Tinashe Drops Flame Video, Reminds Men of How to Love
So and so, Tinashe just dropped her latest music video for her new single, Flame. The visual and concept are obviously different from her last efforts, alike the music videos for Company and Superlove. Also, not to forget how she's changed her hairstyle, reminding us of her early years creating rad mixtapes and her debut album, Aquarius.
While many of you may be disappointed with her creative decision towards releasing this upbeat pop song, instead of her signature alternative moody R&B songs, these are what we can learn from Tinashe: that she's an artist and she can create whatever melodies and beats she likes. And also, Flame proves her to be a versatile artist in terms of switching genres just because she's able to. Maybe not so memorable as Company or the bouncy beats of Superlove, but this is a wild decision for Tinashe.
Anyway, besides of the song itself, the music video is lit. It doesn't incorporate intricate dance moves or eye-shocking costume changes; it is just Tinashe, her lover, her feeling of being ignored, and the burning-down the house ceremony to celebrate her ditching her lover. It is simple, understandable, relatable, and I know how much girls cheering up because Tinashe just showed how in pain you are and how much boys cheering up because Tinashe is slaying...down the house. All in all, the video is enjoyable, may not fulfill your desire of Tinashe doing the splits, but there's all your imagination in it. And here's to Joyride!
