Tinashe Releases Lyric Video For 'Pretend' [WATCH]

Tinashe's debut album drops next month and with radio success of her single "2 On," the Los Angeles songstress hopes to keep the momentum going with her second release "Pretend" featuring A$AP Rocky.

Toward the end of August, Tinashe revealed the tracklist from her debut and premiered her second single. She recently performed "Pretend" at a showcase at Paris' La Maroquinerie.

Today, she released a lyric video for the track.

Check out the lyric video below.

According to HotNewHipHop, the album is set to feature production from Boi 1da and Stargate.

And if you're wondering what to expect, Tinashe described her sound during a recent interview with USA Today:

"My music is definitely rooted in a place of R&B, but it's an interesting take on it, because it has a lot of influence from different genres, from hip-hop to alternative to electronic," she explained. "I don't like to be stuck in the 'R&B box.'"

The album will be Tinashe's first major release since parting ways with girl group The Stunners.

"When I was in the group I never really had the opportunity to reach inside and express musically how I really feel. Plus, my music is a lot 'cooler' in my opinion than the music I was writing before for the pop group," Tinashe told Convozine when asked how she felt about going solo.
