"I'll be yours"
Tinashe's debut album is out today and it's a great example of modern, British pop/rock. There's a little bit of The Feeling in there, a little bit of Mika, some Kooks... all swirled around in a blender and polished until it sheens. I wish there were more songs like his single Zambezi, though that's a big ask because that track is literally a masterpiece. What we've got instead is a collection of potential singles with just enough individuality and charm to set them apart in the pop landscape. Tinashe's expressive voice is always at the forefront, with his unique phrasing and lyrical observations. If You Say So is the second track, a punchy, percussion driven pop song with a melody that'll lodge in your brain. It sounds a lot like something you would've heard on the first Feeling album. That's a very good thing. Whether or not Tinashe will get the radio love that he deserves remains to be seen. If he does, though, he'll be unstoppable.
