Tinashe‘s 2014 summer anthem, ‘2 On,’ came as a signal the southern beauty had finally arrived on the music scene.  Sliding right to the top 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 (where it peaked at #24), the tune – alongside the host of other gems making a splash on her debut album ‘Aquarius’ – was building some serious buzz for the-then stageblazing newcomer who was hearing her name in mention amongst “those to watch” for the following year.

As anticipation built for her sophomore set, T shocked fans with the announcement her album – reportedly helmed by serial hitmaking producers Max Martin, Dr. Luke, and other well-known pop producers – would sonically abandon the very Urban Pop approach that made her inaugural release buzzworthy.

After months of teasing, delays, stops, and restarts, Tinashe cranked up fan excitement by unveiling the project’s title, ‘Joyride’, and gave them their first taste of its content, the Chris Brown-assisted ‘Player’…

She may have seen her latest album, ‘Glory,’ slip completely out of the Billboard 200 this week (after only 2 months), but, as we reported here, pop icon Britney Spears is looking to give interest in her 9th era a much-needed awakening courtesy of the Tinashe-assisted ‘Slumber Party.’

Putting to rest rumors of the ‘Super Love’ singer’s inclusion on the track earlier this week when she took to social media to lift a photo of the them together, the RCA labelmates apparently have something “very big” in store for their respective fan bases.

An epic dance off maybe?  We can only hope.  Until we get the finished product, however, you can tuck in below to hear from Spears’ mouth what can be expected from the reportedly cinematic visual:

News around Tinashe‘s sophomore album, ‘Joyride,’ would be more adequately described as a rollercoaster.

The stageblazing newcomer seemed to get things kicked off right with her Chris Brown-assisted tune, ‘Player,’ and its follow-up, ‘Superlove,’ but from the looks of charts, her offerings haven’t exactly been getting super love from music lovers.

Will another single change the tide for ‘Joyride?’ Tinashe sure hopes so.  Details inside:

Fifth Harmony are currently in the midst of a world tour, but they still have more magic on the horizon for their legion of Harmonizers.

This summer saw the quintet heat up the airwaves with ‘All In My Head (Flex).’ For the Fall, they aim to keep the pace pumping with third single ‘That’s My Girl.’

Penned by Tinashe, the track serves as the third single from the group’s sophomore album ‘7/27’ – which spurned the smash ‘Work From Home.’

To whet appetites for the song’s campaign, the ladies have unwrapped a brief but sweet teaser.

Peep it below…

Oftentimes the Pop landscape can be potently political. Indeed, it’s common-practice for acts to avoid collaborations with “rivals” and rarely acknowledge each other’s releases.

Tinashe ditches that “rulebook” with a rousing rendition of Rihanna‘s ‘Sex With Me.’

The newcomer’s cover of the ‘ANTI’ album track arrives ahead of the release of her own sophomore effort ‘Joyride.’

How did she fare with the racy cut? Listen below and let us know…
