Tinashe Teases New Music Project On Social Media

Is the '2 On' singer's second album finally coming?

Monday, January 8, 2018 - 12:46

It's time for new Tinashe.

The insanely talented and wildly underrated singer has been working on the follow-up to her debut ever since it dropped in 2014, releasing two mixtapes and a handful of singles in between.

Now it seems like 2018 is the year we have all been waiting for as she launched a new era last night, posting a mysterious video teasing new music.

Ayy, ayy, ayy
Uh, ayy what

I don't need the lovin'. nope
So don't make this somethin'
See, I'm nothin' like a girlfriend, no
I'm not like someone I'm supposed to be
And I just want some company, company
And I just need some company, company
I just need some company, company
I just need some company, company

Hey, yeah, shout out to my booty
I'm straight up with this one boy, I know it
I call it when I stop feelin' alone
I want it and sometimes, see, I don't

I don't need no problems with nobody
I know how to get that, unfollow me
I just need a moment, fuck and leave
You could say you had it all, no strings

I don't need the lovin'.
Nope
So don't make this something
See
I'm nothin' like a girlfriend,
No
I'm not like someone I'm supposed to be
And I just want some company, company
And I just need some company, company
I just need some company, company
I just need some company, company

Companions, but we keep it even lower
I never ever been the type to ever just show up
And you can't ever be the type of guy to just show up
Treat it like a meet and greet and then we go up

I don't need no problems with nobody
I know how to get that, unfollow me
I just need a moment, fuck and leave
You could say you had it all, no strings

Had it all
You could say you had it all
You could say you had it all
You could say you had it all
You could say you had it all
You could say you had it all
You could say you had it all
All babe
You're just my little side thing
Just a little sweet fling
Baby you don't have to buy things
I just want the high, supply me

I don't need the lovin'. nope
So don't make this somethin'
See, I'm nothin' like a girlfriend, no
I'm not like someone I'm supposed to be
And I just want some company, company
And I just need some company, company
I just need some company, company
I just need some company, company

Da, da, da, I just need
I just need some company, company
I just need some company

The glitchy video shows stacked up televisions on static, flashing new visuals of the 'All My Friends' star in the shape of a crucifix.

The caption seemingly reveals a lyric from a new song, saying "If my life was like a movie I’d need 50 sequels." What does it all mean?!

After the glossy videos for 'Flame' and 'Superlove', it seems like Tinashe is going back to her mixtape roots of mystery.

Is it the album? Another mixtape? At this point, we have no idea what to expect but the trailer has made us very excited for new music nonetheless.

Aquarius is one of the finest R&B albums of the decade - not to mention most impressive debuts - and we have (impatiently) anticipated another official release that meets her potential.

Let's hope this comes sooner rather than later...

I think I see confetti from this potion
Pillow fights and feathers, overdosin'
Smells like a cologne and candy lotion
Like a slumber party

Sheets all on the floor just like an ocean
Building up your fortress, like a mountain
Neighbors say we're causing a commotion
Like a slumber party

No, n-no, no, you and I, I, I
We ain't gonna sleep tonigh-igh-ight
Oh baby, no, n-no, no, you and I, I, I
We ain't gonna sleep tonight

'Cause we got them candles hanging
Hanging from the ceiling low
We use our bodies to make our own videos
Put on our music that makes us go fucking crazy, go
Go crazy, go, like a slumber party

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Like a slumber party
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Like a slumber party

Let's fill up this clawfoot bath with bubbles
Loving me so hard, it's causing trouble
If there's seven minutes in heaven, make it double, triple (ooh)
Like a slumber party

No, n-no, no, you and I, I, I (I, I, I)
We ain't gonna sleep tonigh-igh-ight (nigh-igh-ight)
Oh baby, no, n-no, no, you and I, I, I (I, I, I)
We ain't gonna sleep tonight (uh, yeah)

'Cause we got them candles hanging
Hanging from the ceiling low
We use our bodies to make our own videos
Put on our music that makes us go fucking crazy, go
Go crazy, go (yeah), like a slumber party

We got them candles hanging
Hanging from the ceiling low
We use our bodies to make our own videos
Put on our music that makes us go fucking crazy, go
(Crazy, go) Go crazy, go, (ohh), like a slumber party

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) I go fucking crazy
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Like a slumber party
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Like a slumber party, yeah (mmh)

Like a slumber party (hey)
No, n-no, no, you and I, I, I (I, I, I)
We ain't gonna sleep tonight
Like a slumber party

We got them candles hanging
Hanging from the ceiling low
We use our bodies to make our own videos (our own videos)
Put on our music that makes us go fucking crazy, go (so crazy)
Go crazy, go, (uh), like a slumber party

We got them candles hanging
Hanging from the ceiling low
We use our bodies to make our own videos (we use our bodies to make our own videos)
Put on our music that makes us go fucking crazy, go (put on our music that makes us go fucking crazy, go)
(Go crazy, yeah) Go crazy, go, like a slumber party (Slumber party)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Like a slumber party
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) I go crazy for you
(And I like it) Like a slumber party
