Tinashe Jorgensen Kachingwe (;[1] born February 6, 1993), known mononymously as Tinashe, is an American singer, songwriter, dancer and actress.[2] Born in Lexington, Kentucky, Tinashe moved to Pasadena, California as a child, where she pursued work in entertainment. Her notable roles include a motion-capture performance in the animated film The Polar Express (2004), Robin Wheeler in the Cartoon Network television series Out of Jimmy's Head (2007–2008), and a recurring role in the CBS series Two and a Half Men (2008–2009). From 2007 to 2011, she was a member of the girl group the Stunners. After they disbanded, Tinashe released her first musical project, the alternative R&B-styled mixtape In Case We Die (2012) to positive critical reception, and signed with RCA Records shortly after. Her second and third mixtapes, Reverie (2012) and Black Water (2013), received further praise.

Tinashe emerged into mainstream success with her 2014 debut major label single, "2 On" (featuring Schoolboy Q). The song peaked at number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 and served as the lead single for her debut studio album Aquarius (2014), which was met with moderate critical and commercial reception. In 2015, she guest appeared alongside Chance the Rapper on Snakehips' single "All My Friends"—which peaked within the top ten of Australian, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom music charts—and appeared on Britney Spears' single "Slumber Party"—which topped Billboards Dance Club Songs chart. Her second and third studio albums, Nightride (2016) and Joyride (2018), both peaked within the top ten of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.

Following her departure from RCA, Tinashe released three albums—Songs for You (2019), 333 (2021) and BB/Ang3l (2023)—independently to continued praise. Her 2024 single, "Nasty", became her first Billboard Hot 100 entry as a lead artist in a decade, as well as her first solo song to enter the chart; it preceded her seventh album, Quantum Baby (2024).[3]

Life and career

1993–2006: Early life

Tinashe Jorgensen Kachingwe was born on February 6, 1993, in Lexington, Kentucky, and is the eldest child of college professors Michael and Aimie Kachingwe. Her father is a professor who teaches acting at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona and a first-generation Zimbabwean immigrant of Shona descent, while her mother, who is of Danish, Norwegian, and Irish descent, teaches physical therapy at California State University, Northridge. Her parents met each other on a blind date during their time as undergrads at the University of Iowa.[4] [5] Tinashe's name means "We have God (or God is with us)" in the Shona language. She has two younger brothers, Thulani and Kudzai.[6] As a child, Tinashe lived in DeKalb, Illinois. She and her family moved to Los Angeles, California when she was eight years old.[7] She attended Crescenta Valley High School for a year before finishing early to pursue a career in music full-time.[8] During high school, she faced bullying from her peers.[9] [10] She began studying ballet, tap, and jazz dancing at the age of 4, and continued to compete in various styles as a part of a dance company until she was 18.[11]

2007–2011: The Stunners and acting roles

See main article: The Stunners. Tinashe scored roles in a number of TV shows, movies, and children's videos in the 2000s, including the movies Cora Unashamed (2000), Call Me Claus (2001), Masked and Anonymous (2003), and two TV series: Rocket Power (2004) and (2007). These led to a regular role in the Cartoon Network TV series Out of Jimmy's Head in 2007–2008 and a recurring role on Two and a Half Men in 2008–2009.[12] Although she was uncredited in the poorly received Masked and Anonymous, Roger Ebert observed at the film's 2003 Sundance Film Festival premiere "the one performer in the movie whose performance actually was applauded; that was a young black girl named Tinashe Kachingwe, who sings 'The Times They Are A-Changin'' with such sweetness and conviction that she is like a master class." He concluded his review of the movie: "If I had been asked to serve as consultant on this picture, my advice would have amounted to three words: more Tinashe Kachingwe."[13]

