Fall may be fast approaching, but fret not because Nick Jonas is bringing the heat.

The ‘Close’ singer is the new face of Creative Recreation footwear and proves why in the scintillating campaign – unveiled today.

Ever savvy, the partnership is the latest power play by the rising star who is currently on-tour with Demi Lovato.

On rocking his ‘Rec’s on the trek, the 23-year-old said in a statement:

“I’ve been wearing some of the new collection during my tour. The shoes
are versatile for both on and off stage. I wanted to bring some of the heat from my tour to the campaign for fall with Creative Recreation.”

Tinashe is making quite the name for herself thanks to a potent potion of catchy tracks and dynamite performances.

New release ‘Superlove’ sees her excel on both fronts.

Not resting on her laurels, though, the rising star has hit the promotional trail in support of the track, which was produced by Tricky Stewart and The-Dream.

During a recent chat, she was quizzed on apparent Beyonce comparisons and offered an interesting response.

Tinashe rounds up her besties for a spot of “BaeWatch” in the video for new single ‘Superlove.’

The Tricky Stewart and Dream produced jam is the lead release from the starlet’s long-awaited sophomore album ‘Joyride.’

Due in October, the LP will reportedly feature additional production from the duo, as well as from Boi-1da, Metro Boomin, and Londoner Joel Compass.

And while folk will have to exercise patience to see if she’s delivered with the LP, no such wait is necessary for the project’s first visual.

With Tinashe‘s new single ‘SuperLove’ slowly making waves, the rising R&B star is upping her visibility.

The latest slot snagged saw her perform the US National Anthem at the Dodger’ Stadium last night.

Yesterday brought with it the nominations announcement for the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards. And while the likes of Drake and Justin Bieber are likely smiling following their nods, Nick Jonas seems to be taking his lack of acknowledgement personally.

Cop a gander of Tinashe on the cover Agolde magazine!

The ‘SuperLove’ singer is back on the press trail in support of the single and its parent album ‘Joyride.’

We imagine the 23-year-old will be lodged in the headlines for the foreseeable following the “are they/aren’t they” rumors of a relationship with hitmaker Calvin Harris.

Still, as a solid in her own right, we’re all for the volumized buzz she’s receiving.

Will it benefit her music commercially? Time will tell.

For now, check out more snaps from the edgy shoot below…

Tinashe has a hyper hustle.

Having unleashed new single ‘SuperLove’ and garnered headlines for her rumoured relationship with Calvin Harris, the rising star has paired up with Afro Beats sensation Davido.

Together, the duo are gearing up to release a duet titled ‘How Long.’

The move sees the 23-year-old embrace her African heritage musically (she’s half Zimbabwean).

No word yet on when the track will arrive, but with its video being edited as we type, a snippet has surfaced.

Take a listen below…

Tinashe‘s ‘Joyride era may not have delivered the sophomore album fans have been looking forward to yet, but that’s done little to stop her from delivering fresh music to them.

What she has baked and ready to dish up for them today? An English version of Enrique Iglesias‘Duele El Corazón.’

Her version of the number joins her latest single ‘Super Love’  which was released last week and surfaces as reports indicate that she has found a new collaborator in Calvin Harris.

Could their supposed union see her pick up a smash hit or two?

As if the summer isn’t already hot enough, July has simply been brimming and blazing with highly anticipated releases from some of pop’s heaviest hitting female artists.

Just last night alone pop princess Britney Spears and Katy Perry dropped their long-awaited new releases.  For fans of Spears, the new song, ‘Make Me,‘ came after a year-long await and followed the failed, Iggy Azalea-assisted ‘Pretty Girls.’  For #KatyCats, the tune, ‘Rise,’ follows releases found from her 2013 chart-topping set ‘Prism.’

Spears may have shot to #1 on iTunes quicker than her competitor, but Perry’s fanbase is already ‘roaring’ loud and clear as they (as of time reporting) have hoisted their leader to the digital tally’s top spot.

Yet, while the two pop princesses are getting the most buzz around their respective releases, fans of Tinashe are still moving and grooving to her Dream-produced cut ‘Superlove.‘  The song, also released last night, is getting a thumbs up from some of the same critics who can’t keep their fingers off the ‘play’ button to bump July’s other hot releases – Fergie‘s ‘M.I.L.F. $’ and Zayn‘s ‘Cruel.’

Now, with all heat coming to us at once, we must ask you – That Grape Juice faithful – who is your fave of the pack?
