Do you have any tea on the new Tinie Tempah song she's featured on? Like when will it be out and stuff.
Her team need to release No Contest Perfect mix of her old R&B sound and the mainstream sound.
This album is still being held hostage I see
No I don't have any but will be out soon...No Contest? hmmm i don't see them releasing No contest as a single but u never know if y'all push for it (when joyride comes out) u could get music video I wish she hadn't shelved the a video for ride of your life video Anyway she has some more features coming down the pipeline Also that GQ shoot with her and Travis should be out soon.

The Company video is great but based on Twitter the same three issues keep coming back up that everyone can tell is holding her back:
1. Her team
2. Her style
3. Her singles
This video should have been out in October/November instead of hoping for Slumber Party to magically smash instead. On top of cancelling the radio ad dates it just seems strange releasing this now over anything else. The video will bring some attention for awhile but I expect another couple weeks of silence after this unless she drops another video or finally starts teasing Joyride again.
The moves are good but visually she doesn't stand out too much; her styling never has any punch to it. She really needs someone who's going to push her looks to the next level because they're usually nothing memorable.
Trying to go pop too soon was also a big problem. She had potential to really establish an urban fan base with 2 On but really killed that momentum trying to crossover so quickly. She had plenty of potential urban that will remain album cuts while the pop efforts aren't sticking to anyone at all. It's going to be so hard stanning her this year if none of these things change soon
I def think that 1 thru 3 have left her in a stuck position but u forgot number 4 her label without proper backing really nothing is going to move even if she gets the right song...I have said to many people the label and Tinashe's team didn't take the time to bulid her urban base after 2on and going with pretend was a bad move point blank and the company vid was done last min before Christmas break i believe yeah it was def last min.

This may sound weird but in terms of styling I've always had an issue with her hair. I was so thankful when she ditched the blonde but it's still just... there. And I almost feels like it dampens all of her looks. I agree with everything else you said, too.

The Ride of Your Life video got shelved?! Her career is highkey in shambles but I'm glad she's trying to stay optimistic and keep putting content out despite all the setbacks. Wish she could at least let us know what's really going on instead of throwing out random surprises.
Ugh, this is gonna be a long year. I fear a 3rd lead single is coming in the spring at this rate
Company is #4 trending on YouTube right now with 444,372 views in less than 24 hours. Amazing news and hopefully the new ATRL ushers in a new era for her.
If I was RCA:
- Push Company as an urban and rhythmic single with accompanying radio tour
- Perform it on Fallon
- Announce Joyride release date + album cover in March
- Tinashe x Kehlani song as Joyride lead single, released a week after the album announcement
- Joyride release in the middle of May
- Tinashe and Kehlani perform on Ellen and at the BBMAs
- Joyride second single tailored for the summer time
- Book the VMA stage
Apparently Joyride (feat. Travis Scott) could possibly be the next single plus they have a GQ magazine photoshoot done and ready to be released soon.
I just really hope that this album comes out. Record labels are so damn stuck in the past that they still refuse to understand that albums don't sell anymore and delaying albums for a hit does more harm than good. Even if she gets dropped by RCA, that would be better IMO. Another and better label can take her under their wing instead of RCA wasting her and everyone else's time and acting like complete b******s in the process.

I'm convinced joyride is the lead. Or will atleast be one of the singles released.
She's back in the studio, i'm pretty sure she was working with calvin.... idk I could be wrong but metro, mike will, diplo etc weren't in LA and she usually posts snaps with them. Then again it could be with max martin
Wouldn't be surprised if a 3rd lead single is coming at this point. They let Superlove die quicker than they gave Player a chance to live
The worst thing about this era is that aside from being more crossover/uptempo focused, we truly don't know much since she first announced it. And I don't even know how RCA will handle this once it finally drops. The only songs truly confirmed after all this are No Contest, Stay the Night and probably Superlove
As this era of ATRL comes to a close, Company has over 4 million views on Youtube, eventually passing Party Favors. Its trying to catch up to Superlove on Spotify so I'm hoping for good news in the coming weeks as I think this ride is back on track. But the downside is her manager is clearly going nowhere since she was out celebrating his birthday.
Stanning her is so stressful, to think Energy is almost a year old and its still only on Soundcloud Maybe she'll reveal more information about Joyride on her birthday?
Perfect mix of her old R&B sound and the mainstream sound.
