#NEWMUSIC: TINASHA – “MELATONIN”
Today, Multi-platinum selling singer, songwriter, producer and DJ Tinashe, releases her new single “Melatonin” – listen HERE. Produced by Zack Sekoff, nightfeelings and Ricky Reed, the EDM-driven track blends intercutting beats with a hypnotic, pulsing energy. “Melatonin” is the latest single from Tinashe’s upcoming album, Popstar, coming September 25th – Pre-order HERE.
The experimental sound of “Melatonin” is brought to life in the accompanying music video – watch HERE. Directed by 91 Rules (Kelela, Destroy Lonely), the visual is a celebration of dance, spotlighting dancers across a range of styles, including ballet, hip-hop, and ballroom.Throughout the video, Tinashe commands the screen in a series of striking, avant-garde looks that complement the track’s bold creative vision.
“Melatonin” is the latest track revealed on Tinashe’s highly anticipated Popstar album out September 25th, pre-order HERE. With Popstar, Tinashe immerses her fans into her current era: one filled with defiant and unapologetic anthems, paired with high-energy, choreography filled visuals to match that continue to show off her innate ability to flawlessly blend genres and pave her own path.
The album will also feature previously released singles “Crash Out” and “Too Easy,” which was received to widespread critical praise from the likes of Rolling Stone who included the track in Songs You Need to Know, declaring it a “…swaggering single…” while Billboard proclaimed the “clubby pop track…[is] coated in confidence” with Stereogum adding “…it’s good as hell.”
In celebration of the album, Tinashe recently announced three headlining shows this fall in Chicago, Brooklyn and Los Angeles. Pre-sale tickets sold out almost immediately, making it her fastest-selling pre-sale to date and general on-sale tickets also sold out shortly after. These shows will see Tinashe perform Popstar on stage for the first time.
These releases come off Tinashe’s back to back #1 charting hits with “No Broke Boys” with Disco Lines and “Nasty.” “No Broke Boys” with Disco Lines hit number 1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs and remained for several weeks. The track was nominated at this year’s BRIT awards for “International Song of the Year,” at the 2026 American Music Awards for Social Song of the Year and won Dance Song of the Year at the 2026 iHeart Radio Music Awards. The song originally appeared on her album, Quantum Baby, which also featured her #1 hit single “Nasty.” “Nasty” propelled to new heights and upon release, was lauded as the song of summer by many in 2024.

#NEWMUSIC: TINASHE RELEASES NEW ALBUM “POPSTAR”
Today, Multi-platinum selling singer, songwriter, producer and DJ Tinashe announces her 8th studio album, Popstar set for release September 25th – pre-order HERE. With Popstar Tinashe immerses her fans into her current era: one filled with defiant and unapologetic anthems, paired with high-energy, choreography filled visuals to match that continue to show off her innate ability to flawlessly blend genres and pave her own path.
To coincide with the announcement, she shares a new single and music video for “Crash Out” – listen HERE/ Watch HERE. Produced by Couros, the single fuses snapping beats with Tinashe’s relaxed vocals to create an irresistible listen as she sings, “I’m about to lose it, but I don’t really care no more.” The dance-heavy accompanying music video is directed by 91 Rules (Kelela, Destroy Lonely), with creative direction from Tinashe.
“Crash Out” follows the release of “Too Easy,” both of which will appear on the highly anticipated Popstar album. “Too Easy” received widespread critical praise from the likes of Rolling Stone who included the track in Songs You Need to Know, declaring it a “…swaggering single…” while Billboard proclaimed the “clubby pop track…[is] coated in confidence” with Stereogum adding “…it’s good as hell.” The accompanying music video depicts Tinashe being recreated as a clone of herself to become the ultimate ‘popstar’ – watch HERE.

#NEWMUSIC: TINASHE – “ALL HANDS ON DECK”
This is exactly what we’ve been raving about all this time! Up and coming R&B Star Tinashe took over our Airwaves with Nick Jonas on the Jealous Remix and now it’s about time you got to know her real well. The Video for All Hands on Deck has just and your minds will be blown at the amazing Choreography on stacked Freight Cars. The Track is much in the same vein as her 2 On, so if you enjoyed that, you will love this. This certainly makes us forget some rather forgettable Tracks coming out of the Genre of late…
See the Video:
Let’s take it back to the Winter when we met Tinashe here.

#SPOTTED: TINASHE IN TORONTO FOR “AQUARIUS” TOUR
21-year-old Los Angeles-based R&B sensation Tinashe still might be a tad bit on the obscure to the Mainstream, but if the buzz surrounding her is any indication of what’s to come, don’t tell us we didn’t tell you so!
Just having released her debut Album Aquarius in 2014, Critics from TIME to Billboard all are hailing her Platinum-selling Single 2 On among the year’s best. A Duet Remix of Nick Jonas’ Jealous also has helped her gain some exposure of late.
Best described as a hybrid Alternative-R&B, Tinashe‘s sound is unlike anything we’ve heard, but to see her finally energetic performance on-stage before a packed house at Tattoo Rock Parlour was an absolute pleasure. To say she has a commanding presence would be an understatement. It is only a matter of time before she translates that to an arena-sized Audience. Fans waited patiently, although tested certainly, through an extended DJ Set before Tinashe finally arrived on-stage a belated 11:40 PM.
We had the pleasure of meeting Tinashe who was all smiles and hugs before her show. Tonight was the second time this year she’s been in the City, after performing alongside Drake at the OVO Festival this Summer.
