I found my tribe there and a magical world of incredible musicians that reinforced my belief that music across the world is truly all connected and is the soul of the universe.”

This, she claims, is evidence of the cycles that recur throughout our lives and the truth that, despite the fact that we evolve and our viewpoints shift, "who we are at a core stays the same."

After the success of her most recent singles, "Talk To Me Nice" and "Needs," Tinashe sees the BB/ANG3L album as a chance for her audience to get to know her better.
