To Me Nice’ is an exploration of identity within the genre,” says Tinashe.” As someone who has constantly felt drawn to create in the grey areas between genres, I have found that I feel most myself there. Furthermore, it explores the feeling of being on the edge of a relationship and looking at it with scepticism, self-preservation, and self-confidence.”
“[I] wanted to show the act of shedding an old skin, a previous version of myself, in a literal way. I always love to evolve and experiment as an artist in new unconventional ways for each album; and as I enter a new era creatively I felt inspired to peel back a layer and get to the raw, unfiltered core of who I am.”
