Tinashe's career has turn an unexpected turn that reminds me a lot of Kat DeLuna's career in terms of success.
Both their debut singles on a major label peaked top 30
Both of their debut singles were produced by trendy producers of the moment (DJ Mustard and RedOne)
Their lead singles from their their first and second era both featured prominent male artists
Tinashe's singles ever since then have failed to significantly impact the hot 100 just like Kat Deluna's.
Kat Deluna has delayed her sophomore release again and again again making fans question if it will even be released. Tinashe has delayed Joyride countless times.
Kat Deluna accused JLO, an established artist of stealing her music. Tinashe also accused JLo of stealing Tinashe's song "I Luh Ya Papi"
Tinashe has failed to follow up with her debut single and seems confused as to what direction she should take her music. Kat Deluna also released a mish mash of singles with different styles making it hard to figure out her identity as an artist.
Kat DeLuna was dropped from Epic, Tinashe seems close to being dropped by RCA due to failing music.
FInally:
Both of these single covers are from the second singles from their sophomore eras both images contain statement bracelets. Both girls are in tank tops. the fonts are extremely similar stylistically. The names are set in front of their black hair. the color pallet is identical and both images are held together by a sassy attitude driven smoldering look. The hands against the head in both images add to the overall sexiness...
It may be hard to swallow, but their career trajectories have been SO SIMILAR. I hope Tinashe can achieve some success soon
what a classic !