In 2007, Tinashe joined girl group the Stunners, founded by Vitamin C. Her bandmates were friends Marisol Esparza, Allie Gonino, Hayley Kiyoko, and Kelsey Sanders.[14] Six months after their formation, the group signed with Columbia Records, and later signed a production deal with Lionsgate Entertainment for scripted television show for MTV.[15] On March 18, 2009, they released a single and video, "Bubblegum". In October, the group released a five-song EP, influenced by artists such as Madonna, Gwen Stefani, and Rihanna.[16] The music video for their promo single, "We Got It", was released on February 22, 2010,[17] and they performed the song on The Today Show[18] and The Wendy Williams Show.[17] [19] After signing with Universal Republic Records[17] in 2010 they released a single, "Dancin' Around the Truth".[20] The music video premiered on June 2, 2010, just before the group was announced as an opening act on Justin Bieber's My World Tour.[21]

After the Bieber tour the Stunners returned to the recording studio, but disbanded in 2011, and Tinashe began pursuing a solo career.[22] After the Stunners disbanded, Tinashe "bought a bunch of equipment, a camera, and microphones", and began to teach herself how to record and mix music. She wrote and recorded songs in her room studio. She produced beats with Logic Pro, and also filmed and edited her own music videos with Pro Tools and Final Cut Pro. Tinashe cites YouTube as her "teacher".[23]

On May 3, 2011, Tinashe gave her first televised solo performance during a DodgersCubs game, singing "God Bless America".[24] [25] On June 24, 2011, Tinashe released her first solo music video, a cover of Lil Wayne's single "How to Love". The song was later released as a free digital download via Tinashe's official website.[26] [27] Following the video's release, Tinashe confirmed she had officially been released from her recording contract with Universal Republic.[28] Tinashe was featured on the dance single "Artificial People" by OFM, released on September 12, 2011.[29] On November 25, 2011, Tinashe released the music video for "Can't Say No", her first original solo song.[30] The track samples Britney Spears's song "Blur" from her sixth studio album, Circus.[31] The song was released for download on November 28, 2011.[32]

2012–2014: Independent mixtapes, record deal and Aquarius

In Case We Die, Tinashe's debut solo mixtape, was released in February 2012, recorded in her home studio.[33] The mixtape spawned four singles, the first being promotional song, "Chainless", released to iTunes on December 19, 2011.[34] "My High" was released for streaming on her official website.[35] The music video for single "This Feeling" directed by Cole Walliser was released on May 1, 2012, to Global Grind.[36] [37] The mixtape's final single, Boss, was released August 20, 2012, after the song was featured in an episode of the VH1 series Single Ladies. The music video for the song was self-directed.[38] [39] [40] The mixtape was received positively by the blogosphere.[41]

On July 13, 2012, Tinashe announced that she had signed with RCA Records.[42] Following the signing, her second mixtape, Reverie, was released on September 6, 2012, through her official website.[43] The mixtape released three singles: the first "Stargazing", released on August 21, 2012; Denver Sean of LoveBScott.com noted "BMarz of The Hills Club 's flawless production" of the first single, saying "Stargazing, takes a similar approach to, Noah "40″ Shebib's productions, but it's as if he strapped one to a rocket and shot it into the galaxy."[44] the second, "Ecstasy", released on December 18, 2012; and the final, "Who Am I Working For?", released on March 12, 2013.[45] Upon its release, reviews for Reverie were generally positive.[46]

From August to November 2012, a series of remixes of songs from Tinashe's two mixtapes leaked online to critical acclaim.[47] [48] [49] [50] On November 26, 2013, Tinashe released her third mixtape, Black Water. The mixtape was composed of thirteen tracks produced by Dev Hynes, Boi-1da, Ryan Hemsworth, and Tinashe herself. The single "Vulnerable", which features rapper Travis Scott, was declared a "Must-Hear Pop Song of the Week" by MTV's Buzzworthy on November 26, 2013.[51]

Tinashe worked on her debut studio album in 2014.[52] Recording took place in Los Angeles, London, Atlanta, New York, and Toronto.[53] Tinashe worked with several producers, including Clams Casino, Ryan Hemsworth,[54] Stuart Matthewman, DJ Mustard, T-Minus, Mike Will Made It, Boi-1da, Fisticuffs, Best Kept Secret, Ritz Reynolds and London on the track.[55] On January 13, 2014, Tinashe released her first single from her debut album, "2 On".[56] The song features American rapper Schoolboy Q, and was produced by DJ Mustard.[57] [58] The song entered the US Billboard Hot 100 chart at number 89, and has since peaked at number 24.[59]

On June 29, 2014, Tinashe made her national television debut, performing her single "2 On" at the BET Awards pre-show. That same day, she also announced that her anticipated debut album, Aquarius, would be officially released on October 7, 2014.[60] [61] [62] Speaking about the theme of the album, Tinashe said: "It combines the essence of all my previous work. I've stayed true to who I am. Obviously, there's some progression as I've grown as an artist, and I'm influenced by new things and what not. I think my fans will be really happy with it. I think it really embodies who I am and where I am creatively right now".[63] The second single, "Pretend" featuring ASAP Rocky, was released on August 22, 2014.[64] "Aquarius" debuted at number 17 on Billboard 200 with 18,800 copies sold in its first week.

"All Hands on Deck" became the last single off of Aquarius. Although the single failed to crack the Billboard Hot 100 charts, the music video created much buzz online by peers and fans for its choreography and visuals. Tinashe kicked the year off with a visual bang too, appearing on the cover of the Jan 15 issue of V Magazine.[65]

2015–2017: Nightride, Joyride and touring

In late January 2015, Tinashe was reported working with writers and producers from Prescription Songs (Cirkut, Ammo, Rock City, Jakob Kasher, Chloe Angelides), Max Martin[66] and Taylor Parks on her second studio album.[67] [68] On March 16, 2015, Tinashe released a seven-song mixtape entitled Amethyst for free download. The project was recorded in Tinashe's bedroom during her Christmas vacation, and features production from Ryan Hemsworth, Iamsu!, DJ Dahi, Smash David, Ritz Reynolds, Nez & Rio and Mae N. Maejor.[69] In between time, Tinashe invested in several self-directed music videos from her album Aquarius such as "Aquarius", "Bated Breath", "Cold Sweat", and "Bet/Feels Like Vegas" with no label support.[70]

On September 2, 2015, Tinashe released a teaser for her then second studio album Joyride on YouTube. She explained to Billboard the meaning behind the title: "I always had it in the back of my head, but it started to become more and more relevant to my current state of my career. With all this traveling I've done this past year and everything I've gone through, it just really feels like an adventure, a journey, a ride", and when asked why she feels she isn't being heard she stated, "I feel like I've been working really hard this year at developing a fan base, a touring base. I'm continuing to grow, but you always feel like you're a little bit under appreciated, undervalued. Especially for me, it's exciting to have new music and to give people a chance to rediscover me again."[71]

On September 9, Tinashe leaked the buzz single called "Party Favors" featuring rapper Young Thug as a way to get the ball rolling from her label.

Artistry

Musical style and influences

Tinashe's musical style has been described as R&B, pop, and alternative R&B. Tinashe said she writes her songs and is open to writing collaborations with other artists. Her writing consists of "things that are relative to me and my life; whether that's relationships I've had or relationships that people I know are in, because I can put myself into other people's mindstates and write from that point of view too".[137] She also likes to write about society; "different things that affect me day to day from more of a philosophical standpoint rather than just the obvious stuff."[137] Her mixtapes have been more experimental, incorporating elements of traditional R&B, electro-hop[138] and dark pop.[139]

Regarding her musical style, she is "really inspired by R&B, hip-hop, and alternative music".

Tinashe said in 2016 she feels she does not "fit into any particular genre."[140] She later said she considers herself "a pop artist who makes R&B-tinged pop music".[141] In the early stages of her career, she was often compared to and considered the successor to Ciara, whom she cites as an inspiration.[142] [143] Her style has also been compared to Janet Jackson, Aaliyah, James Blake and Mya.[144] Tinashe was inspired by the music her parents would play in the house when she was young.[145] She considers Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Sade, Christina Aguilera, James Blake, the xx, and SBTRKT as significant influences on her.[137] [145] [146] [147]

Personal life

In 2016, Tinashe resided with her family in La Crescenta, a suburb 20 miles north of Los Angeles.[148] She was in a relationship with Australian basketball player Ben Simmons from November 2017 to May 2018.[149] In 2020, she said that she identifies as bisexual.[150]
